I used to play shogun2 then some patch came out and it wont launch, something to do with .net framework maybe? Very fustrating

I will be playing CLoD, probably play Lock On a bit if it strikes me.

I played World of Tanks and I thought the game was missing something. Good graphics, but I did not like its approach to balancing the game.

I do play Eve Online as well...although I haven't even logged on in well over 4 months.

So, I do believe the chart will be as follows:

Free time spent in:

Cliffs of Dover = 85%
Lock On = 8%
Watching Tv = 5%
Wife = 2% (Subject to change, pending the evil eye/agro severity) :mrgreen:


Cheers!

Whiskey

Edit:

Revised Chart due to Wife reading over my shoulder:

Cliffs of dover = 25%
Lock on = 5%
Watching tv/movies = 5%
Wife = 30%
Home Reno = 35%

In the time I've been waiting to really play this game I've gone out and become a real world pilot and got my license. There aren't any bandits about when I fly but so far my FPS have been incredible! :mrgreen:

I got an ex RAF pilot to take me up in his extra 200 and got the chance to actualy fly all the WWII combat tactics.. very challenging and very hard work physicaly putting the body through sustained G turns etc, but very, very rewarding!

Indeed, since it is one of the most beautiful games I have ever played.

I assume you went through all the steps, verify game cache and such. There were people who had problems after the dx11 patch. I would certainly try to get the dxwebsetup from microsoft and run it. Going to jump over to their website and post a link if I find it.
Such a shame, it is to me the best total war game to date.

Also keep in mind you can always go to the total war forums and ask a question in their tech discussion towards the bottom of the page or maybe contact tech support directly. They are very helpful and knowledgable.

Tried to put a link but it didn't work, just go to microsoft.com and to the download center. Right there where the most popular downloads are you will find the link for the directx End-User Runtime Web Installer.
This might also help with other games.
Plus they have a download for the .NET Framework 4 as well.
Hope this helps.

I think you'll find that some of the guys on here are still at the alpha stage on that. Do we need a watershed?

The stutters are worse for me in this patch, so I'm back filling my online game time with Company Of Heroes, but that is getting old real quick cause of all the smurfs kicking the crap out of us noobs.

now IL2-1946 seems to be a arcade game, but I'd play both sims
also Red Orchestra 2

The main thing is that this most recent patch didnt help much, game seems identical to the last beta.. Please dont think im ungrateful, I just dont want to get bored of the game so think its a good idea to take a break from playing!

NedLynch

Well, two new things I at least noticed:

Constant speed propellor on the SpitIa and the manual prop pitch in the E4 works properly now, though the auto prop pitch still seems to have issues that apparently can be solved by momentarily switch to manual prop pitch.

Other than that, hey got one of my old favorites at the steam sale last week, Company of Heroes, so that's good and then there is always Shogun2.

However I am rather happy with the last patch and in addition I recommend checking out IL2DCE on this site and TEF DCG on airwarfare.com.

Hope at some point we will get a real DCG with all the bells and whistles :grin:.

You know guys, one other remark if I may. I remember when Company of Heroes was new and I think pretty much noone could run that beauty at full settings.....just saying.

Returned back to Chernarus and Takistan. ArmA2:OA still rocks and testing the actual BETAs there is no doubt that the upcoming patch will be milestone. (1.6x)
