Metro: Last Light Bugs, problems and glitches

[epicfailarrives]

Just installed.

Can't change resolution, no resolutions are listed, try to change resolution and get a game crash. *Fix* Fix for this issue is to disconnect any other monitors you have connected to your PC... I guess having more than one monitor connected to your video card is unacceptable...

Never mind that you can't adjust FOV.


gg.

[Aaron]

Two try's and he's down for the count.

[NuclearWastE3]

ahhhhhhaa!:smash:
I don't quite believe you because I've played the some of the crapyiest of crap console port overs in my life and there is an option for resolution change; but why don't you show the rest of us this " non existent option menu" by taking a screen shot, simply press F12.

[epicfailarrives]

You don't seem to understand. Yes, there is a section for video options and yes one of those options is 'resolution' but there is nothing listed under resolutions, it's blank.

If you try to cycle through the arrows to find or choose a resolution, the game crashes. If you manually edit the config file for your resolution, it doesn't work.

And this is happening to others as well, already showing up on the Steam forums.

Console-port turdpile bugfest at its finest. I guess changing resolution is an option we don't need............

[NuclearWastE3]

Apologies for the misconception. Hopefully Steam quickly comes out with an update.

Edit: Quck question: Is there anything else that comes with the pre-order other than what is already know, Ranger Hardcore, more MG bullets, weapons, etc.?

[Dungeoncrawler]

Running the game on a 120hz monitor, but in-game I seem to be locked at 30fps. I've switched my monitor to 60hz, tried both in-game vsync off/on, and tried forcing it through nvidia control panel, but still 30fps. I'm running on the newest beta drivers. Any ideas? Thank you.

edit - srry guys, just noticed i'm in the wrong place :rolleyes: Can a mod kindly move this to the general thread?

[Dungeoncrawler]

I'm able to change resolutions without crashing. However the game does hang for an unusual amount of time while doing it.

[TotalAaron]

Are your computers up to spec?

[epicfailarrives]

I've spoke to other people getting the crash. We are running different video cards, drivers, resolution etc. Can't find a commonality that is causing it. Some people running nvidia cards with the same drivers or AMD cards are able to change resolution fine and do not get a crash...

Going to try disabling tray apps and anti virus programs etc. See if I can find the cause. I am using nvidia cards with the 320.14 betas and my resolution is 2560x1600.

[geronimosan]

For many people, the game starts up in some odd resolution. When we enter Video Options, there are no values available in the Resolution field, and clicking on the arrows crashes the game.

(I had links to two separate Steam forum threads that would have helped troubleshooting, but these forums seem to have some rule about not being able to post URLs until I have made 15 other posts. How dumb.)

You mods may not like your consumers mocking this being a console port, but the reality is that, whether console port has anything to do with it or not, this is just another example of the gaming industry being lazy while trying to maximize profits, and it is very frustrating to the consumer.

[TotalAaron]

My mate is getting 120+ :) is your computer up to spec?

[Dungeoncrawler]

My mate is getting 120+ :) is your computer up to spec?

Thanks for the reply. Yea, I'm running top-of-the-line gpu's and proc. I'll try disabling sli, or devoting a card to physx.

[TotalAaron]

Well i kow for a fact its not capped ill look it it up for you :)

[TotalAaron]

This may blow your mind but what exactly is the problem? is your computer up to spec? this is a extremely demanding piece of kit

[geronimosan]

I already described in detail what the problem is.

Computer specs:
i7-990x OC'ed @4.5Ghz
680GTX 2xSLI
24GB RAM
SSD drive
30" moniter @ 2560x1600

I am an avid video and photo editor and gamer. Everything else I throw at my machine works just fine. That said, my computer wouldn't cause resolution values to not appear in the game's UI - the game would. Thus, the problem lies within the game.

[TotalAaron]

Cant help you mate

[Dungeoncrawler]

Well i kow for a fact its not capped ill look it it up for you :)

I know its not capped, but something is up? Disabling sli didn't work either. I'll load this onto my 680 system and see if its indigenous to my titans?

[TotalAaron]

Try disabling SLAA or whatever it is called

[NuclearWastE3]

This is offtopic, but you have alot of RAM; and I don't know how to help you on this one.

[Dwannago]

Some people running nvidia cards with the same drivers or AMD cards are able to change resolution fine and do not get a crash...


Seems to be a driver issue.Did you tried clean install method ? Since it's a beta driver, issues may happen on some system while others don't even when they have same specs.

[Dungeoncrawler]

Try disabling SLAA or whatever it is called

Good idea, but didn't work. I tried changing graphic options to either off, or their lowest setting but it didn't help.

[TotalAaron]

I was just thinking that :D

[WeApOn]

Every time I launch my game in Steam, I get the legal video with the author name and NVIDIA way its meant to be played phrase, and then my screen goes directly to a developer console which appears to show the user.cfg file. I am able to type, but no commands are useful.

I have tried nearly every idea possible and nothing has worked:

Downloaded latest drivers.
Edited user.cfg in steam directory to not use fullscreen, change res.
Edited user.cfg in appdata same as above.
Verified game files on Steam.
Redownloaded entire game on Steam.
Started game in Safe Mode.
Disabled my other 3 monitors.
Lowered from 120hz to 60hz on primary monitor.
Rebooted.
Likely other things I have forgotten to list.

I haven't participated in a midnight launch or even pre-ordered a game in YEARS. I was a huge Metro 2033 fan and urged my friends to buy it. I was very excited to play Metro:LL, and scheduled work off tomorrow. Now I feel like the money I paid forward has been wasted. Unfortunately this situation has only reminded me that early adopters always get the shaft.

My troubleshooting is over for the night. I will check back tomorrow in hopes that the developers are active on these forums, or at least another user that has the same issue. I DID find one other person experiencing the same thing on the Steam Community HUB for this game, but my troubleshooting was more extensive, and neither of us were able to fix the issue.

[geronimosan]

This is offtopic, but you have alot of RAM

That's what SHE said!

But, yeah, M:LL is going to need a patch.

[Dungeoncrawler]

Another wrong version uploaded to steam again?

[NuclearWastE3]

This all sounds very similar to 2011 when ID released their game Rage.

[WeApOn]

Doubtful. Others appear to be playing fine.

Forgot to mention my specs. Briefly: Gtx 670, i7 860, 4 monitors, primary is 120hz.

Other guy who has the same problem is on a 7970 I believe, so quite a different card.

On mobile, will provide more info in morning.

[Dwannago]

Another problem with resolution ? I see that your rig has SLI which usually has more issue than single GPU and no WHQL driver released yet (this driver has a lot of problems if you check it on geforce.com).The best thing I can suggest now is re-install driver (clean method) or even re-install the game (this sucks ,I know :( )

[NuclearWastE3]

[QUOTE=geronimosan;40629]That's what SHE said!

:twitch:?!!!? :lol:

[geronimosan]

Have already reinstalled the game, did not help.

Had the last official nVidia driver, now have the new Beta driver - clean installs, neither worked.

I still can't link to the Steam thread with 110+ posts because I haven't made 15 posts here yet, but quite a few people with varying rigs/drivers/etc are all having this problem.

[NuclearWastE3]

Hey, I forgot to add, thank you Aaron (Mod) for keeping everything nice and organized right now. :thumb:

[TotalAaron]

Great idea Mod (OtherAaron)

[geronimosan]

Resolution problem SOLVED (for me, and hopefully for you all.)

Jesus H #@$#

Along with all of my system specs, I also have a multi-monitor setup. Main monitor on Display Port, and second monitor on DVI. The second monitor is turned off, my nVidia settings are set to Single Monitor Performance, and though my Screen Options detected the second monitor, they were set to only use my main monitor.

On a whim I decided to just unplug my second monitor, even though it was off and not being used.

Started up M:LL, and low-and-behold, it boots up at 800x600 resolution. And, in Video Options, 800x600 value was listed as an option.

However, I couldn't change it, but the game didn't crash. I backed out to nVidia Experience app, optimized my settings at 2560x1600 resolution, restarted the game, and BAM - works perfectly.

How many of you with this problem are using multi-monitor setup?

[BLY4]

I'm having this really stupid glitch where my GameStop isn't open and I can't pick my game up till later on today!!!!

[Darkbringer]

My AMD card has some really bad shutter problems, I can hardly believe Last Light is better optimized since I would run Metro 2033 on High 1920x1080 with 50 fps.

[ChaoticFarva]

I'm trying to change the resolution but every time I try the game crashes.
How do I stop this from happening?

Thanks :)

[TotalAaron]

This has been answered

[ChaoticFarva]

So... you ain't gonna help? okay then

[BLY4]

I share in Mr. Aarons feelings, you should have read the other threads before creating a new one. May I suggest oh, idk, the one entitled Metro: Last Light Bugs, Problems, and Glitches? I have this aching feeling it would be helpful.

[majnu]

Maybe this will be of some help

Well first of all I didn't see it and next time ill look around the forums before I post to make you happy hows that sound?

[Dungeoncrawler]

Installed the game on my system running 680's - Game runs fine, with no frame lock. Running on titan system and I'm locked at 30 fps. Seems the game does not like that particular gpu? Anyone running on a titan getting normal frames per second?

Console-port turd.

gg.

(I was going to create a thread on this but was hoping that we got a PC/Console dedicated technical first. But since people have taken the initiative and have started to report problems I thought we could work together to organize this better so that the developers… if they get sight of this can replicate and solve any problems and we can hopefully work together to find an answer to technical problems.

Calling the game "console port turd" will not help, as the game is far from a console port and the problems are just technical bugs, optimization issues, driver problems etc)

Game bugs and glitches Submission

-Unfortunately some Lurkers and Watchers enter the Metro and slip past our defenses. The same can be said for bugs and glitches which nobody likes. If you come across any related to Gameplay could you please provide:-

a) Platform
b) Description of the problem
c) Which Mission it is prevalent in
d) If you can a Screenshot or Video this will greatly help.


