    Figured i would make this thread after Playing PA for 12 hours straight today and after a 2 Hour Game of Orbital Halley wars and the best game i have ever had.

    The game has been a broken mess ever since i purchased it just after Alpha and unplayable but now
    it seems you have somehow fixed the game and it actually runs now Yay.

    So thank you for Proving me wrong and fixing this game.
    Glad to have something to play that's somewhat like TA and Sup Com FA and not broken anymore.

    Just some info on my problem the game was broken and would not run above 20-30fps on several systems from Varying form I5's to 6 Core I7's and HD 7950s to GTX 780-780ti and a few more cards.

    Glad you're enjoying it :D

    It's really quite incredible how far Uber have managed to bring this game in such a short period of time.

    I am glad that somebody who LIKES game actually posted. Its always negative minority (majority) that posts.
    But my boss once said "don't worry when they whine on forum, start worrying when there is silence."

    People just need to learn a little patience. I just joined a gym - doesn't mean I'm going to be beating Brad in an arm wrestle next week unless I take a butt-load of steroids.

    Features are coming "soon" and the game is still fun and thriving until then :)

    Good to here your enjoying it, I must admit I've never had the game not start (on my system). There were a few bugs but hey it was alpha...

    The Pa team have really shown that they are top quality dev's.

    I read an interview with Chris Taylor where he was asked what he thaught about Pa being developed with only 1.5 million, and he just laughed.

    Even with steroids you won't be beating Brad next week. Steroids do not do anything on their own. You still need to put in the work to get stronger, and a week is nowhere near enough to get to Brad's level.

    But yeah. Patience, my friends. All good things come to those who wait. Except those that don't.

    The figure was 2 million. And he was right in laughing. PA was not developed on 2 million. The figure is most likely somewhere between 5 and 10.

    As an engineer, a few mechanical enhancements might do the trick if you don't fancy putting in the gym time... @cwarner7264 if you fancy being a test subject.... don't worry about the disclaimers it just 'standard procedure'..... :p

    I don't even understand what thing thread has turned into i'm so confused.
    Hurts self in confusion.

    Thanks and the problem was the game launching but been at a unplayable fps or crashing
    and with very varying hardware tested.Anyway Chris Taylor is honestly made some great games but i think hes and butt clown can't really respect the guy anymore personally.

    This happens relatively often, if that helps.

    Ah my mistake, I thaught the original kickstarter was for 1.5 mill...

    Still even 10 mill is fairly low compared to modern AAA games, And half that of sup com (Around 20 mill?)
    I admit fps was lower at the alpha stage, but If you played on the set planets It was still playable, And for me at least it didn't crash that often.

    SupCom was actually 10mio, if we can trust the numbers google spits out. I'd be very surprised if PA is even close to that budget.

    You guys are mistaken, I have it on good authority that Brad doesn't even lift.
