Free Dark Age of Camelot Graphics Upgrade

Described via Voodoo Extreme, in something of a roundabout way Mythic Studios has released the Dark Age of Camelot 'Catacombs' graphics upgrade for free to its players. Apparently they've gone all out improving the new user experience, and as a result to see the improvements to the starting towns the Catacombs engine is needed. The download, which takes up 50 megs, is optional but suggested if your machine can handle it.

I'm not going to switch to Dark Age of Camelot either because I like going to the beach on weekends.

Neverwinter Nights isn't anything like Dark Age - or even a MMORPG. Your post is totally irrelevent since you're comparing apples and oranges.

Actually, a lot of servers run continuous worlds on NWN, which play a little like MMORPGs. But your original point still stands.

It's Mythic ENTERTAINMENT

Story says "Mythic Studios" - the name of the company is actually Mythic Entertainment.

Yeah well

They still haven't fixed the Ranger class, so that's a dealbreaker for me. One of the few examples I can think of where a class was nerfed almost immediately and hasn't been usable in years since.

What the hell are you on? Since new frontiers archers have been overpowered and as a result there are far too many of them.

If it's free,

Then why am I paying their programmers on a monthly basis for CS, content, and the occasional upgrade?

I've always liked Mythic

They treat customers like people, rather than disposable tissues. I don't play DAoC any more because I simply didn't have the time, but it was really fun. I would start again in a heartbeat if it wouldn't kill my grades.
