Let's just hope it comes together like AO did. You could argue that it's (AO) the best MMORPG out there.

Seems as if Ubi has decided to emulate Funcom rather than Mythic: it doesn't matter if you create the best game ever, if your account activation mechanism doesn't work.

Let's see: it takes 4-5 steps through graphic heavy pages on a secure server. They should eliminate the graphics and combine the steps into 1-2 pages. For starters.

Secondly, you really should NOT be able to enter all your info, but at the last step be unable to complete the activations. That's just dumb.

When AO first came out, it took me over a day before I saw the game world: Shadowbane has about 20 hours to go before it takes the crown of "Worst MMORPG Launch Ever."

Too bad, too: a friend of mine who was able to sign up says the game is rather fun.

I would tell you if I could ... as it is no one in our office can get past the ubi.com account create screen, all afternoon. The signup website is not very happy...

Want ... play... smash... kill...

Anyone know if this patch has optimized the graphics? I was playing the beta a couple weeks ago and the graphics engine was really laggy, even at the lowest settings.
