I am almost willing to bet money that if I got you to link a ss showing fps in WZ or Illum it would show around the mark of 10-20 fps (aka borderline unplayable) but because you love the game so much and either got used to it or simply don't know any better it feels like an awesome smooth gameplay.

He's probably another (1) shill (2) low level player who hasn't heard of Ilum.

Yes I know, just because I don't doesn't mean everyone doesn't. I love the heroengine and I know BW will continue to do lots of good work on it!
^^^ works for heroengine

And yes, it is relatively new. Well...this release is. They had previous versions for demo. This engine was built and designed for MMOs specifically. It has an entire toolset dedicated this type of platform.

It's relatively cheap and relatively easy.

Instead, you chose the lazy way and are trying to make a game fit an engine. Not only that, you picked a terrible single-threaded engine that can't even process commands before animations finish, hence all of the ability delay rage you're seeing.


Seriously. Blizzard built an engine to fit their game, they're billions (trillions yet?) richer. You didn't, and you're missing out on Billions in part due to this decision.
Why?
swtor is heavily threaded, more so than absolutely any other game ever.

The hero engine is bad. Champions has the same ability lag this game suffers from.
umm...

Rift has the same engine as Warhammer, and there were no problems. (Heavily modified engine, but still the same base engine.)
