I"m interested in seeing what combat looks like. All this video showed was a guy chopping down a bunch of people with one hit. Does anyone know if they've released anything yet showing an actual fight?
Aside from that any criticism onto AoC animations and faces from someone playing Vanguard (Top notch in this department) cannot be taken seriously, really…
Oh and fear not DeaconX you’ll be able to build a fitted or slender character to suit your tastes.
In one of the movie interviews, the developer *does* talk about Raiding. Also about that players can focus on a more "political" part, but he didnt specify so we'll see...
Also, that there are graphical glitches is understandable.. They didnt postpone it for nothing. I myself think that a big part of it is also about optimizing the DX10 part, as they have only implemented that rather recent.
I myself won't trust a MMORPG that isn't delayed at least once after it's in closed beta. I've seen enough mmo's ruined by buggy released which caused a very rough start.
That's one of the things you will have to give WoW and Blizzard credit for, they put some quality standards out there when they released WoW.
Edit: for the person who said he wanted to create "himself" as his character looks, as far as Ive understood it from reading/watching interviews, there is a really large diversity on what you can create. An old skinny geezer or a fat guy with a beer belly are two possible options if I remember correctly. ^^

Not quite I'm afraid, there is massive amounts of customization, but a beer belly won't be possible. Its for the sake of immersion, how the fricking hell can a person with a pot belly survive in such a violent world, unless someone else fights for him/her. Moderate amounts of excessive fat is believable, but only up to a point.
Not to mention, getting strapped to an oar in a galley does wonders for fat loss...
No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. Hemingway

Some pvp (kind of ‘destroy your bases’) beta footage posted some time ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEndk3fElu4

I read a concern of someone who posted earlier.

I said that from memory so I might be off. The three different races will have different kinds of possible builds/looks iirc though right?
