So anyone played it already?!?!?!?!? ^^ i did :D ginished the single player mode on the demo. one complaint...no 1920x1200 support BOOOOO! so i guess it will requier a hack of some sort :D

anywho the game is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! you can get it from gamespot.com and other sites.

I'm about to start it but it's weird that you can choose 16:10 and still not have it run in 1920x1200.

hey I haven't really tested this since I won't have the chance to give the demo a go till tomorrow evening, but try this:

look for preyconfig.cfg in the /base folder and make sure that the following lines match for your desired resolution:

seta r_customHeight "1200"
seta r_customWidth "1920"
seta r_aspectRatio "2" (16:10, which can also be set in the video options)
seta r_mode "-1"

without adjusting the mode, simply changing the customheight/width values will have no effect.

Hope this works, I haven't tried it and I'm not sure if any stretching will occur or whatever, if you do happen to try it, just reply with the results.

I liked the demo for it's wackyness... But I doubt I'll buy the game, not enough fun really. It's like playing a more advanced Doom 3 :)

Thanx Vulture, will give it a go when i get home today ^^. I liked the game its sweet IMO, it breaks from the usual i mean now you have people shooting at you from everywhere, in the roof or floor or wall or from inside a box which leads to another room acroos the hall. Its crazy!!

it is odd but nothing groundbreaking. wheres the next gen graphics rather than the doom3 stuff? worries me when my 754 chipped and 850 agp machine can run a brand new game maxed out at 1440 res

My R9800pro and XP3000+ can only render 1680*1050 with medium @20-30FPS in fights 10 maybe... There has to be new hardware in my lian li ;D

if you upgrade i might be interested in that 9800Pro :)

Sorry, but you would have to wait until August ;)

Cause I'm waiting for the extreme cutting of prices from the AM2 X2. (because auf Conroe).


Back to topic: Prey is a very interesting an some kind of different shooter. Full 16:10 support (fov change) is integrated - great.

i cant get the game to work properly on my GT system lol... it skews off the side of the screen, it will only play properly windowed.

the reason i say may is because i might sell my second machine :) so i dont need it if i sell. If i just sell the GT, i will want the 9800Pro :P