Technical problem Submission

- Firstly the Steam community is much larger and has greater knowledge of solving technical problems, so that should be your first port of call.

- When submitting a technical problem related to Metro Last Light, could you please provide:-

a) Platform (e.g. XBOX, PS3, PC)
b) Description of the problem
c) Operating System (e.g Windows 7 64 Bit)
d) System Specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, Single or Multi-Monitor; and whether you have any over-clocks)
e) Driver version
f) A Screenshot or Video of the problem will greatly help.

Whilst we may not have all the answers, we can at least start a process of elimination for common problems. If your problem still cannot be solved at least 4A have sufficient information to replicate and work on a fix asap.

If I have missed out any information please let me know and I will add it to the above. If a Mod can add this to the OP it would be appreciated.

Thanks

Well first of all I didn't see it and next time ill look around the forums before I post to make you happy hows that sound?

My apologies if you took any offense to what I said, I did not mean any. Was just bustin your chops :) welcome to the forums

[ChaoticFarva]

My apologies if you took any offense to what I said, I did not mean any. Was just bustin your chops :) welcome to the forums

Alright, apology accepted anyway what the guy linked to me didn't help I guess ill wait Intel a new patch for the game :/

[Professor Pew]

Cheers for that Majnu!

Feel free to leave any issues in this thread. On Steam people will do it there but it's not a bad idea to have it here as well to keep it more organized.

I'm making dedicated issue reporting and troubleshooting threads to pin on Steam as well.

[BLY4]

Alright, apology accepted anyway what the guy linked to me didn't help I guess ill wait Intel a new patch for the game :/

Yeah, unfortunately there's so many different things that could be messing it up and the games only been out for a few hours, it's pretty much gonna be a waiting game for PC players :/. If you havnt already though I'd post your problem in the bug-report post Manju started, in the thread I was referring to earlier, so it gets out there and 4A can get on it.

[Dwannago]

My AMD card has some really bad shutter problems, I can hardly believe Last Light is better optimized since I would run Metro 2033 on High 1920x1080 with 50 fps.
I'm not surprised that AMD cards having problems with MLL.Nvidia sure want to revenge after Tomb Raider 's launch :lol:

[majnu]

right click on the game in your steam library and hit properties and go to launch options and add -norestrictions at the end of the filename. Or even try -nomemrestrict -norestrictions

GTA4 had similar problems with resolutions, so see if the above helps or if any tips to solve GTA44's problems are applicable.

[Professor Pew]

There are two pinned threads on Steam now. Feel free to update the OP.

The horizontal mouse sensitivity is much higher than the vertical. It's not playable that way.

Using a 3750k and 2 680 4 GB running in SLI at 5760x1080.

I don't see any option to change the horizontal and vertical sensitivity individually.

[Lagtagbag]

Change it out of game?

[TotalAaron]

Maybe it is your mouse? it helps to try things yourself instead of complaining to a forum after a few go's

[emanresu]

Change it out of game?
So how would I change only the horizontal sensitivity? Neither Windows nor the game offers such an option. There also doesn't seem to be a program to do that. Ignoring the fact that I really don't feel like messing with my mouse settings every time I start and quit the game.

Maybe it is your mouse? it helps to try things yourself instead of complaining to a forum after a few go's

Why would my mouse be the cause? It always works flawlessly. Just not with this one single game. So isn't it most likely the games fault?

Where would I even start to look for a solution?

I tried different mice anyway. Razer Naga Hex, Arc Mouse and some noname thing. Exact same problem.

[TheJollyRedRanger]

Well for some reason Metro lastlight has been crashing on my computer at random times from in the middle of a mission to the very beginning loading screens. When it does run though it has 35+ FPS all the time and works great besides the crashes. Any help? Oh and I have the RPK but not the AK-74Su and I pre-ordered the game on steam, has this happened to anyone else?

[WeApOn]

FIX FOR BELOW:
type 'host 000' without the quotes in the console and it will load the main menu. there is still an inherit problem behind this as to why the menu will not launch on its own

Every time I launch my game in Steam, I get the legal video with the author name and NVIDIA way its meant to be played phrase, and then my screen goes directly to a developer console which appears to show the user.cfg file. I am able to type, but no commands are useful.

[metro22]

awful performance, in order to maintain 60fps on my right, I have to run it at 1080p high, tesselation off, ssao off, this shouldn't be the case since a 660 ti plays this just fine, and my card is much better.

My rig: 7950 OC, i53570k 4Ghz

Like I wrote earlier my 7870 has had some problems as well, it seems extremely poorly optimized for AMD cards :ohwell:

Yeah, i'm using the most recent catalyst beta that came out a week ago, doesn't change much.

Your 7850 should run this game at least in the same level as 660ti.

I hope AMD get's on the job soon

[catskinjumpsuit]

All the characters in my game have a texture glitch, where all the textures look as if they're being pulled straight down. I'm playing it on a crappy laptop but everything else in the game is perfectly fine just all the character models are freaking out. Anyone else have this problem? I've re-installed and played around with my video settings but nothing works. Could it just be my graphics card? Help?

[Someoneyoushoulnotknow.]

My version on Xbox 360 has a save problem, when quit game and installed it I noticed that my game wasn't saved at all, I was on the point of escaping from Reich. Sadly there was no sign of it so I restarted the game from beginning.

[Another]

Hi!
I have a strange problem.
On high settings (low/medium) i encounter graphical glitches.
Usualy with fire, but on highest settings they're gone, though i can't play on highest cause the game is too laggy for me :/

Screenshot examples:
High settings -

[Draggony]

I am unable to change my resolution and that fix doesn't work for me as I only have one display to start with. One 32" HDTV and it won't go to 1080p for me. Just sticks to some ugly 1440 by 900 garbage. Tried just about everything I could think of. Thinking about giving my game away but thought about it. If there isn't any resolve, I'll find comfort in burning it at my next bonfire. So tired of lack of quality in my video games.

[Clear Sky Stalker]

barely out and there be glitches everywhere.

[emanresu]

Great idea to cram all problems into one thread. It helps so much with keeping an overview about individual problems. No chaos at all.

So about that:

The horizontal mouse sensitivity is much higher than the vertical. It's not playable that way.

The wider your resolution is, the higher is your horizontal sensitivity...

I collected some data:

No matter which resolution, moving the mouse from the top to the bottom of my pad is just enough to go from looking all the way up to looking all the way down.

~21 cm vertical mouse movement = ~180° looking around

Now let's see what happens if I move 21 cm horizontally:

1280x1024 (5:4)
~270°

1920x1080 (16:9)
~270°

5760x1080 (48:9)
~900°

Why is 5:4 and 16:9 the same? My bet would be that 5:4 is just a squeezed 16:9, as those screenshots show:

i.imgur.com/0UWGjeB.jpg
i.imgur.com/LWXRyeM.jpg

And the 48:9 one for good measure:
i.imgur.com/kLrsVFi.jpg


And another awesome thing:
While having surround enabled (so desktop resolution is 5760x1080) the game will only let you choose 3 resolutions with the same aspect ration. So in order to play the game at 1920x108 (or whatever) you need to disable surround first, which is just a pain.

Problem persists when using a 360 controller by the way.

[N3xus]

I was playing the game on PC of a friend and suddently the FPS dropped to 5 and when i closed the game even in Windows everything was stuttering.
He told me that this only happened with this game.
CPU usage after closing it was about 40-50%
670 gtx, i7 3770k 3.5 and 16 gb ram.

[GTO6777]

I think I may have stumbled onto a temporary workaround for some of those of you having resolution issues with HDTV's on PC.

I read a review of the game earlier in which the reviewer mentioned issues similar to mine with his HDTV (Blank space in resolution settings and crash to desktop if you change it). He said when he hooked up a regular PC monitor, everything worked fine.

So here's what I did:

My normal cable connecting the PC and screen is a DVI to HDMI. Leaving that connected, I also connected a VGA cable with a DVI to VGA adapter to my second output on the video card.

First change the resolution to 1024x768.

Second, I found that if I boot the computer and start the game while the screens input is set to PC (the VGA cable), I can go into settings and change the resolution as I would normally.

Set the resolution to 1920x1080 and hit Esc (Your screen might go black as if it cant handle that resolution, mine did)

Lastly I changed the TV input back to my original HDMI connection.

From there on, it works fine. I am able to exit the game and go back into it and the settings stay. However, when I rebooted, the settings reset and I had to do the process over again.

It seems that the game has issues with HDMI.

Unfortunately I'm so tired and frustrated from my trial and error, I don't even want to play the game now.

If anyone tries it and it doesn't work, let me know. The were a couple other things I changed, but I don't think they're necessary.

[Bloodwave]

The game worked the first time and then when I was climbing a ladder with the sniper girl my game crashed. I then tried to run it again and it runs with a console command like thing instead of the game. I have included screenshots of this glitch. Please help, I have been waiting for the game for a while and am extremely excited to play it.

[nets09]

I got the game today for PS3 and it worked fine. Tried starting it up a second time, and it gets stuck at the main menu. Where it says press start to continue. I press start and nothing happens. I've deleted the game data and still nothing. I just went and got a new disc and it's the same thing. Has anyone else had this happen!? Beyond frustrating.

[ghostdeini]

I'm experiencing the flickering shadows and frame lagging. The game runs like molasses whenever I pan the camera across these flickering shadows. In order to make the game playable, I'm forcing the DX9 renderer via the user.cfg file. I really want to play this game in DX11, and I'm pretty bummed that I have to postpone my playthrough until this problem is fixed.

- W8 64-bit
- i5-3570k

[Prettyfox]

I easily beat the minimum settings with my computer, and have everything set as low as it can go, including my resolution...

yet for some reason, I'm still getting lag and screen tearing.

