Sonic 295 Posted September 2, 2007 Far Cry, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Rayman Raving Rabbids are from UbiSoft and yes they are indeed free to download. However from what I understand they are not free of advertising, these games are released with adware in them. And on top of that you will need a Ubi.com account and you must live in the USA to play the games. Share this post Link to post
hagren 0 Posted September 3, 2007 Download for FarCry didnt even work for me (after waiting like two hours in the line), and yes, it doesnt work outside the US, which is weird, considering that Ubi is French. How *insert cuss word here* is that?! Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted September 3, 2007 I got FC off FilePlanet... err, well, am getting I should say. Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 6 Posted September 3, 2007 Far Cry crashes every 5 minutes or so for me... Meh. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted September 3, 2007 I got FC working fine. And I don't mind ad-supported content, but could they at least random the ads a little? Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 6 Posted September 4, 2007 I got FC working fine. And I don't mind ad-supported content, but could they at least random the ads a little? Looks like a fun game, sadly it crashed for me. Don't really feel like e-mailing to get the "reboot, reinstall drivers, you're an idiot not me" treatment. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted September 4, 2007 Yeah why email, when we can all do that in the hardware forums instead? Share this post Link to post
Rider 0 Posted September 5, 2007 So I got C&C95 from there, and installed it. All works fine except for one thing... the audio speed is screwing up. By that I mean that it constantly varies in speed, then slow, then a bit faster, then slow again. It's really friggin' annoying to play like that and my buddy who also downloaded the same thing (in fact I got the images from him, since he'd already downloaded them) has no problems whatsoever. We're both using the same compatibility settings, both running Windows XP. Is this a known problem or is it 'tough luck buddy' for me? Share this post Link to post
JahSpoR 0 Posted September 5, 2007 DOH!!!11 Just bought Far Cry for about 12€ that's sucky Share this post Link to post

We're both using the same compatibility settings, both running Windows XP. You most likely have different hardware such as CPU/Video/Sound compared to your friends computer so different performance is expected. If its the sound causing problems try updating the sound drivers for your sound card. Share this post Link to post
Rider 0 Posted September 6, 2007 Yeah I just tried that, didn't work. I also tried reinstalling the game from the other CD (the NOD disc) in case something b0rked there, but the problem persists... Although I have noticed that as I CTRL+ALT+DEL (task manager for me) out of the game, for a few seconds the sound flips back to normal speed. I found this out as I was messing with the priority during the intro scene. (that btw, didn't work VERY well, I got the intro to play a little faster, but nothing near normal speed) And that while my PC is superior to my friends machine in every way... Edit: Nevermind I found the problem, some guy at the EA forums suggested to disable hardware acceleration with sound (via dxdiag) and that worked perfectly! Thanks anyway Share this post Link to post
