yeah works now...

anyway I hear our server (azariel) won't go down until the 18th so we get two more days to play

Tred · 04-15-2009, 10:08 PM

I saw that. Would it still be possible to test the release on one of the other regions? How would that work?

I'm really enjoying this game more and more. WoW has been fun and Ulduar is gonna be a challenge, but I think this is the kind of game I've been trying to get into.

I wouldn't recommend it. The first 2 days I played I was on the Azariel server looking for some of the people from foh forums. The queues were 3+ hours I kid you not, and there were zero English names.

After the second day of not finding anyone from here I got suspicious and thought that maybe somehow I ended up in the wrong region or something. So I tried all of the regions and sure enough I was on the wrong Azariel.

The ping was about the same but the queues combined with a complete lack of any English (or Latin based languages) made it a chore even though it seemed like folks were trying to be polite.

Is there a way to check ping times? Or are you just going off spell cast lag?

Is the game gorgeous like those screenshots in motion guys?

Looks cool as GW back in 2005.

If only GW had a cool loot system - seems like something fun for Q4 tho.

Yeah, play on max with no lag except a little stuttering in the main city.

I keep getting a gameguard error whenever I try to log in (says like GameGuard error:360 or something), hope it fixes itself..

if you pick another region then you will start to download the patch... So I assume you'll have to start the payment process if you do that

How "crappy"?

Lost Ranger · 04-16-2009, 03:41 PM

The game is simply beautiful and its best feature so far is the FPS. It is flawless. It is really awesome seeing a game that breath taking run so smooth. Shows just how shitty a job some other companies did. Lesser graphics and 1/4 the FPS.

I know this isn't directed at me...

My specs: Q6600, GTX260, 8gigs mem, Vista 64, 1080p res. EVERYTHING maxxed. 75+ frames. 1st zone into city, I dipped to the 20's. (mind you there are so many people at zone in you can't see anything) Once that settled after a couple secs, I shot back to 70+ frames.

This is by MILES the best coded MMO, as far as graphics go. That alone will have me at least giving them a go round come NA release.

Zindan · 04-16-2009, 05:03 PM

Just for reference, my system specs are: 2.1ghz core 2 duo, 8800 GTS (newer chip), Vista 64. Run everything on max (except Shaders, makes ground texture blending look like fog on the ground, run it one notch down from max and it looks perfect), and I get 60+ fps.
