Just out of curiosity what makes it so bad? I am stuck at work and cant log in till later tonight. Just wondering what to expect.

Seems like this feature hogs much more memory than EQW does, at least I notice more general slowness with the system using it.

DJk_zero · 01-09-2003, 06:08 PM

Also fucks up your system's gamma settings as well as forcing you to reposition the fucking window every time you switch fullscreen > windowed mode. Grade A piece of shit, thankfully eqw is being patched soon.

Burpme · 01-09-2003, 07:07 PM

It took a whole 30 seconds on the test server when it was first announced to see these problems. It is a piece of shit. They are more interested in this crap feature stuf then in fixing the fucking problems.

Bristlebane · 01-09-2003, 07:37 PM

Oddly enough, it seems to be working 100% correctly for me.

ThatGuyThatIAm · 01-09-2003, 07:54 PM

Works fine for me.

I'd like the capability to resize the window, though. I suppose setting your eq resolution lower than your windows resolution would ameliorate that, but I actually enjoy running at incredibly high resolution :\

Grumoor · 01-09-2003, 11:37 PM

Aside from not being able to use two accounts on one machine it works fine for me. I'm pretty optimistic about SoE getting this to work properly with two accounts though. 'Supporting' the option to run two accounts on one machine is bound to make SoE more money than any other enhancement they might be working on and they know it. Yea yea there was EQW, but there's a lot of people that won't use EQW out of fear of being banned (as silly as that is) or they just don't really know what EQW is.