I have a 2.7 duo core intel processor
a 2GIG ATI Radeon 7870
and 4 gigabytes of RAM...

[carlsomm]

Having the same problem... I am running on a 52 Inch plasma resolution, I found a user.cfg file in the game directory. I set the resolution to 1280 X 760 (Most of my games run fine this way.. I can play the game now but I cannot read the notes. THey are scrunched up. Updated Nvidia drivers / Direct X. Restart... Ran in Safe mode and still see no available settings for resolution.. The notes are the story line and do not even wish to play the game without being able to read. Hope LL tech fix this soon.. I believe it has to do with the Refresh rate and possibly interlacing. Gluck game looks great so far.

[nets09]

Is anyone playing on PS3? I'm currently stuck on the main menu, it just continually flashes press start to continue. Nothing happens. Deleted game data, restored file system, and even got a new disc.

I think I may have stumbled onto a temporary workaround for some of those of you having resolution issues with HDTV's on PC.

I read a review of the game earlier in which the reviewer mentioned issues similar to mine with his HDTV (Blank space in resolution settings and crash to desktop if you change it). He said when he hooked up a regular PC monitor, everything worked fine.

So here's what I did:

Set the resolution to 1920x1080 and hit Esc (Your screen might go black as if it cant handle that resolution, mine did)

Lastly I changed the TV input back to my original HDMI connection.


I don't understand, you connected the DVI>VGA to your HDTV along with the HDMI cable? I would try that but my HDTV only has HDMI input, no VGA or DVI.

I am experiencing the same resolution lock issue that some other people are having. Here's what's happening for me: The game is locked at an odd resolution 1440x480. The image stretches to fill my full screen (1920x1080), but has odd stretching and cropping issues with UI and HUD elements (anything that is not 3D). For example, 3D game elements do not look squashed or streched--just low resolution, but the in-game menu is cropped and the right half of all the text within is missing. When I go into the options to change the resolution, the actual resolution field is blank and the instant I click to change it the game crashes.

I can tell what the resolution is set to from three locations: GeForce Experience, User.cfg, and the screenshots I've taken. Every attempt to alter the resolution, through GeForce Experience, User.cfg, and in-game Options, has failed. In-game Options attempts crash the game immediately, and attempts at forcing the resolution through GeForce Experience and User.cfg do nothing (the game changes it back to 1440x480 the next time it is loaded). I've attached some screenshots so that people who are not having this problem can see what is going on. The screenshots look squashed, but when in-game the odd resolution is using a non square-pixel aspect ratio and stretching it up to 16:9 to fill the screen. It doesn't look quite as bad as the screenshots, but the real problem is the cropping of UI elements and the fact that I can't change resolution in the first place. I imagine the cropping stuff would go away if I could.

The two solutions listed in this thread so far do not work for me: #1 Unplug secondary monitor (I only have one connected), and #2 Connect your HDTV using an analog VGA cable (my TV only supports HDMI). I've also tried changing every other in-game setting, and disabling my secondary PhysX GPU.

Anyone else have suggestions?

Here's my setup:
Windows 8 64bit
i7 970
12GB RAM
GTX 580
GTS 450 (PhysX Only)
Installed onto 4x1TB RAID 5 Array
Steam version of M:LL
Panasonic Plasma HDTV --> HDMI

That's correct, both cables connected to the same TV. If you don't have VGA or DVI ports on your TV, the only other cable type that might work would be this:

DVI (or VGA) from your PC to RGB inputs on the screen.

I do have component inputs on my TV, but I don't have that type of cable and I'd prefer not to use analog connections anyway.

Fortunately, I've been reading the Steam forums and the issue has been found and fixed internally already, so the game patch should be out soon hopefully. I'll just wait for that, as I didn't find any interim solutions that would work for me in the mean time.

The problem apparently is with certain models of HDTVs connected via HDMI that report awkward possible resolutions and are being auto-selected by default and cannot be changed.

I bought the disc for PC at Fry's Electronics (I live in California, it's like Best Buy but better). On Steam it says (Not available in your country) when I enter the CD key. What gives? I posted this on the Steam forums, sent in an email to Steam. Just thought I'd come on here in case anyone over here has heard of this issue. I'm also not the only one. It seems all retail discs aren't activating on Steam.

[stock2255]

I've posted to Ivory_soul's post on Steam's forums, but wanted to post here as well to make sure its understood that it is affecting multiple users, and cannot be attributed to user error or one retailer. I preordered the Limited Edition Retail box from Amazon, and it was shipped to my home in Texas. When trying to install the game, Steam will pop up with an error:

"Not Available

Sorry, but the following items are not available for purchase in this country. Your purchase has been cancelled"

Obviously its just a bug, but like Ivory_soul, I've also emailed Steam, Deep Silver, as well as Amazon (not that contacting amazon would help...) and have yet to receive a response. When I first encountered the problem, I figured there would be more posts and complaints from multiple users on the problem, but It wasn't to just a while ago that I finally saw a post on Steam, and realized it wasn't just a problem with my copy, my computer. For reference, I turned off UAC, Windows Firewall, and all similar security problems to rule out a bug or conflict with them. I also do not use a VPN, proxy, or any other kind of configuration that could create problems for Steam.

[rebelshadowrm]

So since my install, I was forced 1440 x 480, trying to adjust resolution I was then crashed a few times and forced to 1440 x 900.
I played 4-5hours just dealing with it.
I tried a few times to do a windowed mode max res, realizing that you have to delete the AppData/Local file with the user.cfg and not the one with the exe.

Tonight, I changed the game to windowed mode, and it crashed twice.
The third time I successfully changed into a pseudo fullscreen windowed mode.

After I had done this, all the enemies were frozen. Much like the bug discovered on the ps3.

From what I've read, it was just a small area and everything went back to normal after. For me, the only enemies that move are ones summoned by an alarm. I've gone through numerous reloads and have just run through to new areas, as well as reloading previous ones.

Will this bug be addressed, and/or fixed with the upcoming HDMI (1440x 480/900) .exe overwrite bug fix?

hello community,

ive gotten the section where you pick up night vision goggles for the first time (before the church). whenever i equip them i see artyom bring them down and the screen flashes to green for a split second before returning to normal un nightvision view. when i take them off the screen flashes to green for a second before returning to normal view.

help please :(

[ivory_soul]

Valve just fixed the issue. Very strange, wasted most people's day on this. Didn't know it would get fixed this fast either.

[Clear Sky Stalker]

Glitches, glitches everywhere.

[hever]

sorry but do you have the same glitch? is it a common glitch? is there anyway to fix it?

[Clear Sky Stalker]

it just came out, they'll release a patch soon enough.

[Darkbringer]

Did you remember to charge the battery? Sorry if I'm asking stupid but let's just rule out the basic things first.

[hever]

no you're not asking a stupid question, im the stupid one here...can you even charge the battery? i thought that was only in metro 2033 not last light :shocked:

[TheOnlyKingArthur]

no you're not asking a stupid question, im the stupid one here...can you even charge the battery? i thought that was only in metro 2033 not last light :shocked:

Yup, just hold F (or your flashlight key) and fire away until it's charged.

Hello there,

Guys, I seem to be experiencing what appears to be a bug (cause i cannot find any other explanation for this). I'm already at chapter 2 or 3, it's where i'm trying to escape from the nazi base, and my companion is captured. Now: i can kill people, i can pick up whatever i can find on them (rounds and other stuff), but i cannot pick up any guns which my victims were carrying. So here i am with a pistol, 12 bullets, and 3 knives and i keep killing people until my rounds are gone. After that i have to pray hard not to be spotted, which never works (I'm starting to doubt my religion).
So obviously the E key is working since i can pick stuff off the ground but why can't i pick up guns? I have 2 free slots...

Are you holding E to pick up the guns or just tapping it? You have to hold it down for a second or two...

What steps are you doing for the windowed mode? I was able to get my resolution problems temporarily fixed until the patch comes out using this method:

Find user.cfg in local user directory, delete it. Find user.cfg in Steam M:LL app folder and set resolution to 1920x1080 & fullscreen to off.

If that's what you are doing and the game is buggy afterward then you will likely just need to wait for the patch. The patch ought to fix the issue you are having if you only have it while using the workaround (since you won't need to modify the user.cfg after the patch comes out).

[TheOnlyKingArthur]

No worries, it took me a while to figure it out myself :D

[randomhalt]

So I'm in the swamp area and I'm fighting a monster and all the sudden Artyom starts sliding around uncontrollably and eventually just dies for no reason. Then when the game reloads I'm stuck and can only fire my guns and such. But can't move at all. :mad:

[Mindgame]

Ugh. the thing that always sucks about these thread. 100 people stating issues with so little actually answering.

I went through all the pages and haven't found a fix for only getting a console screen on startup of the game after the intro. Anyone have any thoughts on it? I've been trying everything I can think of for three hours now and nothing.

Reinstalled game multiple times, have latest nvidia drivers, did all windows updates, deleted the intro file, forcing DX9/10, changing res in config and trying to make it windowed, turned off firewall, closed antivirus, closed all monitoring programs (evga precision, gpu-z), took off CPU and GFX card overclocks, running the game as admin, typing everything I can think of into the console, and lastly changing my time zone.

No matter what I get the same console command screen that I can't get past.

Going crazy lol.

Just found the answer!! For anyone having this random problem type Host 000 then push enter and it will take you to the main menu.

[majnu]

When you go into the menu whilst in game and go back into the game there is horizontal flickering. Imagine recording your monitor with a camera and you see horizontal black lines as the refresh rate is out of sync.

However what solves this is if you load the Steam pop up by pressing ALT and SHIFT or TAB I think and closing it again and it disappears.

