Game runs too fast

I just received the game yesterday. Install went fine, but when I went to play it, everything runs at lightspeed - the intro had all of the voiceovers talking at the same time, screens went by in a flash, etc. Character creation was normal, but the moment I went to actually start the game, its back to running far too fast to play. I dont see any way of reducing the game speed in options, and its unplayable as it is.

Any ideas on what to do to correct this issue?

This sounds like an obscure hardware based issue I can't think of anything that would cause this to occur even from a game ini set up error or anything else. I haven't explored all the resources as yet but there is no scalable time factor in the settings that I can see.



Also played through the game with zero bugs and no crashes on my end so I'm thinking the game package is pretty well debugged given its stability on modern hardware, so again this makes me think its some kind of obscure user hardware issue on your end.

Okay. I may just try to reinstall and see if that corrects it. Thanks for the feedback.

I experienced the same thing on my computer, excatly as you described it with game running in lightspeed with characters talking at the same time. For me it started a while in the game all of a sudden from one cutscene to the next and affected both my main characters at different savegames.



I really hope there is a solution to this rather than reinstalling? I doubt it is a local hardware issue since it has happened to more than one person, or if it is, it is the game that screwes up the hardware.

Or its simply a case of two users with similar hardware.



As stated I haven't gone through all the game resources as yet but far as I can tell any cinematic time factor/voice over time factor would be an entirely hardware based issue, potentially old AC97 onboard sound drivers that don't handle ogg vorbis audio formats well or I've even seen cases of some games having issues in regards to audio and voice over problems being related to not having WMP11 installed.



There are a lot of factors involved that could produce results like this, but as I have not seen them at all, its hard for me to say other than to throw ideas off the top of my head from similar situations I've seen in other games in the past.

I had this problem ....  The problem started part way through the game and I had no idea what could have caused it.  Did some research and the same sort of problem occured with Bioshock and DeusEx.

I am running:

AMD 5600+
Win XP SP3
HD3870
4 Gig Ram

SOLUTION:
The solution for me was to download and install the AMD Dual Core Optimizer.  Supposedly some games had problems with how the dual cores mark time.
Worth a try if you can't think of anything else and you are running a AMD Dual Core ...

Here's a link

I don't really know what went wrong, but I played the game fine for a few hours, then the computer crashed.  After that, the game just runs at lightspeed.  I tried running only using one core, using the optimizer, and then I uninstalled and reinstalled, still no luck.  Anyone else know other solutions?
