Servers are full of people coming back. I wish they would just go play Guildwars2. I don't like farming mobs and have to compete with 2 or 3 other solo players farming my secret wisent spawn.
Never trust a screenshot or a youtube video without a version stamp!

there are 2 types of mmo, imitators and innovaters.
Especially when these "hotfixes" does nothing to improve the horrible perfomance issues. I've been crashing constantly since I made my trial account - even with settings/resoultion at absolute minimum I can't even log in 9 times out of 10. If I manage to log on I usually crash within 10 minutes.
Pathetic.
havent crashed once yet. game runs fine for me with high fps

I also have not crashed yet, which is somewhat surprising, in that I'm using the new 64-bit version with DX10 and on max settings. I thought the new version of the client would have some issues, but so far, it's been flawless for me, and the game is very smooth and fast.
Hell hath no fury like an MMORPG player scorned.
Must be on my end then... :P
I've got a pretty old system but I've always managed to run MO on medium settings in the past. And even with lowest possible settings I should at least be able to log in, albeit with low fps.
This does not sound like a performance issue at all, more like a compatibility problem.Did you try messing around with drivers and all the software jazz that is needed for MO to run correctly (don't remember now... .NET and phisix? maybe something else?)? Also changing the dx you are using.Also- I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a corrupt client.You can never know with MO.
It all depends on the game, my friend. ; ) Give me some credit for at least attempting to give MO a shot again, will you?
I did write a mini-review of my first Awakening experience in another thread, and it's not all negative tbh. As a matter of fact I think Awakening could be a really good thing for MO, provided they manage to sort out all the technical issues. If only I could log on and try it out some more...
@ realnaste
Don't remember any of the special tweaking required to run MO, afaik I didn't do anything special last time I tried it, besides lowering the settings a bit.
I think it's a step forward as well, but I also think it might be a bit too little, too late, unless it really is somehow appreciated by all the people that didn't hear about it yet, and will after the marketing campaign SV is supposed to pull off later.Problem is, it's quite possible most people interested in sandboxes already know about MO and are fairly sure they don't want to come back.Shame this game didn't play like this on the day it was launched.Oh well. I'm left with waiting for EoC anyway. :P
Still all the luck to SV I still like those guys for putting a better fight than most in this industry.
maybe he just really likes the game?

What an odd thread, the OP first tells us of the fixes made to improve MO
Then tells us to go play another game.
I am going to assume some use of Irony was involved.
MO is hardly a sandbox, its a box of broken dreams. Over 20000 of us bought into the idea, yet 500 are left.

If that... population is already back to pre-awakening levels. No one wants to log in. I've tried for 3 days to get a GM to respond to my petitions and NOTHING. 3 days and each time I tried my petition was open for hours.
This game is done.
