well no its no alienware and I dont have direct access to anyplace that sells graphics cards. Inorder for me to find a new card I'd have to drive about 62 miles. pluss as of right now i dont have the money nor do I know what the hell works because the 450$ nVidea card i do have in my old pc I'm not sure it will work anymore since its about 4 years old AND while this pc does have expansion slots I han't know if I can even get the dam thing to work. I bought a pc that I could afford excuse me for not haveing the 8,000$ to buy the great pc's everyone seems to have now. But I feel its dumb as hell that I have to spend craploads of cash that I dont have to play one single game and besides I can't play WoW anymore because it wont run on windows vista.
oh and for that poster that said to get a xbox or ps3 i have a xbox I just enjoy playing mmorpg's on a pc a bit more than playing cookie cutter bs games. So go ahead rag on me all day I do give a rats ass anymore I'm tired about to pass out from lack of sleep so far today and am starting to dispise the gameing world. I guess I dont see how anyone could be dumb enuff to say "oh I need to spend more money more dammit" and not feel like they took a pipe up the rear port.
I expected fools to just throw some crap at me but yet good help is hard to find. anyway I'm too depressed and pissed to care about anything right now so unless you have something usefull to say don't say anything.
its not so much that its only been about 4 hours since I bought it so I could take it back but the thing is I wanted to play it granted my factory graphics system is wierd even for me cause its a intel integrated pc so I have no clue I'd use my old nvidea but I'm sure it wont work either and it was dieing which was why I got this new pc. whats frustrateing is that even after going thru the trouble of buying this new machine I still cant play the game I mean come on tell me thats not some fragernaukle bs.
ok so I just got a brand new computer spent a good chunk of change on it too. Well I decided that I'd try this game out so I buy the game. it installs just fine no problems. then I go to start it and it wont start because it cant innitialize the subsystem rendering. so I follow what the website said to do still didnt work.
SO here I sit wasteing 48 bucks and my precious time on a expensive drink coaster which it will soon become. The fact that after spending my money on a bradn new pc I am told I am still way below standard. hey I got an idea SCREW THIS GAME . I'd never sugjest playing a game where you have to be rich or have momy and daddys credit card to buy a 9 thousand dollar pc to run one dam game. total bs, and alread I can hear the spoiled little children telling me how I wasted my money on a pc...wel fit this in your head atleast I bought my pc with my money that I earnd at my JOB. so untill someone can explain to me why I sit here tired as hell after working a a night shift trying to try out a game I cant run unless I buy a 1,500$ graphics card. God I'll just play CoH/CoV and be done with it atleast it will run for me.
personally I understand the whole cross-platforming appeal but its not an easy thing to do since no system even if made by the same company(i.e. Xbox 360 and windows pc's). if companies really want to reach the console people aswell as the pc people the best thing is to do what EQ did back in the day. making a separate game for their console( Sony that is). Sure it would be fun to find a seamless way for both platformers and pc folk alike to mingle but lets face it that's the impossible journey unless every pc was made with the exact same specs. It's not so much that consoles are the problem the truth is that pc's are because no two pc's are alike where as consoles are alike in majority of ways.
I thought the idea of everquest online adventures being the PlayStation's own personal MMORPG made it that much better simply because it staid to the same basis as its pc counterpart while at the same time breaking console owners into the EQ and in some cases the MMORPG world. But companies will continue to try their best to make a MMO game cross-platform because the players keep wishing for it. But trust me on this it will be a long time before its perfected so don't expect greatness, always keep a bit of judging till you see it yourself or you'll be disappointed everytime.
I also believe that console gamers and pc gamers should stick together as gamers but not go looking for that amazing MMORPG or just any MMO to cross-platform perfectly the first time. I'm sure age of Conan will improve over time just be patient and hope for the best. The only game to cross-platform and survive the battle was Final Fantasy XI. Altho it should be noted that it didn't get there without a few hitches along the way.
One day we may see that breakthrough but till then be patient and just try to get through all the glitchy laggy screen punching hair pulling strain that some people will experience.
hey all I'm just now getting ready myself to try the 14 day trial and wont know anyone so I hope I can find friends fast.
