So far AoC very smooth. I know there was some hiccup earlier, but when i got home today around 5pm est, i downloaded a few patches (which went really fast) and went to play. Played for about 8 hours. No bugs, no crashes, no lag, no performance issues of any kind.

I have very avg pc:

8800gt card, AMD 3800X2 proc, 2mb ram. Runs excellent on medium setting.

looking forward to more play tomorrow.

A machine with an 8800 isn't an average machine.

7900 amd3800+ x2 2 gigs average?

8800gt = ~200$. It's pretty easy to get imho.

I enjoy playing it but I still wonder why they made it so linear. Everyones doing the same quests and so there's quite often a fight for the mobs/items to pick up.
That wouldn't be so annyoing if they didnt make quests where you have to pick up 3 items that are on a 20sec respawn timer while 20 to 30 people try to loot faster than you.

That will get better but there's always gonna be a fight for some quests

Tortage is horrible, it only has so many quests and EVERYONE is doing them. After Tortage it opens up a bit. I'm glad I pushed through to 22 and got the hell out today. It will be a long time before I roll an alt lol!

yeah, tortage reminds me of DDO (which is not a pleasant reminder). but keep in mind, tortage was actually designed to be 100% single-player. they only added multiplayer option to it due to player feedback. that's why it feels really small.

tortage is basically the isle of refuge for AoC.

You're on the solo isle till level 22? Wow, sounds like a blast for an MMO.
