Hi,
Anyone here own RFG and experiencing extreme lags and lock ups?

Finally got this game yesterday, and was aware of some performance issues based on reviews I'd read, but holy crap - This thing locks up after every explosion (which is awesome for a game focusing on demolition), every cut scene, every step, every shot fired...
You can however play it with no problems in a Windowed mode, which is great except I already own a PSP.

I've put all settings as low as they can go - running a resolution of 800x600 and still no luck.

Anyone have any tweaking ideas, patches ... anything?
 
Doesn't look like there are any patches at the moment so i'm not sure how to help you.

Have you got the latest graphics card driver installed?
 
:)

All good man - yeah I got the latest drivers installed - and then the game decided to not work AT ALL.
I trawled the net looking for a patch, which THQ says they're busy working on.....
Releasing a game that is virtually unplayable on anything but a Quad CPU is a bit of a chance.
 
I must still install this - might get round to it tonight - but I bought it on Steam... not sure if it will be the same as yours.
 
I bought Red Faction Guerilla yesterday and its sooooooo awesome... I love how you can destroy EVERYTHING!!!!

Ur one of those kids who would build lego cities then kick them to pieces wheren't u?

I see there is a pretty active modding scene, i might buy it for PC just to play around with the modding capabilities.

Thanks guys - you're making me feel so much better :)

The part I did play on the windowed screen was awesome, no doubt there - but now it gives me a Runtime error after validating and doesn't launch.
Think I might take it back today - somethings dodgy there.

can u pull the details of that runtime error for us so that we can possibly help solve the issue???
 
Didn't make a note of it unfortunately, but what I can remember:

Microsoft Virtual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\Volition Inc\Red Faction Guerrilla\rfg.exe

and then something to effect of "The applicaton chose to close in an unusual way, please contact the support team etc
 
No, I'm not running a .net framework - I'll try to reinstall the Visual C++, see if that works - although I did uninstall and reinstall the game again.
Thanks for the info guys
