437501 2006-03-12 02:22:00 Cool as. Been wanting to play this game.

forum2.egosoft.com

Not that I have any clue how to play it. The demo seems to be good at telling you WHAT you can do, but not HOW.

Apparantly you can jump in your fighter, but I can't figure out how. I just flew around places and looked at them. Veerry nice graphics.

Upon meeting the first wave of attackers, I nearly died laughing hearing their lasers. Nothing wrong with them, I just find it a highly amusing sound :)

Anyway, game looks cool, but I guess I need to spend a while reading tutorials (forum2.egosoft.com).

Athlon 64 3500, 1gb ram, 6800gs. Average I think around 25fps at max graphics, 1280x1024, 4xAA 4XAF. Not bad.

Graphics are so cool :) Going to buy this if I can work out how to play it.

437504 2006-03-12 19:17:00 Well last year I downloaded Dungeon Siege 2 demo at 1.5gb. They then released version 2 of the demo at 1gb, with same content, and bug fixes. Grrr.

Heh, in the x3 demo, if I am facing one way I get 20fps, and facing the other way I get 60fps. Big empty space is easy on the pc I guess.
