Wasn't there supposed to be new drivers by now?

    The NDA is a pretty tight gag. The last card I beta tested for was the G450.
    Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.

      Do you know if the patch that's supposed to improve the netcode and fix other bugs in Serious Sam will be released for FE and SE, or only SE? IMO, FE is a lot more fun in coop mode but the netcode is pretty bad. The Great Pyramid level is impossible to play because of the constant "too many bad syncs" errors
      No, I don't have any information like that. Did you inform Croteam about that?

        Got ya. How was it that you got that gig? I wouldn't mind beta-testing the linux drivers, assuming they have any (they claimed they were showing beta ones at SIGGRAPH) Though at this point I probably wouldn't be the right one to do it, since I'm sure they'd like to test the Triplehead features and such, plus all the other software I have in my linux box is beta anyhow (Gnome 2 stuff) Well good luck to all us *nix users...

          I haven't informed them but I don't think it's necessary. Seems like half of the posts at the Seriouszone forums (where Croteam occasionally posts) are begging for the patch or complaining about bugs

Secondly Croteam shouldn't be telling you squat and if they do it's violating their NDA... they aren't Matrox, nor do they test as much as us BBz do. Or for that matter have any inkling as to when drivers will be released... they can only guess.
            So now your better than Croteam? A fully fledged game development house? How arragant can you get?!?!

            Get off your high horse, you are not the be all and end all of Matrox BB. If you are so good why dont you actually work for them in their head office as an engineer? Huh?

              Chill out. You're taking something way too personally here. The fact is that this person is claiming a leak from Croteam. It's also a fact that the BBz go through more drivers than almost any other person outside of Matrox.

              And why isn't he working for Matrox? Hell, how about "Why work for Matrox?" Lower pay, layoffs, and a relocation to Canada, for starters.

                LOL whats wrong with Canada?

                I am quite fond of Serious Sam, even bought the game, and I dont like to see some random mod in a forum who says he knows more about stuff than they do. At least word it more profesionally.
