  • On SSD Drives I only see loading screens for a fraction of the time I used to. Sometimes the screen just blinks. Pretty soon, unless the game companies program in delays, the loading screns will all be a thing of the past anyway.
  • Did the trial, bought the game and subbed. The depth and complexity is amazing. Awesome huge world. Everything I like in an MMO complete with a unique setting that isnt all about unicorns and dragons. Yay! 
  • There are a number of graphic options to turn down spell effects but yes, Aion is a flashy gear driven game. There are unique pieces that you will want to acquire. I happen to like gear driven games more  than the skill level based ones. The combos …
  • Im playing on both KR Retail and Test servers and it doesnt feel like a grind fest. I cant really tell you about the quality of the quests but they seem on par or slightly better than  what is out there today. I have not tried to do any of the big a…
  • I just dove in, waiting on account activation. Yay! I havent ever been this excited to play a game that I cant read, lol
  • The more I see the more excited I get. Cant wait to play this one. Looks like it mihgt keep me busy for a while, yay! I like the pvp component and that it rewards the side who maintains the forts. good stuff.
  • Originally posted by BigfootSean Your network card is not going to give you any considerable jump in performance by going to pcie vs PCI vs integrated on board and probably, for home usage ISA was enough. I do like the concept of these things but…
  • Originally posted by BigfootSean Originally posted by Hashbrick The problem is, is people think this "magical" card is just going to obliterate lag which as someone stated is wildly thrown out of context and is no general definition anymore. At…
  • Originally posted by Antipathy Originally posted by fmnch35 Loken kills 128,688 people a day That's the statistic which really impressed me. A single 5-man boss getting that many kills! I know he's one of the nastier 5-man boss, but even so…
  • Originally posted by Kyleran OP, you may have purchased your timecards from ISK sellers instead of legitimate timecard vendors.  If so, you probably got a discount price which should have been your first clue. I know people who bought ISK from se…
  • /sigh If only combat were really like that in the game. Great vid  thanks for links.
  • I was thinking of buying a Korean retail key and playing that one. I have heard there are some english speaking folks doing that now and  it isnt too hard to figure out. Would be nice to be able to get ahead when the International client launches. A…
  • I find 8gb to be helpful in Vista. It allows you to turn of disk paging which is slower than memory paging. I have noticed that overall my system runs much better on 8gb over 4. With memory as cheap as it is now there is no reason not to have it. …
  • Good Stuff. Looks like fun. May have to wade through all the Korean text and give it a shot. Dont think I can wait until Q3/4 to play   Hope all the music isnt like that though.
  • Originally posted by mlauzon Well, you can see my computer specs in my sig...so you know I have a high-end machine. I am still not a big fan of onboard anything, so would I get the Ultra version of the card...maybe; I don't plan on doing triple c…
  • Originally posted by mlauzon   Originally posted by slipline This is the most unbiased review I found and they cant find a reason to spend $200 on it. http://www.legitreviews.com/article/478/1/ This is such a marketing scam. $200!    L…
  • Bounty systems always seem to get exploited. Friends cash in on them and split the rewards, or some other exploit is found making the bounty a form of money farming itself. I like the idea of gaining access to the players vault or something. Possibl…
  • Originally posted by Salvatoris As a network engineer, I can't believe these guys are still in business.  This card is unnecessary and overpriced.   You can get a decent gigabit NIC for a fraction of the cost and I guarantee you will not be able …
  • I'm not sure how you can say a company that bans cheaters by the tens of thousands, takes gold selling and bot selling companies to court is somehow in bed with them.  The company that creates and supports in game mechanics to allow RMT in their gam…
  • Originally posted by risenbones It's an interesting start. What I would like to know and something that could make or break my interest in the game is.... Do the gangs control territory?  If my gang sets up shop somewhere and defeats all commers …
