- Bots, this problem is just ridiculous. They steal resources from actual players, they effect the economy. the other problem is, it is allowable to kill a player and loot their items, however kill a bot loot their items and get banned. So botting is encouraged. Hmm.
- Crafting is ridiculous. the amount of materials needed to craft a item is out of line. for example to craft a Scaldplate radiant chest piece you will need 152 coppers, one piece of armor. Now if you want to craft it in any rarity consider the time spent farming the materials, thats not including the other materials needed. Also the limits on apprentice, journeyman, and master are terrible.
- Stability, and lag spikes. This is unacceptable for a game that has been in development as long as this one. I understand it is a Alpha, however stability should be a number one concern. getting timed out while mining, lumberjacking, or just traveling is bad.
- Why do I have to hide my helmet, cape every time I log in, or relog because I was disconnected, timed out? Bad QOL.
These are issues that should not exist in a quality game like AOC is trying to be. There should be active in game GM's that could directly address some of these issues. I really want to like this game.
