Indeed
Or at 90000 cycles it runs at the same speed as it would run at for example 30000? There is an optimal number of cycles for each pc and game, increasing beyond will slow down the game again. So 90000 cycles could be above the optimal number, and the same performance could be achieved with a lower number...

Anyone have the playstation version of Syndicate Wars here? I need help with it! How in the world do I research the persuadertron 2, displacertron, and graviton gun with the EuroCorp Syndicate? I completed the game loads of times and never researched it. What am I doing wrong????

To research the persaudertron II, you must have a high number of research and persuaded points before the mission you eliminate Maribelle De Saxo.

I think this game is awesome. Maybe it wasn't as good as the first one for it's time but SW was pretty good. At the very least it's potential was incredible. This game could have been GOD. Some changes were stupid like energy instead of ammo. The first one looked crisp but it's colour scheme sucked. Too many shades of brown. Syndicate Wars entire presentation, from it's login screen to it's cyber punkish grey, purple and black colours, futuristic and sterile looking environments, bloodied corpses, was perfect. I felt like I was in a horrific future. The sound of the voices was really cool. And just the whole concept of Eurocorp vs Church of the new Epoch (one of the coolest named factions in history of video games) was wild. Yes, the sprites looked like crap and the textures were garbage. So what? You have to get over the graphics to enjoy this. Bullfrog or EA could have released the game just as it was with improved graphics a few years later and it would have been great. This game could be really good if done right. EA missed out big time. Molyneux is f'd up now and EA are worthless. They're not going to do a proper sequel. So, I'm going to do it.

I used to be a big fan of the original syndicate on the amiga. I used to play it so much I actually managed to compleate the atlantic accelerator mission armed with nothing but a pistol and a energy shield, though only the once after 10,000 failed attempts LOL. my favourate stress relief was massacaring hunddreds of civilians in a bloody rampage

anyway thanks to a little good fortunate I reciently managed to get ahold of a copy of syndicate wars with the manuel after the best part of a deccade searching for it and am about to try it out in a hope it works, unlike the copy of america revolt I managed to get my hands on for the amiga (stupid degraded disk :angry: )

Indeed, no download for this one.
You can't download this game, it's protected.


Later ... later... much later maybe .....

Hello, I tried playing this game on Xp.
Dosbox worked but way to slow in hi-res
Got it to run with vdmsound , but the colors are inverted in the main menu and when changing to hi-res ingame.
Does anyone no what causes this and how I can fix it?
Thanks!

(I can play it by using virtual machine and emulation windows98. But that's not perfect because the movies are very choppy etc.)

:nuts:

Tricks for running resource demading games are about halfway through the post.
