Warhammer Online Producer on Expansions

WAR launch has been great for me but one thing bothers me.

The game "jerks" a little sometimes. When you run a scenario you stand there and fight with a player. Then the game freezes for 0.1-0.2 seconds and the player warps away. Very annoying for me as a Ironbreaker as my job is to be in the face of the other player and shield casters etc. Also the loot seams a little jerky sometimes also. Kill a mob - Press loot - Press loot - press loot - press loot - Loot opens.

That and some other little things (Link loot in chat, WTF!!).

Is this as solid as WoW? Are there annoying little bugs in places that are normally taken for granted? Is it fun?

"...forward-thinking, cool, content system patches that will give free stuff to the players that they'll love."
But, since there's a monthly fee attached, nothing you're doing is really "for free".
Unless he's saying this is a strictly DLC expansion, and not a retail box. I guess I can see that; still false, but I can see someone saying it.

WotLK is going to literally destroy WAR

Capital cities for all races plz

Ooops, meant to make this its own post, not a reply, as many might benefit from this...

There is actually a potential fix for the scenario/RvR lag / stuttering issue many have mentioned, and it worked for me at least. First, let me explain, so the solution doesn't sound as strange as it might:

Typically when you are doing Scenarios/RvR, you are in a group, and have group frames visible. In the group frames you can see what buffs and debuffs each group member have. These buffs and debuffs are, as it stands, being updated at least 10 times per second, maybe even more, hard to tell. The constant updating of dozens of effects causes client lag, perhaps best described as "stuttering". I was suffering from this even though I have a very up-to-date system. (C2D 3ghz, 4 gigs, 8800GT)

Luckily, some research into this yielded results:

What we have there is an UI addon that simply limits the amount of times the effects are updated per second. The default value is twice per second, and with that value, it all but completely eliminated the stuttering for me. Scenarios are now very smooth. I recommend anyone else suffering from this problem gives it a shot.

There is also a second bug in the engine causing bad fps, that is not related to the same problem. It has to do with the game "over-utilizing" your CPU for some odd reason, leading to bad FPS. The fix for (at least some) Nvidia cards is at least as strange as the previous one: Try forcing FSAA and AF _ON_ from your Nvidia control panel. My CPU loads went from 95-100% to 50-70% when I did this, and my fps got much better all-around. If you are an ATI user, I'm afraid I have no solution to offer.

Lots of other possible fixes can be found at http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=74 - these two alone however turned by WAR from a frustrating collection of bad fps and stuttering into a smooth experience.

Good luck.

I love this game. Most fun MMO I've ever played by faaaaaaaaaaaar.

WAR is perhaps the only MMO i have played where i dont feel like i have to level up or improve my character. Theres ALWAYS stuff to do no matter what level you are.
