Thumbs down

all I get is a black screen nothing happens. task manager 'not responding'

BUT. set the game in the exe properties to run as 98 and the intro works menu and game runs . BUT the game window its self is offset to the left no radio sound my speakers are fine my drivers up to date and for sure is not running at 1024*768 or at 85Hz(I'm on a CRT).

where the hell are the graphic options sound options? I did not expect this to be that crap with no optimization.

give us a patch please or a workaround until a patch is out.
I hope to see some sort of reply from the moderators here with some solution from the devs.


EDIT: if running the game with win98 compatibility this will open up 2 OFDER.exe in the task manager. You will then close the OFDER.exe that is using the MOST memory usage and the game will run.

Change speaker config to 6 chan from your soundeffect manager (AC97 on board sound) fix's radio speech.

there is a bug in the quick command interface. According to the menu you can use the [f] key to quickly select the whole fireteam and it does not work. Individual men can be selected and deselected with their corresponding keys, but the [f] command doesn't work.

the FOV (field of view) needs a fix, i always have the feeling of being in zoom mode.

and as others have said, mouse has some input lag, doesnt respond directly enough.

then there is a problem with high DPI mice, i have a logitech g9x and even if i chose the lowest possible sensitivity ingame it is much too fast, so i have to reduce the resolution in the driver to something about 1000 dpi (instead of 5700 that works fine in every other game) and when i do so the mouse in menu and map is much to slow

and of course, there HAS to be a dedicated server, or this will be the death of dragon rising

When on menus it works, but when playing it freezes.

-Ati HD4870 catalyst 9.9

2) Fix the FOV, it's awful!
3) Made a private campaign coop game with password and when inviting a friend, he can't join it via invite.
4) Made a private game without password and it was filled with unknown people. Shouldn't the private games be hidden from other peep?
EDIT:
5) Mic volume was really low to other people. I've set everything maxed from windows and game, still they could barely hear me.

Well, lots of bugs overhere! I´m not able to use aiming! At the mission it worked for a minute or so, after that, nothing happens when I press the right mouse button. I´ve tried to remap the aiming button, but no help, won´t work...
There´s a few more other bugs, not so annoying though.. Any help here?

My specs: CoreDuo E8400
4Gb memory
Ati Radeon 4890 OC 1GB
Windows Vista Premium 64bit

Thanks!
This is a bad one! I posted about this one without seeing yours first.

Windows 7
Logitech G5 (with normal windows drivers)

I just had a problem where the mouse wheel will stop scrolling through the weapons making it unnecessarily difficult to navigate.

The scroll wheel is working. It works zooming in/out of map [EDIT- It does NOT zoom in/out when this happens anymore] . It initially works bringing up the weapon list, but then it doesn't work scrolling through that list.

This problem is actually more sever than I originally though.

NO ORDERS can be made in MAP mode when this happens.

It's not just the mouse wheel. Panning in the map won't work either and no order will happen when selecting a spot on the map.

Even when using the Fn keys no orders can be placed.

The only solution is to quit the game and restart (which sucks because of no manual saves)

TAG - BUG

I second this, for vehicle turrets/command/driving seats, everything is zoomed in too far. It's very difficult to effectively see where you're driving/shooting/spotting. and for infantry it also gives the illusion that you can strafe faster than you can sprint.

For reasons unknown, my mouse wheel stopped working part way through playing. Had to restart the game. I do not have this issue in any other game.

Edit: My issue is exactly the same as post #17 in this thread. I have a Razer diamondback.

Dedicated server files are a MUST!

-Increaase weapon damage. I think it is too low. I sometimes have to shoot 3 rounds before an enemy dies. I believe this is too much? One shot should make you bleed and incapacitate a person. And if you don't receive medical help, you'll die. Easy as that.

-FOV needs adjusting. I think it needs to be bigger. (higher or what ever)

-Freelook for car-driver in 3rd person view.

-Driving is a little bit odd. Car goes way too easily out of contol. (starts sliding)

-MP is quite laggy - Dedi servers would help?
-Also, it disconnects from server after every match.

-Sniper scopes and all other scopes(binoculars)should have better resolution indicators. The numbers and lines are very blurry.

-Medic/healing AI shpuld be improved, like someone previously said. Also when I give a command to medic to treat injury on some of my teammates they both start running around and start looking for the best place to heal? sometimes they run araound really long time before they finally finish the job. there is just no point running around, searching for cover, when there is no enemys around.

-Also the mouse dissapearing issue. Someone earlier talked about that already.

-Also, there is like "mouse smoothing" switched on. Mouse neeeds to be very accurate and responsive.

-And...if possible, there should be higher resolution textures available.
