    Not to mention that some people can't even log on and it's still not quite prime time in the US yet. Lots of bad stuff can still happen. Of course... I hope that won't be the case

    I'm a big ol' fluffy carewolf. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

    Er... haven't the EU servers entirely failed to come up?

    Yes, the performance is ok, but there is still work to do. I have no doubt that Sigil will get it even smoother very soon. The last few days of the beta they took some big steps in the right direction.

    So is there any big difference between the last day of beta and today?  If so, can you descibe the differences in terms of gameplay and performance issues?  Thanks!

    My guess is there keeping the eu servers down. A hole continent joining one server in the evening probally wouldn't go well.

    thank god for Battlestar Galactica. Vanguard open in the background, checking EU servers regularily and just relaxing hehe
  • evilmasterevilmaster Member Posts: 17
    Smooth perhaps as long you dnn't want to play on an EU Server - both down till the beginning...



    Sadly it's the next proof that SOE treats us as second class customers.

    Big time for me. The performance is almost flawless on my machine, whereas even the last day of beta I had some hitching and bad framerates fairly often - it's much less now. Some more fluid animations on ranger anyway....I'm only level 7 so far. But it all is running great so far, with Gulgrethor not coming now or lagging up yet.

    Yes, there is a difference, there is a bit more lag now at launch, but the difference between now and beta is that when i first joined the server now it was alot of people.. in fact i have never seen more then 5-6 people at the same place while playing beta. Now i spawned with 10-15 people standing on the same spot + alot more running around.



    The further away from newbie area i came the better the performance.





    And yes, the animations is better now then in the beta.

    Yes there is a big difference , the game is running smooth my FPS are up a bit,and am not seeing any lag what so ever , even in the noob zone with 35 to 40 other players am impressed big time

    I don't mind really. I saw something like this coming anyway.

    I'll just spend evening checking different classes and starting areas.
  • PerjurePerjure Member UncommonPosts: 250
    I have to say that i am impressed with the pre-release. No lag at all, crisp animations and my FPS is better. All the starting areas I have been to have been well populated with players as well.
  • KarandorKarandor Member Posts: 113
    My FPS has jumped in cities by almost 50% on this version and I get a lot less hitching. My cleric is up to level 9.75 and it's time to get out of the house.



    Very very smooth. Saying "LOL IT ISN"T LAUNCH YET NOOBS" is irrelevant as I think they've done something very smart and have essentially broken their launch in half seperated by 4 days. The servers are having no problems at all even with the tons of people in newbie areas.



    I am extremely impressed by how well they've come together to get this game working very well. My performance is 100-200% better now than when I started beta 5.
  • starman999starman999 Member Posts: 1,232

    Pure genius......

    It really was a great idea to let all the preorder people start early essentially cutting down on the amount of people in the newbie areas when the game officially goes live. It should help to negate the lag issues that normally plague the starting zones when a game releases (yes even WOW lagged like crazy at launch in the newb area)

    Critical thinking is a desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and hatred for every kind of imposture.

    my ass smooth...i cant even jump into the world, once i start vanguard it starts flashing/ blinking to a black screen and the loading screen...this is pure crap, took forever to install/download this game and i cant even play now....it worked the first time i launched but now, once i hit play, its all bugged out...well i guess this is what you should expect from a soe product...
  • swede2swede2 Member Posts: 975
    Did you lose your jedi or what SWGforreva  i feel for you but leave sigil out of it
  • Nikoz78Nikoz78 Member UncommonPosts: 910

  • freethinkerfreethinker Member UncommonPosts: 775

    I've been very pleasantly surprised at the smoothness of the "early access" so far.  There are dozens and dozens of others in the newbie zone with me and it's still running quite well.  No hitches so far :::::crosses fingers:::::.  Back to playing...

    Did it magicaly change from being an EQ2 clone between beta going down and the sparsley populated pre-launch?
  • YuberekYuberek Member Posts: 205
    Are they still using the same animations as in beta ?
