I will tell you the truth. I play CO on a PC that I know does not meet the specs suggested by CO. Well it meets most, but definitely not the part about suggested Video Cards. But the idea of being able to fly like a superhero, up in the clouds, was too big of a draw. I had to see if it was worth it. Flying, I mean. It kind of is.
But that means if the map is particularly filled with toon activity, my guys will always have trouble turning here or jumping over an object there. And some objects are pretty much "invisible" to me and will likely stay that way.
I am not complaining about any of this, just stating a fact. This "handicap" is one of the reason I prefer to solo. I do not want to slow any one down or get stuck with hang time at the wrong moment and cause another player to die because of my toon's sluggish/erratic behavior.
All of that aside, I have an odd favor I'd like to ask of one of you guys. Could someone post a screen cap of a trash can, a mail box and a Qularr Console. I'm curious to see what I have been missing.
I cannot figure out why any trash can or mail box is so special that it would fade to lines on my screen. I mean that literally a mailbox. I get why the Qularr Console might look cloaked to me. I do see a strobe effect and a kind of paint smear-thing where my toon is supposed to smash/zap it to complete a quest. I can only assume that it's very sci-fi with glowing panels and all of that, so it happens to be hard for my system to render correctly. I'll live as long as I can click on the "out line" and my hero and make it work as needed.
Also, does anyone know of other objects that might be "cloaked" to my toon's view later on? I guess it's a silly question since my situation is probably a rare one.
Or maybe one of you guys knows of a youtube type walk-throughs that just happens to show the objects I've not been seeing?
Let me stress again, I am enjoying the game even though I cannot see the odd object here and there, but I AM curious about what I am not seeing and what other objects I might not see in the future.
TIA
P. S. - When my hero picks up an object to throw, it then turns invisible. Crates, boxes, boulders, lampposts, and cars all turn invisible when lifted. Anyone else have this happen? I seem to remember a player the calling this a "game feature." Yes, I do understand calling it a "game feature" is meant as a complaint about a yet to be addressed bug that players can work around, that annoys non-the-less.
