Age of Conan: New game engine! Dreamworld 2.1 Update!

All I can say is HOLY FPS CONAN! Dx10 runs better and faster than Dx9 but don't let that bother you because both of them run like a dream "No pun intended"!

Now if only Funcom had this when they launched. It might have saved the game by itself. IMO it's to little to late. They would have to push alot of money into publicity to even think of getting 1/4th of the people back. Funcom is finishing the new game engine and working on balance in PvP Minigames as well as more content! I give it another year and this game will be 110% ready for launch... Gotta love payed beta's...

not to mention that the mage combatsystem is exactly like in other mmo's (auto target 1,2,3). so the new and fresh combosystem is only for melees which makes the game even more imbalanced. Or the shining, storytelling in Tortage and the smash in your face when you get outside of it and it becomes a normal mmo.

I really love the basic melee combat system and nothing more. the developers should have focused on game mechanics instead of shiny graphics.

graphics ++

comosystem and hitbox ++

but the servers feel empty, the out of memory bug is there since the beginning of the game, the rediculous vast amount of killpoints you need to get one! pvp set. (worse than any asia-grinder) the lag of pvp content and rewards that motivates you. the keepfight lags / crashes. the absolute retarded idea to seperate mana and stamina which made melee (stamina = sprint & kombos) vs. mage (stamina = sprint, mana = kombo) fights completely imbalanced. esf. ... ...

@Flicker455 ... lets put all gameplay issues aside for a second...

Graphics:

Good for an MMO, but..

These is a great "stiffness" in almost all areas, its hard to describe, it the edges are too sharp on both terrain and on objects, characters basically glide on terrain, it doesnt feel natural..

Rivers/waterfalls look like shit.

Textures are way too low res and lack any way of "fluid animation" (you know what i mean, shifting texture sets on the same tile, variable bump mapping/tessel etc..)

[Flicker455]

What planet are you on? How can possibly find this to be bad!? The new engine is bloody brilliant, stop spouting this nonsense, you've obviously lost touch.

[Flicker455]

@archolon And it runs it this well? That's more or less the exact same specs I've got! Damn I'm downloading this as we speak!!

@draker696 we are many that love the game :)
