Yep, it's this thread again: FATAL ERROR: Renderer #0

@Projectfaded:
So it's Frictional Games' fault when you don't bother to check the requirements for the game before buying it?
It clearly says on their website "Video Card: Radeon HD/GeForce 6" and the "info!" message says:

Integrated graphics, such as the Intel GMA 950, might not work. Low cost video cards may perform worse, or not work at all, even if they are much newer than old cards such as the Radeon 9600 (released 2003).

Radeon 9600-9800 should work, X100 and X1000 series should work with the exception of lower end cards.

And even if you did check, or have another graphics card, the fact that every computer can have multiple setups (hardware- and software-wise) it is IMPOSSIBLE to GUARANTEE it will immediately run without problems on your system. They can't testrun their game on every possible setup, but they do their best and give as much information and help as they can.

Come on, be fair. Your frustration is understandable and the need to vent or find a scapegoat is oftentimes uncontrollable, but it's not their fault really.

No.
Its very understandable behaviour. They have taken money for a product which is simply unusable; I too have fallen into the same trap. It is actual bullshit to say buying and upgrading to an amazing set up will not allow the game to simply "work," yes it should.

IF the developers had kept to direct sales and such; as a small company a problem like this would be acceptable. That's why similar companies fail. To release a game with such structured "requirements" on steam is utter naive stupidity. Congratulations IF, YOU got the game to work.

THEY programmed the game. it is THEIR fault of such utter shit compatibility. THOUSANDS of people have the same problem as me, the original poster and the ranter; and each of those people have spent anything from £6.50 - £15 for the privilege of unusable code. So lets face it they're getting money for nothing.

It is an amazing game and concept.
It should be an epic experience.
but fuck me how shit can you get? "I'm sorry but this MASSIVE MARKET SECTION can have fuck all, but we'll take money"

Its been months; it needs sorting; it needs updating. Its a pathetic joke.

UTTER BS.

I have also just recently purchased this game as well, after seeing what it is. How soon can we expect either frictional or intel to do something about this? Either Intel needs to upgrade or frictional has to do something with the game. After reading this post, it can't just be like this forever can it?
