I believe it is the AoC engine.

oO

Yeah that's the AoC engine, but it makes a huge difference, I'm not sure if it's clever use of a lvl editer or whether it's for real.

OMG!

It is not the AoC engine, they are working on the new ao engine seperatly

and it is going to be Dx9.
what that means is our hot great graphic card gets finally utilized and by that you can expect faster FPS + graphic ofc.

I hope they change they way you attack too, I'm tired of Q attacks so boring.... I would love some real attack combo's, if they can change 3d engine they can certainly change attack methods

The question is, do they want to.

If u want some changes... lets use an azerty keyb and just press 'A' key to attack

Madarab · « **Reply #15 on:** January 25, 2008, 10:28:21 pm »

if they want to? they are making it possible in AoC why cant they reprogram for ao aswell? they rewriting 3d engine arent they? weapon attack should bee aim based in some degree with different key combos like in Oblivion.
That would certainly make old members come back for full, finally "a new game" feeling

Madarab · « **Reply #16 on:** January 25, 2008, 10:30:02 pm »

It would also fix the kite problem, can no longer run from target and shoot and keep running "from" hahaha thats so lame!!

Triplet · « **Reply #17 on:** January 27, 2008, 11:26:14 pm »

Looks nice... but knowing FC's history I doubt it will be released in the next few years.

Joliie · « **Reply #18 on:** January 28, 2008, 12:46:39 am »

Well the last year or so, I think Funcom really showed an interest in their business and updating add new stuff. The engine will certainly help, but it wont be enough for a lot of people, but hey there is 10m zombies playing wow

so should be impossible to have 80k playing AO?

I does look like the AoC engine, so could be cleaver use of a map editor.

Mad, sure it would be nice if they at least fixed the must face enemy, but I am sure the backstabbers would rebel

Fatcrusher · « **Reply #19 on:** January 28, 2008, 10:11:36 am »

I allways found it amusing that you could be running from a player at mad run speed with your back to them and do an "Aimed" shot lol.

Funcom confirmed that they are writing a new graphics engine for AO.

i hope the FPS gets better =/ seems every time i upgrade the performance of AO gets worse

Oh? Interesting.
