• • LoTR best grahics in MMO's....not a well known fact.

  • I liked AoC's graphics and animations and avatars. I did not like the crap performance and the fact when playing I felt like a rat in a tightly  constrained maze. Oh and one thing LoTRO has all over AoC and that is a good population, not to mention so much content you will never ever run out of things to do. Turbines customer servce is the best alos, and Funcoms is even worse than SOE's at it's worst. All in all Lotro beats the crap out of AOC unless your main concern in a game is looking at pixilated nudity.

    Quite frankly I could give a rats arse what my avatar looks like since all I ever see of him is his rear when I am playing.

    Yeah, it's great when you are new, there are a lot of free trial players. But once you hit the lone lands and north downs, it becomes a ghost town. 1-2 players in your area if you are lucky.

     

    it does not become a "ghost town" in 20's a nd 30's. I just finished leveling a alt and had no problems in my 20's and 30's. I had no problem finding PUG's in those areas. I even saw quite a few people in the Trollshaws which has always been the least populated area in game efven at release.

     I will enjoy the beautiful (and ofc fun-to-play) Lotro. I suggest that you try that game out.

     

    You lost me on that sentence...

    Broken AoC > LOTRO

    PS: I was also somewhat sheepish, but I wanted Funcom to know what they WERE doing did not deserve my money. Now with Gaute replaced, I feel Craig deserves more support as he fixed AO, and he can pull AoC out of the mess as well. I am resubscribed.

    And I am having fun with my wife who thinks it is awesome fun! (she does like to get naked a lot though...so she must have ulterior motives...hehe)

    yeah that is why AoC is having server merges and has now dropped below Lineage II on Xfire. It's within 1700 hours of being below SWG even. Went  from 97,000 logged hours at release to less than 5 K in just a couple of months

     oh and by the way . It's not exactly like anyone is going to see your wife, even virtually, since I am sure that you 2 are probably the only ones on your server.

    So what are you doing in WAR, a game which 60% of the players will leave in 6 weeks?

     

    looking at their XFire figures they are holding pretty steady and have been since launch peak. By this time in it's life cycle AoC was well into a nosedive. For what it is worth I could not stand WoWHammer myself, did not make it six hours in the game let alone six weeks, but that is just me. Apparently a lot of people like it so good for them and Mythic I say.