[sadartists]

Hello, was wondering if someone may have some insight to this. I've been playing Metro LL on 360, love it and I'm a couple hours in to the game. But it was a rental, so I decided to buy it on PC. Now I want to know if I can skip a few chapters ahead? The time I can spend with video games is limited, and I want to finish Metro but would really not like to restart the whole game!

ive spent hours researching the problem and what its called but im not sure and noone else has really talked about it ..:

[Quell]

I am having the issue where upon launching the game I immediately receive the message that the "executable has stopped working" - I have searched online for this problem and while there are a few posts which mention the same issue I have not been able to find a fix for Last Light.

I have found numerous posts about this issue occurring for Metro 2033 and have attempted to follow the same solutions but to no effect.

I have
-Re-installed
-Disabled multiple monitors
-verified the cache on steam
-Re-installed the PhysX and VCredist service packages that came with the game.
-Tried lowering the quality level in the user document.
-Updated ALL drivers.

Nothing is working...

-HD7890
-Intel i7 960 @ 3.2Ghz
-Windows 7 64-bit

Can someone please help me? I would love to be having one of the other numerous bugs but well, I can't even launch the game atm.

[doloproductions]

All the characters in my game have a texture glitch, where all the textures look as if they're being pulled straight down. I'm playing it on a crappy laptop but everything else in the game is perfectly fine just all the character models are freaking out. Anyone else have this problem? I've re-installed and played around with my video settings but nothing works. Could it just be my graphics card? Help?

i am also having this same problem .... and we have fairly good laptops /// can anyone help ///:twitch:

[KGBhitman]

Not sure if anyone has stumbled across this bug, but it is soon after going past the Russian Armored train which they are working on, you exit on the other side of the room and then you enter a rail tunnel with 2 Russians chatting, one on the ground and one sitting in a flamer rail cart. Well you kill those 2 guys then on the right there is a massive door which opens when you near it, just behind are 5 or 6 Heavy Troops in Armor, each time I tried to kill them they just stand there and do nothing, even if you go up and knife them they still don't react, just stand there, they don't even respond if you walk right up to them and start jumping with your light on!

Just thaught I would post this, I reloaded a number of times to confirm, it appears their AI is bugged, this is the only real issue I have had so far, but I am sure it is easily fixed in a patch!

[KGBhitman]

i am also having this same problem .... and we have fairly good laptops /// can anyone help ///:twitch:

It would help if you post the specs of your laptops, are they using ATI or Nvidia graphics, CPU, Memory and what driver version you are using etc etc, technical problems are best helped with relevant information.

[Quell]

"The Metro Last Light Executable has stopped working".

Occurs every time I launch the game.

-HD7890
-Intel i7 960 @3.2Ghz
-12GB RAM.
-Windows 7 64-bit.

I have tried numerous solutions which were suggested for the SAME issue for Metro 2033.

-Updated every driver.
-Re-installed VCredist and PhysX and DirectX which came with the game.
-Using multiple monitors and tried running while using only a single monitor.
-Verified the cache on steam
-Reinstalled the game


STILL CAN'T FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE, PLEASE ADVISE.

Further information : After attempting to launch 1/2 files always fail to validate through steam.
There is no 4A games folder in my %localapps% file which apparently a second userconfig is supposed to be.

[skibadee]

Hi guys. I have a problem regarding save game data. Last night everything was working great, but today it appears that i cannot continue because there`s no save game data ? Even though i can see save game data on my user. I don`t know is this and i`m asking if anyone can help me. Thanks
Btw, it`s the ps3 version.

[MrMintyful]

Just installed.

Can't change resolution, no resolutions are listed, try to change resolution and get a game crash. *Fix* Fix for this issue is to disconnect any other monitors you have connected to your PC... I guess having more than one monitor connected to your video card is unacceptable...

Never mind that you can't adjust FOV.


gg.
I don't seem to have any problems, I am running the dual GTX 680 if that would be a factor...

[lordnox]

Ok so i've heard that a lot of people are experiencing stuttering in the game and i am one of them. It's awful and the game is unplayable.

I have a GTX 570 OCed, 4GB DDR2 ram and a Quad core intel Q9550 OCed to 3.8Ghz CPU.

The FPS in the game is fine but the stuttering makes it unplayable. I think it has something to do with hyperthreading that my CPU doesn't support.

Others have been experiencing this too so please look into this problem. If hyperthreading really is the problem you should release a fix for CPUs that don't support it.

[Lagtagbag]

you might wanna post stuff like that here,https://lastlightforum.com/showthread.php?t=4840 instead of making a new thread.

[TheStalker]

i think its cause you have ddr2 ram/

[lionhair]

Im having a lot of shadow stripping in the game no matter the settings (Low - Very High)
I play on High in DX11, without Tesselation and SSAA off.

Click on the spoiler to see my issue.

I have an HD6850 with latest Catalyst driver and the last Metro patch.

Anyone having this problem?

[lordnox]

well all the other games i play run fine. For instance Bioshock infinite runs excellent, so does Crysis 3 and other graphically intense games.

It's a fact that this is a game problem and so it should be fixed.

Games should be optimised so they run on a wide scale of different system configurations.

Anyway, i know the development team is working hard on the game so i guess i will wait for another patch to come out, i just hope that they are aware of this problem as there are quite a lot of people having it.

[Vintage]

I have a strange problem with resolution aspect ratio:
while in fullscreen, screen seems to be horizontally streched. I have 1920x1080 monitor, resolution both in-game ant in .cfg files is set also to 1920x1080. If I set fullscreen to off, everything's fine.

[majnu]

is bugged. After I clear the enemies in the main facility the characters don't respond. When I go to kill them they die, remain standing and the game crashes. When the game does not crash the rest of the characters do not move and I can walk past the enemy without being detected.

Nah, why? I have finished the game ^^!

[thestillwind]

My desktop have to monitor hooked on it. When I play the game it's on monitor 1 but the mouse is not locked in the game windows instead it can go in the monitor 2 and then if I clicked (to shoot for example) I'm getting back in the desktop... pretty lame uh?

You don't dev with 2 monitor? Never saw that bug?

And why do we have no real action about what video config to change? Seems like another port... too bad..

But at least fix this, it's a pain in the a..................... :)

[thestillwind]

and I'm playing ranger hardcore, how in the hell do I check how much ammo I have or switch secondary... and why it seems like the inventory (tab) is still there but just invisible cause I can still hear when I drag the mouse like it was just opacity=0

[BrianBlessed]

I am getting stutterting every so often despite my fps being perfect even on max settings. Changing any setting does not fix this issue. The game is just unplayable atm with these REALLY annoying stutters.

[SMGJohn]

So I just bought Metro Last Light, and I read the AMD patch had released a day before, so I believe it is installed.
However, the game is making my AMD Radeon HD 7970M overheat and I go from a whopping 40FPS on highest settings to 9FPS in matter of 10 minutes.

Now, I've run Crysis 3 for hours on ultra with no problems, no overheating issue so the system is working perfectly but Metro Last Light is making my card overwork and overheat for some reasons.

The FPS even continues to drop until it hits 1FPS and crashes with no error messages.

[majnu]

Now the game has unlocked in the UK, I have resolution problems. Even though I'm at 1920X1080p it scales it lower and stretches it. Maybe it's an aspect ratio problem.

[oli3]

Hi, I had pre-loaded the game for a whole week and finally was able to start it up half an hour ago and my Range Mode was locked!

I was under the impression all pre-orders would have this unlocked. I would like to know why this has happened?

[PMRN]

Game had been playing great until I went to Venice, during the scene with the dancing girl Artyom became completely invisible. This has persisted through to the marsh, and after tweaking all the video settings I can in lots of different combinations. Intel i9 with ATI 5800, updated drivers.

[TheStalker]

i9? also this is for suggestions for the forums, not the game/

[majnu]

which platform?
how did you purchase the game? was it from Steam or a CD Key etailer?

[PMRN]

Sorry, i7 950, and I'll keep looking for the correct forum.

[oli3]

On Steam, but I did not buy directly from Steam. The key was given to me and it activated as the standard edition but I thought all standard editions pre-orders included ranger mode...

[PMRN]

The game was working great up until Venice and the scene with the dancing girl, Artyom's body became invisible, Predator style. This persisted through the costume change and entering the marsh, the three yellow lights of the watch are visible but everything else is invisible with a slight displacement effect. I've rebooted and tweaked every video setting I can think of, on an intel i7 with ATI 5800, any ideas?

On Steam, but I did not buy directly from Steam. The key was given to me and it activated as the standard edition but I thought all standard editions pre-orders included ranger mode...

If you pre-ordered the LE you should have got 3 codes

1. Metro LL Game
2. Pre-order bonus inc guns, military grade bullets and ranger hc
3. Digital comic book

If you got a single code then it was for the game alone.

I have no idea why this is happening as I also thought that all early copies would have granted pre-order incentives, but it seems Deep Silver snook out a standard version of the game also without all the pre-order bonuses.

[bigmonkey]

Howdy ya'll,

I get this strange red tented flickering on everything.

I searched the forums but couldn't come up with anything similar.

Here's a video to demonstrate: youtu.be/aOEpPgrg1u0

I was running the latest stable version of Nvidia's drivers so I installed the Metro beta driver 320. The effect is still there.

It changes it's pattern when I turn off vysnc. Anyone have any clues as to what might cause this?

System specs
I7-3960X stock
2xSLI GTX Titan stock
ASUS Rampage IV Extreme
32gb ram @ 1600
Windows 7 Ultimate x64

[LOEF]

Huh would you look at that, That's be annoying.

I'm playing on Xbox 360 so sorry if none of this helps.

Have you got anything running in the background? What?
Have you tried to change the resolution/Graphics?
Does this happen on any other game or just Metro?

Last thing I could say is uninstall and reinstall, But I'm sure someone more informative round here will help you out with it.

Good luck.

