Game just rocks now. Load times are down to almost nothing! That helps a lot. The game seems to ahve stoped hitching completely for me and I can run with bloom on with settings set to full and high on everything! I don't know what Funcom did...but with the load times going to merely a couple of seconds now this game will definitely be much more fun to play!
THANK YOU FUNCOM!!!!

good to hear it, makes me happy.
Yeah the game took a complete 180 after this last patch. Guess they weren't just spinning when they said that they had a miracle patch to come. While I still have lower FPS than I would like I am able to pull a passable 20-25 fps on Medium and 30-40 on low. Woot. I played the game for about 3 hours tonight without any problems other than one of my characters getting stuck and /stuck nor my recall would unstick me. Oh well. All in all I 80% happy with the game right now from 20% happy a week ago.
I am actually happy to say that I have the game on preorder.

neuro, wats the spec of ur rig?
My crashes are completely gone. 'sides that I was already running with everything maxed prior to the patch at 40-60 FPS. AoC runs pretty much perfect for me now.
I was running on High with about 40FPS in Tortage before the patch, now its about 45-50FPS, but the game itself looks a lot better for me after the patch. The lighting and fog effects are definitely better now, and the game has the real gritty visual style to it now.
My loading times have reduced drastically as well, about 5 seconds loading Tortage down from about 30 seconds. Small areas like Taverns and caves load almost instantly now.
I was 100% looking forward to this game before the patch, now its like 500% dynamite!

I was there during the launch of AO...Back when the cry was "Funcom, the company that put the FU in fun" There seems to have been a real change from those days. AoC is still in beta and it's not perfect, but it's a lot better.
It says a lot about how cynical I have become. I read they were going to patch and boost performance and I said to myself "Yeah, right. Maybe in 2 or 3 months you will". You earned this one Funcom
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Give a fish a man and he will eat for a month!
truely the best patch ever. my fps went from .5 to 40 no matter what i do i can't drop my fps. it's truely amazing
GREAT PATCH!
Funcom once again delivers,
Gotta love these guys seriously!

No kidding. I'm getting an fps of 116 on high!
Yea...its funny I could all ready run with max settings on everything but no bloom. Load times were killing me though and I had hang-ups when lots of people came into view really fast and crashes and even the occaisional BSoD. Now...nothing. Game runs smooth as silk! I cannot believe the difference. It really was a miracle patch and it did wonders for the game. Those fast load times will make a huge difference in how the game plays now.
Now if they would address a few more issues...the game would be golden!
This game isn't as smooth release as lotro was but its now pretty damn close. I expect it to get some touch ups on stray bugs not far from release. who knows maybe between open beta closing and retail opening the stray bugs like the falling through the ground near the whore house will be fixed up and ready to go.
Well, this certainly was a miracle patch if ever I saw one.. Not expecting the launch to be problemfree, but what MMO can brag about that? So far I've had about the same amount of problems that I had in WOW beta, nothing to write home about.
Well I wasn't able to try the patch because the server are down again for the level 20 boost (I still think a double rollout in a 12 hour window is a weird way of doing things but whatever works).
Looking forward to trying once the servers come back up.
By Crom this is a /bump
mad props to Funcom, they did it. Where are the trolls and all those doomsdayer now ?
They'll be back don't worry!
im really sad I will miss out on aoc release. I havent been in a mmo release for a long time, and it's a really cool feeling being part of the birth of a game!
