Whats with this game? I am having major issues and as a result cannot play at all frown

The game will hang within the first 30 seconds of being loaded. Sometimes thats long enough toload a game then freeze, most of the time not. I still hear in game sound effects and if i 'move'my character i hear him walking.

Ive tried the obvious to get this working and nothings happening. I was originally able to play the tutorial area without crashing and when i reinstalled the game i was able to play that area again, the crashing only starts after the second area has begun.

Please help, im feeling pretty distraught over this, i will probably try and get my money back if all else fails.

Regards,

Sensay

EDIT: Machine Specs..

2.8Ghz amd dual core
1GB Ram
9800GT
Trust sc 5250 5.1 Sound Card
Win XP

Did you try everything in this thread?
And there have been A LOT of issues with older AMD processors...A lot of us can't get the game running at all. We are still waiting for a fix.

I'm getting tempted to...though was really anxious to play and am holding out for a fix soon. Your problem does sound different than ours though, so maybe someone else will help you out.

It sounds like a non-proper "language hack", well, symptoms is the same. Ofc, I know, you have Benelux english version and there is no reason to change subtitles, but isn't fun? An issue of "language hack" mostly appears in original english version!

What do you mean?

There is no language hack here i assure you. Is there no update to these problems? Its REALLY inconvenient trying to take this game back and i honestly dont want to! I want to play it..

Ive managed to get to the point where the game doesnt crash in the menu anymore but as soon as i load a game and try and move it crashes. As stated above, input is still accepted at this point (i can move, jump attack etc) but the image on screen is stuck.

PLEASE HELP

try different drivers. I get the best results with 182.5, the latest nvidia drivers made my game stutter, maybe it causes your game to freeze
