Lost Planet PC demo out May 15

The turning sucked on the 360, along with the gameplay for the most part. Maybe they should improve that for the PC.
 
I really disliked this game on the 360. No chance I'll check out the PC demo. I'll be interested though to hear what people have to say about the PC version and DX10. Hopefully Lost Planet fans will enjoy it.

it won't at current state of the driver, Nvidia still hasn't delivered a DX10 driver support.

Not suprising, seeing as Microsoft hasnt delivered a DX10 driver yet...
 
I don't care what anybody says.

I saw a video of this game running on a 360 demo unit, and this game looks incredible.

It was like a highlight reel of gameplay, and the graphics, special effects, weapons, environments, enemies, settings, etc. Everything looked tight.

I don't want to know anything else about the game. Just let the game speak for itself.

play the demo.


A welcome to the PC platform.
 
I played some of it on a demo console at MicroCenter, and I loved it...the creatures creeped me out, and the graphics were fully impressive!
 
I played the game a few months back when it was initially released. The first level was awesome, which kept me playing. Truth be told I came very close to giving up on it, but I forced myself to stick with it. The storyline is a bit nonsensical at times, but it's still entertaining. In the end, I was satisfied.

Hopefully everything will be situated by the time the demo comes out.

I can't wait to find out the difference between DX9 and DX10. You guys with DX10 cards and Vista, make sure you do some comparisons, and let us know.
 
What kind of a game is it?

I can't be bothered to look up info about it atm.
 
Heh I bought this game for me 360 just three days ago, despite the negative comments in this thread, I actually quite like it! From what I've gathered it uses the same game-engine as Dead Rising(Also a Capcom 360 game), it's very fun to play but way to short imo.:)

And it can be a bit tiresome with the 'warmth' meter or w/e its called, it runs out quite easily for me, and I'm just playing on bloody Normal!

Looks cool, but if Capcom's doing the port... they'll **** it up somehow.

I thought it was other developers that **** up Capcom's games... like Resident Evil 4 PC

Every Capcom port I have seen has changed what people thought that system could do!

For example, Street Fighter II for SNES was about as close to the arcade as you could hope for, without putting quarters in your SNES, and the SNES had a 3 Mhz processor

I have played about a dozen capcom ports and they have all been perfect, so I wouldn't worry. We may even see an extra feature? :stare:
 
VirusType, the difference is Capcom has barely any experience with console > PC ports in all honesty.. Like Onimusha 3 for PC.

You see, Capcom has quite a bit of experience developing games for various consoles, but not for PC, which ofcourse makes it harder for them to make proper PC ports, which I guess is the reason almost all of their PC ports are outsourced to other development groups.

Yeah, that's true, and that even crossed my mind. I wasn't aware of any PC ports actually.

Capcom did the Onimusha 3 PC port?

I would have already bought that, but I already beat that one years ago on the PS2 on a rental, so obviously it's pretty short, and my experience with it was somewhat mixed. It's like the series borrowed so much from RE that it just seems kind of all used up and old news or something.

Always has epic ancient Japanese orchestra music (or whatever it's called) that I love though.

I may still buy it. You got to remember that it's probably a port of a PS2 game. What's wrong with it?
 
Now if only it was hosted somewhere that I didnt have to pay to download it...Ive always had an extreme hatred for Fileplanet...
 
VirusType2, Shader Model 4.0 is a part of DirectX 10.:)
 
Crashes on start-up. Anyone got it working under Vista? Maybe i should try the dx9 version..
 
Yes it runs great on vista 64bit. ****ing nvidia they need to sort out their SLI for 7 series Now.... I need both cards to run so I can enjoy it at higher res.

at the moment I am playing with one single card because of the vista driver. the res i am using is 1280x760..somthing like that. and 16xAFF. evyrthing is on high except for the shadow quality is on medium. The dam driver is shit under vista.

**** you Nvidia for not building a good driver......:flame:

My spec:

FX55
DFI SLi-DR
2G-OCZ 4000EB
300GB Maxtor DiamondMax store Windows + Applications
150GB RaptorX store my Games
2 x BFG GeForce 7800 GTX OC 256MB (SLi Configured) Driver FW158.18
NEC ND3540
Audigy2 ZS 7.1
Coolermaster WaveMaster.
Enermax 600W

I am getting new system one week before crysis. :thumbs: :thumbs: DX10 ftw

edit: Excellent game 5*
 
Has anyone actually played the demo yet?

If so, how is it? Installing atm.
 
It's fantastic!!!

But you need a pretty solid rig to run it, especially in DX10.

Just pure awesomeness!

I've got a 7600 GSOC 512MB with 2gb of ram, should that play it decently?
 
My 8800gts cranks out a mere 30fps on max settings in dx9.

Shadow quality: medium (it wont let me turn it up any more)
 
Something very wrong there TC. I'm playing the demo with an x1900xt, amd fx-57, and 1 gig of ram. All settings maxed except shadow quality is on medium. I'm getting a very stable, fluid 40 ish fps.
 
Yeah, seems it.

Just downloaded the new driver and it is crashing the game now...

-_-

Edit:


Fatal Error: out of memory

Bah, the one I downloaded from Fileplanet tells me it can't detect Direct X 9, even though I've had the latest version installed for awhile now.

Redownloading from Nvidia's site. :|
