So I need some tips on an extremely active server with some proper wait times

It'll cost you. Pick one with a queue but be prepared to wait when you want to get in though.

We're starting to get 10+ T4 scenarios a day now on Eight Peaks. Battles are often closely fought between the two sides as well and most of us are coming out with a quarter of our RR bar full (I'm RR22) and 13k XP.

The price we pay for this is a 700 person queue! :|

You do need to find some friends though. 4 people can change the outcome of a scenario. But if you PUG it you will likely loose because people seem to have the combined IQ of a goldfish.

you give them too much credit

if i had fraps and recorded the scenarios i did tonite, you would lose a lot of faith in the human race

I have no idea what you're talking about, almost every group I'm in knows what they're doing. I have faith in the human race.

Me too. They're doing an excellent job of fixing any bugs (far better than AoC was doing at launch) and the game is just so fun.

My main is a Shadow Warrior. While I generally like being a melee DPS class, I'm having the most fun with this one.

Oh, and they have definitely fixed the lag-out issues I was having, and it's not just a temporary thing.

It looks like I'll be switching over full time from WoW :yes:

The only thing I ever heard from AoC was that GM that had cybersex with someone...really shows class XD

Melee DPS is the thing...Myself is a Witch Elf, alright and fun class(except that my character looks like a ######), hit Rank 20 yesterday and getting my bum towards 21.

Its fun, and different from WoW in some ways. =)....

Scenarios are fun too..not really gotten much into them

Can you guys post some of your specs that you are running the game on? I am going to be building a new computer end of year so I can truly enjoy the game (stopped playing recently because the lag really ruins the game) and want to see what specs work :)

Thanks

Running it at 1360x768 on max settings with partial lag, always turn off the heavy memory using processes before I play it.

I REALLY wish they would improve the models for the elves, both realms. The way the males run makes me delete the toon after mere minutes. And I thought the Blood Elves in WoW were gay.

Loving the game though, most fun I've had in an MMO in years. Just wish I could pick one class to stick with...so many incredible options to choose from.

I totally agree!

Really want to play a Shadow Warrior but the animations / models just look like pure crap. Plus they need to add some proper hair for the males, from behind they look like women, which is also contributed by their bodies looking like a copy & paste from the female bodies with "Size +2".

Though most classes seem to bore me,

16 Zealot

16 Warrior-Priest

15 Chosen

14 Witch-Hunter

9 Marauder

6 Black Orc ( Current )

Every time I hit the Tier 2 Battlegrounds everything just grinds to a halt, the insane waits times and win rate goes belly up. I hope the ability to join all battlegrounds from where you stand will make the Black Orc more enjoyable, though its annoying to be more dead than alive due to the fact Destruction seems to lack healers big time. Annoying the Order healers are much more attractive to play.

Also, why are chat channels so dead?!? Also, a lot of people in game come off as elitists; the PvPers from WoW (no offense if anyone here is a PvPer from WoW, but most of them are asshats). Some things really put me off from this game. I got upto level 24 and it has been so quiet ever since I go into Tier 2. Scenarios have long wait times, fewer people are around, and the game just doesn't seem that fun anymore.

It was boring for me until I joined a guild; and it is true that NOBODY uses the area channels, unfortunately :/

I know what you mean. I made a female Shadow Warrior simply because a male would have looked like a female anyway :laugh:

That, and I was running out of cool-sounding male names to use (and the random name generator tends to have names I can't even pronounce).

Mythic is apparently in the process of taking down suggestions from the player base on what they want implimented in the chat system. Most people want a zone-wide chat, much like what is in WoW, instead of being limited to the little sub-zones as it is now.

Also, what servers are you guys playing on? I've been bouncing around a bit, trying to find one that is active, yet not too terribly overpopulated.

also theres the fact that trial accounts give infinite accounts to gold spammers.

im not against them, i just prefer when they give the actual game players the keys for trials instead, if you can give 5 or so trials in a month that would be preferred.

oh god

i can't believe the amount of gold spamming i get

i've stopped playing WAR all together till they fix the ignore list and people figure out how to do the BGs (or scenarios whatever they're called in this game)

i thought this was going to hold me over till WotLK but i was wrong

the UI interface is also terrible imo

can't even click on a players name in the chat window to send them a tell..... :|

WAR WOW (spaces don't show....)

Same game amirite? Not doing everything Blizzard did makes the game fail amirite?

Two different games....I don't know why people keep comparing them. Go at it at a different angle instead of...a game to keep me occupied until Wotlk, you're bound to hate it with that kind of an attitude.

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
