Here is the workaround listed below to get the game running. I got this from a steam review comment and I'll list it below. You can mess with the settings a little bit to get it working best with your particular setup. I was able to get it working starting up with steam after messing with this. You may not have any of these problems and can get the game for a dollar cheaper on GOG.com

"-First go here: https://github.com/narzoul/DDrawCompat/releases and download the ddraw.zip for the most recent release.

-Extract the files and place them in the Deadlock 2 folder within the steamapps/common.

-Do what's suggested on the first page of this thread and do the Set Launch Properties. Type "-w" (not sure if this actually makes a difference)

-Go to the local files and find the .exe for DeadLock. (right click deadlock launchers) Go into the properties menu under the compatibility tab.

-Select Reduced color mode, 16-bit

-Select the remaining 3 option below this then Apply and hit OK.

-Make a shortcut of the .exe file that you just changed the properties on and be sure to run from this one only. Opening in steam will not work."


This is a retro review for Deadlock 2 Shrine Wars. Besides the horrible choice to use stiff 3d portraits with mainly just the mouth jabbering in place of the FMV dialogue apart from the cutscenes, it's a better game than Deadlock Planetary Conquest across the board once you get used to the new format used to manage your colony.
