That is odd. I have been running this game on Windows 8 for almost 6 months and did not have an issue installing or running the game? I wonder what is different?

I do not have Windows 8 as of yet, but I'm guessing it has something to do with user setup.

I am having trouble with this as well. I am getting an error saying Laucher is not responding every time I try and start a game. I also can't see the photos you are posting

I set my launcher to run in Windows 7 compatibility mode and as an administrator but it does not help anything.
The launcher still does no respond.
I have ven went through the list of compatibility modes and none of them worked.

running on win 8 (64 bit) without any problems
it must have something to do with win 8 UAC, because that makes problems in many other games too if false configurated... you can read it all over the net

i for myself have no problems at all with win 8 on any game ive tried so far

Hey, I have same problem like FunkyFlip.
When first time I run game on Win8 everything was ok, but after last update it's not working at all.
Already re-installed game 2 times, tried all suggestions offered in wiki and forum and......nothing....

Any ideas?
