Catastrophic technical failure
So I got all of the Commandos games somewhere else first (probably the humble store, ergo Steam versions) and since they had pretty catastrophic technical failures, I bought them here again, in the hopes that the GOG versions would work. They don't. I get the same issues: I tried on a modern Win7 64bit machine and the games would display 0.1 fps in the menu, which is such horrible lag that I couldn't even click anything at all. This is true for all of the 2D Commandos titles (Call of Duty, Beyond Enemy LInes and Commandos 2). Sometimes alt-tabbing would freeze the PC, sometimes I was lucky enough to open the task manager and force close the process. Either way, on a reboot, the PC would run chkdsk prior to booting Windows. Every time after I had to force close the game. I'm not adventurous enough to risk data loss while mucking about with dozens of potential workarounds for a trip down nostalgia lane. If you want to risk it, better try in a VM first.
Is this helpful to you?
