Stranglehold

Just got this game, played for a minute or so, seems to be pretty good. runs smooth(don't ask about fps please, that just annoys the crap out of me) on my 8600, 1280*800 res. Has some elements of matrix like slowing time down, jumping and shooting people, etc.

Any others that played that game?

 

Yea i've played the demo, its awesome. I definitely want to buy it when I get the time.

 

Just the demo so far. Working on getting the full version!

A question. There arent any options in the demo, hoping the full version has options for this though. Can you assign your dirrection to the mouse rather than using keyboard for "veiw (cam)", "dirrection" and then mouse for "crosshair". Follow me?

If not, then, what im wondering is, can you assign setting to make control more like max payne was, rather than seming like a console control layout.

 

I just finished the demo literally.. It was sweet.
Yeah, there isn't much option in the demo.
I have to warn other to not get this game YET, if you have vista and only one gig of ram. It's not going tobe as enjoyable as you think it would be.
The demo used all my one gig, task mangr showed it used 600mb only caz that's all i have avaliable, and together with vista they used close to 2 gig of page file O_O. lolz. shuttering/HDD loading lag everywhere, but yes when it is not loading, it was smooth as silk. Good Game imho.

 

You can change the controls in the full game but in the graphics section there is only 3 settings...
1) Resolution
2) Dynamic shadows (on or off)
3) Decals (on or off)
Check the bottom of this page to see how my 7950GTX performs in it.

 

yup, agree with maksin01... still wanting to play the game, gotta find some free time first tho...

 

Do you guys know if you can use a controller in the full version of this game?

 

Just as bad as the demo. There isnt crap for controls config!! Im really not used to this console type movements and that is ruining the game for me so far! Im more used to the way it was with the old max payne. You turned dirrections with the mouse which also controled the crosshair.

Anyways, im fairly certain that i have my vista setup and tweaked pretty darn well, but as it was with the demo, it sometimes gets jumpy and hangs for few seconds here and there. I tried to lower the game res, but that didnt help.
