Pretty sure he's not an employee, just a volunteer that has to put up with a lot of **** from noobies. @"shopalong#1200" I think it's probably a side-effect of shutting down the 3vs3 and 6vs6 fights. They likely both ran on the same x-server.
-
No matter how much the players are spending though, if they are negatively impacting the play of others, would that not also reduce the potential profit of the game? New or old makes no real difference, though older players are probably more likely to spend. Old players though have been leaving in droves due to changes…

I'm not sure why original account holders would not be able to answer their security questions. I mean, the whole point of a security question is to ask something you would know. Sure you may have changed the question options since, but it's not like you could forget the original questions answers. Unless that is, you…

@herbage No, you don't own your pixels, PWE does. The ToS makes this pretty clear. They could permanently shut down the servers tonight, and wouldn't owe you anything. Read 25.6 again. So lets see what's really going on here.... 1. Factions like Vindicate, Hoorah, Legendary, ect. have been sharing accounts and violating…
-
I think it's more because Origin is trying not to be Hoorah 2.0, and all the Hoorah peeps are annoyed they can't push their way around like they thought they could. Hoorah probably assumed they could just roll in and take over, and that's not happening. So it's not so much that Origin is dead, but that Hoorah people are…

Why is this not in the video forum again?

FPS is local on your system. Maybe if you opened a thread in Technical Support providing the information SylenThunder asks for.

Here's traceroutes to all the PWI IP addresses for TT. http://forum.arcgames.com/pwi/discussion/1205860/constant-dc-since-coming-back/p1#latest

All the trace routes I've done are showing an issue with the PWE router dropping packets. This trace is taken from work so the initial connection is ****, but the results pretty much speak for themselves. Gets to PWE and then has issues. Also, everyone I know trying to run two clients, has one of them constantly…

Well, when you aren't properly staffing and have almost no support team whatsoever, this is basically what happens. Instead of having one dedicated CM per title, they have one CM working 4-5 titles. Instead of having a support team for each title, they have a pathetically small support team covering all of them. It's no…

To be fair, it's also caused by having s**tty AMD or Intel GPU's and bad drivers. This has been a known issue since like 2009. @mwk Merging servers has nothing at all to do with how the client renders on your system. Also, most people have issues because of three things. 1. They are trying to play on a toaster. 2. They did…
-
@mwk It's not that PWI has issues with GPU support, it's that it doesn't use the GPU. You have to remember, when the client engine was designed, a high-end consumer video card had DX7/8 and 32MB of RAM. It also does not support more than one CPU core, so it doesn't matter that you've got 12 of them, the client only uses…

The Koreans have been hitting other games and sites pretty hard. It's kind of amazing it's taken them this long to make it back here again.

False positives are very common with programs like Arc, and with game clients. You should always exclude these folders from your antivirus software. SylenThunder has been kind enough to provide detailed instructions on how to do this in one of his sticky threads here. I personally put all of my game installs into one…
-
beast isn't even the one having the issue. They're posting for other people who are too lazy to even post on the forums. Why does it matter if I know what AV solution they are using? That's their business. The solution for the issue is pretty easy though, and it's been gone over numerous times since I started playing back…
-
This is common when your texture files are corrupted. Which is common when you don't exclude the client from your antivirus. Which is even more common because reading and following directions is hard.
-
No issues on Twilight Temple. Maybe you should read sticky threads.
-
GPU is terrible because the game doesn't even use it. PWI was made in 2004. The other game you mentioned, was made in 2012. In the computer world, that would be akin to comparing a '68 Chevy Nova (stock) to a '92 Chevy Corsica. The game engines are light years apart. Don't like Arc? Use Steam. OR, read the damn sticky…

Seriously, you finally got rid of the jail on your avatar, and now you make a post to get it back?

TT server is having some serious issues as well. Ping to server is awesome, traceroute is clean, but the server is not displaying mobs or NPC's properly in Primal.

That's mostly because today's "gamer" has the intellectual patience of a gnat. Look at top-tier games released in the past 6-7 years that aren't MMO's. You can not fail. It's not possible to lose. They take games that could be really awesome and challenging, and turn them into a mature equivalent of Bob the Builder.…

This forum isn't for GM's to respond to. It's for players to help other players. You've been asked to provide information so someone could offer tips and assistance, yet you give nothing. Several times you have been asked, and several times you have given nothing. I would say that you fail, and you need to do the needful.
-
Not really. You just need to carry scrolls/dolls. The PvP system is PWI is already pretty carebear as it is. Most games with a real PvP system, you not only can lose multiple items, but skill/attribute points as well. Usually with those you have a set period of time where no one can pick your items, and you are the only…

There are necros, and then there are NECROS.

Don't hold your breath. This IS PWE we're talking about here. They care about as much about their games as I do about sticking my head into a bucket of tar.
-
Did ya verify the files? Did ya exclude the client from your antivirus? Did ya read any of the stiky threads?
-
This is pretty much why saying "we'll reset the TW map after three months", and then not paying attention to it until after three months have passed and people raise hell on the forum is such a stupid idea. I don't understand why PWE has such a hard time keeping up with what they say they will do.

Try any of the tips?
