if you press Y on the PC version you can noclip through buildings and shit.

just a heads up

...  is it a bug or an actual feature?

You press Y and can walk into walls? Really?

I kind of want to get this game just to see if this actually works.

it's not in the keyboard shortcuts so I would assume it's not an actual feature.

yep, no kidding. I like the game otherwise but come on

Somewhere, the developer responsible for turning off the debug code is palming his face in shame.

@Laketown: Damn !!!! Outside from that how fares the pc version? Is it heavy or is it like Borderlands (which can run on many machines decently)

the mouse acceleration on the menus is super terrible (using the arrow keys is faster, for christ sakes) but other than that it seems like a good version of this video game

I heard Jeff was having problems because it doesn't work with a dual monitor setup.

That sounds like fun

Hahaha gold!

I have dual monitors and the game works just fine. http://i.imgur.com/0OlFw.jpg

Oh, and I can confirm that Y will either: A) Crash your game, or B) Turn on no-clip.

I thought people were joking, how do you miss that!?

No clip was probably set to Y in the debug copies and they forgot to take it out of the final game. It will probably be patched pretty quickly

Guess we know what Vinny's GotY will be this year.

How do you guys already own the game? :(

Because it's out.

@NekuSakuraba: Released on Steam at midnight Eastern time zone.

I'll be testing this later. Did he explain what the problem was? If it's just the cursor going off screen causing the program to lose focus, there's probably already a fix. Everyone who has a multimonitor setup should own a copy of DisplayFusion, which comes with a convenient cursor locker.

@MrKlorox: As I said earlier, I have two monitors and the game works fine for me. http://i.imgur.com/0OlFw.jpg

I tweeted Jeff suggesting he alt-tab in and out of the game. Typical fix for a game that doesn't like dual monitors.

running the game for the first time wish me!

The no-clip debacle is real. It scared the shit out of me the first time I hit Y and suddenly from my nose up was in the attic.

Other than that I've had one crash. Good game so far. Getting a Far Cry 2 vibe.

He said the screen went black and nothing happened and someone responded that some people with dual monitor are getting that. It is possible that the dual monitor actually has nothing to do with it.

Well that certainly streamlines my typical PC game play experience.

after playing for about 30 mins my game started to stutter like crazy! resting does nothing.

Had no problems with the game so far. I actually quite like it.

So, would you say the game is not completely terrible?

Oh boy! Sounds like a nice fat memory leak to me!

It does seem like the developers are really keeping an eye out for bugs though with that recent patch, so I'm sure they will continue sorting stuff out.

Also I'm sure it helps if you already have a strong disposition towards open-world jank too.

i should clarify resetting the game at the time did nothing. not the PC. however i came back to it and was running again so thats a plus. so i guess the popular theory is now the devs released the debug version of the game by mistake apparently there are pdb files still in the game. so yeah not going to find out whats going on until tomorrow i guess. Issues aside the game seems pretty fun so far. nice atmosphere nice combat and some pretty fucked up imagery. voice acting does suck though...

"Did you turn it off?"
"Yeah, totally."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, of course! Jeez, I'm not an idiot, man, come on."

(game is released)

"...oh. Ooooooooh no. Oh man."
"Jesus."
"I am so sorry, man-"
"Way to be professional! Real good first impression you've made for our studio!"
"Dude-"
"You fucking suck, Barry."

Haha, Barry...

I have dual monitors and no issues with the game.  AMD 6870 "best quality" settings 1920x1080 on a fairly old machine otherwise and getting 60 fps.  Pretty solid engine.

This is why I need a new gaming PC. 
Glorious.

Or stroking his hairless cat while reading this forum, laughing mennacingly.

Apparently they may have released the wrong version of the game. Looks like it might be a dev version, there's a lot more wrong with it than just the noclip.

Haha, that's hilarious.

Honestly this game so far is awesome. The mouse speed is super sluggish but you can change the sensitivity. The y button and the noclip action it does makes looking at the island without dieing awesome :D. The only glitch i have found is if your playing as the voodoo guy and you use your rage attack *z* It black screens your game. Im running it on high everything except shadows which is medium with an average 45+ fps with a i5 qosmio x505. Also people have been saying things about muti not working. It works fine for me and the pc version so i dont know if its just console or what. either way I am getting some great SS of the terrain before they patch it!

@krazy_kyle: It was a bad joke. I know it wasn't made by Techland.

More like Dev Island, amiright. 
 
They're fixing everything via patches for the EU release on Friday. I mean, it's still looking like a pretty damn good game but I find this whole situation hilarious, as well as feeling bad for the dev team.
