Any idea about the Imp Carrier and the level we have access to it if we get the normal version?

Coz if we can find it early in the game, I'd rather buy the normal edition and spend the rest 25 euros on sth better Smile


i think that normal and CE edition are the same in fact of game levels and conteins both have 200 levels with the only excteption of the elite GFX pack, artbook, music cd, wallpapers, the Arcadia map and other stuff. the elite GFX pack for high resolution texture u can download it into many torrents site and it's multi5 so the CE is more expensive and useless to buy

i don't have the special edition but the normal. for me the only extra that worth is the elite GFX grafic pack all the rest are useless stuffs. this is my opinion. the grafic pack is downloadable on many torrent site and also the music pack mp3 so the CE for me is not worth to buy

Well if you're going to play a lot of multiplayer on the closed server then I suppose it could be worth it because of the carrier imp, which you can't use anywhere else. But for the map and the elite texture disc and some music?
No get all that off usenet or where you might get that kind of stuff from, and just get the standard edition and use the remaining money for one of the other great games coming out this october, like for instance fallout 3. Wink

I don't think anyone knows yet. It was put on torrent sites, but not yet uploaded to usenet. It could be a while before reports start coming in.

*edit*
On one of the torrent sites, the uploader has stated that it is not the German edition.

Aside from the cache or memory related problems (For the game.) that I posted about two pages back there's not much of a performance difference but these crashes are quite annoying though I've managed to improve the situation but I can't eliminate the problem entirely so a patch is probably needed for this and some smaller remaining bugs.

With a 4870x2 Card I average about 70 FPS going down to around 55 as the lowest with many enemies on the screen simultaneously but it's not often that happens and it's still fully playable.

Posted a bit more a few pages further back but basically the texture resolution is doubled from the "MQ" texture set (There's three as I've said, LQ = low, MQ = medium/standard and this addon DVD adds HQ which equals high or "Elite" in the options menu.)

They're not as compressed either but as the game is usually played with the camera zoomed out a bit you won't notice a big difference and even fully zoomed in it can be difficult to spot any bigger changes with this set.

Been trying to solve the crashes for a while now and while the "Sys Flush" console command helps it'll still crash eventually, similarly increasing the amount of memory the game has available (Via the options.txt file that stores all settings.)will only help for a short while.

Did a compromise by unpacking the textures and switching to "Standard" (MQ) texture quality and then put all Heroes/NPC's/Monsters and items texture from the elite texture pack as a modification while keeping terrain and architecture textures from the "MQ" path.
(Just put the textures in the "PAK/MQ" folder, easy to understand if you open the actual archives, they're just standard .zip files, and check the folder layout.)

Oh and I downloaded the "Warg" release and it's the Eng_UK localization.
(English, European that is.)

No it's missing the 7GB "Elite" addon disc, you'll need to download it separately.
(Also misses the music track, wallpapers and audio excerpt.)

(17 GB instead of 12 all in all if you were to download everything.)

2 DVDs as in 8GB total or 16GB?

I think it's time to switch to an ISP that doesn't enforce BW caps...if pirating is gonna cost me almost 20GB a game a 60GB/mo cap isn't gonna cut it, lol. Not to mention while I thought 1MB/s was a good nice DL speed (certainly the fastest in my area) it just won't cut it for a 16GB game dl...

If it hits usenet though that's another story. ISP has all the groups and 30 day retention, not to mention because it's on the ISP network it doesn't effect my cap


i can has computar?!

There is another protection activating once you reach lev.25 (and at every levelup after lev.25). It kicks you back to menu and corrupts your savegame so you cant spent skill points any longer - game over.

Sacred 2 full with both discs (Two DVD's one 4GB and one 8GB) is 12 GB and about 12.5 GB when installed but as the Elite texture DVD is 7 GB the full install grows to 17 GB with it installed.

And here's the English manual.
