Also Quaz, considering this game was modded from UT3, I'm not all that surprised. Consider, UT3 is a multiplayer game with no "rpg"-like elements at all. All the configs can be changed via the ini files. Gearbox comes in and uses it for an FPS/RPG hybrid with client-side saving. You do the math.
I don't think you guys understand. I can accept games that can be easily hacked. I understand many games hold vital data client side, and thus with the right tools, it can be tweaked. But I'm talking about a joe shmoe who doesn't want to cheat enough to download sketchy programs or learn how to use a hex editor, but goes looking through these mystical "ini" files he heard about on teh webs with notepad, and finding a value that says "Max Inventory Size" and goes, "I would like to hold a 100 guns."
Holding data like that client side is understandable, especially when there's no dedicated servers and such. But couldn't they have at least not documented it?
Surely, this is just me overreacting to something that is simply not the case, somebody please correct me.
Holy shit fuck my router. I'm looking at the model and its completely different from what portfoward is showing me. I have like a hour to get this working before my friend can play.
This is aggravating.
EDIT: I got it V2 apparently. I take that back fuck Portforwarding can't get this to work.
Steam id is in Sig I need a invite/someone to shoot shit with.

Being a network admin geek does have it's uses! Already configured my home router remotely for play when I get home
Assuming the stars align. Apparently even a proper setup isn't a guarantee of success.

I am getting intense video stuttering. Poor 8800, you lasted me 2 years, but sadly, your time has passed.
What? Man, I can run UT3 on high settings with no problems in my 8800 and Crysis on high @30ish FPS. There is no way this game should be more taxing than those from what I've seen of it so far.

They didn't add an option to toggle aim, you have to hold down your aim button or key
Honestly I would have enjoyed having that for the console as well.
Why dear god why? Toggling aim would suck as enemies close fast and being able to just release the trigger makes shooting mans a lot easier then shooting mass in front of me.

Apparently using the free trial on here: http://www.gotrusted.com/ will allow you to decrypt the files. Then set Steam to offline until Friday and you should be good to go. I will be trying this out in a few hours and will report back with more detailed instructions if necessary.

Why PC mourning, I've missed the last few days of the thread?

What? I'm running it on an 8800GT @ 1920x1200 with pretty much everything maxxed and its silky smooth
How important are weapon levels? It seems like brick should be using launchers+shotguns, but i haven't seen a launcher yet, my only shotgun is horrible, and i have unbelievably kick ass pistols and smgs falling out of the sky so i'm using those..but i'll use my crappy shotgun if it'll gimp me later

They seem to catch up pretty fast when you switch. Don't worry about it.

So yeah, haven't tried the multiplayer yet, which is apparently why I am not currently seething with PC nerd rage.
Yet, anyway.
Since I can't find any fucking documentation anywhere, if I fuck around with the single player and level up a character, does that character carry over to co-op, or do I have to start from square one?
Why PC mourning, I've missed the last few days of the thread?
Then you probably saw the previous thread, it's moving so fast
Everyone seems to be having trouble with getting co-op going on the PC aswell as the fact that it's all console-ified in terms of the interface. Then there's teh non-North Americans who can't play it until 30th but were expecting to play it today.

First I should mention that I would want "Toggle aim on/off" in the options so you can turn it off if you hate it. Reason I would want it is because it would have made the controller preset that is laid out like Halo 3 viable. I suppose if you weren't a sniper it might suck. Though the "Nuked" preset has worked well enough for me.

Well weapon proficiencies help but aren't super required to kill mans. And weapon skills again help, but if you go gunslinger you won't fumble the smg when it goes to fire, you just won't do as well as if you were using a pistol.

:? What kind of 8800?
8800 GTS, i'm playing on a LAN with my 3 IRL buddies, and i'll run for about 30 seconds, then freeze, then my character will continue running froward spraying bullets off a cliff. :? Trying to find a fix for it.
When I was in my early teens I had to go the doctors to get this hernia thing checked out and he told me an interesting story (probably to take my mind off the fact that I was having to get my junk out in front of a random stranger.)
Apparently in ye olden days (he didn't really specify an exact era) if anyone had this particular hernia condition thing then they were thought to have 3 balls and this entitled them to have more than one wife because obviously they would have more baby making materials to go round.
My '3rd ball' has since been removed and my feet are whole, so the similarity to 9 toes ends there.

So last night I encountered a bug that annoyed me on some levels. Couldn't get the Rescue Claptrap achievement even though I did all the quests. Somehow I only got 36 slots yet I've done all the claptrap quests. Not sure if it has anything to do with finding the last claptrap after beating the game but GRRRrrrr
If it does it again on my Roland run I'll be every so cross *pouts*

The GTS, which I have, is a pretty sexy card. I daresay it's a driver issue, given the others who have chimed in earlier saying they're not having issues with theirs.

I'm still at work, so...
I'm reading a few other sites, and i'm getting all sorts of different reports. From the latest 191. drivers not working, to all of them being borked, to only the 173. drivers working.... It's all very confusing. I'm fairly sure that you're right, and it is a driver issue.
Well weapon proficiencies help but aren't super required to kill mans. And weapon skills again help, but if you go gunslinger you won't fumble the smg when it goes to fire, you just won't do as well as if you were using a pistol.
Indeed! Like I mentioned ealier in this thread (or the one before) I played as Mordecai, the sniper, but I ended up just shotgun'n people in the face to great effect for most of the game.
Basically the weapon bonuses each class gets are appreciated, but not required to kill mans.

The max slots is 36? I think I have 30 which probably means that I need 2 more clap traps... Hmmm good way to guage progress. Though I swear people claim there is one in skag gully I do not believe this!

I've been thinking that there must be a way to add this via the INI's
Forward ports 6500 and 9989 (TCP/UDP) in addition to the ones listed in the OP
I did this and it now works
Can trade TF2 items or whatever else you're interested in. PM me.
What? Man, I can run UT3 on high settings with no problems in my 8800 and Crysis on high @30ish FPS. There is no way this game should be more taxing than those from what I've seen of it so far.

I can only imagine the 360 version did well sales wise if they are sold out. Though I dunno how videogame sales work.
