Yeah TA on a pentium 90 was pure hell. I can't really remeber if I ran the game in 640*480 or 320*200. I rember thinking 640*480 was really high tech stuff with a gigantic wow factor. I've played the game again in window on my current screen and it's a 4" rectangle now. Leaving the other 26" empty.

I've tested the Supreme Commander Demo in winxp and it's slightly faster than Vista. Still get a slowdown at speed *8 with a lot of units, but that's to be expected.

Back on topic.

I'm hoping for the 16th too. But a more realistic date would be the 19th. I wouldn't want to release a game just before the weekend. If anything goes wrong you can't help people. Then again the SDC is a tried and tested system so I'm not expecting any problems.

Supreme Commander is a joke. Played the demo and it is not what it's being billed to be. For those looking to buy I'd hold off till the first reviews are in.

But Its still in Feburary right Yarlen?

Any day now, they should at least be announcing when the beta is ours. Unless its pushed back to march, but lets not dwell on that.

Today is the last day of my vacation so considering how my luck has been lately I fully expect it to come out any day now starting Tomorrow.

aww nacnud... so sad, actually ill bet if they do get it out in february it will be right at the tail end of feb, youll be fine.

I just wonder, will it be a beta where you can't talk about anything to any one about what happen in it. Or will we be authorize to actually show some of it to others?

(like... recording a video and putting it on youtube?)

I'm playing a small game those day and it's a beta where you are basically authorize to do whatever you want (there must already be over 250 mods, already...) I think the videos I did of it probably did sell 40 copy more (that I can "confirm" base on my subscriber feedback (it would have been more if many of them had a credit card)).

There won't be any NDA (non-disclosure agreements), so you can take screenshots or video if you want.  You may want to hold off on any modding, however, since formats could change between beta and release.

Ok, that's good to know, I did many beta in the past and none actually worked like the other, that's why it's alway good to ask and have a clear answer.

damn...
your so inconsiderate, Ironclad.

Oh they aren't that bad, they are making the game for us after all.

quad core time is not here..... there are only a few games out that even support dual core, lol.....

the BETA will be here soon...
