Performance: Don't play this game at peak time, lag is horrible. So sometime after 2am is good for no lag. On a side note, this game did have a lot of PVP potential, but that has been ruined by the non-PVP players fighting to make sure that PVP players don't get any content. I don't even understand why the players pushed so hard to eliminate the part of the game with the most potential.

I was surfing the web today, and i found this on my favorite mmorpg... i dont know this person is... but i dont know where he gets off saying all this crap about a awsome game! He cant find one thing that is good about this game while everyone else that posts great comments about this great game. I only got one thing to say about this dude... I bet he is a everquest players isnt he?

    Both of these apply to the fact that the game is 5 years old, however expansion pack coming soon will update it.

    No one really role plays because the people still playing pretty much know most of the people on the servers because they have been playing for so long.

    Click Attack... Click Attack. It's really Mindless and uneventful.

    Most mmorpgs are "click attack"

    What are people whining about?

    Performance: Don't play this game at peak time, lag is horrible. So sometime after 2am is good for no lag.

    WTF kind of PC are you running this on.  When I played it, at the time I had a 466mhz with 64MB RAM on dial up and it ran without lag.

    On a side note, this game did have a lot of PVP potential, but that has been ruined by the non-PVP players fighting to make sure that PVP players don't get any content. I don't even understand why the players pushed so hard to eliminate the part of the game with the most potential.

    If you really want PvP, play on Darktide, the all PK server.

    Now I don't play AC anymore.  Havent for over 2 years.  But it my second favorite mmorpg of all time (UO being the first).  I just think this post was completely ignorant.  You probably tried the free trial and got pissed because no one would give you free stuff.  You have to remember that this game is going on being close to 6 years old.  If you are new you will be alone a lot because high levels do not hang around lower level content anymore.

    Click attack?

    Well, AC1 had the most innovative combat system out there, and it wasn't too advanced. (Other words i'm saying that combat systems now adays are pathetically primitive. AC1 being the top dog in that area.)

    As for kill level...Uhm...Can somone tell me in one game thats an MMORPG/RPG that you don't do that? image

    Ok...you totally lost me here.

    You are extremely perplexed why someone doesnt like AC1 while you yourself love it and then you turn around and say EQ sucks.

    Do you know you just committed the same error you accused the previous reviewer with?  You got upset because he didnt like a game you do, then turn right around and put down a game many others enjoy playing.

    Everyone has their opinions and thats cool buit this lol

    This thread just wasted 5 minutes of my life...

  • DienekesDienekes Member Posts: 484

    Hmmmm, the fact that you just responded to a post that wasted 5 minutes of your life means those 5 minutes probobly weren't very important.

    As for the review, it sounds like it was written by a non-professional so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I personally liked AC1 and didn't like EQ1 myself. I won't go into reasons but having played AC1 the person who wrote the original review obviously didn't spend much time playing it or went in with a set opinion on it. The fact that they are writing a review on a 5 year old game speaks towards their ignorance.

    Dekron, reread PeachKing's post. The first paragraph he is quoting somebody else. He wasn't the one saying AC sucks and infact is saying AC is the best. The problem is he didn't put the quote in [quote]s so its hard to realize he is quoting somebody.

    I think the fact that AC1 is pretty much always in the top 5 list here on MMORPG.com, speaks highly enough of the game. Especially considering it hasn't had a graphics update in 5 years, has only one expansion, and hasn't been in stores for quite sometime.
