cpnharlock writes: Hmm. What I saw wasn't ground breaking by any means, but I fail to see how you can claim there was no information. The crafting and city-building looks serviceable, but not spectacular. I don't see how you can say any more than that about it at this point. Fri May 09 2008 11:34PM Report

chryses writes: mmm...plenty of information on city building and I don't remember many MMO's that have it on this scale. Decent video but I think thefreshblow watched something different Sat May 10 2008 3:14AM Report

tazarconan writes: thefreshflow..unless u r a blizzard agent,u really seem to need brain tranfusion. Have u even watched the whole video? Unless u have seen again things like these ofc like building a guild's city or more complex crafting system in Wow which is si far the best mmo in market or eq ofc..And since your so called high hopes for AOC are so ruined why dont u feel free to share with the ppl here your ideas? In any case dont try to manipulate the minds of ppl that just trying to read the comments without watching the video =] Sat May 10 2008 10:48AM Report

Grozfox writes: Hey Baggs aparently you must be from another country or some your fresh out of highschool kid because getting a job and buying a new pc isn't as easy as you think. some of us are in debt in the U.S. and dont have 8,000$ to freely throw around on new stuff we want. The game looks good tho I'm still waiting to get in the beta. Sun May 11 2008 12:21PM Report

ToyDoll writes: Really impressed with the state of things in the FP beta now, I think they've really pulled it together. Sun May 11 2008 12:52PM Report

Consensus writes: awesome video. acording to devs crafting is going to very simple and easy in this game, which is kind of a shame. but I still think combat is more important and fun than grinding crafting. Sun May 11 2008 5:09PM Report

Jeehao writes: it will be fun to see how many players that can't play this game without lag:) it needs a pretty good computer if you want to pvp and have some fps and a screen that does not freeze some sec sometimes. Sun May 11 2008 7:45PM Report

Jeehao writes: I Meant: it will be fun to see how many players that 'can' play this game without lag:) I have a decent playing computer and the PvP was a horror for me cause of all the lag when many people came alround Mon May 12 2008 9:45AM Report

weg886 writes: Well you got a nice crafting system , But will crafting be a part of liveing in the game to make money? Or can i get the same stuff from a npc? If i can get the same stuff off a npc then crafting is a wast of time for this game. Does stuff wear out and break in the game? Stuff that wears out keeps everyone makeing stuff and keeps there job in the game going. If npc sells anything a player makes then its a wast of time to do crafting makeing the game less fun!

Wakygreek writes: There is a difference between Lag and FPS. If you lag too much you want to try changing a few options on your router or stop downloading while playing the game. As far as the FPS some people have been complaining with good computers. Most of the problems have been while they were running vista. However even my friend that runs vista seems to be playing without any serious problems. As far as the pvp goes, well turn off alot of the extra settings if your computer cant handle it.

Fion writes: Wegg crafting will add unique items to the game. Crafted gear is the only gear you can socket with gemstones. Gemstones you can get via a variety of sources. But ONLY crafted gear can be socketed. This means crafted gear will be very useful to those looking for a custom set of gear. Especially for PvP where you'll be able to slot the gear with gems with PvP oriented bonuses. So yea, unlike WoW where 80% of crafting benefits only the crafter. In AoC, even though the crafting will be relatively simplistic, it should be very useful to everyone. I'd rather see a complex crafting system, but I'm more then happy with the way things have turned out and that crafters will be important to the game. Mon May 12 2008 6:56PM Report

Fion writes: Gear, at the moment, does not degrade. There is no repairing to the game. While yes gear that eventually falls apart does increase the need for crafters. It shouldn't be much a problem, and removes the pain in the ass money sink that is repairing broken gear. Mon May 12 2008 6:57PM Report

Sinistrad writes: Most of peoples' problems stem from too little RAM. Vista uses more RAM, so if you have a Vista system you just need a bunch more RAM. You really need the 64-bit version, because 32-bit can't recognize more than 4 gigs (including video RAM). Tue May 13 2008 1:57AM Report
