Welcome to a brand New World

i17 Hits today. don't forget to patch up.

everything is so shiny and clean! and well-polished?

did you go to test?

btw they are still testing it's not up yet.

I am just wondering how long it is going to take this evening to run an all DS/ MM CAD SF. Summoned demons fighting a big summoned demon...

naw I still can't get in Played around on test for a while though; I know this sounds crappy of me but I really don't notice a difference in graphics except that now a lot more things are a lot darker (I've already had to turn up brightness just to see in this game) besides the shiny water, but apparently my Comp notices because I lost at least 10 fps when I switch to ultra mode.

well not everyones comp can handle ultra mode

i ran the settings using the default slider 1 tick above the minimum and the game still looked amazing and i didnt notice any loss in framerate

Ouch my pride.

I regularly trilog in max detail with little to no fps drop... you know it might have been just the instability of test when I was on. I WAS crashing every few minutes for a while there.

My 2.2 dualcore cries when I tri-log :[

I can dial things up a bit, but not too far. I should try to turn off ultra mode to see what my fps was before (never really bothered with it, as it's been quite smooth for a long time). I got mine to about 30 fps by adjusting things about, but that still felt a bit choppy from time to time in Faultline.

Water looked great there, and the shadows I saw in the Wentworth's before that were great... the skylight cast very realistic shadows on the floor and really added something. So I'll have to find a balancing point for performance but leaving some of the bells and whistles going. Though the change isn't too dramatic... nothing else looked all that different texture-wise, etc.

I started up the new missions heroside, and it was quite fun. You actually have text bubbles from a contact radioing you inside of a mission, and some dialogue choices (just two, but it does feel more varied than yes and no, at least, and adds to the fun).

I'll have to get a handle on the new auction window. I was quite used to the old one, so I'll probably like the new one once I get used to it.

Only at 50% patched. WTF.

Didn't you pre-download? I don't think my computer had to download much once it started up... just had to install everything, which shouldn't take too long.

Hope you didn't have to wait too much, Viv.

I think I might have skipped it, which would explain the length. Thanks for the reminder, GP.

BTW Viv I'm diggin the new avatar.

Smexy!!

everything is so pretty! And I picked out a new tail for Mann Eater. She is so happy with it that she decided to go out and get another level. But missed Masque's ITF as we were on a timed mission that we completed just as I saw "ITF full, thanks".

They cleared the Wentworth history last night so I was so full of anxiety, since I rarely play red side these days, that I have full inventory but didn't want to sell anything.

And has anyone else notice how small the Enhancement Level numbers are when you go to place new enhancements? And I was looking through a 23" monitor too.

Voo is the exception to everything.

Castle actually had to clarify that there are no current plans to add enhancements to powers because of people overspeculating. Too funny.
