    I can't find a reason to like this game.

    It is weird though. This game is what a game would be like if you took everything I hate about MMORPG's and made a game out of it.
    Well, I'd enjoy soccer (football) a lot more if they took out all of the silly kicking too. 

    No, probably not true as there comes a point where if devs remove enough features of what made games MMORPGS they cease to resemble them much anymore.

    For me that line was crossed back around 2006 or so.

    Silly kicking? Silly? :)
    Just to say silly kicking has got us into the final of the European Cup! :)

    All except for 2 years ago when they had the best regular season record but got swept in 4 straight by Columbus in the first play-off round.

    Seems like they've learnt their lesson though winning the cup both years after that embarrassment :)

    Called it again. Been spewing hate towards Crowfail for years. And after years I'm finally starting to see other people call is Crowfail too. I pointed out how they wasted backer money. I pointed out the thousand dollar plus cash shop times before they even had an alpha, i pointed out devs with a bad track record. Like, FFS, they used backer money to hire a videographer team. They had near daily posts on that crappy massivelyop site. Fuck Crowfail.

    I felt the same way when GW2 launched Heart of Thorns.

    So.. respect. Gotta know what you enjoy, and follow that.

    I'm not sure those two things were connected but but it was around the same time.

    Apparently some still feel they should wait until a game releases before critiquing or becoming a font of hate spewing over it, depending on inclination.

    Bizarre by the standards of today, I know.

    I reserve judgment until a game launches and MMOs are different from most multiplayer games in that they can be changed more than say co-op to make a better game. Albion saw a revival about a year after launch I think it was, but does this game have that sort of time to get the numbers up? I don't know.

    My opinion was that the difference between this and Albion is that Albion had a lot of interest at launch compared to this game and I was very doubtful. But answering to another post I noticed that EVE had low pop and an upwards trend for a few years since its launch. Different times of course, and only time will tell, but at least it is not unprecedented for a PVP game to pick up even if it had a humble launch.

    EVE-Offline :: EVE-Online Status monitor

    Albion was avavible on pads at the time , Makes a huge difference .. and now on phones also..  And F2P model

      and throw Steam in there

     Apples and Oranges here.. Not worth mentioning in the same breath

    Albion was also B2P+optional sub in the beginning and no Steam, CF can always go to Steam/F2P in the future. Agree on the tablets/phones bit.

    There's many differences between CF, EVE and Albion. The chance that Crowfall numbers may improve is small, many games started off bad and died, but people have been saying that for the games that picked up as well, always giving plausible (and many times implausible) reasons. Only time will tell.
    Just to point out they didn't get the iPad version working for quite awhile post launch, but Android option was available much sooner.

    One reason I pre-ordered and tried the game in early beta was the promise of being able to access it from my iPad however with this option being missing I didn't even try the game after they finally got the tablet support working as by then the game was starting to decline. (Before they went F2P.)

    I have problem running Crowfall.  I haven't updated my computer in 5 years and my computer just can't handle it without performance issue.

    It's definitely not for the low end computer.  I'm already running on the lowest setting.  Even though I felt the graphic isn't good so I don't know why it need such high end spec.

    Poorly optimized maybe?

    But honestly to stay current in the PC space I've found it best to upgrade every three years, especially to play the latest game releases.

    Just looked and your CPU and Graphics card are both listed high end under benchmarks, although obviously not at the top.

    I find it the Graphics card makes all the difference for gaming.  Which sucks right now because prices of those are through the roof.

    I will agree with above that optimization is likely a problem with some games.
