Regardless of what the manufacturer says, GW is not 56k friendly. I'm fine in the instanced areas, but the cities are pure torture.

You can turn off the Emotes or whatever channels(all, trade, guild, emotes) you want. I don't have much trouble with Lag on this game at all. I have DSL so not sure how much that matters.

the only lag I get is when a city is just loading, but half the time I just select the very last district (for some cities, around 45, even up to District 73!) - there is usually no one in that district.

Played for quite a while today. Hooked up with a pretty good group, which helped a lot. Do miss the extra XP though. :bigcry: One of them was a w/mo who did a whole lot of Char whooping. Damn why did I go w/me.

Hey what the heck is dye for?

The dye is for chaning your armor look. You can mix and match your dye to get new colors then what you pick up. I mixed Orange and Green and got a dark Orange type color that looked kind of cool with my Ringmail armor. If you have some Black dye you can sell that for a lot since it is fairly scarce. I had two vyles of it earlier in the games life and sold it for 1K each, now its up near 5K each.

Cool......I'll have to look into this further.

chile62 · 06-12-2005, 07:18 PM

Funny....I had never come across any dye till after the last post. Found 2 purple and 1 black. Wohoo!!! I'm rich.

This game has some nice touches, like the dye. The way it loads and shuts down so darn quick. Not having to have the CD in when you play.

Where were you when you found the black dye?

As luck would have it I had just created and was starting to play my luscious little monk.

By the way thanks, if not for your post I would not have known what I had. Now to find a buyer.

I've seen it go from $750 to $850.

Sorry I haven't been on lately. Having computer issues at the moment, and will probably end up reformatting and resinstalling this weekend. Luckily from what I know I don't have to worry about this game since it should be all on their end as far as character and items and stuff goes. or should I worry about that?

count minaba · 06-17-2005, 09:58 PM

You wont have seen me online much either... I just cant stop doing 15 to 20 man raids in high end instances on WoW. As they take 3-4 hrs at a time I find I have little left for GW's. Not too worried as I will play it one day

I have moved from my laptop to my desktop with no problems whatsoever. just remember that you'll have to download all the updates when you reinstall.

I was wondering why I never see you online.

You are correct about the game, I play on both my laptop and desktop machine and all I have to do is login and play.
