First of all, this is what I have seen the last few days in the beta, if Im wrong somewhere, feel free to correct me =)
I havent played AC1, so its hard for me to tell u about differs from that game, but I have played DAoC and untill now I am sure this game is far more than DAoC will ever be.
I started out last night, created a human rouge... errr archer... went through some training ground and found meself killing whasps. Not that exciting but safe exp atm.
As I advanced to lvl 3 I thought i might as well move on and have a look at what lay ahead.
Now here the trouble started as the amis started to wake up and crow the server... or so it seems as the ping rose from 200 to 2000. =(
I tryed to play a little more, but had to give up as my avatar just stood there looking at the mobs.
--- One night of peaceful sleep ---
Back in the saddle this morning I realised 9 am was a bit to early... still monster lag and nothing else to do than wait...
Thats the scary bit, here comes the funny:
I resumed playing at 12 o'clock and the lag had disappeared!!!
WWEEEEEEEEEEEE ! was my first thought, and I was right...
I lvl ed my scout thing to 5 - 6 and 7 pretty fast and everything went smooth. Then someone told me about this "Vault Quest" ...
"Uhhhh exciting" I thought and went on... found the "key" and headed for the entrance.
Now, I am used to DAoC and x,y coordinates, so u can imagine my surprise as I found myself completely unable to find my way around...
The coordinate 34S,3.1E could as well had been on the moon, and I ran around for an hour or two. This was actually good cause I gained lvl 8 there and saw many strange, yet interesting places.
As I finally had the brains to hit F1 and look under compass all was clear. The world has a center ( 0,0 ) and from there all coords start. So I was somewhere in the NW sektor and had to go south to get to the SE sektor.
Oh happy days: I found the entrance and... the portal is broken !!!
ANTICLIMAX !
Well I went on my exploration again and found more strange places. New mobs too and even another level.
So with my lvl 9 archer (its called archer I think) I met a nice guy called Barf ... he gave me a bow and some armor and told me to spend some xp in Crit Strike and Point Blank and I did....
Now I suddently could kill everything with ease, but the lag issue was sneaking up on me! Barf went LD, I ran abit wawy from the dungeon I had found, and the trouble disappeared...
Well didnt all go away, but the lag stopped.
Found another dungeon, entered it and was slaughtered due to lag and 5-6 new mobs =)
So my story for today ends with me sitting at the Lifestone just outside the Vault Dungeon I couldnt enter earlier today =)
Hope to find out alot more for u guys tomorrow...
Sleep well...
