Yeah, I kept up with the patches but the patches couldn't keep up with the bugs so I shelved the game.

However It did fair a lot better than another Russian themed game - Cryostasis. That game was so buggy, and problematic, that I literally broke the disk and threw it in the trash. Objects (items) would disappear, you would get stuck in places and couldn't move, and.... the game simply lagged no matter what. A poster over at rage said the game was crippled for anyone using an ATI card so...

It wouldn't be too bad if they sold the game at half price, because they are essentially selling a half a game. But to charge full price and then make you pay extra for what is already there is just gouging.

Especially for a game that was just released! Hmmm.... extortion is usually associated the the Mafia so....

£9.99

...nah il wait for the mods to be released that unlocks them,Im not paying extra to unlock features in a game that ive already purchased once...i think 2K are just been greedy now.

Ive already got the free roam mod working and a trainer for extra fun such as disable cops etc.

Going by their forums though,ALOT of people are not happy with both the game and with how 2K are treating people and wanting to charge extra...it will seriusly hurt their reputation in the long run.

Hmm, I don't recall Cryostasis being overy buggy. But it was just after release that I played it, and it was only a once through, so I can't remember now.

Although I do recall that if you had the 360 controller plugged in, you couldn't move your character

I do remember it being laggy as hell though. It was definitely not ATI friendly... Then again, it was a PhysX 'showcase' title

I don't use game box controllers, strickly keyboard.

It certainly was laggy with my ATI card. The game publisher (1C company)) must have been proud of themselves with that one. Good job

Now I know to run far far away from their games.
