It's kinda tricky with win 8 try Win XP service pack 3 or Win 7 as Comp. mode (sometimes you have to try other modes)

Nope, still nothing. It looks like I'm not the only one having the problem. Might just need time to have TTG make a patch

Like I wrote you just have to find the right mode my Lap worked with vista just try the otherones too sometimes win 95 works on win 7 i think ... just try the other ones too

I've tried literally every single compatibillaty option I have. NONE of them worked!

I should point out I'm using a laptop. Is that a problem?

Well now what do I do? I've tried every compatible mode, even on no-compatibility, I'm an admin on my computer, and I still can't play! The farthest I can get is "click anywhere to begin", "connecting", and "loading".

Apparently it doesnt work for some people I dunno why, it worked for me and a few friends but i have a theory there was a update today try to restart steam and check for errors then try some of the modes again if it still crashes ... well guess you have to wait for the patch:/

I've looked in another forum, and apparently a guy who's using the same graphics card as me, Intel(R) HD Graphics, can't run it either. I assume it's the graphics card that's the problem.

[Problem?]

so basically if we have Intel HD graphics, then we just wasted $5?
