Well if you can you can play Receiver? That comes free with the pre-order of Overgrowth. Also: Hasn't anyone noticed that this feller doesn't have a pre-order tag???? and is claiming to have downloaded Overgrowth? I know I'm not a pre-orderer or anything but from what I understood you need to acces...

What I meant was it's the basic structural template for the game, is it not? Sure it is, but from what you write it seems that you expect a game that is similar to a full released final game, which it just isn't... but from what i've seen the progress being made seems somewhat stunted? I may be wro...

On a different note, I'm experimenting with config file options to see what runs best and now the game gives me this whenever I try to enter the game "Number of Fragment Texture Units exceeds HW limits. Number of combined Texture Units exceeds HW limits." Any idea what is wrong here? I've ...

No. A beta should be somewhat representative of the final game, but not an alpha. The game is in the middle of its development. The alphas are not optimized releases of the game, they are snapshots of something that gets heavily modified week by week. To quote jeff: What I meant was it's the basic ...

Most people don't have problems, I don't know why you think only 30% can play this... Well from the forums there are a lot of "Will my computer run overgrowth?" threads and the answer is often no. 30% was just an example figure, I understand it's probably higher than that but I was making...

[quote="Jaz" Oh and also, you never bought the alpha. You bought the final version of the game. That's what a pre-order is. The release threads even state that the releases are unofficial! The alphas aren't even proper releases. They're freebies that we pre-orderers get. They're only reall...

Just to clarify one point which I absolutely hate you for. Yes, carrying 6 weapons IS more important than the game running on all machines right now and still will be slightly more important when the game is finally released. Features like that make a massive difference to the gameplay and are very...

Yes it is 'running' but it's unplayable. And the only level that loads is the red crystals one. And no I haven't studied game design or anything like that but I've played a lot of games and I'm not an idiot. Now the fact is they have released and are charging for an alpha of a game that only runs on...

I don't want a refund, I want them to make the game work no matter what a customer is trying to run it on (within reason I mean). It's like only selling clothes in a size that only fits the minority of people? 5 Years into development and I really can't believe this is still a problem. It's simply r...

Like you said, its a fucking alpha. The last few updates have been strongly devoted to making the game lag less. And if you get 3 fps in slow motion, them your computer sucks, or the game is bad with your graphics card, and will eventually should be fixed. Yes, my computer isn't great. I know this....

Okay, so I pre-ordered overgrowth. I've seen videos on the alpha and it looks just incredible, and I wanted some of that. Now, I do not have the best machine in the world, but I figured it wouldn't be a problem. I get into the game, and I'm on 1 frame per second, 3 MAX when in slo-mo. I think, okay,...
