On the AoC boards you get these random people who make these threads by people you never hear from again. You never see that in the mainstream games--it's extremely suspect to viral marketing. I like to think people see through it.
I like to think that Funcom employees have metallic female voices and keep repeating:
"Have some Cake!!"
I am glad Blackwell99 is here to tell me that the cake is a lie!! ;-) Now lets discuss who killed JFK!

To be honest i don't give a shit what people like Rhazmuzz thinks. His experience is not mine so why would i take any notice? I've been playing bug free and smooth for the last couple of months, Funcom have sorted all the initial lag problems. I'm enjoying playing, even on an average spec machine. Why don't these people just fuck off and play another game? What's this crap about the cake being a lie too, tastes pretty good to me.
Well as for the game being a buggy mess i can't really comment on that cuz i didn't try the game yet but, as a starter it doesn't look good....as two days ago i followed the white mammoth ad to the website to give this game a try, as i heard that the game is getting better and better by the day, i got exited and bought the damned thing off their web site and started to download the 13GB game just to find that the official download er is bugged and keeps giving errors at a certain point, so i tried asking over the official forums for a solution just to find out that im not the only one with the problem and luckily found a torrent to the damned thing, after the download i find that there is still a 2.8 gb patch to download....and guess what!!! the only way to download the patch is through a very, extremely slow patcher that also happens to stop downloading at a certain point......anyway i finally managed to get the game to start just to find out that the account is frozen for some god only knows what reason it is, although the damned web site says the account is open AND PLAYABLE!!!! and thats my experience with this thing...i wont call it a game......
forgive my bad grammar
If you have a problem you should contact the support.
Always best to have the DVDs, i bought my from EB games and i never had this problem

If some asshole has crappy internet connection doesnt mean that AoC is buggy. Truth is, that I didnt play today but for last weeks I havent single crash. Our guild killed every raid boss except last one and even if it could use some tweaks they are all killable. I have a few disconnects (no more than 5 for that 3 weeks) and I allways can connect back in less then 10seconds. So if its not your probles, dont post bullshits here!
I never have problems with lagg or disconnects, i had them a couple of months ago. But now the game runs perfect for me. Well i had 1 disconnect 4 days ago.
Maybe im lucky ? i have a pretty good comp not a uber comp like some people have but its pretty good and i have 100mb internet connection.
And yes, from my experience and from what i heard from people (that plays the game) all Raid bosses are killable and they work good, but ofc as you say they could use some tweaks.
There are always some people that have problems with performence, gameplay etc on all mmo's i ever played. mmo's are pretty complex.

Came back in Dec, its is a totally revamped game. I have not experienced any of the OP issues. My connection is as good as WoW or LoTRO. Game is solid now, can't wait for the itemization changes. This is one of the few MMO's with a future. Rants like this don't work in games or RL...
While the post quoted may or may not have deserved to be locked it seems that AOC forums still suffer from the illnesss known as volunteer mods. I went over there looking the other day and read a few locked threads that werent rants and had reasonable questions and complaints and yet were locked, I guess they still havent learned

Or they quit after their first month like so many others have ......
And come back again.
I must have missed the news about the 700,000-800,000 ex-players returning, nevermind I couldn't have, AA and FC woulda spammed the entire intra-webz 4x over if any signifigant number had re-subbed. We certainly would have had something official, not 'Look at X-Fires!! Look!, Aw C'Mon Please Look!'
For not being "CONSTRUCTIVE" enough? I'm sorry what are you reading? "Thread closed : excessive ranting" and he has a HUGE point, the guy was obviously pissed off. For you to think that actually had some kind of constructive value to it though.........
I think the game runs fine, I will admit yesterday there was a little bit of lagg, and I've DC once! To write something like that is just utterly stupid. The game does still have bugs, and I don't see them as big ones, at all. All games have bugs, and will do after years of development.
Not sure what his problem is. I'm a new AoC player (a little over a week) and it runs flawflessly for me. I don't get stuck, no weird artifacts on the screen, etc..
I have been playing since early access at launch, and while I did find some bugs early, I never experienced the problems so many complained about at the very beginning. And as for the game being a buggy mess now?...so far from the truth. I dont have a power machine, but it all seems to run fine for me, and in fact, I would say the game is ahead of the curve now compared to many other MMO's after their first 6 months. Honeslty, I dont know what people are talking about unless its the viral marketing that seems to be running so rampant nowadays.
