At launch i had no technical issues at all. I had steady frame rates of 40+ fps on high settings and never crashed. I think that most people who complain about AoCs launch had computers running below the optimum specs.

I do agree that the content was lacking at launch but they have been doing great at adding more from what I've seen but I am no longer playing as its just not the game for me even though i think it IS a very good game.

I think that id AoC is any indication of how nice looking this game will be that is good and as long as they have the RPG part of the game squared away as well as having enough content at launch to keep people motivated this will be a fantastic game.
