<div class="IPBDescription">Party time</div> Thanks to a wonderful bug in punkbuster that was just recently fixed, I wasn't able to play Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow until recently. It'd be nice to get some games going with people who know the words "team" and "work" and perhaps "teamwork."

Come into #nsscpt and we'll set up a few games.

    God, I wish I could join you - using thermal goggles causes my PC to crash.

    Are the Federal Bank / River Mall levels available in the PC version? If so, are they free? (Xbox users pay £3 / $5 for them)

    They don't come with the game and I don't know if they're available or not.

    Come on, SOMEONE has to have this

    I'm buying it... eventually. I hate spending money, so until then I just get to play Deus Ex and wish I had Pandora Tomorrow. The demo was fun!

    I'm too ticked off to play. I bought the game, and when I try to install it, after the 2nd CD is done, it says the wrong volume is in and to put the first CD back in, and when I try opening the tray my computer freezes!

    I've had that problem with <b>lots</b> of games recently, Surge. I'm not sure what is causing the problem, but it's been common enough for me to think it's a copy protection or windows issue.

    Been playing the game since day 1, really a fantastic concept, can't stress enough how much fun it is (when you get past some of the technical problems the game has been having.) Unfortunately the community is kinda small, but we should all help fix this problem by getting as many NS'ers onboard as possible <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    The latest patches have really cleaned up a lot of technical issues, and I would be surprised to hear of anyone not able to play it at this point.

    I've got it installed here, and while I would play, I'm still majorly PO'd at the gall they have to put it on a seemingly DIFFERENT engine than the SP game! Why is it on SP, I can power the thing pretty damned well, but MP I've gotta turn the specs WAAAAAAY down?!

    Yeah, same here, with the demo at least. I'm not sure what it is, although it might just be you notice the slow framerate a bit more in multiplayer than single player, because the latter is much faster paced.

    Reason being that different departments of UBI worked on the single and multiplayer aspects of the game. I think France did SP and Shanghai did multiplayer, but not too sure about that. In fact, I'm probably wrong.
    Some rumors have circulated to the effect that the multiplayer is also just a port of the xbox version, and as such hasn't been completely optimized. Lots of people, including myself, have pc's with more than enough power to handle the game, but even so are being limited to around 30-40fps in certain maps. C'est la vie <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Now then. I understand I need to pwn some of you punks online. The name is Glitch. I'm going to sleep now, but you can expect to see me online quite soon...

    [EDIT 1] Screw sleep. This is too damn cool to <i>not</i> play.
    [EDIT 2] Glitch was taken, so I stuck with Dragon_Mech