[TheStalker]

LOEF is here :D. Why not on pc?

[bigmonkey]

Okay so it had nothing to do with metro. I re-seated the SLI bridge and that fixed it. I tried Dishonored and it did it to that one as well. It didn't do it in WoW so I just assumed it was Metro that was the problem.

Apologies for not being more thorough.

[Naito]

Whenever I return to the main menu and I load a chapter/continue from a saved checkpoint, I lose all my diary entries that I collected..!
This happen even for new games. I spent the last 3 hours trying to pinpoint the problem but I wasn't able to fix this irritating bug.

[Laphin]

The game still looks good on HIGH which is where I have to play it. But has anyone noticed the glitch... When you play on VERY HIGH, the fume effects (that of steam from stoves, and generators, the tips of flame throwers, even the rain dribbling down the mask) they all look fine (on very high), but as soon as you set it on HIGH, or any other lower setting, they all become BLOCKY, like to the point where it's OBVIOUSLY not suppose to look that way at all.

That should be fixed, because it's VERY distracting. x.x

The best way to describe it, is that everything looks like jelly-smoke. lol.

[LOEF]

Hey buddy! I've always been here haha, just lurking. :lol: But you know the drill, Haven't got a good enough PC. If only eh. :)

No, I play on 360.

I'm no expert on graphics settings but I do play a good number of PC games from time to time. Not entirely sure what Tessellation does, but from what I've read about how it improves smoothness of models, sounds like it's worth a shot. Try a different DX version, you never know sometimes.

You could have simply played through these chapters in the time between your first and second posts.

Which level did you finish the game on?

[vevo0]

First, Hello to all, this topic is intended to report the bugs versions of consoles, and I'm already report some bugs that I have noticed and are irritating.
(PS3)-1-Enemies and not fully stopped and do not react die.
2-Hands Artyom hidden only appears the clock, I noticed this bug starting part of the poem where he Vincensi,hand in the mouth of a prostitute and this bug remains for the next missions it is very annoying, this problem only happens in'' cut -scene''.

Xbox (360) The only bug I noticed was that the sound failure in some parts.

I hope to launch an update to fix this problem and several others.

[waynewu]

Hi!
I have a strange problem.
On high settings (low/medium) i encounter graphical glitches.
Usualy with fire, but on highest settings they're gone, though i can't play on highest cause the game is too laggy for me :/

Screenshot examples:
High settings -
1 ht tp://postimg.org/image/v219wcyy1/
2 ht tp://postimg.org/image/syquooz55/
Highest settings-
1 ht tp://postimg.org/image/7qd679ko9/
2 ht tp://postimg.org/image/o7qz6o6ax/

got the exact same issue, ppl said run this game in DirectX9 mode could fix it, and it works for me.

here's how to force the game run in DX9 mode:
First of all, show the hidden files and folders from Folder Option then Navigate to C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\4A Games\Metro LL\user.cfg
open user.cfg with notepad, find the liner_api and edit the number to 0

[Latias42]

I also have 2 screens, But i'm only able to move the mouse from screen to screen on pause menus?


I'm on Windows 7 64bit

[Latias42]

and I'm playing ranger hardcore, how in the hell do I check how much ammo I have or switch secondary... and why it seems like the inventory (tab) is still there but just invisible cause I can still hear when I drag the mouse like it was just opacity=0

Mousewheel and Num 1 & 2 changes weapons. Not sure how you check ammo, i've been using the bastard so i just see how much is left lol

[clenz]

Anyone had any problem with the mouse cursor going out of control and all the keys seems to be unbind?..i managed to get into the game but these problem prevent me from playing it..

[Jake And Javis]

Right after I complete the Red Square level and the screen where Artyom narrates a part of the story before the level loads, it freezes about 1/2-3/4 way into the narration - And I'm forced to restart my console (Xbox 360). It's happened 3 times already, and it's incredibly frustrating and I can't seem to find any fixes online.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
-It doesn't allow you to skip the narration until about 1/2 way through, and apparently it freezes too early for me to skip it :/

[TheStalker]

try skipping the narration?

[commanderbaker]

So I have to say so far I love this game however I seem to be having a graphical issue that is pretty annoying.

Whenever i look at an object up close or in already darker environ, the screen suddenly goes even darker. then with a slight turn to looking a t a brighter lit area or farther away it brightens up again.

It gets so dark its unplayable at times.

I have a six core AMD processor 3.2+ ghz
660 TI with 2gb
12 gb of RAM

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It should be noted that this doesnt happen with my flashlight on. since it seems there is always light where im looking then.

Thanks in advance! :D

[Tigernator]

Hey, when ever I try and launch the game I just get a ''The needs to be started in safe mode'' And if I press yes or no it brings me to a windowed blacked out box and it says Metro Last Light Executable has stopped working.
I have been trying to fix this for about 6 hours now and I am pretty pissed off at this point.
The thing is I got it working one time, I was super exited and I exited to game to turn on advanced PhyX and the game wouldnt open back up.
So I turn to the community for help I guess.

I have now played 10h on Ranger Hardcore, and I've had to restart the game about 5 times.
One bug/glitch I found was when I died during the first Nazi mission; I got discovered right as I died, also getting an autosave. The problem is that it made ALL the sounds disappear, also on the main menu. This happened everytime when I tried to load from that point, so I needed to restart the whole mission!
Then I have also discovered a few glitches; NPC's getting stuck, gliding, repeating the same action over and over again etc.

It's alright, nothing I cannot play with, but it's just... unecessary. :/

[Sharkey]

One bug that encountered 4-5 times (on Xbox 360) is that my controls/inventory would lock up, being unable to do anything but move and aim. Restarting from the last checkpoint fixes the problem, but was rather annoying have it happen throughout the game. =P

[MrFuddyDuddy]

I've recently completed Metro Last Light from start to finish on Ranger Hard Core mode and never received any of the associated achievements for such a task. I'm curious to see if anyone else in the community has some suggestions on how to fix the problem or have experienced yourself.

[edinburgh1874]

Hi All,
I'm playing Last Light on a PS3 40Gb.

Shortly before meeting Andrew the Blacksmith, where you have to sneak past some guards, two audio clips have become permanently stuck on my save.

There is a particular room with a crane in it, after it started moving the audio permanently stuck along with a guard laughing.

I've tried quitting the game and rebooting the PS3, no joy.

Even though I've moved onto where you meet Andrew and get into the traincar, I now permanently have the sound of the crane, plus a guards voice "ha ha ha".

It's driving me crazy, anyone else seen any bugs like this? I don't think I can keep playing it now!

Cheers

[Quell]

Hey, when ever I try and launch the game I just get a ''The needs to be started in safe mode'' And if I press yes or no it brings me to a windowed blacked out box and it says Metro Last Light Executable has stopped working.
I have been trying to fix this for about 6 hours now and I am pretty pissed off at this point.
The thing is I got it working one time, I was super exited and I exited to game to turn on advanced PhyX and the game wouldnt open back up.
So I turn to the community for help I guess.

Welcome Tigernator! I am with the same issue - I saw your tweet about it aswell.

I have contacted deep silver technical support and am waiting for them to well..respond faster or figure it out.

I think I'm too late but you should stop using your time trying to fix it - the community doesn't help and I've tried well... let's just say I've learnt new things and I still havn't found a solution.

Myself, I have updated all drivers, re-installed all drivers, re-installed the game etc.

I have located the error which is 0xc0000005

This is an access violation error, which I am led to believe to be regarding memory (RAM), the file is trying to access RAM which it's not allowed too, doesn't exist or is corrupted.

I have tried playing around with the permissions for the game, that didn't work.

I ran multiple tests on my own RAM/Memory and it's clean with no problems, so it's not a hardware issue. RAM OR CPU RELATED, since the issue is isolated to this ONE program/game.

I have done a "clean boot" of windows to see if its conflicted with any software. It's not, it didn't work. It might be conflicted with system software or steam though.

Other people who I have talked to have reported the same error code, although there are no similarities in hardware.

I suspect that this is an issue with their coding and that it's likely we can only report the problem and wait and see if they release a patch fixing it. Or hell just figure out a solution for us.

If they figure out a solution and inform me I plan to make the solution available in the steam forums.

[Storchburp]

In the first part of the game, I was able to clip through the side of the moving train and got left behind in the ether as Anna rode away.

[Shurfire]

So far the only issues I've had are that twice I had massive framerate drop for about 10seconds and I find that the nosolise swing WAY to fast. They hit you about 4 times before you can turn around.

Happened to me once.

[Lazzerus]

Has anyone managed to fix the stuttering yet???
I just got the game today and have terrible stutters every couple of seconds, with no frame drops. I see other people having the same problem on here and 5 pages worth on the single topic over on the nvidia forums.

I am running SLI GTX 680 Classified 4g plus and 8 gig ram. I have tried everything I can think of including changing drivers, changing all graphic settings, disabling sli, turning off hyperthreading. Im getting a solid 80fps with very high and ssaa off . The only thing that slightly helped was capping frames at 30 but then the mouse lags alot and it still stutters.

Anyone now how to fix? or any word on a patch? its ruining the game :(

[TheRAMPAGE572]

Hey,

I was playing this game yesterday but when i booted it up today for some reason it now loads to console....

Any help would be great

[DissterRain]

All skins ingame like faces and hands they skins are like dragged down like melting .
All the characters in my game have a texture glitch, where all the textures look as if they're being pulled straight down. everything else in the game is perfectly just all the character models are freaking out. Anyone else have this problem? I've re-installed and played around with my video settings but nothing works. Could it just be my graphics card? Help? i got Dell inspiron core i3 Videocard : Intel HD 3000 it works really fine and the fps is fine and smooth just the texture prob

IN the level when you're first given night vision goggles, they don't work. The animation to put them on works and I get a flicker of green but then the screen goes back to normal colour.

