Is it possible to get some screenies? or are you still under some sort of NDA until the 20th?

Ignignort · 18th May 2008, 9:32 PM

Tsudo · 18th May 2008, 10:35 PM

PoM absolutely dominates.

I ganked you earlier Igni... I recognised your name but couldn't remember where from so I just killed you and your friend.

Great game so far, alot of good fun quests, the graphics look immense and the gameplay is fun to.

So far good ole

from me.

I gotta a 2.6@3.5, 32bit vista with 4sticks of 1g ram, good fast hdd and an 8800gtx.

1280/960 full detail i was getin 40fps-60fps but it got chuggy a fair bit, especially in some graveyards where the lighting got so bright it was nasty, this seemed to screw me..

Tho it only happened a couple times, rest was fine.

Great game, i got up to feed the kid @ bit before 7, checked if aoc was up, got no response thingy, checked forums and seen the "UUUUPPS" thread and tried again, before i know it my friends were on from around the world and it was on for young and old

Gr00my · 19th May 2008, 4:21 AM

Having soo much fun with this

Gabba 19 Assassin on Bloodspire (as with a majority of ppl in this thread im sure)

one gripe..
the FFA PVP can get annoying, when you try and help someone, and end up slashing into em and killing them aswell lol... its funny, but annoying at the same time.

and LOL at being able to camp the res points... tahts juz golden..

I saw you running around too Igninort, i think i did leave ya alone though :P

Servers are down for 2hours for update atm, just hoping their estimations are actually close this time lol...

Been playing for a few hours on Sunday. I was up at 3am waiting for the intial server release, but it got delayed by 3 hrs, then the patcher server shat itself!
So by 6:30am I was patched and in-game with mates on TeamSpeak yabbering in my ear! Good start to the day

The game is rock'n. I am on Bloodspire server as "Shawry", Priest of Mitra.
My laptop (DellM1330) is struggling, which doesnt suprise me, but with everything on LOW im scraping by with 10fps in town and 20-30 fps in Nighttime mode.

A few areas a ripe for ganking, so don't go to White Sands if you are only lvl 5 or so, youll get slaughtered!!
Loving it though, we've got our guild up and running last night and a few guys are saying its a breath of fresh air to get out of Tortage into the quiet areas beyond!

how are you dealing with playing the game? i'm trying to decide atm whether to keep my pre-order or not due to the poor performance of my machine (getting similar to you)

Shawry · 19th May 2008, 8:44 AM

Playing the game is fine for the framerate im getting. I am a bit worried about higher level content, ie large scale pvp and raiding, as that'll bring my laptop down in flames.
The game does look like arse on my settings though, especially compared to mates running everything on HIGH on a 27" monitor

Fortunately I do have options. I have a desktop PC which might (!!) do better which I was going to sell in the next week or so, so I'll load AOC onto that and give it a spin :P

Ignignort · 19th May 2008, 9:12 AM

So... guilds. I suppose no one has one yet

Rawgdawg · 19th May 2008, 9:24 AM

crashes almost every time I quit but it runs perfectly fine apart from 1 texture glitch with female chars where you see there privates.

Game kicks ass though, level 10 bs and level 12 DT going to make the Dt my main im loving that class now that I suck less with it.

weetbix · 19th May 2008, 9:29 AM

Dammit stop writing about how good the game is, still have to wait till the official release for mine

I still havent decided on PVP or PVE. Is the ganking really THAT bad on PVP?

Cheers

iinsom · 19th May 2008, 9:31 AM

eagerly awaiting the retail release, i couldnt get my hands on a preorder copy.

This game looks the goods!
