    Seriously though Means, I hope you understood what I was trying to say...I know I over-exaggerated a little, and it was worded pretty harshly, but I in no way was trying to offend you or your team. I think you have done a great job since taking over as GD.

    I am also faced with the reality of the situation though, AO faces some tough competition ahead...Star Wars: The Old Republic, Star Trek Online, Earthrise, Global Agenda, and even FC's own The Secret World, will likely chip away even more (or hell even break off huge chunks) of our population in the coming months/years...and I find it hard to believe there are going to be enough people to keep AO ticking for 5 more. That's all I was trying to say, I hope I am wrong, this was my first MMO, and everytime I try something else, I keep coming back.

    P.S. Oh and someone please fix RK1, it's pooping all over the place right now.

    We had Friday with Means, Friday with Kintaii.

    Because by and large, we don't care about listening to another player ramble. And if we do, we have an entire forum dedicated to such ramblings. Outside of a possible entertainment value when we tear into him in the comments, we get nothing from it. "Friday with..." is for information, not mundane crap.

    Wanna have a "Player Spotlight" like SOE does or something, be my guest. But keep it out of "Friday with....".

    I could have sworn that the post had more info in it when it was 1st written, something about the last date to join being January 4th or 5th or something... anyhow... almost two months since the last possible joining date have passed, and the "Soon™" took over ? Funcom, did your random generator broke ?


    p.s. Why did this get un-sticky'd before the competition ended...

    AoC doesn't even have "the true power of Dx10". It has "Direct X 10 TEST". lol

    DX10 in AoC is severely non-optomized, requiring way more resources than would normally be required in a game with similar graphics. Even sadder is that, outside of "godrays", AoC in DX 9 looks better than AoC in DX10. DX10 foilage for one looks fake as hell.

    Maybe they somehow figured it out in the expansion?

  13. #93
    Part of that reason is DX10 was completely new when AoC came out, and was one of the 1st games showing it off.
    "A whole new place to run around for ages in then die suddenly without warning."

    "I know who coded pet pathing... and when I see him I say "/follow" and I start waling in to walls :P"

    The "Trolls" option is incorrect. The term trolls is not used to describe the gathering of information on the Internet.

    Who's talking about when it was new? I'm talking about that's how it is NOW, as in right this moment. They still advertise themselves as having DX10 when they in reality have a basic hacked-together rough version of DX10.

    Bah why do FC often start competitions but almost as often then forget about it? This is not the first or the second time that FC started a competition and then had to be contacted over and over just to find out what on earth is going on, several months after the competition supposedly ended.

    I got my AoC beta access juuust before beta was over because FC started a competition where one of the prices was beta access and then just kinda.. forgot about it. Those that won item-prizes had to contact FC over and over for months before anything was done

    Now, don't get me wrong. All these competitions are great and I thank for FC hosting them. It's great.

    All I'm saying is that if you start something.. then you should commit to it.
