--- Comment #18 from Chris Spencer spencercw@googlemail.com 2007-10-03 10:31:16 --- Ok here is the result of my testing with the new version:
1. The game page faults after the EA video if the ALSA driver is enabled (which is very unfortunate because there is no sound with OSS). (Countless tries with various different settings.) 2. I still can't join any games, I tried 5 servers, and they all got stuck on the connecting screen. With and without the patch. 3. The game now loads without having to delete ~/My Games. Though this might be because I have disabled ALSA.
Also the intro videos are no longer skippable, but I'm fairly sure that's by design.
So in summary, it's worse than before. :(
