Title: I can't get the Beyond the Red Line demo to work, Please Help!
Post by: Major Sveinsson on April 02, 2010, 03:32:30 pm

Hey folks, I'm a huge fan of BSG, and really want to play the demo, but after I install the game and launch it, I get to the menu and try to start a single player campaign, I click on start, but nothing happens, instead it just takes me back to the main menu. Is this just because the game doesn't work anymore, or can I fix this? I think I have tried the updater but it didn't work. Please Help.

Cheers.

So did you go to the campaign room, select the demo campaign, hit 'okay', go back to the main menu, and then select 'briefing'?

You need to select 'briefing' or 'ready'. Or something like that. I recall it being sort of smaller than the other buttons.

In short, there's no technical problem, you're just hitting the wrong button.

While I have no issue with the BtRL demo (I've always said it's still one of my kids, even if I didn't get custody :p ) this really belongs in the support forum rather than here as it's not actually Diaspora related.