Was this game actually tested? :mad:

[Chimera Knight]

The only glitch I've encountered was getting stuck in walking/running animation. It disables aiming, shooting, item use, etc. I've had it happen probably 6+ times in different levels. The only way I've found to recover from it is to load the last checkpoint, which in some areas means being sent back a long way.

This happened to me on the 360 as well.

[zin]

So far I have had like 2 crashes and one freeze of the game. Also I've notice an odd light bug in Venice near and between two shops that you cannot buy anything from. I run the game flawlessly otherwise at my GTX670 with the beta driver version 320.14. Everything set at maximum in 1920x1080 with SSAA and sync off. Game runs very smooth.

[thuner]

This happened to me on the 360 as well.

Still sounds like a problem with the Platform rather than the Game. I can be wrong though :s

(PS3) on "Bandit" the stealth indicator breaks meaning that the sound plays that they are seeing you but nothing happens, exept for some pop-in nothing much

[Sp34k]

Greetings,

I couldn't find a "bug area" on the forum so I decided to create my post here.

I pre-ordered Metro Last light on steam which I have just installed - but not without issues. The gameplay is fine, I have no freezings but I have sound issues.

If I shoot my gun I can't hear anything and if I look at people talking to me, I can't hear them. I have to turn my (characters) head to the side so the sound is either in my left or right side, looking directly at them makes the sound disappear. Is this something other people have problems with?

A bit hardware info:
Headphones: Bose Quietcomfort 3
Motherboard: Gigabyte P67A-UD4-B3
Ram: 20gb
Graphic card: Nvidia GTX 660 Superclocked (4gb)
CPU: i7 2600k

DxDiag: Sp34k.com/DxDiag.txt

Sound port used is not the one infront of my PC, but in the back.
I hope someone can help! The game looks STUNNING and I can't wait to play it!

I found a fix for this problem, or a fix for me.
Do you have a AfterGlow headset? If so, try unplugging the USB and try launching the game. I know it sounds weird, but it worked for me.

[lockestock]

I am playing on the PS3. After the chapter "Echoes", no new notes/diary entries are showing up when I pick up new collectables in the following chapters. What is the problem?

Ok so I'm having a problem with the game here it is. I don't get it really but I've beat metro last light TWICE on ranger hardcore first time destroying D6 and the second saving it but I still didn't get the achievement for beating it on ranger hardcore!!!

I had the same problem with my logitech G930 surround headphones. I could only hear people talking on left or right not infront or behind. I fixed it by switching from surround to stereo and back. It works fine after that.

The DLC achievements for the ranger mode won't unlock on xbox 360.

Bought the game the day after release and everything was all well and good, it booted up just fine, ran fine, until I actually start playing and then this happens:

Although i hate achivements that needs to be fixed like NOW :mad:

[farsight]

One bug that encountered 4-5 times (on Xbox 360) is that my controls/inventory would lock up, being unable to do anything but move and aim. Restarting from the last checkpoint fixes the problem, but was rather annoying have it happen throughout the game. =P

I'm having the same problem on PC, as soon as I press E(on keyboard) or X(on controller), I'm unable to do anything but look around. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

[ACHILLES4713]

Right after I complete the Red Square level and the screen where Artyom narrates a part of the story before the level loads, it freezes about 1/2-3/4 way into the narration - And I'm forced to restart my console (Xbox 360). It's happened 3 times already, and it's incredibly frustrating and I can't seem to find any fixes online.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
-It doesn't allow you to skip the narration until about 1/2 way through, and apparently it freezes too early for me to skip it :/

I have the exact same problem. For me at least it consistantly freezes at that spot every single time. Because of this, I cannot complete the game. I've since restarted the game hoping it might have been some bug in the save file, but IDK. Hopefuly there will be a patch for the Xbox 360 version soon!

[Zuldrak]

Whenever I do something such as open a door I cannot move, fire my weapon, jump etc... I can just look around. I have to reload to last checkpoint to undo it. I've been playing for a few hours and this has just started occurring. I've tried restarting the game. Is there a fix?

[Chimera Knight]

Did you try clearing the 360's cache?

[farsight]

I didn't. But even if I removed the controller and press E on keyboard (the interact key; analogous to X on controller), the controls still freeze (the only thing I can do is look around).

[Zuldrak]

still having same issue

[antonk999]

Just experienced a RAGE-QUIT-worthy crash on the PS3.

On the "Venice" level, walking around the docks, the game just froze. No response to any controls, or the PS3 button, nothing.

Thankfully the system restarted with a "soft reset" - the button, not by pulling out the power cable. Which at least avoids the 20-minute "filesystem check".

Unfortunately, when I got back into the game,

IT LOST MY ENTIRE SAVE DATA!!!!

As in, I have to start the game FROM THE BEGINNING.

OH. MY. F**KING GOD.

15 chapters into the game, and I have to REDO FROM SCRATCH.

Um. Thanks, Sony and/or A4 Games. Making a backup of savedata was such a big issue?

FFS.

[Herjolfr]

I see the problem has been brought up multiple times, but I'm going to speak up in hopes that the issue gains awareness.

Survivalist (Ranger Hardcore, XB360) achievement didn't pop for me. Also Weapon Smith popped without actually installing all the possible weapon mods. I had only purchased maybe 5, and had only viewed no more than 75% of the possible weapon mods. Not much complaint on the latter glitch, but the Survivalist glitch is experience altering for me. I look forward to my achievements.

[antonk999]

Update: Even though I have the online backup feature enabled, checking the "Saved Game Data Utility" shows a corrupt file in online storage, and the local storage only shows the new/blank gamedata.

So, this thing crashed, overwrote the save with garbage data, AND uploaded the trashed save to the online storage.

Awesome.

[Herjolfr]

Same issue here. I've check numerous forums across the web and the general consensus is that it is currently unobtainable. Even more frightening, since Microsoft requires developers to pay to patch their games, it's possible we may never see this fixed due to developer issues.

I So Know what you mean and the same exact thing that happened to you happened to me. I had three more chapters before beating the game. I have
the PS3 version as well. It froze and the controls were not responsive. I did
a soft Reset. I reloaded the Game and all my Progress Was GONE. I am so
#$##$# to say the least. I can't even look at the game right now.

WOW this takes the cake.

[Zingel1986]

Hi Guys,

After trying to get LL running flawless I am really pissed now.

First I experienced really low FPS win nVidia driver. After changing to BETA it was betwer but I only got max 30FPS with horrible Frame Drops.

I found a solution. My Logitech G19 caused low FPS, better Logitech G Series Software caused it. Now LL was really nice, everything at max except SSAA gave me about 70FPS.

Now after reboot I stuck again at 30 FPS with Frame Drops and I don´t know what to do. I terminated every unnecessary task but nothing helps.

Has anybody an idea?

Using Steam Version of Metro Last Light

My System:
AMD FX-8350
nVidia GeForce GTX680 - Beta driver 320.14
16 GB DDR3 1600
ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0
750W ZALMAN Gold Rock

[Ps4lover]

I feel for you guys it happened to me,

I got to Venice just a had a lovely lap dance 5 bullets it costs lol shot a couple rats had a drink couldnt walk straight etc anyway I went it to a door following this guy then the sound went off couldn't here anything so I went to the menu page then it crashed, freezed on my ps3 so I turned it off. When I went back to the game there was no existence I had ever played it just said new game no continue and no chapters had been completed and I looked at my saved data and it says corrupted data so it looks like I have to do it all over again about 10 hours down the bloody drain absolute joke. I just don't think I can do it all over again. This has pi**ed me off and ruined a good game for me just be careful people.

Wahhhh wahhh now you know why backing up data is a must

Really f**king constructive commentary...

Did you happen to miss the part where this is happening on the PS3? As in, there is NO OPTION to manually backup the data. The system handles it.

And, even if I could somehow PREDICT that it would trash the savegame - it didn't even give me a CHANCE to back it up. Because it AUTOMATICALLY uploaded the trashed save to the online backup - didn't ask for confirmation to overwrite - and AUTOMATICALLY created a new savegame starting at Chapter 0 (Introduction).

So, please tell me WHEN exactly was I supposed to "back it up". I'd love to hear it.

I've NEVER had a problem with any other game on the PS3. Dead Space 1, 2, Extraction, and 3. RAGE & RAGE DLC Pack. Bioshock 1, 2, and Infinite. Plants VS Zombies. Cuboid. Far Cry 1 & 2. Uncharted. Doom. And so on, and so on... 400+ savegames from a huge variety of publishers, in a variety of genres, without a SINGLE problem.

And now, here's one game which has an EXTREMELY fragile savegame system, where 1 glitch wipes it out - and destroys the backups. AUTOMATICALLY. WITHIN A SPLIT SECOND. WITHOUT ANY CHANCE OF USER INTERVENTION. (Caps Lock is to drive home the point that there was NOTHING I could do).

Myself, Darkrose2222, and Ps4lover are reporting this CRITICAL issue, it's a game-breaking issue, it's not an inconvenience but a goddamn RAGE-INDUCING problem... and instead of contributing something useful, or at least commiserating, or, hey, here's a novel idea, not saying anything if you don't have anything to contribute, what we get is a snide commentary along the lines of "it's all your own fault".

What. The. Hell. Man?

[antonk999]

Piece of advice for PS3 players:

If MLL crashes/freezes - DO NOT START THE GAME again. If you do, it will create a new "BLANK" savegame, and you will definitely lose your progress.

Go into "Save Game Utility", and check both the local storage (hard drive) and the Online Storage for the MLL savegame file.

If it has the "M" icon, chances are it's OK. The corrupt one on my system had the "broken lightning bolt" icon, and a "character-soup" name.

You can use the utility to copy the savegames to/from online storage, and to a memory stick.

Which is what I'll be doing every couple of chapters from now on...

