*Pokes head in....*
#32940 - 08/22/07 01:39 AM

Hey all! Blitz here from City of Heroes/Villains! ;p

Nono, I'm not Booting anyone in the Head....yet.....but a friend of mine has insisted I check this game out, saying it's weird sense of humor would be right up my alley....

So, I'm downloading the thing as I type this, and with a little luck(and despite a nearly 5 year old PC still running strong), I'll be lurking around shortly!

Humor?! Humor?! OH NO! Statesman is on to our utopia! Here come the Rikti!!!



Welcome - I am sure you will find the sense of humor in DR quite... umm... refreshing? This is quite easy to pick up, play, and have a ball in.

(I used to be a CoH regular but haven't been there for various reasons since I10 hit Open Testing)

Here's how you can access Dungeon Runners' Public Test Server:

1. Visit ftp.dungeonrunners.com.

2. Download "DungeonRunnersPTSSetup.exe".

3. Run the installer.





it will have the test build on it... not sure if .89 has been loaded or not.

Well, it downloaded/installed fine...maybe it's just me, but...; granted, my PC is nearly 5 years old, but it's components are still considered decent....

The game was stuttering badly at some points...and the ingame music was really stuttering at times...I checked my DSL connection, which seemed fine...maybe I just logged in at a bad time?

Visual issues aside, it's off to a decent start, but the targeting/combat system is gonna take some getting used to!

I definitely do enjoy the bits of humor I've run across so far (Baby Seal skin leather armor?!? Heheh!)...think I'll give it a chance and see how it goes!

My comp is a 1.8 g processor... was running on a 64 meg vid card but have made the jump to a 128 now:) 768 ram and runs fairly descent.
I generally notice a jump in lag spikes when a new build goes to the PTS server. You may have to play around with some setting for video and sound. And if I remember right I had probs in Dew Valley on mine because of the forest... and basically any forests still give me twitches:)

Well, my comp runs fine in forests, but I still hate the fact that green rats can hide in the thick bushes. Foliage at 0 24/7.
