Tried this again!

Postby UKSpyder » Sun Feb 21, 2010 2:19 pm

Signed up for this again, and it's bloody great!

Loads of high end stuff now, loads of guilds fighting it out in pvp etc.
still love the fighting tactics.
Graphics are the best of any MMO, and have been for ages (supports DX10 now).

Got my Necromancer up to level 68 so far, 80 is top limit, may keep going & see if I can get up there :)

I had a go when they were offering a 'come back free for 14 days' trial, but when I went in there was hardly anyone around.

I just upgraded my 8800 GT to a GTX 260 yesterday and reactivated AoC and my god... what a lovely game. I'm very excited as the reason I quit playing initially was because I just couldn't take the slide show anymore. Now, I'm running between 35-50 fps at high detail (DX9... DX10 appears to suck).

I didn't see a shortage of players while I was on last night. They've consolidated the servers down to four, but there are still about 10-15k on concurrently across those servers.

I think I'm going to give this ago again. To be honest when I first played it I had other distractions and probably didn't give it a fair crack of the whip. What servers are you guys playing on?

Dont think so Rossi, you could try logging in to your account on their website & see if they have a downloadable client there.

If not you will have to start with the disc then let it update I'm afraid.

If you log into your account you get a download option. To be honest it didn't take long to DL :)

I've been playing this again for a bit now, quite enjoying it too.

Bought the expansion as well, seen a bit of the lowbie area but most is for lvl 80s.

Playing on Crom.

No but I will. I had some stability issues last night which was strange. Anyway I'm downloading the high textures and the maps now (I found this when I opened up game browser and going into options and clicking the hi texture options etc) however it's another 16Gb download I'll leave running through the day :)

I'm just letting my weekly free levels build up while I play RDR and Startrek Online. My Necro will be 80 in no time and then I'll explore the Expansion.

I might be on later tonight. Need to pop out and do a few things but should be on around 7.30pm ish :)

I'm sure the Halibuts won't mind but I suggest we meet up on their TS server :)
