ToW 2 has been released.

Biggles · 07-22-09, 12:43 PM

Really? I thought it was still in development, because those pics really supports that theory

Oh, for the love of... why wasn't I aware of this?!

I predict it will be on my harddrive before the day is up.

Anything to note on the copy-protection (limited installs)?

@Stabiz

I demand screenshots of the hand-to-hand action!

Task Force · 07-22-09, 02:31 PM

Is there hand to hand action in TOW?

Only to come to the conclusion I needs a new graphics card. Maxed it out at 1280x960 and barely get 12-14 FPS.

Dowly, I will get some screens later, I have only tried the first mission a bit, and hand to hand is a bit optimistic in that one.

If you guys plan to get it, the strategy guide you can bundle it with is pretty cool. Lots of nerd info! (Oh, and dont get the download only, you can only download ten times and within a year)

I had 30-40 fps in 1920x1200 maxed out with forced 4x AA. It does bog down a bit from time to time though, but it sure looks good.

Meh, just backed-up the installer to 2 HDs and a DVD. There's no limit to number of installs, as far as I noticed.

Have it at medium now, 25-30 FPS. Starting to think something is wrong, pretty sure my card can do better than that.

Raptor1 · 07-23-09, 07:24 AM

I can run it on max, but it doesn't run as well as it should. I think the game just suffers from ArmA 2 syndrome.

Oh, there is hand-to-hand combat, I've seen it, will try to take a picture later.

stabiz · 07-23-09, 08:03 AM

Have you guys patched it, by the way? There are some performance optimizing in the patch.

Edit: Maybe a mod should cut this stuff out and make a topic.

NeonSamurai · 07-23-09, 12:13 PM

done

Raptor1 · 07-23-09, 12:21 PM

Great, though I believe Post #3 doesn't belong here

@stabiz - Yes, I patched it. It's completely playable, but it doesn't run as well as it should.

Task Force · 07-23-09, 03:33 PM

yes... I posted that other post here by mistake... Thought I had put it in the screenshot thread.

anyone know where to get this game.
