Thx |

Maybe in 2010 when computers can handle it. |

very good point...i certainly know my current PC could not handle 2 sessions BUT i'd like to think it's at least possible. I've already put the order in for a CRAY...
* EDIT* i was mistaken about the CRAY it no longer is the fastest. Apparently i should be looking at these from IBM:
I'm assuming the first one could handle 2 sessions. |

Nope haven't tried but I doubt it's out of the realm of possibility. Would be interesting to see what kind of FPS one could get though. |

Honesty is the best policy, but insanity is a better defense. |
I remember the open beta client telling me that I could run separate instances of AoC as long as they were not launched from the same directory, it is probably the same for retail. If you machine can handle it is a whole different story... Good luck. :) |

Dual/Quad core and a 8800GT and up can. I set 1 core to each client and when i alt tab to the other window, it stops rendering the 1 I alt-tabbed from. KILLS your video memory and RAM though. |

If ignorance were bliss, the world would be a *much* happier place. |
Aside from the technical difficulties, you can't macro or script in the game (as far as I know) and you have to aim and you have to actually hit the buttons to do each attack and if you want to do more than minimal damage/healing, you have to hit the buttons at the right time and in the right order...so, what would be the point? |
