there is a bug/issue concerning the graphics on high end machines (ie using the high quality settings) regarding the view distance and drawing of textures etc. Should be better after patch (hopefully).

I think for me the reason for skipping is early beta -> totally different game. Did they change dev teams or something??
They tuned down everything that was orcy about orcs, chaosy about chaos and just plain redid a whole slew of things. The rest got cut.. 
I'm just astounded that they got one of the OTHER world largest gaming licenses and skimped out, went the safe route... Sure, its not AOC or WOW 1.5, but it sure is close to DAOC 1.5... was fun, back when, but I'm still hoping for something new and fresh... and like in most MMO's the debacle between ranged and CC classes is as nutty as ever... mezz's/stuns/snares/silencing gets old after a few games with it, its been done allready.
Who knows though, it's not BAD, but its just not enough freshness about it either for me.. I guess I hop on the train if enough of old friends start playing.. But I aint doing it for the game itself..

Yeah, I'm also going to play on a Open RVR server! I love to just encounter people out in the world and fight em randomly, make enemies etc. Battlegrounds and rvr areas just aint enough for me. 
My preorder also includes headstart access, however, the store haven't gotten the codes yet, but they said they were supposed to have had them by now. They told me they're going to call and check what's up, hopefully, they'll have the codes by Monday. And I also hope to god GOA doesn't fuck it up. Cause I'll be free from work for next week, thanks to my odd schedule, perfect for Warhammer Online.
Anyone know of any other stores or places that haven't received their headstart codes yet? |
I just checked my mailbox, an my Early access and bonus code has just come, i ordered from Play.com
Open RvR it is then. |

Nevermind, it fucking costs 469 SEK for digital download and 478 SEK for me to order the boxed version. They must be joking?

Hoping there are some noticeable graphic changes, but to be honest, the only two things I really want feel is needed for me to appreciate the game as a whole, is:
* To be given a choice of either having the Smart cam enabled, or disabled. The "Smart cam" is when the camera always reverts back to it's default place, right behind you, as soon as you let go of your mousebutton. This is HIGHLY irritating for me as a shaman...
When I heal and dps, I need to always see everything, and I'm almost always being chased by people, so I need to be able to run, and look behind me, without the camera reverting back every damn time. It's a real hassle.
* To have the blurring removed (as a video option). There's a blurring that occurs on everything that isn't close to you, textures and everything looks great, as long as they are in the close vicinity. But they look boring, flat and blurred from a distance. Also, I'd like to disable the "sluggy movement" that happens to players who aren't in a close vicinity as well. It also looks horrible.
I understand the reason for those two to exist, this being a RVR game with very many players on the screen all the time, but still, I'd like for us with really high end machines to actually take advantage of them. There's no reason for blurring or sluggish movement, let us disable them, if it lags for us, alright, if it doesn't yey for us. What does it matter for them?
They have been talking about giving us with mid to high range machines graphical buffs, I hope at least one of these are what they're talking about.
--
Obviously, graphics aint everything, and for me, these aren't that vital, but they're still annoying. If they don't come, I won't stop playing, and I'll most definitely have loads of fun, but I'll be a tad sad at least.
Also, as soon as the servers come up, I'll also be getting scavenging, forgot all about it. Thanks for the reminders. |
I like your idea about the smart cam. i hope all you guys are submitting these suggestions. They seem really good at reading suggestions and actually implementing the one's they think sound good.

Yeah. i remember you from several pages back:
"I ain't going to touch this for atleast 6 months..
The beta is horrible, quests are still bugged out of their minds, and they haven't fixed anything since last year!"
Now go away.
