• • So, I heard this game has a hard learning curve..

  • You should download the large client, even when starting out on a free account.  Lot of issues with installing and patching seem to reate to the small client.

  • If the engine didn't change one bit of the appearance, but simply improved the lag and compatibility issues, it would be a success. That they are adding in a new environment with better water and fauna and shadows is a bonus.  The game will get new players because of it, simple enough.

  • They are not redoing the avatars, they have said repeatedly. And it would cost vastly more than the engine rework they are doing now.  As they are, I much prefer the AO avatars over, say, WoW avatars - more polygons and more emotes.

  • Update from Game Director Means, covering the upcoming Booster pack and the new graphics engine:

    http://www.anarchy-online.com/wsp/anarchy/frontend.cgi?func=publish.show&template=content&func_id=2449&table=CONTENT

    includes a couple of picks from the upcoming playfield and a pic of Means and various chars from Rk1 hanging out on the graphics engine server

    also of note, Enno Rehling is returning to AO. 'nuff said!

    Quote from Means:

    "Our drive to get the new engine up and running got a fresh boost this week when Enno "I Break Stuff" Rehling returned to the team to help us refocus our efforts. Enno was here at the beginning of time when a great deal of the AO source was written and it will be a great help to the rest of the coder team to have him aboard again to help us bring the dream home. We have all been waiting a long time for this and it still gives me goosebumps when I get to see the world we all know so well looking so bright and new."

  • To the original poster:  Game looks fine as it is and is fun to play if you can get over the early learning curve.
