    1. This wasn't smooth at all. The fps were just barely tolarable even with your 8800GTX , not really choppy but far from enjoyable .

    2. Where was everyone ?? The world looked so empty , just like a single player rpg o_O. I wouldn't want to see the performance on crowded places - if they really exist in AOC.

    3. Even with the bad performance - the graphics didn't look that good , maybe just a tad better than WoW's but the player and npc models seemed dull and lifeless same with voice acting ...

    And to think I was ever excited about this lame excuse of a mmorpg ..feels like dark and light all over but with shitty instancing and loading.

    rip off.

    first of all... 40 FPS is damn good for any game, it ran perfectly fine

     

    second of all... it was the nighttime solo play mode. you do this to complete the destiny line of quests (i believe) with no interference

    and third... are you freakin kidding me? AOCs graphics are immeasurably better than WoWs cartoons.

• • WOW of COX?

  • why does wow suck huh? well i could go on for hours and hours but i will make it short.

    a) its by far the easiest game ive ever played, which is a bad thing because everyone is at the same skill lvl

    b) due to a) being considered "good" is solely dependent on items and level. a lvl 70 can take a 65 any day, no matter what. which therefore means the best player has the most worthless life.

    c) it is the most repetitive game i have ever played as well. not only in quests but in the combat. first of all the quests are all the same, ie. run really far and kill 20 of these. and combat is identical from lvl 1-70. my routine from 1-60 was: right click-press 3-2-1-sit back and watch. tens of thousands of times doing this same thing is not what i call fun.

    d) ill hit on the combat system again. the combat system is border line turn based, anymore it would be pokemon for gameboy color. wheres the action? the excitement? you can fight monsters reclined in a chair with 1 finger.

    e) community. due to the simplicity and concept (cartoony fantasy) the fans it attracts are untolerable (try going to the barrens)

    f) the biggest fault (or money scam) of all is that the game isnt even fun(ish) until lvl 60, or now 70 i guess. it requires weeks-months of boring repetitive gameplay to even begin the game.

    thats just my opinion. ill admit, i was addicted to WoW for a few weeks, but my last few days of play time was spent leaping from bed to bed in the inn at gadgetzan (talking with friends of course) because i didnt want to leave and begin a really long quest for 2% exp.

    this is why i am so excited for age of conan. it seems a developer has finally decided to focus  on the  non WoW/EQ crowd. a crowd that enjoys more mature, fast paced, exciting games.

• • Play WOW?

  • .... seriously? your main argument against WoW's difficulty is the time it requires... thats because its 100% item/level based. a blind preteen lvl 70 could take a college student at lvl 65. the end.. the game is retarded, requires no skill and no life. i would go as far to say that WoW is easier then pokemon yellow for the gameboy color, and less fun at that.

    my routine to get to 60 when i played:

    right click monster

    press 3-wait a sec-press 2-wait a sec-press 1

    sit back and watch and/or head downstairs to grab a drink

    loot

    ...woah astonishing

• • Siege Battle question

  • im sorry but all you kids who are in favor of 24/7 vulnerability are the most worthless sonsofbitches ever.

    seriously? you want to be forced to stand in your city, chattin it up with NPCs, and whackin off to your succubus for hours a week? and then you expect the rest of your guild to be on call 24/7?

    us less worthless people around the globe have lives. these lives consist of school, jobs, sports, girls, etc. not all mmoers are like you guys.

    tell me, whats more fun? losing your keep in 10 minutes in a small battle because 3/4 of your guild is asleep or having a life and then taking it back in 10 more minutes the next day, or having massive, epic battles of 100 or more people for control a few times a week?
