A lot of us, are playing with TOA client because our pc's cant run catacombs, dr or minotauir.... so.. I think that almost 30 or 40 of your players will go to another server because you are making your sever to players with uba pc's... or with new one xD


Good Luck!!

Spain(hib) / LynX (alb) / Lince(mid) good luck all! see ur... in other server... /cry

I'm still at 56% update progress. If my PC wont handle the graphics, then I guess I have 3 options..

1. Edit the graphics manually, and cut off unwanted stuff from the game. Long and painful option.
2. Give my accounts to the guildies, and go to I50.
3. Play with lag, and yeah.. /cry

I always have lags:D You will get used to it^^

Uthgard will die with this new patch.. lots of players play with Toa.. let's go back to 1.89 pls

Actually DOL server can support both old clients and new ones without restricting it to minimum 1.90. Players with 1.89 TOA clients could still play here with those who have 1.90 Labyrinth at same time. It is Uthgard's staff decision to set the minimum client ver to 1.90.

P.S. If I ever camp bridge tops and someone nukes my sorry arse from below, then it was my own decision to keep TOA client. I'd rather have that, than mass local lag and get nuked everywhere.

agree with Spain, Snip, Crystallin.... i play with TOA too.

we didnt need that.... :,(

So true, why on earth does uthgard needs to have 1.90?
And don't give me that "it's not fair in NF otherwise" crap because that can be solves bringing back OF! (which would bring even more players!)

I'd like 1.80 ingame and rather just earlier! I really don't see why they should force everyone in goa/mythic's direction. I just brought 4 people to this server who were new to daoc and they were loving it, sadly enough 3 of them play ToA because it's the best option..

We really don't know what to do now and I think indeed loads of players will leave which will kill something that's not worth being killed by THIS!

Uthgard rocks, but if this goes on it's over for me I guess..

you can edit everything clientside ... transparent trees for example ... transparent walls ...

freeshards rock ... a reason why i no longer play =)

Excuse me but if you can't run daoc on your PC it's your own fault. Upgrade those piece of crap PCs you have and you'll have no trouble with daoc. The very idea of daoc having client lag is laughable. It's the year 2008, PC parts aren't expensive at all anymore.

Secondly, do remind yourself that playing on Uthgard is free, if you're gonna be a whiny b*tch about a gfx upgrade and quit over it stop complaining because you've been playing for free all this time. A few tear soaked "I quit" posts won't make much impact on the staff because they didn't lose a paying customer (in short: no one cares).

Personally I am glad the game will gain a new and refreshing look, complaining is the last thing I'd do.

Although it will probably start a flame war i must say that - i couldn't agree more with you! In my opinion new grahpics are absolutely awesome and contrary to the last few opinions, i think that this update will actually bring more players onto the server. Server admins are working hard every day to make Uthard a better gaming expirience for all of us and guess what? Like poster above said - they are all doing it for free. I know its not my place to say this (but i'm going to say it anyways) if you dont like it - don't play!

Already a solution was given - download Labyrinth client, its well optimized. And if i remember correctly you can lower those graphics settings a few notches in graphics options menu. Also, if you didn't notice, admins here are always responding in favor of everyones suggestions - if too many people start complaining (like many posters above) i think that admins will find a solution that will work fine for all of us.

well, i updated and it works on my pc... i hate the new q-bar grphics but maybe we'll get a patch to get the old grphics soon, just sad everyone spent all night to update and most where offline <;;; hope tomorrow will be better...

btw, why does most players have grey names with (RP) behind it?

Whine whine whine instead of giving it a try, as always. I'm getting sick of it, be careful...

Edit: As multiple times recommended, on slow computers take LotM client and set all settings to minimum, use ToA models for characters.

I can play with DR or LoTM too.. I'll be a bit slowed but I can play with that.. I'm worried about the people who can't play anymore for this problem.. I guess it's better playing with an old patch than playing with a new one and few player this is my modest hopinion.. For the selfish players who doesn't understand that DAoC isn't a simply RPG but it's a MMORP i'll remember that population is fundamental to have fun here..

Or. Just buy a good computer.
