Seriously. It's dumb that modern machines still can't run the game well.

Engine sucks. Back in 2004 i remember i could run the game on high perf/balanced, even high quality and shadows on some places and get decent fps, these days my pc is about 10 times faster and the fps is same.

Do people really care this much about how a game looks?

Who cares about shaders if the artwork is so fucking ugly.

We'll just get high quality versions of ugly zones with bad terraforming, ugly armour models with no variety and ugly character models that shouldn't ever have gotten past closed beta.

The game looks totally like another game when you run it on lowest settings compared to HQ. There is no excuse why it still runs like crap.

Not to mention gameplay that could have been better if they instead of hiring graphics designers, hired gameplay designers.

As long as it keeps looking better than I can pretend it's a new game and not the same one I have been playing for the last 3 years...games follow the same human to xyz year conversion that dogs do so it's like 21 or so for me.
