The things I like and dislike about SB

in Shadowbane

I have played shadowbane for 4 months now and there are 2 things that i liked about SB, the society and the economic system. I loved the fact that you could make a guild with a castle, buildings ect, and also that you could furnish or put furniture in buildings to give it a custom look. Also you could hire guards to keep out non allied guilds and people out of your guild area. Also the society or community was also a great aspect of the game except the PvP flamers who killed n00bs for no reason knowing that they would not find anything valuable on them. I met a lot of good friends on SB and played with a lot of kewl players. Now there are a couple of things that i did not like that ended up making me quit the game even knowing that i had made some good friends and made some nice houses and shops hahaa. One thing was the loading time for the game, Wow i have a high end comp system for SB, i mean i got 512 dual channel memory a 2.6ghz 800 FSB P4 processor and a geforce fx 5200 256mb grphics card and a 7200 rpm 120 gig 8mb cache hard drive. Now these system specs should do perfecto on this game and i still get the gray landscape thing when your game is trying to load, I HATED THIS. Also the graphics could get upgraded i mean a new 3d engine wouldn't be to bad, I mean if UBI has the money for it they should invest in one. So concluding the two things i liked in this game were the society and the economic systems, the two things i did not like were the load times and the graphics in this game. I am not trying to thrash on SB but i am just trying to let people know there are good things about SB and there are bad things about SB. And i have just presented those things, If anyone has more things they would like to add to this or if you have comments please post.

    Honestly SB is a memory hog. The game operates well on 512, but if you can afford it I would highly recommend atleast 1 gig to 1.5 gig of ram.  Also i noticed you use and FX 5200 card. I had alot of probelms running SB with that card.  ATI cards do alot better in my experience.
