No game should need a 6800 and look like that.

Unless it has 128 players on levels bigger than Battlefield 2's.

Its my way of saying "How come BF2 looks so sexy and on such a large scale yet this game has higher system specs and is uglier".

It's just recomended specs, minimums are:
Geforce 3series or equal / Intel (or AMD) processor 2.0 GHZ / 512 Mo RAM


but i agree... it dosent grab my attention at all.. mostly because of the stiff gun models and the boring design.. i guess it feels and plays somewhat like Chrome/Soldier of fortune but with a few physics and better graphics.

Well the gameplay sounds like a gay version of Counter Strike, so...

People like to jump into games and just frag, they dont want to have to sit out for 5mins while they make bets.

*uninstalls*

What a waste of time. The games awful. Effects like a 10 year old engine, ugly graphics, and the one guy that talks to you at the starts head shined like he was covered in baby oil.

Waste of space...

No, the graphics are only the start you twat. I was more pissed at the fact star force, a CPU drinking shitemare, was installed on my system from a DEMO without ASKING ME.

Remove it by using this:

As for the gameplay. Judge it yourself, and YOU try and tell me that this game couldn't of been released 10 years ago...

yes, I'm an idiot because i hate star orce and because i think a game with 1998 visuals and gameplay is shite because it needs a better PC than Doom 3 and has horrid gameplay... :dork:

Yeah, and you need to show hidden files to show it.

Even after using that remover thing, it still hasn't removed fully... :icon33:

Try looking for starforce nightmare (that's not what you linked to is it?) either that or maybe that other tool needs to be updated. This demo probably comes with the latest nasty sf version they have.
