It won't install. It always gets to the third disc, installing \Data\Textures.pak and freezes up RIGHT at the end. My hard drive spins up and down in 1/2 second intervals or so, over and over and over. Any ideas what's up?
Yep. ...Why? If you mean multiple attempts, then yes, like 10 lol.
//EDIT: GAH! It just... keeps... going! It even loops back to the original picture with whats-his-name on it and sits there. The CD doesn't spin. CPU usage ~50-60%. WTF?! Prime, did you get any weird things like this?
//EDIT: So, I cancelled it when it was locking up. Transferred files from an Italian version I downloaded just to see if it would install (it did w/o a hitch btw), updated the game, and by some miracle it works. Ah well.
I'm stuck on that there game. You know that massive great big monster man in the ringed graveyard, about five or so levels in? The one who makes the spikes rip outta the ground and throws hurricanes at you?
I cannot beat the bugger :banghead:
I've been close, but I ran out of patience, that was 3 weeks ago, maybe I go back there soon....
Err, I don't legally own it I was considering it though, because it's such a good game As for the bad copy idea ... I downloaded it 3 different times. I have it working, though it hasn't added itself to the Add/Remove Programs menu. I guess this game is near impossible to run off images, and a handful of people have trouble getting totally legal ones to work...
I have a legal version and it runs completely bug-free. I love the game, and I am playing it slowly so as to not finish it too quick!! I love that painkiller weapon BTW- anyone notice that you can play pong with the bodies with the painkiller? Keep giving him quick shots three or four times before his body disappears and these jewels appear. I don't think they count as gold, and I can't find a reference to them anywhere, but it's fun!! You can actually pick them up and bounce them over your head...only trouble is their souls stay 7 feet above the ground if they poof at the wrong time...
I must admit I am one of those who will GOD myself if it takes tooooo long to get past one level- kinda gets a little tedious playing the same level for three weeks (like I did in Thief).
This game has great replay value. There are certain levels that are locked unless you beat the game once, and since each level is so long and detailed, you really want to play through the whole game again and get all the cards and secrets... I like this game way better than Doom 3.
The 'secrets' are really, really difficult to find/get! I'm just breezing through it right now in Daydream mode, but I plan to go on medium/hard next, and figure out those cards and a lot of the secrets.

Glad you got the game installed there entropy
