[quote]Also, it is a very subpar port, menus don't support Double Clicking, scroll wheel doesn't, there is no way to change the mouse sensitivity for Christ sakes; the "camera movement" option does nothing.

That and the fact that i need to rename my .exe in order to get AA to work, half of the time it doesn't work because Steam doesn't like me messing with the exe.


Scroll wheel/double clicking I agree with, but they are minor issues for me... the menus are completely mouse-driven otherwise. The camera movement thing worked for my mouse, not sure what your issue might be there. As for AA, forcing it through nHancer works for me, no renaming needed using unreal engine 3 profile. I am actually supersampling it as I said... if you have ATI and need to rename it, that sucks, but you probably should have bought a DRM free retail copy which you had more control over ;)

And I never said it was a perfect port, but I do think it is a good one and much better than the original.

And both ME games are ten times better on PC than the technical abortions they are on Xbox.

Yes, i will take what i have over the console version any day :)

Also i dont know if it has been posted in this thread already, but here is a support thread over at Bioware's forums regarding this problems:

http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/106/index/800237

If you guys can post in that thread your concerns, we might just get enough notoriety for them to want to include it in a future patch.

Guess I'll wait to get this till the EyeFinity issue gets resolved.. what a shame.. considering that BioWare had great support for Dragon Age.

Here's hoping a patch resolves the FOV and ui issues.

Off to go buy this now. I can deal with one monitor for now.

To be fair it still doesn;t work correctly, objects popping in and out and the side screens flashing occasionally, nevermind the memory leaks.
Although great game.

I'd rather they make an attempt and give us something that's not perfect rather than not bother at all. Multi-mon users aren't a bunch of cry-babies, we know there's pretty much no game out there with perfect support (ok Far Cry 2 post-patch was perfect on my 3840x1024, but I'm sure it would break on other resolutions and they didn't have it at release time :P) so we'd rather have something than nothing.

So if they really working on a patch for ME2 the chances would be great to get another Patch for ME1 i think because of the same Engine huh?

I doubt it. Do you really find it bad? I think it's fine, personally.
