The EB Games a couple blocks from me should be getting it tomorrow. Oh they hate to see my coming.

I usually get there when they open (between 9 and 10 depending what flakes are working) and they always tell my they don't get deliveries until after noon. So then I go next door to the Gold Dust Lounge and drink, returning every 30 minutes or so to ask them if the game has been delivered yet.

By the time I get it I'm usually pretty wasted and they are so sick of me that they make sure to get me out the door as quick as possible.

Works every time.

San Francisco is a worthless piece of filth that deserves nothing less than total annihilation. Fuck I hate this fucking shit-hole of a city and all the loser assholes that think this city isn't completely fucked are devoid of all morals and intelligence.

EB Games, Comp USA and Best Buy in San Francisco don't get NWN2 until tomorrow. This is the first time that a computer game wasn't available here on its release date and it just goes to show that this piss ridden city is actually getting worse.

Not to mention the fact that the new sequel to Final Fantasy was released today and the EB Games was full of greasy little pimple-faced shit-heads that skipped school to go wait in line for their fucking idiotic game. Fuck Final Fantasy and all those morons who dressed up like FF characters, which you know they would have done regardless of whether it was Halloween or not.

That's it I'm buying all my products from Amazon from now on, fuck supporting local businesses, fuck the economy and fuck stores. What kind of fucking capitalist society do I live in where I can't give people my fucking money for their fucking product?!?!? Stores treat their customers like criminals, they never have anything in stock, they don't answer their phone and the employees are incompetent little thieves.

Well I checked out the Bioware boards. Apparently no one has received this game...

Some people have downloaded it from Direct 2 Drive but I want the Limited Edition and an actual physical manual instead of a .pdf. Well, computer games have always been available on their ship date, I guess the Atari dinosaur is just giving everyone one last "screw you" before it dies.

However, everything I said about San Francisco is still true.

I should be getting the box around 2 PM Pacific time, I'll post the requirments on the box then.

Here are the System Requirments listed on the Direct 2 Drive site:
Quote
Neverwinter Nightsâ?¢ 2 Download Minimum System Requirements

    * Operating System: Windows XP
    * Processor: Intel Pentium 4Ã?® 2.0GHz or AMD AthlonÃ?® equivalent
    * Memory: 512MB
    * Hard Disk Space: 4.6GB free
    * Video: at least a 128MB DirectXÃ?® 9.0c compatible video card that supports at least Shader Model 2.0
    * Sound: DirectXÃ?® 8.1 compatible sound card or higher
    * DirectXÃ?®: DirectXÃ?® 9.0c (included) or higher

Supported Video Card Chipsets:

    * ATI Radeon X1900 series
    * ATI Radeon X1800 series
    * ATI Radeon X1600 series
    * ATI Radeon X1300 series
    * ATI Radeon X850 series
    * ATI Radeon X800 series
    * ATI Radeon X700 series
    * ATI Radeon X600 series
    * ATI Radeon X300 series
    * ATI Radeon 9800 series
    * ATI Radeon 9600 series
    * ATI Radeon 9500 series
    * NVIDIA GeForce 7900 series

    * NVIDIA GeForce FX 5700 series
    * NVIDIA GeForce FX 5600 series

Also notice that the only accepted operating system is Windows XP.

Yikes really?  Well I'll be using a Geforce 4400Ti until I upgrade with Vista.  I'm pretty sure the game will run fine on lower resolutions.

Took about 5 minutes for me to download/install the patch.

Mo, I seriously doubt you'll be able to even run NWN2 with a 4400, I don't believe the 4000 series has pixel shader 2.0. My 5200 didn't even have it.

And now for my NWN2 trials:

I got 2 copies, unfortunately the EB Games in San Francisco didn't get the collector's edition (even though the one in the next town over did) so I just bought the normal version. Fuck Atari, they don't get my extra money because they suck too much to properly distribute a game.

Yikes i'm using the same card  :o alltough I was able to run oblivion on medium settins  :huh: it should work normal if you have 1 gig ram and a 2.5 ghz processor i think i mean I saw a gameplay movie of nwn 2 and the graphics were pretty much the same like nwn1 only with a lil bit modifications.

@Mo

I think you'll need to upgrade the 3d-card lol it has to have a 2.0 shader if you don't wan't to spend a lot of money a radeon 9800 of a GeForce 5800 or smt would be a good choice....

Dammit all!  Well I have a junky geforce 6200 lying around some where. I'm sure that has Shader 2.0

Anyway I got the game! First impressions (obviously pre-installation):

Cool new races and classes! Deep gnomes rock! WTF they put Issac's missile storms back in the game.  Wonder what they were smoking.  Grrr they put the screwed up Bigby's spells back in too.  Wonder how many bugs are flying around lol...probably tons.
Also I was a little annoyed to see NWN2 will be using Lamespy again...man. Lastly, 7 disk?!?! C'mon give us a DVD-ROM already, it's 2006 for god's sake.

I shall install and attempt to play soon.

Ah Mo you missed my foaming rant on the Bioware forums many months ago about NWN2 using Gamespy!

I got the DVD version because the Collectors Edition wasn't available at the EB Games in SF (though it did arrive in nearby locations) so I'm not surprised that various versions of the game weren't at random locations.

Let us all hope that the dead, festering carcass of Atari plagues us no further.

One thing I had hoped for from NWN2 better music and sounds, as well as more complexity to voices and more things they say... That the fact is otherwise is quite pathetic.

Ok well I've been reading some reviews of the game, plus some threads on the bioware forums.  Seems as though NWN2 is basically in beta right now.  Obsidian devs basically admit that fact when they say "Life begins at Patch 2" (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewtopic.html?topic=509556&forum=109&sp=15).
I guess it's Atari to blame for cheaping out on real beta testers, instead making consumers doing it for them.

I'll install my geforce 6200 tomorrow and attempt to run the game.  However I am not expecting very good performance.  Let's hope it's playable.  If not I guess I'm gonna wait a month or so before I get into this one.  This is not what I was hoping for, as my new system was gonna be made for Oblivion not NWN2 lol.

Side not: No day and night cycle?? Someone at Obsidian better get on that one cause that really...really sucks.  Not to mention it will really downgrade  Persistant Worlds.  I'm hoping to settle into a nice RP server for a while a get a nice morpg fix (note the 1 m as i don't care much for the massive part).  If anyone starts playing at a good one let me know, it would be great fun to have lots of us together in a PW.

im still at fort locke after i found the commander taan ( or so)
and just thinkin of remakin my warlock, cos its dumb being a dexer in the campaign and warlock only has a few spells (that you can infinite cast but you get get spell lvls each 5 instead 3 and only 4 spell lvls) so you end with 2 or 3 spells per lvl, i like the warlock but not being a dexer with it (since testing classes in a little mod i found out theres a battle caster feat for bards and warlocks that lets u cast in medium armor without spell failure :))
and i love the new halfling subclass they have fast learning like humans 1 extra feat woot!! (at least it has few good  things after they messed up nearly the whole game :P)
