So, yeah, I'm new to this (obviously since I'm posting here...) and I've installed the game and everything already, but I've kind of come to a stop...could anyone help_ Everytime I click to launch the game, it says "Failed to initialize web browser". I'm just thinking I don't have the right browser for it, but I don't know. I don't do computer games much often. So...yeah_

Welcome aboard, pilot!

P.S. Use Firefox.

Are you trying to run the game from your desktop shortcut_ If so open it from the Hawken folder in Programs. The shortcut could be broken. If it is broken, delete it and make a new one.

edit: Misspelled something, dont want the grammar fuzzy bunny to get me .

Ah, Firefox. Why can't everything be Chrome_ So much easier. But thank you! I'll go try that now...

No, I did move the game from my computer though, onto a flashdrive, but I didn't try it before I moved it.

That may be the problem, i'm not sure. I would suggest putting it back and checking.

Welcome to Hawken!

And, yeah, I would install it to the drive you intend to run it off of, because that's asking for trouble.

I think that was it, it's starting up now! Thanks a lot!

No problem. Some games don't like you doing that,

Yeah, well, I just didn't want to take up a lot of space on the computer since it isn't just mine, but oh well, they'll get over it.
