Am eagerly awaiting for your mini-reviews guys, so I can spare my connection. It's still blaming me for the last time that I installed the original game Very Happy Laughing

I just had a look at the Steam page, and yea the two videos (that show absolutely no gameplay) are actually at a much better quality than the ingame cutscenes.

Also it's not my puny GPU that causes the low fps, according to a Steam review:
Quote:
- Bad FPS (got like 23fps in the first town with a GTX980)

LOL
Seems they are having a cinematic fps lock.

It's a shame though, as the idea behind the game could be interesting.

"we have no open requests left. All are answered, positive or negative. Probably you made a typo in the email adrees. I had this case already 10 times today."

No reason to wait for the key. Lots of us have the same issue and now we all have to request it again or try to talk it out with one of the devs on steam.
Great support indeed. Laughing

All of this is because they thought they could make some money by re-releasing their shit ass fucking game under a new name instead of just PATCHING THE ORIGINAL PILE OF SHIT THEY RELEASED IN JANUARY.


And yes, I'm mad.

Oh wow... oh my... this game... Laughing

I really want this to be good because I like this studio and it's another pirate game so yay, but it's just such a disaster.

The game doesn't really look better than Two Worlds 2, yet it runs so much worse. At near maximum settings (except motion blur and AA - which seems to do nothing besides crippling the framerate even more) I get about 10 fps, if even that, at the docks at the start. On the lowest possible settings I get a whooping amount of 18 fps! AMAZING!

And from the intro it's so clear that they wanted this to be like Black Flag / Rogue, but they just didn't manage to do it, feels about the same but worse. I think the voice acting is fine, but then again I never find that an amazingly important part of a game so as long as it's serviceable, I'm good. Oh and yeah, the cutscenes are hideous, not only are they prerendered, but they seem to have done that on a 20 years old PC because they run at like 10 fps as well.

I had to add a Topware representative on Steam to get my keys. He couldn't find my information in their database even after I submitted it the second time so I had to send him an email. After he entered my information it somehow popped up and he could grant my request. Finally got my keys now.

So if you're having problems, make sure to add their representative: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969895956/

It seems their database is acting up.

sabin: read my post. Their database is probably fucked. Friend didn't get a key either. Add the person I linked to on Steam and bitch about it. Ask to send your info/screenshots to their email. They sorted it out in 5 minutes after that.

Ya I added him as a friend some time ago(Raidor),but he hasn't been online since yesterday so I'd be pretty mad if I wanted to play this today. Laughing
I also requested a free upgrade for a second time and still nothing.

Man fuck this,it's back to Fallout 4 and then Tomb Raider(xbox edition) and maybe Hard west too. Smile

He was online up to about 9:30 GMT+1 today but went offline suddenly while my friend was talking to him. Probably to get some sleep.

"do you guys expect, that we work 24/7 and never sleep? There was 2 weeks time before the release to request the keys and everyone who requested the key before the release got the key on the release date."

HAHAHAHAHA...I sure got my key before release date. Laughing

edit. Well that was a mess. Had to wait until Raidor got online and told him the case. Got the key now. Apparently my e-mail was not in their database,what a clusterfuck. Very Happy
Just glad it's over now. Smile

They could change the name another 3 times (trying to fool people into thinking it's a different one) and add some tweaking here and there, but the result will always be the same. This re-release truly is embarrassing Laughing

From the animations brought us by Pinocchio Inc, the u wot amateurish voices recorded inside London's chav community studio, the bugs, interface that looks copypasted from Microsoft excel, the dated visuals, the combat system so approximative that I can't even.
And last but not least, the performance, with a 970 I get 27-28fps in the town no matter the settings used. The poor ravens have so many reasons to cry here. Sad The game is like the Big Rigs of RPGs, an instant classic, only in the worst possible way xD

Funny how most of the time some russians are trying to scam with their games.

Reported this crap to Steam. Laughing



And a post by one dev:
Quote:
And if we would have hired 500 people to post reviews as stated - there would be 3000 positive revies and not 20.

(there currently are only 44 reviews anyways

Though those idiot devs probably already have plans to re-re-release it again under another new name.
