To those who purchased a key from cdkeyshere: How long did it take to receive your key?

Got my key in 30 minutes after payment. DL now.

[Ego]

2 hours 15 minutes in and on Chapter 6
Maybe it is a 6 hour game
Normal difficulty setting

I'm playing on survivalist, I"m on chapter 8, and I have played for at least 7 hours.

[spyre]

I didn't get my key til today, I think because they had gone home for the day just after I ordered it. Blah they should be working 24/7 damn it!. Anyway downloading the game now.

[acroig]

Anyway downloading the game now.

Same but it will take 9+ hours @ 300kb/s according to EA DL Manager.

[KingRoLo]

Just bought the key from http://www.cdkeyshere.com/ as posted before. Key appears to be fine and am downloading from the eadownloader.

[spindoctor]

whole bunch of people from here bought grey market keys for this game

[Ego]

Well, 60$ or 50 euros is outrageous, imo, so until I hear that those key are stolen or something, I'll probably use sites like g2play in the future, too.

Yep, and it shows what the real market is (if you ask me).
At $60, no way, especially when a deep price cut is around the corner.
At $24 - $30, no brainer.

And I'm someone who bought it twice (PS3 and PC).

BTW, I got my key within a 1/2 hour after purchase.

g2plays been around since 2007, the cdkeyshare since 2010.

Took a chance on cdkeyshere since they were cheaper.

[spyre]

Yeah they aren't stolen they buy them from Russia and places like that where games are sold cheaper.

Only issue with that is if EA decides to pull a Steam and tell you your key is not authorized in your area but since the game does not require a constant verification we should be ok.

well actually you have to login to your ea account everytime you launch the game. however, ea cd keys aren't region locked so they cannot know where the game was purchased, and thus there's very little risk of something going wrong.

[GanjaStar]

its time to say

[Ego]

I have a sneaking suspicion this thread will suddenly become more populated since the keyboard drivers are out.

edit.
Holy crap, Fairlight, haven't heard of those dudes in a while

Cool, thanks.

WUT?

think harder

This is going over me. If you care to explain please do so.

Some keyboards need to have drivers installed, otherwise their extra functions will not be detected by windows.

the pirated version has been released

[spyre]

A euphemism for a pirate download.

Thanks, had not heard that one before.

[Ego]

Really ?
I got the expression from Rage, myself

[Martin3]

Thanks, had not heard that one before.

What exactly have you been doing for 22K+ posts?

[KingRoLo]

All downloaded fine from cdkeyshere and i played literally just 1 minute of SP before i had to turn it off because the ridiculous FOV was making me dizzy/nauseous.

Is there a hack out there for this?

[KAC]

Game's dope. I almost came when Isaac lands after a joy ride in chapter 7 .

Almost towards end of chapter 7 and about 3.45 hours in. Loving every minute of this game.

i doubt it. first game had a pretty low fov too, and it never got fixed. sometimes i think i'm just getting old and my eyes can't take the strain anymore

Really!? Had not seen that.

Mostly trolling.

I played the 1st DS as well but i think its been decreased even more with DS2. Arrgghh.

It won't be done for another 4 hours and I have to copy it from my office PC to a thumb drive to take it home. That will take time as well.

[WhAt3v3r]

50% downloaded. Bought from cdkeyshere. No problems. Can't wait!!!

[Quickstrike]

Whatever protection is being used on DS2 seems to be working great. No crack at all, just like HAWX 2. Meanwhile the anger on the yarrr boards is hilarious

Gotta have faith in the system .

[Tork64]

Just finished it, said this before but Dead Space series is by far one of my favorite, no other game has made me think about playing with the sound turned off lol, glad I didn't though.

[bob saget]

vsync disabled in game. forced vsync through CCC, and frames >100. not sure if its working or not.

very fun game though. combat wise, you have to play it slightly different than the first.

[H001iGAN]

first time I forced AA thru Nvidia Inspector I had all the settings all the way up including shadows on very high, the game run @ 60 fps, I thought the AA was on (16xCSAA) because when I turned off ingame setting AA it didn't change at all. I read here that when shadows are on very high it doesn't work, so I went back to inspector to reset the DS2 profile to see how it works without any AA. back in game no AA at all. back to inspector set AA on 8XQAA, ingame I'm gettin 40 fps AA is definitely on with shadows on very high, even 16xCSAA goes down to 40.
I would like to know how to get it back to 60 fps+AA
edit: reset inspector profile, redo the profile and set to 16xcsaa. In game plays @60 fps and AA is working + very high shadows, how are you guys not getting AA? I'm on the latest whql @ 1600p.
edit 2, right it doesn't work right, I thought it wouldn't show AA when very high shadows were selected, instead AA works fine, and volumetric shadows disappear.

[KAC]

5 hours in. Chapter 10 half way. Game is dope.
Gameplay enhancements are subtle but eventually make for a much better game. Revisiting Ishumura is frickin' A!

[KingRoLo]

Does the FOV not bother anyone?

[KAC]

Not me. FOV in RE5 bothered me a lot more, however, I got over it and played the game without FOV hacks. In this game, FOV is purposeful. Having it differently would just halven the scare factor.
