Turbine Entertainment today released eight new screenshots of their upcoming expansion to Asheron's Call 2, entitled "Legions". In addition to the images, they also passed along word that pre-orders are now available.

All very well rendered, bet it won't look like that to our systems. Unless they are moving this to a new server setup expect lag to be bad. Also most of the lower game is pretty much the same. Lot of old bugs still there.

Actually this screenshots arent even on very high resolution, you need high end machine to play in maximum details, but to play in High it runs fine, the game looks beautiful even without very high, and for a 2 year old game its still the best looking mmorpg imho, they improved alot of the lag, and they improving more with this expansion, they correcting alot of old bugs For those that left AC2 don't forget to check this expansion, now AC2 have 100% less Microsoft |

I was always very impressed with AC II's graphics. And yes those screencaps have to be on a low res setup cause alot of the effects arent showing. I wonder why they didn't crank it all the way up though for the publicity shots, the graphics engine in AC 2 is one of its strongest points, they should take advantage of that. |

Give me a break, a lot of the same bugs are still there I been in this game from beta to now. I love how people try and put one over on others. My system is fine with an Intel 3.02 ghz HT 2gb of ddr dual on a sata raid system and a 6800 256mb. The game you are right is over 2 years old and the gfx still leave a lot to be desired. I admit the high level is better than the lower (original game) but over a year and a half on the high detail what would you expect. So to the ones starting fresh prepare to run into the same bugs that has always been there. If you go into the crafting don't say i didn't warn you about how bad it is. With so many better games out there I just can't see anyone going to AC2. Heck AC1 would be better and thats stretching it. Remember all the original guys that made AC1 great have been gone a long time now. Stormwatlz will always be missed. |

Ummm, I wouldn't give full blame to MS for wrecking the game. MS just expected Turbine to live to Turbine's own deadline that they couldn't meet. MS managed to run AC 1 successfully for many years. |
