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.

[CrimsonRabbit]

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.

the lag mainly and the weapon locks

LAG LAG LAG!!! Even on my newer PC I get so much lag!!! Sailing I look like a flip book!

[Melanie]

The terrible lag!

[AdmiralSavvy]

[XxJennaxX]

The lag.
-_-!

[Katti082]

The lag! Makes me feel like im in a Charlie Chaplin movie...

[methadose]

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.

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):

My interest in this was to just see what everyone else felt. Lag has no doubt gone up and down through out last several updates. Chat annoys me when I go through the sentences and find the word wheel, spike, stud, road, and ridiculous in game words like this are blocking entire sentences. As well as more than like 6 words type thing it gets blocked.

Tech support wastes my time with well you need to send these files with your report. OK there they are, and as I am looking at the same files seeing the cuts in sentences, I get back from live chat well we don't see anything, pff. I am a bit annoyed they go by the 1,2 ,3 system, and those are the only answers they give. We don't see anything. Its spy ware on your computer (somehow your fault). We will send this to be looked at by our staff ( other words good bye we will not be getting in touch with you)

I was interested in the poll to see if others felt the major attention should be in what areas. In a sense I Classify two categories as sub-categories. Lag and chat I have considered the biggest issues myself.
Ship invulnerability, undead, weapon locks more minor issues. In these areas, everyone can do it so its not so much a big advantage to one or a few. As for weapon locks using esc gets ya out of it.

I just wanted to know why the attention was being put to something like the undead bug, or if doll did multiple attacks, when to me there seemed to be such a bigger issue that needed attention.

What I have seen so far in the poll is about what I expected, a bit surprised more hasn't gone to fixing the tech support issue though.

I would work towards walk arounds in these areas, that is what we basically have done. Get a vent site or something you can communicate, list it on your guild site not in game or get the 3 day er. With lacking tech support, this is your best option to getting help and being walked through areas you do not know how to do. Such as updating graphic drivers, where to get net2 or something else you may need, to get the driver.
