Doesn't work with Windows XP Service pack 2! [Posted on 2004-12-28] Don't buy this game if you're running Windows XP service pack 2.
It doesn't run, and the developer apparently has no plans to fix it.
Excellent tactical RPG [Posted on 2005-02-03] ** Update: the SP2 patch is out, as promised. It is at http://www.freedomfans.com/news.php?id=37 **
Other reviews here and in numerous gamezines cover the game itself well, but it should be noted that the review posted by "Your average computer geek" is factually incorrect. The developer is working to fix the SP2 problem. According to the developer (which has been active in supporting the game since its release):
Freedom Force and Windows XP Service Pack 2
There is a known compatibility issue with Freedom Force and the
new Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2. We are working on a
solution and will post it here. We thank you for your patience.
Unofficially, the developer notes that work on the fix has been slowed by the scramble to get other new games ready for publication, but March is a likely release date.
DO NOT BUY IF HAVE XP WITH SERVICE PACK 2 [Posted on 2005-02-09] If you have Windows XP with Service Pack 2, this game will not work on your computer. In August, the makers had promised to make a patch when they had time. It is now February.
