What's interesting about it? Looks like every other vid card review I've seen lately...

I wish that people doing reviews like this would put in last years card, and the year's before that as well, just so people can get a better idea of whether or not it's time to upgrade...

True..however I'm glad I saw it..it kept me from buying a WAY too expensive 9800XT..I'm gonna get the 9800Pro.

Will my TI 4200 be enough for this game?

Yup...no worries....simply set your game graphics settings according to the instructions and run about 1024x768.

flashing ground textures
black triangles everywhere
odd looking smoke

this is with 3 installs of 3.9cats... and is why UBI recommend 3.7 instead......

problem being 3.9 rock for everything else

No problems with the 3.9s here. I think Overlag just has bad luck with the Catalysts.

**Overlag** · 12-18-2003, 06:50 AM

its a KNOWN issue with the CAT's which they broke after 3.7 and its still broken with 3.10

Sounds like a crap game anyway!!!

Only coz i cant find it in the shops n im jealous

**Overlag** · 12-19-2003, 03:18 PM

www.play.com

im sure they have a US shop......

**Overlag** · 12-19-2003, 03:19 PM

btw i fixed the flashy textures on the ground by changing to 3.10 cats and using medium gfx settings instead of high

Yeah...it's a known issue with ATI cards if you try to use "Perfect" settings...go high on most htthings and you'll still have a VERY pretty game.

**Overlag** · 12-19-2003, 07:49 PM

high still has flashy textures for me, so its all on medium... its still ok i guess, but it was nice using perfect Pre 3.8
