Hmm i'm not 100% inpressed with the combat system, i really dont like the chat system although the graphics i am 100% impressed with. The graphics alone wont get me to play the game though.

Although i logged in wow and still stood there with nothing to do :(

lvl 20 Dark Templar

I actually have to say the combat system has really grown on me, though I almost wish they wouldn't have tied the combos to an ability button. Just let you keep chaining them if you know what you want to do as you gain the new combos. Creates a lot of extra clutter when you want to use multiple strengths of the same ability. Would improve the flow of combat as well.

Some confusion too:

-No DX10 at launch

-NA got the exact same version and EU (they both got genital nerfed with a nasty grey thong) - Zee Germans are the unlucky ones that got the neutered version. The US got nipples by Crom!

I love this game. I always have something to do, and the combat system is perfect for me. Not too complex, but a lot more involved than just hitting auto attack and choosing a special ability every once in a while.

So I built a new machine just to play the game

Q6600, 4 gigs ram, 8800 GT 512, Vista prem.

Guess what I find out.

I cant stand MMOS!!!!!!! They are just overwhelming big to me.

haha, oh well at least i got a nice cs source rig. :) I'll just have to wait for left for dead.

Maybe if you want something on a smaller scale look at Guild Wars. You'll still get the social aspect but the game plays out a bit more like a conventional single player game due to the game being partially on rails as well as using instanced zones.

Obviously not what you bought your machine for, but if you want to try an online RPG and the MMORPG's are a bit overbearing for you that may be a good alternative.

That or stick with it for a bit longer and you may warm to it. To really get much out of the game you need to have other people to play with but. I quit WoW after getting borred and not wanting to grind for another 40 - 50 levels to catch up with my friends on the server. had I had ppl I knew and was playing with I'd likely still be on there. This time with conan I'll be starting out with about a dozen mates from my CSS/TF2 clans so I'm optimistic I'll have more fun.

I played guild wars when it first launched and loved it. They took a while to get the first x-pack out though and I got bored. The only thing I was missing was the ultimate armor.

It was a really good game though!

Maybee I should try reading a book again. (seriously)

That is basically my system, except my new videocard has not come yet.

And I have the same problem, most MMO/RPG etc games tend to be too much for me, I like to actually finish a game lol, but I was hoping this one had some better features and and such that would keep me going. That is why I was hoping for an earlier demo for it, might just have to buy it.

I made a flowchart of the zones and levels if you are interested take a look.

No trials and the buddy keys are still locked away until they decide the servers can handle it. Otherwise I'd give you one.

Finally got a friend to sent me an invite (or whatever you call it).

Should be playing it tonight! Then if I like, it's a buy.

Wonder how you got one... I still can't generate one yet.

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