[Defected]

I think tessellation on high settings gives me black screen and with that comes forced reboot because I can't see or hear anything . windows key / right / right / up / enter , will not reboot PC . Only Metro last light causes this black screen lock up issue . Not sure if its Nvidia related or the game itself ?

I was afraid to call him on his BS. But Thank You for Defending us.

No this is no true Gamer or there comment would have been helpful not
insulting.

Like you said it helps no one with a comment like that. I thought this forum
was about helping people not playing the Blame Game.

This is such a Troll Comment. I mean he makes it sound this is a small
thing and were angry over a dumb Thing.

I was so close to beating the game and then Boom everything went to hell.

We pay 60 bucks for the Game and there should not be a game breaking
Bug such as this one.

This is not something during the editing process that could have been over looked.

How do we know something we don't know ???

I don't expect a game to Crash when I spent 60 bucks on it.

I should not have to take time backing up my data it not my job.

I mean I have no choice but to do it. It is what it is.

But we are not to blame for this.

So I can understand why someone would be raging like this.

This is so Wrong.

It not acceptable there is no Excuse for this to be happening
to people.

I am still Quite Upset over this. I am going to replay the game from the Start.
It a good Game. But I am not sure I am going to enjoy it quite as much after
this. I know I am letting the Game Win.

I have never in my Life had a game Crash like this and Frankly this game was
not edited enough. I won't believe that no one knew about this Bug it not
something you can over look during Editing.

What The Heck 4 a and Deep Silver ???

I contacted both and they say there aware of the Issue. But sadly if a patch comes out we all will be done with the game more than likely.

[Darkrose2222]

I Dislike Auto Save because of this. I usually like to have more then one save File for my games just in case. Instead of having to start the game from Scratch I would only have
to redo a couple of chapters not all of them. It has become such a huge Headache just to play a F.cking game it should not be this hard or time consuming. So I am going to start to play the game again but if it happens again I am done with this game.

[Ramirez!]

Hello everyone.

I had to force restart my computer whilst M:LL was running, and I hit force restart.

As a result, Metro will now fail to load and ask me if I want to run it in safe mode or not, and either option will just give me a black screen and no further. It was working perfectly fine up 'till now.

If anyone has a fix or any ideas, it'd be a great help, as I would like to continue streaming it.

I have already tried a re-install, but the problem persists.

Bumping my own thread.

If i'm on the wrong part of the forums, if someone could redirect me, I would appreciate it.

[Ramirez!]

Thank you whoever moved it in here, however i'm starting to get crack-addict-esque shakes from M:LL withdrawal.

Anyone got -any- ideas?

Hello there

Metro Last Light keeps crashing the Nvidia Display Driver on a random basis and I have to force exit the game.

My detailed system specifications:

ASUS Z77 WS
Intel i5-3570k at 4400Mhz
2x 8GB DDR3 1866/C9
ASUS Geforce GTX Titan, no Overclock. Default GPU Boost at 1019Mhz.
Samsung 840 Pro 256GB
Windows 8 Pro x64
Nvidia Driver 320.14 Beta (tried 314.22 WHQL as well)

Game settings:

2560x1440, everything at Very High, PhysX enabled, no SSAA

Sometimes I can play 2-3 hours straight without any problems and performance is really great for a single Titan at this resolution but then the game just freezes and after force quitting it I see the Nvidia Display Driver crashed and recovered:

Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.

This can also happen in the Benchmark after running it for 10-20 times in a loop.

I'm very confident my video card and the rest of my hardware are fine, I have been running several Benchmarks (Unigine Valley and Heaven, 3DMark11 and 2013 one) as well as other games (Tomb Raider and Hitman Absolution). All of these are very demanding as well and they run without any problems. I also rolled back the Driver from 320.14 to 314.22 but the issue persists. Sometimes I also see some textures not being loaded or weird flimmering and stutter in Metro.

Anyone else got these Driver crashes in Metro when their PC used to run other games just fine?

I really hope its not a graphics card problem and 4A/Nvidia will fix it.

Thanks and kind regards

Intro (Dark Ones "attack") and final battle with Pavel scenes have a VERY ugly terrain fog.
Please fix that terrible effect!

Description of location:

I am currently loading the game from a save spot underneath a building that is on fire and there are rows of plants and stairs in front of me. I think its called "though fire" but not sure. Anyways, If I go up a short flight of stairs there is a motor that I can turn off. If I go the left after I go up the short stairs I have to go around a larger flight of stair and there is a guy standing at the bottom.

Issue/bug on xbox360:

When I begin to play and I sneak up behind an enemy to stealth stab them the screen freezes and the enemy does not drop. An icon showing his ammo is available that I can pickup but he is frozen standing up in this manikin pose and I am frozen as well but all xbox and game menu controls still work. I have reproduced this is over and over again, tried a different sequence of events and it still happens. I am unable to continue the game. It freezes if I stab the guy in the bottom of the stairs or the guy at the top of the stairs.

Please HELP!

[Jas0n]

At the end of the Khan level before getting into the buggy, I collect the med kits from the locker in anticipation of the next level and shadow ranger achievement.

Before the loading screen I have 5 med kits and playing on ranger difficulty. Once the Chase level is loaded I immediately check my med kits and I have 3.

you need 5 med kits to make it to the train on the chase level, this bug has basically stalled my shadow ranger run. Even worse, after the save point on the chase level just before the buggy flips over your cart.. If you progress past the checkpoint and use a few med kits but still die, upon loading the aforementioned check point you well have less med kits then when you triggered the save point.

So to sum it up, finish the Khan level with 5 med kits on ranger, load chase level immediatly have 3 med kits. Trigger the first save point with 3 med kits die further down the road, reload the first checkpoint and you can have as little as 1-2 med kits.

I....I don't know. I managed to get through both the train and the Kremlin ambush without killing anyone, but it seems like in order to successfully defend D6, you have to take out both the tank and the phalanx guarding the flamethrower. (since apparently sinking 30 AMR rounds into his helmet nor 30 AMR rounds into the spouts to his tank seem capable of taking him down) Yet, no achievement. Did I do something wrong, or is the game and/or its achievements bugged? (I also never got the achievement for beating Ranger mode when I beat it my first time through on Ranger Normal)

[p1xel8ted]

Did a memory test, all good. Nothing is overclocked, everything is watercooled (so its not temperature/stress related). And no other games are crashing.

Windows 8 (Latest updates for all software/bios/drivers.)
2GB GTX 680
Corsair Dom. 16GB Ram
Intel 520 SSD.
Intel i7 3930k.

Seems the crashes are isolated to the Bandit level. Replaying on Ranger HC, get to approximately the same spot (as previous play through) and boom. Not Responding.

Happens at the caravan, during the long conversation they have.

Monitoring GPU usage, and GPU RAM is sitting at 990mb give or take a few, and when it crashes usage drops from 50% to 0%.

Only way to recover is to Ctrl+Alt+Del, Sign Out/Swtich User and back in again.

Tried putting everything on the lowest settings etc, and still no good. Also used Process Explorer to see what files Metro access's during that scene/part and re-downloaded them, but made no difference.

Also tried putting on another hard drive with a different controller, still no good. Doing my head in.

[lebbers]

Hmm, that's odd. I'm having the same crash in the same place. I've replayed the Bandits level several times and if I never revisit the caravan, it never crashes; if I decide to sell off some bandit kit and backtrack, however, there's an excellent chance it will crash as I get close to the caravan.

I haven't been able to find any sort of crashlog, unfortunately.

Beyond that, I haven't had any stability problems anywhere else or in any other game, for that matter.

[Sharkey]

Beat Ranger Hardcore yesterday (Xbox 360) and didn't get the Hardcore achievements for it. Saw someone else mention this as well.

[Artyom2]

This achievement glitch is complained about ALL OVER THE PLACE has anyone heard news of a future update yet?
I was worried at first that we would never see a patch when I read about the horrible working conditions and miniscule budget that 4A had to work with but it was just announced, yesterday i think, that 4A is planning four add-on packs in the near future, first two in June, so it seems logical that they could simply add a patch onto the dlc when they release it and hopefully that way they can avoid the $40,000 microsoft fee for patching.

im keeping my fingers crossed

At least you guys get to play and finish the game! Still haven't been able to touch the dam thing because of stuttering on the PC.....

[lordnox]

I know that feel Lazzerus. My game suffers from stuttering too :/ i wish a patch gets released soon that fixes this. I'm reading the reviews and the game is good but it's no fun playing if you can't play it smoothly. I want to enjoy the game to the max so i'm not even finishing the 1st level untill the stutters are fixed. And i really REALLY hope they will be.

[Renko]

....Or simply stuff that I want to delve my opinion in the game.

Warning: This thread may be spoiler heavy so before scrolling down make sure you finish the game 100%.

STORY, CHARACTERS & ENDINGS

-The story of Metro Last Light is nothing but amazing. But I can't help but feel unnerve with the changes in some of the characters looks and personalities, the feeling that the story has been rushed and the two endings.

Characters:

Artyom - Seriously? Why change the tone of his voice? I think the old voice of Artyom fits him better. It gives off a unique persona to his character. But honestly I have no complains about the voice change. I just wonder why they change it in the first place....

Miller - In the Metro 2033, the way Miller looks and sound like makes him to be this calm and charismatic leader who is in good and friendly terms with his men. The way he acts in the first games makes him an approachable character at the same retaining a sense of being the leader of a powerful order. He can even tell a joke just like Ulman sometimes....

No, not in this game....damn.

Now, he is this grumpy, serious looking old man who yells orders at me that makes me really want to punch him in the face for making me kill the last Dark One.

He also treats Khan like dirt despite helping him to find Artyom in the first game.

