Suggestion: Implement 1.0's storyline

Maybe its just me but I still feel like 1.0 graphics (at least the armor) still had better textures. A lot of the gear in ARR looks flat to me.

You bet it did. So much so that it needed about a GTX460 to run good. A potted plant in 1.0 took up the same amount of memory characters do now in 2.0. The game was beautiful with inertia which really added to the immersion. Servers ended up not being able to handle it when large amounts of players we're on or close together.

I think that had more to do with lack of optimization than anything else. My PC is pretty beefy and I still had some issues with 1.0 back then when I really shouldn't have. I still think ARR looks really good though. It's just the armor looks flat to me. It doesn't....pop? I guess that would be the word to use.

Direct X11 client is coming. "please look forward to it."

Really? Did they give a time frame? That would do wonders for the game.

There was no set timeframe, it was announced during the Beta. IIRC they were focusing on the PS3/4 Versions first, then the Direct x11 will follow. From the sounds of things though, its getting pushed back a little until some time after the China Release. If you read the first couple questions here, it should shed some light. The sooner the better but seriously though, are the graphics really so terrible you cant play it? Been seeing complaints about "terrible graphics" since beta. I just don't think its worth the overreaction to something they are actively working on.

And all this only for a pot (PC here mean Player Character) ^^

Remember the chistmas tree that have melded some players graphic cards?
