noooooooooooooo!

 

 

sniff, when i left it i ahd hoped it might speed up a little during the night, and reach at least 30% by morning, but i turn on the screen after sleeping, and, ERROR< lost connect with server, DAP says...

 

 

that happened at 9% so most of the night it did nothing... now its going even slower (was 1.2 kb a sec, now 0.5) and i dont know if il let it stay on or just say screw it.

 

maybe theyll sell Pcgamer k where i live today! if so ill try and get a FAST mirror up :)

Maar ja over een maand spelen we (hoop ik) allemaal het spel...dus tja.

OK I have the Magazine in front of me now and have only had time to take a quick look. Most of the screenies are ones we've seen before but I haven't had time to read the full article yet. Unfortunately I'm at work now for another 8 hours so I won't see the New trailer until I get home. It looks cool though and if no-one from across the pond has got it by then I will try my hardest to distribute it to all. Got to go now and do some work I will read the whole thing in my lunch break and report any unknown news back here.

 

Till Next time.

Almost all new footage indeed, but still think I prefer the official site's trailer. It's 2min 21 as you know, but literally only a few pixels wise bigger in terms of resolution...

 

30 secs of annoying intro text once again :)

 

In the first scene it looked like the laser blasts were going right through the Stormtroopers, but I know I'm being picky and more annoyed with how it didn't seem like once the blasts hit their victims, they didn't pack any real "punch"...

 

Repeated death sounds for Stormtrooper deaths soon after was a bit cringe worthy...

 

There was a Stormtrooper kneling to fire at Kyle which was nice...

 

Then some multiplayer action, or at least I assume it was, coz Kyle ran past the player viewpoint :)

 

Nice coloured glows of the different coloured lightsabres...

 

N i c e spinning force jump...

 

Love how the Stormtroopers FLY when you hit them with your sabre...

 

Nice sabre throwing - esp. how one time it missed the Gran (?) on the way out but caught him on the way back :)

 

Loved both appearances of the AT-STs...

 

As always, nice scorch marks on the walls from sabre...

 

Nice side rolling when with sabre in a many person duel... but am still curious as to how the sabre control really works and how much more than a key-hacking session it'll be :)

 

There was some slow-mo at the end when Kyle kills someone with a lightsabre - I would say it's Force Speed but coz the guy just died, and the camera spins around Kyle (a la when leaving him still for a while in JK1), I'd say it's something that happens when you either kill another lightsabre wielding dude, or maybe he was a boss???

 

All in all I'm still going to buy the game, just still have questions as to how it'll play out :) Maybe I should read the review first!

"only a littel bigger? thats impossible!"

 

True but not true.

 

I don't have acess to proper Quicktime, so had to play it through a browser plugin, so the resolution was the same as the other trailer. But I would happily imagine (@ 94Mb it would HAVE to be) that it will play full screen proper resolution if played through quicktime properly (Uni. have it installed but something with the files are knackered, so it wont play)

Hey guys, quick update, I am at 65% as of this morning and it said around 8-9 hours left, that means I should have it all around 7PM EST, I am posting on Morpheus first (hopefully you guys will support this program as the more people who have the file in their shared folder = better d/l speed for the next person, i've gotten some files at 160.5 kb/s because 40+ people have it and Morpheus adds all of the transfer rates together.....anyways you see where I am going with this.) Also I've been thinking about opening 2 ports on Morpheus instead of 5 so that those who are d/ling from me can get the file withing a fairly reasonable amount of time, when those two people d/l it, I will open up a couple of more ports hoping that those who just d/led it from me are now sharing too in Morpheus (It's all about teamwork)

17% here lol

 

 

Sigh, girls working at book stores are fo no use... Let me explain the situation:

 

I live in a fairly small town (11.000 inhabitants) and the main local store does not sell PCGamer UK... I still went to check it out but they didnt have it, I did pick up the latest Air Forces Monthly (a UK mag, mind you)

 

Right, so, at 17 km away, is a bigger city (50.000 + at least) and i KNOW they sell the PC Gamer UK at various points... If i want to go there, i'll have to buy a train ticket, so if they don have it there et, its kind of a waste. I decide to call first:

 

Get some girl / young woman on the phone: I explain the deal, or try to

 

Well, she goes away and says she found one, but its the february one, well i ask here whats on the front, uhh, a war game, title? i ask... Return of Castle ..... wolfenstein, she adds

 

Hmmmmmm, thats probably the US version i figure, since i recall seeing a pic on the pcgamer UK site with unreal tournament 2 on the front of last issue.

 

I decide, ok, she's probably way confused if i start telling her about a US version, so i just ask: How long, do you think, does it take for a UK mag, if its released TODAY in the UK, to come over here?

 

uhhhhh, she goes away and asks, comes back, 1 to 2 weeks, she says.

 

i say: hmmm, well, kthxbye

 

j/k no i say well ill look around sometime then

 

 

 

 

Remember when i mentioned air force monthly, new one, which i picked up? I checked in the one before this one, and in the back it said, next issue, february 14th, YESTERDAY, and i picked the new one up TODAY (and it MIGHT have beent here yesterday, i wasnt there then)

 

Moral of the story, DO I GO BY TRAIN OR NOT ?!?!?!

 

ARGH!!!

 

i wodner if anyone read this lol

lol- get the train but to be honest now having spent the last hour reading this Mag, the only thing that is special is this 100mb movie. There are 4 pages of review, which basicly entaile the whole game is great and nothing will come close.

To be honest it wasnt worth £5.99 just to get a 100mb Movie :(

I say no, you'll have the movie within the next couple of days (trust me), and the scans of the mag will be floating around soon also. beside the movie is the meat of the deal and it is just getting circulated around the net, you'll get it.
