Runes of Magic: Slim Client Released

Frogster has announced that a new 'slim client' has been released. The new slim client weighs in at about 3.5Gb in size, approximately half the size of the full client.

The vast reduction in the size of the slim client was made possible by compressing some of the detail in the graphical textures and sound files. Aside from these two differences, the game and features in the slim client are identical to those of the full client. Additionally, the slim client of Runes of Magic requires fewer system resources, enabling gamers to experience improved system performance.

Both the slim client and the full client including the current update Patch 3.0.5 are available for download at the Runes of Magic site.

    Excellent initiative from Frogster!

    ...now they need to change the patcher as well and make it more efficient ;-)

    So! I am still not going to play it, or any other game that makes you continuously pay for for space to store stuff...

    its just a poor wow clone, what do you expect?

    Actually, I'd call it one of the best WOW clones out there, better than most P2P ones that have tried.

    Poor wow clone with features in many cases better than wow ;) The irony. To be fair they do lack wow's polish though, but have a better pvp/gvg and rp community.

    "slim" client is epic fail. No changes at all. Still low fps as like as full client

    The Slim Client helped me a lot. Game runs much much better now.
