[Tahnit]

it says free for the holidays. Does that mean after the holidays you wont be able to play it anymore?

 

[CertifiedFP]

I'd rather they put it on Steam where shit won't be impossible to download in a rush (just super slammed). Same with UT2016, but whatever. No money to Orson Scott Card to fund his homophobia is a good thing to me.

wait wait wait...

I just remembered, this is that game based off of Empire.

AKA: Right Wing Militia Rhetoric: The Book

I mean, IIRC it wasn't quite in the leagues of Hitler Did Nothing Wr- Ahem, Ender's Game, but uh...

Yeah, boyos, get this shit for free while it lasts, lest you send OSCard royalties.

 

[leng jai]

This launcher is atrocious.

 

[Shirke]

Damn, I only have my Macbook with me now. I'll have to wait till I get back home for the holidays to download. It should be available for the rest December of right?

 

[Gaogaogao]

Not a great first impression of the launcher.

it was good when ut4 came out

 

[Parsnip]

Breaking News.
A North Carolina building caught fire as millions and millions of people were trying to download free shit and bunch of servers exploded.

 

[epmode]

Port seems good aside from UI issues that I assume are appearing because I'm playing over 1080p. Some minor UI elements overlap text and some others are too small (they don't scale properly).

It's minor stuff that isn't apparent during general gameplay so I don't mind. Far better than having to dig out my 360.

 

[Miker]

Screens.

Doesn't look like they've improved anything. Looks like a 2009 game.

Oof. I've called Shadow Complex "Unreal Engine 3: The Game" before, and damn if that ain't true.

 

[The Dear Leader]

I take it a toaster with the letters "p c" written on the side with a sharpie can run this game?

 

[OverdriveOtaku]

Only if the rabbit ear antennas are angled the proper way, should be good then.

 

[wingedarcher7]

Definitely picked this up, but it looks like it's under some stress right now so I'll back off and try it again later.

[The Dear Leader]

Only if the rabbit ear antennas are angled the proper way, should be good then.

You're describing an Xbox One

Yep, close enough.

 

[Palculator]

wait what

Awesome!

 

[Muskieratboi]

Shadow Complex PC uses the Epic Games launcher.

Way to go Stopping all development of Unreal Engine 4 games today, Epic

 

[Guymelef]

What a shitty launcher, doesn't start.
When start can't select the game, even if I installed it before...

 

[Zafir]

Their login seems to be getting hammered so can't even log into my unreal account to download it.

 

[Rodney McKay]

Not seeing this? Where it says launch, it said install.

I'm getting the tabs at the top of the launcher now (I wasn't initially), but I don't have Shadow Complex as one of the tabs.

I guess I'll try again later tonight or tomorrow.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Unfortunately JillOfTheJungle.xyz/myspace/geocities.shtm client does not support Mac. But yes they are saying it'll be free until after Christmas.

 

[KarmaCow]

I don't even have those tabs anymore.

 

[Machina]

And the best thing of all is they don't force you to sign up to some useless fucking service in order to let you have it (Epic Launcher actually has one)

Thank you, Epic

 

[More_Badass]

How do I get here? Downloaded the Launcher, but just seeing the tabs for Learn, Marketplace, etc.

 

[Gaogaogao]

I think their servers are just really fucked up right now

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

The launcher is borked right now. It showed up for me shortly after launch but hang shown up since.

Give it time

 

[FlyinJ]

I would be so fucking pissed if I was at work using Epic's tools right now.

 

[tesqui]

This game could use an HD texture pack.

 

[Dmax3901]

I can't even log in with the launcher :/

 

[RE_Player]

Will wait for the PS4 release even though I have a great PC. Not downloading another client.

 

[Seven4sses]

It feels like Christmas already

 

[Crisium]

I can't even log in with the launcher :/

Same. They were not prepared for the demand.

 

[paperspace]

Will wait for the PS4 release even though I have a great PC.

ok?

 

[Machina]

Yep, Epic's servers have melted down

 

[Tansut]

Didn't expect to get this today, so I can wait another day or however long for the servers to clear up.

 

[Ran rp]

Was going to grab it until it wanted me to install some random launcher and make an account. No thanks.

 

[Gaogaogao]

I blame konami

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Will wait for the PS4 release even though I have a great PC. Not downloading another client.

So, you want to pay $10-$15 for the game next year instead of simply downloading thirty megs and supplying a name and email to sign up to play the game now for free and very likely running better than any console can? Okay.

 

[Nightshade]

Meanwhile at Epic server rooms.

 

[Alo81]

Can't login to Epic Games Launcher anymore.

what a pain!

 

[More_Badass]

To be fair, I'll be doing both

Playing it now and then picking it up later on Steam so I don't have to deal with this god-awful launcher

 

[nded]

Error Code R-1603.

 

[duckroll]

It's cool that They're giving it free but this game would really benefit from a remake or a sequel instead. Good first steps years ago, but tons of room for improvements...

 

[dLMN8R]

Having just recently played the 360 version, the screens in this thread look massively better.

I don't think people realize just how incredibly dated the 360 version of this game is, even compared to other 360 games.

 

[thehillissilent]

It's cool that They're giving it free but this game would really benefit from a remake or a sequel instead. Good first steps years ago, but tons of room for improvements...

I would gladly pay for an Unreal Engine 4 version with improvements and additions.

 

[Geraldo_Ray]

I can't log into the launcher. Guess I'll try again tomorrow if it doesn't go through tonight.

 

[akira28]

Damn I was just about to install it but then I saw I had to make a goddamned account. so I was debating whether or not to do that. I said ok, free game, why not, fuck it. So I click on the register button..nothing...click...nothing. then I hit the Start button by mistake and end up opening Origin which immediately starts updating....

no. I had even forgotten that I had left Origin on there. Dammit. enough with the Installers and Service Apps.
