Omxorgs.

So infintiely awesome! I haven't got it yet, stupid australian release date is the 14th >.> Anyone else got it/gotten it?

I do We got it yesterday and it is indeed awesomeness, the graphics are simply amazing and the level of interaction is way above what I was expecting. It's just a lot of fun and a lot more well built than the first one. My bf was having fun with the armies and stuff but I'm more of a creature person so I don't really know much about the army side of stuff.

I have the tiger as my creature and you would not believe how fast he runs, he can cross a town in a couple of seconds x) Just make sure you run the patch before you start playing though as it's pretty unplayable without it with tons of bugs.

Is it anymore user friendly than the first one? I bought the original, played for an hour, turned it off, and lost the game. I just could not get used to the controls, etc. It was so incredibly awkward to me. Rather unfortunate, since I do enjoy this style of game quite well.

Be sure before you buy it that you have the system requirements. My mistake was asuming I did. I have a pretty new computer and I assumed I would be able to play this. You need a good graphics card compatable with pixel shader 1.1 because you CAN'T play at all without this. It just WON'T let you. I thought maybe It would still run but I would compromize some detail. I was willing to do it, but you simply can't play at all! You also need at LEAST 512 of memory and from what I see reported, even people with a gig of memory are having problems with frame rates and lag and stuff. This is a really complicated game to run, and if you have an older computer that you have beefed up or something and you have temperature problems that can effect your gameplay. If your computer overheats you'll be freezing up when it overheats.

It scans your system to see if the game will work.

Also, Blank and White 2 is awesome, I can run it, and I'm on The Second Japanese Island.

My wolf is awesome, here are some screenshots:

Ooh, so excited about this.

Are the first creature selections still Ape, Tiger, Cow?

[Trick]

You pick from Ape, Lion, Wolf and Cow at the beginning and you can download the Tiger to pick him too


Clickie for larger =) Oh and the story of a drunk tiger:

Alcohol makes me feel awesome!
Urgh, I don't feel too good...
Really bad actually *faint*
So alcohol is bad - who knew, huh.

I'm playing through with the Tiger which is a lot of fun, he goes mental when fighting using the lightning miracle and swatting the armies with trees... but I'm very much a creature person so most of my screenies are of my tiger doing funny things x)

Running the game at: High at 1280x1024
Specs are: AMD64 3400+, 1GB DDR400 RAM, BFG GeForce 6800GT OC.

Can't play it on my laptop though as there aren't enough widescreen resolutions to choose from :/

I got it last week.. but I think I'm gonna have to start over b/c I didn't download the patch and I think I read the read messes up saved games or something. *sigh*

The game is uber buggy though so I do hope that patch fixes it.
I started off with the cow and then made another with the wolf.
I'm not sure which one I'll pick if I have to start again.
Even though wolves are my fav.. that cow is just so darn cute!

dang, 4 things failed ^-^

Doesn't matter though, still runs heh!

I'm not playing it until after my exams though, its sooo good though. I'm going to be a cow, no way i could be anything else.
