What would you like to see fixed most?
 
Ok going to try to get a poll going again, see if I get it working.

As for the poll, nothing annoys me more than chat not working most the time, and having to write like three word sentances half the time.

I voted for lag...but I'm sure it's my computer's fault...or is this an issue with a lot of people? I've got quite used to it now though. I wonder how much I'd love the game if it ran smooth all the time.

The lag. It drives me nuts. I just bought a new computer last week, and like a true nerd, I made sure it was good for gaming (4 gigs of ram, high end video card). Guess what? The game still lags a lot of the times. I think it lags as much as it did on my older computer.

Well got it to work, even though I did a typo. For the graphics I have got a few people working better with a couple things. First go to the community site from the start up window, and under help look up your video driver for a update.

I will list this since alot of people have no idea the path and way to do this, it worked on our guild site anyways.

Go to start on your computer. Setting-control panel-display-setting-advanced-troubleshoot.

This is where the Hardware acceleration is located, turn in down a notch or two. Under enable write combining turn it off.

Depending on each individual's computer may adjust acceleration less or more, but should help out with getting cut screens and some of the lag.

Everyone always talks about lag. I don't understand, I run my graphics maxed out on Abassa server and never have any lag. Why is that? I just dont get why everyone lags. Are u guys shutting everything down prior to starting the game? Are you running a broadband connection? Ever try turning ur graphics all the way down?

I have never had any lag at all, not even on boss battle which I hear is the worst for it.

If my system info and settings helps to settle anyones lag issues, Ill gladly post them.

I voted for the graphics(/lag). Nearly all the buildings have conflicting textures and way to many faces. Plus, many of the enemies (mostly soldiers) tend to run right by gliding along the ground. And just a little bit ago i was being chased by some soldier that managed to become completely invisible.:psmiley27:

Wow, rub it in why dont you. What kind of PC are you running off of? 12 GB of ram with a 5ghz Alianware gaming PC? Do you work for Nasa?

Currently my machine at home is:

Core2 Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz
8GB PC2 800 DDR2 RAM
GeForce 8600GT
20" Dell Monitor doing 1680x1050
Windows XP 64-bit

What's kinda messed up is that my laptop (a Lenovo T61p) performs (and, strangely enough LOOKS) gob-smackingly better.

Core2 Duo T9300 2.5Ghz
4GB RAM (Limited to 3GB)
Quadro FX 570M (Essentially the same core as the 8600GT)
WUXGA screen doing 1920x1200
Windows XP 32-bit

So, we have two machine with nearly identical core clockings (and POTCO doesn't use multiple cores) but more cache on the laptop, and identical graphics cores (though clocking may be different)

Here's a screenie off the laptop (click for the full-size one):

I know Im posting this in the wrong area - but wouldn't you love to see an update where you can turn off the ability to TP to you at times?

Its distracting when you are in a battle, and someone TPs without askin! (No offence to anyone)
But... sometimes it would be nice to play without it! I never mind if people ask me, but sometimes newer people I've helped TP to me at bad times - for them. LOL

I was on the 'Undead Brigand' mission, and had a new lvl 5 TP to me during. Um.. got killed.
Hasn't TPd to me since, but I could've prevented it with a 'not available' option!
