God made women because mens brains are broken.

So I got an OB key to see what it was like myself to compare it with how CB runs and to be honest I don't see all that much difference.    I used fraps and TS at the same time running in the background and recorded some game play.   Res is 1680x1050 with everything turned to high(no bloom). 

The AoC Video

Sorry if this version is a little small.  I'll upload it to AoCVault to display a larger version.

I like the game.   Some things I really wish Funcom would have done differently...can't talk about it right now.   Will discuss it later after the NDA drops.  Will I be getting it at launch?  No.   Will I play it ever.   Probably.   Will wait 6 months to a year.

I believe she's running a true monster rig.   But, the video is among the best I've seen.    I can't wait to hear your thoughts and reasons for the 6month(atleast) wait to purchase the game.

* I do not need to know how to make a better game than you. I just need to know how to cancel my subscription. -Antarious(a slight misquote but the sentiment remains)

Insert Quote Here

Graphics are nice, but you had them on high, that's about it for me...the combat looks boring, but it does in alot of games, maybe it's more fun playing it. I wouldn't know yet. Especially for a ranged class though...looks like it's gonna be kind of boring. The funniest thing is how the mobs can move their legs and feet around when they're swinging and attacking. Almost like their feet never make contact with the ground. Hehe, I'm so picky.

nice vid, do you think the reqs are similar to vanguard? just hoping this game will run "ok" on low/med settings on my old pc, or my wife is going to be pissed. it does run vanguard on "balanced" around 30-40fps.

I think everyones system is different.  I think it all depends on the sytem and how you have it configured.  Someone may have a system like mine and AoC runs poorly - we saw this in Vanguard.   So I am not going to say if your gaming rig will work or will not work.   Sorry.  :(
