it explicitly pops up and says hey you have the pre order stuff avaliable as soon as you leave Kupa keep the first time.This is probably a silly question, but for those that prr-ordered on PC, how does the fellowship pack work? Do I have to reach a certain part of the game before I gain access to these costumes? Thanks in advance
Thanks! A buddy of mine was over and playing through the early section of the game and I must have missed it. Looks like it was a silly question!

Yeah, you save and it goes back to the closest check point, find it odd too
Anyone in the US buy the boxed PC retail version of South Park? I assumed the game uses steamworks all around, but I can't find it stating that on the PC retail copy. I just want to be sure before I buy it, otherwise I'll just buy steam cards and pick it up on steam directly. The only reason I rather get the PC box copy is because I'm trading in games to GameStop for a trade bonus but it only applies to physical copies. Any confirmation from any fellow GAFs who picked up the PC retail copy in the US would be great.

You're welcome.
A few pages back, someone said HD 4000 will run it, but don't take my word for it.

I think that's actually the audio from the Season 2 episode "Not Without My Anus".

I got mine off of steam but this game uses steamworks so you'll have to use steam and won't be able to trade it in. TBH I can't think of any recent PC release that did not use Steam or a service like it and that could be traded in. Does gamestop even let you trade in pc games?
No you can't trade PC games, I was just trading in console games I didn't want anymore towards the PC boxed copy.

Ah,
I thought I recognised the Celine dion part. There is other dialog that I didn't recognise.

Anyone do some testing with the PC version ini file? I increased texture quality, and a few other things but I didn't really notice any difference.

Can someone with the uncensored version tell me if they're able to enter the "Patients Only" door in the abortion clinic in early game? The door isn't locked, but the button prompt is grayed out. Curious if this is the censorship block or if i'm just not meant to go in there yet.
I just played 6 hours of this game. Man it is soooooo goooooood.
Wasn't able to get in their either. It's meant to be that way.

The configuration file is likely something that happens with Obsidian's engine by default. Most of the options almost certainly don't apply to a game built like South Park.
Thanks. Yup, I'm confirmed as blind.

I finally just beat him myself, and ironically it was laughably easy after I stopped overlooking certain items/skills. I'm not sure if the other classes have a
stun
stun, and I could keep two of the agents stunned indefinitely. I was also using speed potions so I could do at least one attack every round with an additonal attack or spell (stun). I was using a broken bottle that also had +gross on it. It would hit random enemies and cause bleed + gross, so they would take damage at the end of every round on top of whatever else they took that round.
I also died like 8x using Kenny, and finally just said fuck it, and switched to Butters, thinking it would be worse. Well, he ended up simply surviving longer, which is all I really needed.

Were you far into the game? I'm like level 9 or something so I'm starting to think I'm just too low level.

Nope, I'm level 8. The thing that really does the trick though is just to let the enemies
bleed/puke to death while keeping them stunned. I'd often have three of them stunned at the same time, but on the next turn one of them would be wearing off. My character also had patches that would give back PP per hit, and the bottle hits 4x and causes gross (I also had a patch that gave 2 PP when gross damage was done).
Oh, just checked and my stun was upgraded to rank 4 so that it would last an additional turn. I couldn't remember how many ranks that was.

Can you put a spoiler over an image? I can't seem to get it to work.
Anyone?
Hopefully the deal with South Park Studios either doesn't involve that crap or is at least far more lenient. I'd imagine being 80+ is a huge accomplishment in and of itself relative to prior games (though I DID enjoy that N64 shooter...)
EDIT: And it's higher than the TV show is on Metacritic is anyway, though that's probably the last damn place I'd give a damn about checking.

I'd at least watch the Black Friday trilogy online since it leads directly into the series...that and it's damn funny.

There are so many people trying to get this game for $25 -$30 dollars on PC in the buy/sell/trade thread. It's amusing. Guess the reviews won them over but the length doesn't have them wanting to pay full price. Such a shame. It's worth every penny imo. SOOOOOOO GOOOD! Hell I got a review copy and I've still got my PS3 Grand Wizard version on its way tonight!

Anyone know where the last timmy fast travel point is? Think i found the most obvious ones but 1 seems to be hidden or unlocked later?

It's somewhere you can't get to yet! I was pulling my hair doing the same thing. You will see
This sounds like a known bug. Just restart your checkpoint. Luckily It seems this is a rare ocurance.

Ok thank you. I was doing the same damn thing.
Yep I am. Rotate the stick, he turns away and then just drops the hammer.
I finally beat him using a similar tactic of stunning + bleeding + lots of items. Thanks for the help

Any discounts for the PC version out there?
You sure you're not just rotating the stick the wrong way? It only works in the direction the prompt says.
Just beat the game on Normal. With almost all side-quests. Took me about 10 hours.
Great game. One in a million, indeed. It feels like a giant South Park movie and that is awesome. Gameplay is tight, battles are fun, and exploring is awesome. Caught few bugs here and there, though. Can't say anything negative about this game, really.
9/10
