Superpower 2 is Gold
« on: October 01, 2004, 11:24:27 PM »
As of Yesterday, Must have missed the news.

http://www.golemlabs.com

Headin to Wally World to get it on Sunday, would have downloaded the Demo, but 160Mb is to much for me to handle on 56K.

Interested in MP if anybody else grabs it.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I got SP1, Its a great game.

I'm playing a mod where the EHE is modified, and in the first week the United States invaded Afghanistan. Relations in the Middle East are similar to what we have today.

I started the game as Lebanon, and face all sorts of threats from all ends of the spectrum, But thats mostly because I invaded and conquered Jordan, Israel hates me, Syria and other Arab countries are spending huge amounts of Money on covert Ops in my country. I am building Nuclear Submarines with help from the US that are capable of carrying the 10 or so Nuclear Missiles I own, Which, Mind you are capable of hitting London. Although the US controls my end of the Med.

Its a tough game, and I'm sort of stuck in defending my country from internal upheaval, Supported by the Syrians, Mostly. I keep having to restart from my last save, because I can't prevent the overthrow.

Ah Well, Once I get SP2, I'll start a new.

Well I got it,

After nearly yanking my teeth out, I gave up on the install and emailed Tech Support,

After I did that I browsed the Golem Forums, If you buy the game don't use the Dreamcatcher Forums, Their Tech Support for the game is almost nonexistant, On the Golem Forums there lots of posts about how crappy the game is, I started to become really dissapointed.

But I found the thread I was looking for, After Installation, it says "Please Insert Disc 2 for Authorization Code"

Well where they messed up is that instead of Inserting Disc Two, You have to put in Disc 1. :rolleyes:

Then I realized I needed DirectX9C, So i got that, Now after some more reading of the forums, I'm downloading an Update Patch, 7Mb, Thats not too bad I guess. It's a lot better than other games I was really excited about, and when I got them they were poop and you had to D/L huge patches to fix them.

So, just waiting to finish downloading, then I can start on my plans to conquer the world! Sorry Loin, I've got other priorites tonight :D Maybe Next Week?
