Title: Rave : Video card!
Post by: garbon on May 06, 2009, 11:40:48 PM
I bought myself a shitty little video card for my desktop pc (i've been on onboard graphics) and wow.  Everything is so much better.  :cool:

Now you are able to play EU3.

Contrary to popular acclaim, it actually ran before. Not very well, but no worse than CK a few centuries in.

Good to see another upgrader. I finally got out from under the yoke of onboard graphics with a Radeon X1650 (this is an older computer, after all), and it rocked. :hug:

Don't worry. I'm not tainting your gaming; I pretty much only use it for San Andreas and some 3d modeling.

For some reason Languishites feel the need to confess all manner of personal defects and failures.

I got EU3 complete recently. The game is fun. Runs well. Had my first crash eight after putting a temple in every province of North America, about two hundred clicks.  :cry:

The pirated are annoying, so I edited them out. Tariff effficiency is enough reason to build a navy.
The AI is okay. Reinforcement really helps the AI out. Their armies actually have to be killed in battle. I still have not been able to break onto the continent as England.
