WTF is up with this?

There has to be something wrong when my little 34 warlock can drop a t8 toon in MC to orange. Can warlocks usually do this? just started playing him and i swear she didn't resist anything. I chained and stunned her and she didn't resist once.

My AoC download has 16 hours left on it

Lol, tell me about it. They need to do something about PVP fast because if AoC lives up to the hype Vox is going to be an even bigger ghost town.

Hm... Ahold said something today... that I sadly agree with. I don't think that AoC will live up to what people expect. People complain about lag issues with EQ2 that usually more or less generated from the user-side and not server-side. AoC puts a much bigger strain on systems than EQ2. I feel people will be getting preeeeeetty fuckin pissy about that shit and will come back shortly after the hype is over.

If not, hope those that go enjoy their stay.

And dark... You should know why you got them in the fucking orange, I think you should let me borrow that top bach so I can do the same.

From literally thousands of posts on the subject from months of beta testing I don't see any real complaint about lag issues unless you have a giant pos computer. If you have a 7800 series card or higher and duo core processing you are good to go and graphically it looks better than AoC and doesn't choke the game like eq2 does.

Another indicator that is is pretty damn solid is that just the beta has turned naggy into an almost vox like ghost town since everyones playing it already. Naggy in the past week has been like Vox 3 months ago. Not quite as bad as Vox is now, but if AoC holds even half the eq populations interests, Naggy will be like Vox, Vox will be as dead as Venekor and Venekor will be...shut off?

Difference is between EQ2 and AoC is AoC actually SUPPORTS dual cores AND SLI. Use either on EQ2, you get less performance. Fact. If you don't believe your SLI is 100% wasted on EQ2, open nvidia's control panel, go to program settings, Everquest 2 and see it is set to single GPU. Yay for EQ2 "playing best on nvidia"

The lag saturday when AOC became full pvp was beyond imagining, prolly because of the mass zergin and costant respawns, it was almost impossible to get away from the rezzing points. You couldnt almost leave the fucking docks in the cities cause there were dozens of players there casting pets and spells and buffs and shit.
Once I was able to leave the danm docks to a normal zone I died plenty in the open, I wont deny at the end I was one of the bitches killing ppl at the rez points but the lag was HUGE. Can't tell you how many times I had to restart the fucking computer.

I have a dual core 2gigs and 7950GT Nvidia

Look at all those mobs on her! You obviously had the upperhand.

My twink Obanis could solo monks in their 50s at level 33. I did it all the time, it was funny. If you had Obanis with you Darkphoenixx am sure the two of us could have killed that 74. It is sick that a couple of T4s can kill a T8 and it has been that way for a looooong time.
