Game Freezes

Post by ~Psychotic~ »

Not sure if this has been posted before, sorry if it has. Anyways, here's my problem.

It's happened in the past but never to the severity as it is now. I finished the game (finally) helping PDX, so I decided to replay and help WorldCorp out this time around. Got all the way to the end of the game and I'm up to the part where you gotta destroy PDX with the space station). Went to some of the floors and all went well except when I hit floor one.

Got to floor one, tried going up the nearby stairs and it froze. My save game is on floor one now and whenever I move back to the elevator or further up the stairs it just freezes randomly. Tried ghosting past to see if it was just a glitch but doesn't seem like it, freezes anywhere I move. If I leave it and don't move it freezes anyway.

I end up having to open up the Task Manager and end the process manually. I haven't been able to get this last part working sucessfully at all.

Thanks for any help in advanced.

Load the game. Pause. Type "killall alien". Resume.

Thanks, will try that when I get home.

EDIT: Unfortunately, that didn't work :(

Try "killall Phaser"

Those are those blue teleporting ones. Unfortunately, if you combine mine and Jonas commands, there is barely anything left to fight...
Can somebody tell me how I can get a custom avatar?

Well there's still the Stalkers.

Muhuhuhahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa...

(I like the stalkers. They take me by surprise and freak me out every fucking time I meet one, even though I placed them myself.)

Did you add MORE aliens to that area for the last objective? Because if not, I've killed all of them already. Shall try the codes anyway.

Yeah, but there's only like, 1 of him in the entire first level of the HTTP. But I have to admit they are quite awesome. More so than those $#@$ teleporting bastards I keep shooting at and only hit air.

No, however if your game crashes, that means there HAS to be a survivor around, desperately trying to look for you. You could try waiting a minute or 10 and see what class the error produced gives you (I am going to guess PhaserXX).

The first time I saw a stalker I got really scared, but since it died so easily the rest didn't really scare me. I tell you, shotgun to the head is the best cure for fright :)
