Get the 2006 port of this (Activision doesn't care about their customers)

The 2006 port of this game is miles ahead in quality it also has 1080p as a resolution don't support this ♥♥♥♥ and give them your money get that version instead you will save yourself all the anger.

Also pick up this mod it has all the xbox 360 dlc/psp content http://marvelmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=3380.0

Where are you getting that it doesn't have 1080p? There's a screenshot on this board of precisely that setting.

I'm not hunting through a 14 and half minute video for a single piece the info. I have it set to 1080p resolution myself.

Did he say the 1920x1080 setting isn't actually 1080p? Is he having the same issue as Kotaku where changing resolution causes you to lose resolution options? What?

[Yautja]

They must have updated it since the release last night then because it was missing when it released.

[Tale]

There's been no update. But I recall one report where someone changed the resolution and suddenly got stuck at a low resolution for their trouble. That might be what he experienced.

I thought that was Kotaku, but can no longer find it in Kotaku's article.

Either way I don't think it matters the 2006 build is better go see the differences.

[Tale]

Found it, it was PC Gamer. http://www.pcgamer.com/the-marvel-ultimate-alliance-pc-ports-are-overpriced-and-undercooked/

They had their native resolution working, but the menu claimed it was lower, sub 1080p. After trying to fix it, they got stuck at a lower resolution.

I would not dispute that the 2006 build might be better. Crap like that resolution bug is pretty ridiculous.

[Yautja]

The developer that Activision hired to do this didn't have enough experience which is why there is so many issues.

I been waiting for these two games to come to PC for so freaking long, but all i see is negative things about each one about how bad the ports are. Makes me sick to my stomach that they messed these ports up. I'm really really getting sick of the gaming industry.

The first game already came to PC, when it released on every other platform... 10 years ago... That version is still perfectly functional today, with few if any bugs, at a relatively decent price, and with full modern OS and controller support. Literally the only thing you get with this version is Steam achievements.

They're charging you $40...
...for Steam achievements...

and they didn't even bother to QA their product to check all the other things they broke...

You do realize that the orginal retail version was published by Activision, right?

[Milkdust]

Some people will have a 1080p option. The prevailing theory is that the game only shows certain resolutions depending on your monitor's native resolution. No one really knows for sure, though, because the entire options menu system is on crack.

Yes I do but do they get money from people purchasing the original no.

Works great! Smooth 60 fps at 1920 x 1080. Only played with controller. Thanks Kody55

Fyi - That mod is not downloadable on the Marvel Mods site. You end up with a lot of malware instead. Do you have an alternate download point/mirror available?
