I've only had 2 major issues so far, the first is not world-shaking but worth mentioning; last night on my archer alt, Delbow, I bought a Long Espada Eslanova for 10k, and it instead added an Arabian Straight Sword to my inventory. Not a huge deal but a bummer not to get the item you want.

The second issue I've been having since the patch is much more significant, especially if it is happening to other people; I have been getting random FPS drops, where it will go from my usual 40-60FPS down to something that doesn't even resemble movement. Maybe a quarter of a frame per second. It effectively "freezes" my game and forces me to alt+tab out of the program and back in (a process that takes 5-10 seconds) to correct it.

The issue appears to happen exponentially more often each time I do this. So the first time it happens will be maybe 5-10 minutes into play, then the next will happen 3-5 minutes later, then 2 minutes, and eventually its happening within seconds of alt+tabbing back in.

I have never had this issue before the patch. I thought maybe to blame it on my GPU overheating but I tested the temperature while running the game and it keeps a stable 63 Celsius, normal for my box.

In case it matters, though, I am running DX9, Windows XP, and have an Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT (old card I know, but it shouldn't have this kind of issue with CRPG.)

Thanks for listening, and keep up the good work!

Yeh, it might be soemthing connected to the increased server side lag since the patch hit.  Must be less compact data or something because many servers seem overloaded at lower numbers of people than before the patch.

Where are the Long Espada Eslavonas? I just bought one and it stole my 10,000. If you are going to have a massive glich like this, can you please make it so that the sword isn't purchasable? Because that just wasted all of my cash.

I have exactly the same issue with the screen "freezing", alt+tab or alt+enter is the only solution but by the time I manage to do this usually I am dead, i thought this is a problem with my pc (altough never had this before), but it seems then it is affecting others.
My cprg also randomly quits to windows when the screen freezes.....

any solutions would be very welcome....

I also had the "freezing" problem, and i turned the graphics to the lowest setting, and now it actually works.

I had the same problem in native single player with the battle scale mod in which you can increase your battle size to 1500 persons. So i guess it has something to do with increased
hardware requirements.

I also experience higher ping and more rubberbanding.  It seems the servers are having a hard time when they are full.

I also think when they change item stats they should reset all heirlooms.

Yeah, reset them BUT give players the choice to reuse them, not fucking up their invested time.
I was the first one who started -1-ing everyone, now everyone does it to everyone.

Indeed, there are a lot of weird combat anomalies, for an example, opponent strikes an overhead, I block up, I die.
He says I blocked down. The hell?

It was a sideswing. But yes, it was a bit odd seeing you just block down while my elegant poleaxe rushed toward you.

Sideswing? Okay then.

Still, my character clearly blocked that direction on my screen, and it was a down block server-side...

The game showing the wrong block is an old thingy that hasn't got anything to do with this patch.
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

It's happening a lot more often, though.

It might be just a detail, and certainly shouldn't be a priority, but on the old simple HTML template, we could see like the 10 last active threads on the forum. I think it was a handy feature, when you don't wan't to look all over the forum for the new posts.


Also +1 to lower the amount of shortcut messages, I mean, Q, Q, F to whistle?! Some might be kept though, like "Shieldwall" but for example "attack the left flank" seems a bit too much. :wink:

yeah a decent amount of items are still bugged, so don't waste money on it, when the devs have fixed the problem, they'll be back.