Ulman - Ulman isn't Ulman anymore. Before the game was released, I was hoping to see his cheery charisma and hear his wise-crack jokes and maybe be one of Artyom's companions. But no, not in this game....again. They turned him into this serious soldier lackey instead who tells Khan to shut up instead.

Now he is more of an asshole. and he just anti-climatically got splat in the good ending.

Khan - I got no problem with Khan. He is wise and strong as ever as he was in the first game. But why do they have to turn him into this old bandana wearing hippie?

Andrew "The Blacksmith" - Again they changed what he look like and sound like. They turned andrew into this bald old man...and notice that he never mentions Khan despite being established that the two of them are friends.

Anna (and other women in the game) - Anna is not a returning character but a new one. She is Miller's daughter and the Order's top sniper.

When the trailer 'Redemption' was premiered in Youtube, I was excited because I thought Anna is going to be this strong female companion that will give a different feel in the game, seeing that all of Artyom's companions were male.

But no, not this time around.....

The way she interacts with Artyom can be understandable if she was already established that she was Artyom's partner for many months since he became a Renger.

Se treats Artyom and the Dark Ones like shit....she didn't explain to Artyom why she wasn't able to rescue him from the Nazis while he was unconscious in the gardens....then she turned all mushy and shit...then after rescuing her from Oktyabrskaya, they make love...all in a short time. And I was all like WTF?!

Here we have a potential strong female character only to be turned into this...this...HORNY BITCH!

V2ju--mI4CU

She was turned into this love bitch for the sake of the Sacrifice ending.

First of all if they want to take that route there should be an already established relationship between Artyom and Anna. Like treating Artyom with disrespect while secretly having an attraction to him.

This is just minor but...the way she look like make her a bit older(?) than Artyom who in the game is now 21 year old. I don't know, that is how I see it...

The other female "characters" in the game are nothing more but Vendors, Mothers, Widows, Performers, rape victims and....Strippers....motherf*cking STRIPPERS!

Here is a good example....

LKvqoDOtZO8

That segment is unnecessary as fuck! Like Artyom wants to see a lap dance first before he can continue to pursue Pavel...what? Couldn't he just give the lady an MGR and leave?

The women in the game were such a wasted potential especially Anna. *sighs*

WEAPONS

- Don't get me wrong, the firearms in Metro Last Light are great and superb. Each has its purpose, even the sidearms are useful, none of the guns are useless in a sense as to other videogames. It is all up to the player in which weapon they prefer.

http://www.senpaigamer.com/sites/default/files/news/sony/2013/03/28-metro-last-light-2.jpg

http://www.imfdb.org/images/thumb/9/91/Metro2034RPK.jpg/600px-Metro2034RPK.jpg

But my only complain is about two weapons, the AKu and the RPK. Both need 'special conditions' to be obtained in the game. The AKu is part of the infamous Ranger mode DLC and is only usable only in Ranger Mode. The RPK need a special code for it to be unlock in the game.

What about those people who didn't pre-order?

What about those people who ,in for some reason, can't afford the DLC?

What about those who want to use the AKu in other difficulties but can't?

What about hose people who didn't get the special code for the RPK?

Well, sucks for them. They lose. (I pity them really...) :(


BUGS, GLITCHES & ENEMY AI

- Just like its predecessor, Metro Last Light also share some horrible bugs and glitches in the PC which have been pointed out in numerous reviews and forum posts. Problems with graphic cards especially AMD ones are quite problematic. FOV options are non-existent and other serious technical difficulties are rampant to some players.

Fortunately, 4A is hard at work in repairing these grievances through the release of update patches.

Aside from Bugs and Glitches, the game suffers from bad enemy AI....I mean very bad, especially on stealth sections. There is a time that I encountered an enemy going back and fourth, shouting, firing his gun. I was just standing in front of him watching.

RANGER MODE

- There is nothing new about this one. It was one great disappointment to many. Though the Ranger mode in Metro Last Light is nothing compared to the horrific brutality of the Ranger mode in Metro 2033.

Whoever that person who decided to turn Ranger mode into a DLC should just die. (it was a joke.) :lol:

[Lagtagbag]

my god you are whining.

[Oppai]

I definitely agree with your take on Miller and Ullman. I liked him a lot in the first game, very patient and smart. In LL he's just an angry old guy who gets mad and feels borderline unreasonable much of the time. New voice was bad, too.

Anna was so forced, even awkward. At the beginning of the game she gives you that cold shoulder "don't get in my way newbie" attitude and then when you meet her later, she does this complete 180 and is in love with you for some reason. Hey baby we've spent a cumulative five minutes together so a long term thing probably ain't gonna happen, but if you want to hook up for some quick guilt sex for leaving me to the Nazis a couple days ago, then that's cool. I get she was there for that hope and redemption thing, but it was so poorly done.

Honestly though, my biggest problem character-wise is Khan. I was so, so, so disappointed by him in this game:

In 2033, Khan was a great character. He had this sort of subtle wisdom to him, and many of his lines doubled with a philosophical or religious meaning to them. If you were paying attention, you really got the feeling that this guy knows a lot more about the supernatural aspects of the metro than he's letting on. His dialogue had a very contemplative tone to it, like he was not only comfortable with this new world but he had come to understand it. I still remember his line, "An anomaly. A new phenomenon, in a new world." Anyone else would have panicked, but he was calm and contemplative, sort of meditating on the fact that in this new world, even the most terrifying things can be nonviolent or even friendly.

I felt that anomaly chapter was key to the game, as it connected to the dark ones perfectly. Just like the anomaly, the dark ones were also a new phenomenon that was frightening at first glance, but were actually helpful and even friendly.

Khan had that way of conveying the main themes of the game with very few choice words, and he had a very ethereal feel to him. Loved the guy, and he added a great deal of depth to the game. Even the rangers appeared to respect him, letting him into their base at the end of the game.


Then Last Light completely turns Khan around. Now the rangers no longer respect him, even dislike him. Ullman wants to kick him out of the base, and Miller orders him restrained and removed for making a simple suggestion.

But worse, Khan no longer has that sort of subtle wisdom to him. Now he just rambles on about the pre-war world with no subtlety at all, punching me in the face with a fist full of thematic philosophy. The way he just kind of launches into the tomb talk at the beginning of the game on the D6 elevator felt very out of place, as did most of his long talks that had no segways or prompts.

"Oh hey Artyom, before you finish this chapter let me give you this long speech that serves as a very obvious metaphor for what you're about to do."

[Pip314]

Throw some more spoiler tags in those posts, boys. You both just ruined a ton of shit for me...

[Oppai]

Whoops, I'll do that, but why would you read a thread clearly labelled as talking about story and characters when you are trying to avoid spoilers?

[Potarto]

Because it's entirely possible to do so without spoiling major moments.

Not a bad post, just emphasize a bit more that you liked the game in spite of its flaws and maybe put another spoiler tag here and there just in case. Kids and attention spans these days, you know.

I agree with a fair amount of points. Just to (somewhat needlessly) clarify, I really do love the game, but I feel like Anna should have definitely had some more backstory. I felt like there was a huge portion of the developed relationship missing.

Miller and Ulman were alright. I preferred their 2033 counterparts greatly, but they still work as characters.

Also yeah, Ranger Mode is very disappointing. What a shame, I played nothing but it in 2033 after my first playthrough.

[Cheaptricks]

mispost*.

[KLMKsunbunny]

i'm with you on the new Khan, Oppai. The journey through the ghost tunnels with Khan in Metro 2033 was a very special time. Some of the best moments ive seen in any game. His philosophiocal speeches in 2033 were far 'darker' in tone (...heaven, hell and purgatory were atomised as well) and was made more intense by the great voice acting. One of those old wise voices that reassures and can send you to sleep, but when angered would be full of power. Just perfect casting for Khan. The darkness was sadly missing from Last Light. i can get over the makeover, khan as a hippy seems quite fitting, but changing the voice actor was a terrible choice. The new game is a bit more "hollywood" rather than an obscure european oddity. Is the new khan voiced by Lance Henriksen?

The other thing that didnt sit right for me was Khan taking part in the battle for D6. Yes, we all know he used to be a soldier, but i cant imagine that the 2033 Khan would pick a "side". The Khan of 2033 and the novel seemed to have become a "lone" mythical figure walking the metro tunnels, appearing at the right moment to help some, but appearing as an avenging angel to destroy others..

Heres hoping for a khan mission in the forthcoming DLC...

Well-said. I totally agree.

The latest "bug" I've encountered is I did a reinstall of Windows recently, and afterwards, updated my nvidia drivers to the latest WHQL version, and now the game won't load. Just black-screens completely. Have to use Taskmanager to kill it. Now reverting back to previous working drivers.... Hopefully, they'll work. :(

[LOEF]

Anyone else had a bug on Xbox 360 where you don't get the achievement; "Survivalist: Complete the game in Ranger Hardcore"

Even if you have completed the game on that mode ... twice might I add. I don't mind playing it over and over and I'm not after achievements just thought I would bring it up.

[LastLightMember]

So when I could not complete the catacombs level because I couldn't kill the rhino and ran out of ammo I decided to reload the level from the menu.
When I finally came back to the beast it was unkillable and just standing still, not moving. Now I'm stuck because of it :mad:
Does anyone know a workaround?

When something like that happens, the only workaround I know is going back to last checkpoint save and hoping that it won't happen again. If that doesn't work, you may have to Chapter Select to a previous point. Unfortunately, that usually kills any "hardcore" or "ranger" difficulty playthrough achievements. It is a highly annoying bug that so far I have avoided. But lots of people are getting those. Sad and frustrating, to say the least.

[Q Dude 87]

I completed the game on ranger hardcore more and did not get the achievement. is anyone else having these problems? also i skipped as many cutscense if that makes a difference.... Please Help!

[Hoenkoper]

I don't know if other players have this problem, but I can't change the gamma which is really annoying for the first halve of the game. Any solutions?
