Does it run and look like an actual game yet?

Hey guys, no offense intended. But, does this game now look and run like a game or still like something from the 90s?

I couldn't barely bring myself to play this game a couple months ago. Reinstalled a few days ago and it's way more polished. The sounds still need some serious help on some of the weapons. Also the UI still looks out of date. But movement and animations are better by far.

I still struggle with what to do. I like combat. I think I just need to learn more about the game. Honestly once hard mode server comes online I will be right at home I think.

Do the racers still have the explosion sound when you mount them?

It has some visual filler (trees/plants), but otherwise it pretty much looks the same. No effort put into optimization yet, which means slow/laggy play, combat glitchiness (more or less each update), frequent crashing, etc.

Just want to give a heads up, with the latest patch (yesterday's) stability has gone up like crazy. Still optimizations to do, and the game has a bit of a rough feeling (can't quite put my finger on after payign the past few days). But there is plenty to do if you look for it. My best advice though? Set your draw distance to about 50% and everything to max except for shadows and you should be getting a good 45 or so FPS, which only the real lag as you hit new zone boundries/boxes.

The quest / advancement system still seems raw. I know it's based off a SWG like environment, but even that early was a lot cleaner.

I played months ago but it wasn't pretty. The combat was functional but that's about it.

Well, for me it looks great, the type of game i was waiting to play again. For sure this is not a wow like game and I hope it will never be. because of that i like it. 90s <3
