thejackal 46 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 I wouldn't expect it to be anything special. If your PC is from the last 1-2 years you'll be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kobe 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 Nobody will have a pre-release of the game. As jackal has said, you should be ok if your computer isn't a dinosaur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kobe 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 You have the beta version of this game? Are you a fresh-eyes tester or did you just download it from some site?Btw, what console are you talking about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vapor 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 lol, its really easy to get off of any of about 5000 irc channels, If I had a pc (or had the urge to go on my pc, downlaod it, and play it), I could. Dont think your a big h4ck3r for getting it ;). Just search on efnet, youll find it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kobe 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 I asked these questions not because I was wowed or amazed but rather because it is somewhat of a security issue if it is actually the beta version. There is a demo version available to the public so I'm hoping that you guys are confusing that build with the actual beta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vapor 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 that wasnt towards you. There are full releases out on irc, of course they are pirated and illegal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kobe 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 It's kind of discouraging that these things leak out when it takes so much hard work to create such a game only to have competitors learn of the new features before it hits the stores. Screw the pirated shit and just wait until the final version comes out guys. You won't be disappointed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GekigangarIII 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 It's kind of discouraging that these things leak out when it takes so much hard work to create such a game only to have competitors learn of the new features before it hits the stores. honestly, the competition would have to know about the new features WAY before there was an alpha/beta of the software to actually work them into their own software... but piracy blows the big fat one for sure. I'm not quite sure why companys don't insert trojans into their beta software. You could have a legitimate tester install a key that would counteract the trojan, and if someone installed it without the key you could wipe their drive. but that's just me... ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruin88 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2004 i hope its better then 2004 because 2004 was awesome , i saw 735s in one of the pictures of 2005 but they wont have the t blades and probably not xn10's ,it would be awesome to toootally customize the player and make it exaactly how you look ,i just need the xn10 and big puff of hair out the helmet and im pretty much set :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kosydar 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2004 Yeah thats always sort of bothered me. Not trying to sound all Vapor here, but how many guys in the NHL have buzzed or even just short hair? A hell of a lot more have hair that sticks out of their helmets, but games never put that in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted September 2, 2004 If they did that "face in the game" crap I hope it's easier because last time I tried that I looked like the computer face from friggin' Tron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kobe 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2004 Unfortunately yes. There wasn't enough time to do it correctly. NHL didn't want to half-ass it and make it a 2nd rate feature compared to the likes of Madden and Tiger Woods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted September 3, 2004 Hadn't stopped them before. ESPN is sounding better and better. It's been said here before, but Madden's team needs to be put on NHL and save it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kobe 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2004 Madden and FIFA receive the most budget money of all of the EA games so it's understandable that they are able to do a lot more than NHL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
