  1. I wish NC would provide accurate feedback on the issue.
    People seem to be hoping that something fixes it..
    Without knowing 100% what causes the flashing, nothing can seem to fix it..

    It is happening across multiple different video cards and multiple different video card manufacturers.
    Here are a list of what I believe I have learned, but I can't tell if it is the same for everyone.

    1) There is no pattern, it comes and goes without anything that I can use to figure out what's causing it. This can prevent the fixing of it. You can only think you've fixed it, due to no pattern just because it's gone does not mean it's not coming back.

    2) The rate at which flashing occurs increases depending on which direction I'm moving and the speed at which I'm moving.. (Jumping seems to have a worse effect for me, Super Jump is worse then Super Speed... for me...)

    3) It has gone away for a day or so without doing anything. No attempt to fix it, the same with various attempts that I THINK fixed it.. Which prove futile..

    Due to the randomness in how this occurs, and that I can effectively say there have been moments where it has happened for MULTIPLE people at the exact same time, I can say with close to a guarentee that it is NOTHING that the player is specifically doing.
    This leaves NC (If they say it's not them: It either isn't, or they can't figure out what it is yet...), similar and recent changes that span multiple Video Card Manufacturers, Video Cards, or other possible hardware?

    Unless all of the Manufacturers (or hardware/software peoples) have made similar changes to their products, it's possible it isn't them either.

    This means the problem could be NCSoft releasing an update that has an effect on a semi-new update from Manufacturers.
    It could contain code they've never used before, or that they use every year but due to a recent change by Manufacturers this year it developed problems for a lot of people..

    I can't pretend to know, and I can't say all of this is fact..
    Because a lot of it probably isn't..
    It's opinions, and I'm quite sick of the flashing which has lead me to the conclusion that due to many people trying to fix it which don't share much in similarity.. It may be NCSoft's problem...
  2. I agree that they have been clear, but it doesn't APPEAR that they've been correct...

    I purchased Going Rogue before Freedom (I would have tons of veteran crap if my vet account wasn't actually banned in '08 ): but that's old news), plus the two that are given to you from the release of freedom.

    I'm currently a VIP, but before I subscribed I dabbled in freedom..
    As far as I can remember I only had two character slots.

    I KNOW I bought Going Rogue before freedom, and you say we receive two innately + two from owning Going Rogue before freedom's release..

    So if I do infact only seem to have two, why is this?

    Also: Any chance I can have my current account updated with my super old account's veteran status?

    Didn't think so ):

    So to test it I've been harassing somewhat lower level mobs so I could easily do 50+ knockbacks in a short time.
    But I found out that the recharge effect is only applied once after switching Repel on then never again. Sometimes it didn't even occur at all.

    I tested this in Grandville, outside AE.
    I can't be absolutely certain, but I would think that it being slotted in Repel would restrict it to the same guide lines as Chance for +End being in Stamina.

    Toggles with procs in them (mainly Stamina with PS: +End) have a CHANCE to proc every 10 seconds.
    I would suggest turning repel on and just sitting there watching it, it might take a little while considering you're looking at a 10% chance every 10 seconds..
    What I'm not sure on is whether or not it will proc off the actual repel..
    If it procs off the actual repel, it's likely it won't act as a toggle proc and will not have a chance to proc every 10 seconds..

    Some things to consider, I hope I helped..

    Hopefully you get a chance to read this before/if it gets locked for being necro'd..
    But at the same time it is similar to your problem, so that's ultimately up to the Devs.
  4. I don't know a lot in the way of computer parts, I'm one of those that knows enough to get by...

    I was reading about how the 9800 GT is essentially a gateway video card into the Ultra Mode?

    I don't understand this considering I am currently running the game with maxxed out Ultra.

    I have an Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT with 1gb of ram, 6gbs of ddr2 ram, an AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ 2.60GHz, and 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate..

    I stumbled upon this forum looking for a solution to my constant screen flickering problem, but I'm not seeing it here..

    The game runs absolutely great with everything maxxed other then two noticeable problems:
    1) When I first began to run it I would crash due to what appeared to be adding more... to the screen?
    It would happen randomly upon /info'ing someone.
    That's the only time that I can recall it would happen, hasn't happened in a while.

    2) I've recently run into constant screen flickering, it ONLY happens when moving.
    I was looking for a solution to this problem and others seem to just be getting screen flickering, mine only happens while moving.. It can make it difficulty to fix considering I can't completely reproduce it..
    It will only happen when I move, but sometimes it goes away for a little bit causing me to think I fixed it when I didn't -_-

    Anyways:
    Is there something wrong that I don't know about with the 9800 GT?
    Hard to believe I'm the only one that can run everything on Ultra with it....
