    A couple of things I see wrong with these changes is:

    1) Just because I am not the class that is currently playing in the scenario doesn't mean I don't have a need for the drop. Could be for an alt or could be needed for tailsman making.

    2) Was in a scenario that had a AFK plaer in it. Player wasn't in the spawn area. Some of these players will just move from the spawn point to a safe spot. Most will probably have a "tool" that will allow them to do that so they can be grinding AFK.

    Otherwise, Looks good.

    P.S.:  also ran into a problem last night while playing. I got stuck in the fire pit at the spawn point. since I was stuck, will I also get hosed for the XP and RR that I did earn?

    Note: Using "/stuck " throws you out of the scenario.

    
     

    1) Actually that means exactly that. If you need something, that means your character can use it and its better then the one you currently own. If you need stuff for your alt or for DE, that is always a greed roll.  

    Othervise everyone can claim they have an alt or a DE and equipment never ends with the people who actually need it to improve their gameplay on the char they are playing. That is basic MMO etiquete since they invented the /roll

• • Blank after server selection. Help please

  • That is one of the weirdest bugs I ever encountered.

    What you need to do, is you need to reset your regional options (control panel -> regional and language options) to default UK or US depending where you bought the game.

    there was alot of people having that problem. I still can't figure out how the regional settings can prevent the engine to render things ... go figure :P

    who cares, this game isnt better than AoC, it just has more fanbois at the moment.

    The flamewar for this game comes soon, do you think i am the only one that found out what bullcrap Mythic sold to us ?

    I don't know where you took that, but the difference from AOC for example is that Mythic delivered stuff they promissed and did not cheat people, which was the major reason for AOC failure. Since you are taking the AoC example - AoC promissed one, delivered something else and that in a highly unfinished state. WAR delivered what it promissed, mostly in the state they promissed so if there are any complaints, they are not even closely in the same league as AOC, and that will show in the numbers.

    You might not like how the game looks and works, but that is only your own problem that you did not read tons of information, available well before the launch, before you decided to make a purchase and thus, you have zero right to come complain. Mythic did not sell you any bullcrap - it is obviously you who did an unimformed purchase.

    I don't know..is it just me..WoW is in a different league here...don't put them side by side. As before, not talking about plain simple cartoon characters, its all the animation, the way they interact with the world, how they look when preforming actions on other players..the PvE monsters the same, static, uninteresting..it just seems cheap, shody, basic.

    Maybe they are rose tinted specs..but i am still pretty sure my SNES did have better graphics.

     

    I agree there, but its not just war. I like how war looks, I like how lotro looks. I absolutely loved the look of AOC, however none of those games come even close to the fluidity of the nimation WoW has ... after playing Wow, all other games seem so stiff to me. I get used to it, and not notice it after a while, but hats off to wow in that department.

    I agree on that gameplay and gameflow, (no stuttdering graphics or lag) is more important than flashy graphics. but they can work pretty well hand in hand if you balance them. But now both of them are poor sadly. But hopefully it will get fixed, on both ends. If they just can get rid of the memory leaks. Im using cement atm to try to patch all the mem leaks, my flat looks like a parkinglot after covering all holes I could find.

    
     

    They probably did balance it well. It isn't balanced for the high end, it is balanced so that it can run well on a mid end gaming rig. Optimizing graphics for the high end machines is automaticaly making a game that only a certain group of people can enjoy, thus making it niche right from a start.

    One of the greatest comercial moves WOW did, is making their graphics engine be able to run on a toaster, plus making their graphics almost timeless. In 5 years AOC will be probably hard to look at, while wow will stil be ... well ... wow.

    Probably the only thing bad I would say about WARs graphics is that the ground textures up close look rather low-res, bland and lack depth ... other than that, the buildings look awesome, characters look awesome within their distinct warhammer style limitations. Ofc I didn't see alot of them zet so I might be wrong.
