That wouldn't make sense, cause I know better than to try and defend a game that doesn't deserve defending.

But yes, "I know you are but what I am" still works on most grade school children if you want to try it with them.

You really don't get how this "evidence" thing works, do you? You also seemingly have a layperson's understanding of technology.

No wonder you blame the engine with no proof.

I had 80fps fighting at the gates of Aden, I could actually see the animations in gargantual zergfights in Abyss, but somehow I have 2fps all the time in 40vs40 fights on Ilum. That's how I know this engine sucks old socks. I don't have to be an engine developer to say that much.

Lol when Aion first started you were lucky to get 10fps in the Abyss unless you disabled everything including player models, half the time for mass fights you were attacking name plates and little more.

Still treating your opinions as facts?

How old are you? Isn't it time you learned some critical thinking skills? I could recommend some books if you'd like.

Unfortunately I can't today, because I have several episodes of Red Eye PVRed that I need to watch.
Impressive riposte, funny also because it's an accurate assessment of the thread.

Too bad.. the Hero Engine was hailed as a finalist for one of the best Engines for MMO's in 2008 by whom you ask?

Game Developer Magazine.

and often won many titles in conventions..by whom? People who make MMO's.

yup. This engine sucks according to Armchair devs everywhere..
