Don't listen to the haters (who usually complain because their comps simply can't handle it)

  I am running an upper-mid-level machine and have ZERO issues (other than seldom crashes). Oh and on my second screen, I am streaming TV shows from NBC.com on Firefox.
  My rig:
  - Intel C2D @ 2.4ghz
  - Nvidia Geforce 8800GTS 640mb (EVGA SSC)
  - 4 gb (3 recognized) of Corsair XMS2 memory timed at 5-5-5-12
  - Vista 32 Ultimate
  ---
  On high with 4x AA and some other notches manually cranked up a little bit I have this game running at a completely stable 30FPS with seldom (and largely unnoticeable) drops with pretty fast (and painless) loading. It's quite a departure from what I remember in Closed Beta even 3 weeks ago). Again, I do get crashes, maybe 2 within a few hours - and 90% of the time they are just C2D. This is more than acceptable for a fresh MMO.
  Again, it's sad to see how many fuming with rage simply because their computers can't handle the game. I don't have any special machine and simply don't experience these issues. And I'm having a great time with the game - which by the way is pretty beautiful (infact, surprisingly beautiful).
  

  
  
  I hate on Aoc and my computer can handle it. and most people hate on it beacuse is a PoS.

  Or perhaps they don't realize that just because they don't like a game (or certain aspects) it doesn't make it bad? And yeah, countless people hate on the game because they don't have the machines to run it and use that as a platform to pick apart everything else. And in other cases, people find one thing they don' t like (usually something different from their last favorite MMO) and use it to shred it to bit?

  I'm glad I have an open mind towards MMOs and games in general. I'd rather be having fun then sitting and pouting because it's not a replica of their favorite MMO.
