50 fps yeah , have to reach home to start playing does the patch helps ?
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Not sure. I applied the patch right from the beginning, to be on a safe side. No idea what it has fixed.
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

^^

Is the the gung-ho shoot 'em factor high...? Need a game like this, been a while.
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

^ Yup. Pretty high.

Getting 60 with those disabled. But they occasionally drop to 50. Are you having any issues with Alt+Tab?
 
Re: The Official 'BulletStorm' Thread! [PS3] [X360] [PC]

Oh yes, VERY HIGH! It's like Gears in FPS mode, only way faster and with a cockier attitude. ;)

Patch notes

Gameplay

* Bullets now do damage.

* To emphasize the fact that this is NOT a cover-based shooter but a frantic high risk high reward thrill ride, we added a number of additional objects for players to hide behind and waste time vaulting over.

* Removed several underwhelming kill combos such as “kick a guy, wait for him to get up, get shot by him, kick him again, then try to shoot him in the butt but miss and hit his torso” and “shoot a guy with a gun”.

* Added a jump button. It’s hidden somewhere in the second level. Good luck finding it!

* Reworked the stealth sections. Now they’re also escort missions, and being seen by an enemy is an instant game over.

* Players are no longer just scored on the creativity of their kills, but also on their ability to tap an unused button as many times per minute as possible. Thanks to StarCraft II for that one.

* New gameplay mechanic: Shoot bad guys as they try to shoot you.

Graphics

* Following Epic’s mandate, made all characters’ feet 50% bigger and added texture pop-in.

* There was a little too much blood flying around in previous versions. We’ve replaced most of it with intact bones and the fleeting visages of souls screaming in terror as they face the void of oblivion.

* Out of respect to all the other shooters out there, we pulled back on most of our gorgeous, colorful, and creative environments, replacing most of them with rubble and warehouses.

* Made the chick’s boobs bigger. This works because she’s a strong woman, you know, the kind that’s hyper sexualized and basically acts like an overly macho man.

* Optional alt-fire on every weapon now fills the screen with a nuclear explosion, leaving a sweet afterimage on your monitor for more than thirty minutes.

Sound

* Added audio cues to point out when slow-motion kicks in. Every time this happens, you should hear Grayson exclaim “Evvveryttthiiing isss sooo sloooow!”

* You know how Duty Calls made that hilarious “boring” sound when a gun was fired? We decided to incorporate something similar in Bulletstorm. Every time you pull the trigger, you hear the sound of a tongue slapping against a cheek, just to let you know that this game is tongue in cheek, in case you couldn’t tell, because we really want to drive that point home.

* Brought Steve Blum back in to record more lazy, extreme quips that are so over the top they know they’re over the top, and therefore are immune to criticism. Look forward to catchphrases such as “see you later, clit nugget” and “your guts smell like abortion”.

* The soundtrack has been completely replaced with constant gunfire and cursing.

The revised Sandy Bridge boards would be hitting Indian shores by April-mid. Will be assembling the new system then. :)

As for Alan Wake, yeah I read the news at VG247 couple of days back. But the download would be a pain wouldn't it? Any clue how big it is? I'd really prefer the actual disk.

Not bad. :)

Can it be downloaded to the PC and then be installed/played from a portable drive plugged into the X360? Or is it mandatory to download the game directly to the console itself?

*X360 nOOb alert* :ashamed:

[OT]

Screen - use a damp (not WET!) soft cloth after dusting it off with a soft brush. Avoid pressing the panel while you are at it.

Chassis - use a compressed can of air (will cost about Rs. 100 and lasts for one use) and blow it. Use the soft brush to dust the board, GPU, fans. Avoid hair dryers, blowers etc. since the flow contains charged particles. [/OT]

Retail disc all the way, whenever it's available. :)

Heck, I think there was an offer of getting a free copy of Gears of War with it. I think Aman had posted about it a few pages back.
