AO is the main topic, but you can also talk about things like the latest console game you've played, web comics, movies, music, etc. as they pertain to your AO experience.

The last patch has made my graphics card go berserk.
Anytime I'm in a team (lots of screen action) I get massive lagging, and to boot, my graphics card shuts down AO.
It has been happening much more frequently since the new patch, and I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Or know how to fix it.
If in team and active, with fighting, helaing, buffs, etc. I can sometimes play for 1hour, then LD, but more often than not, I LD within 20 minutes or so.
Please help
the bug

There are several intense graphic actions you can shut down in F10->Enviroment->Effects. I'd advice against shuting down Nanoeffects tho (altho one of most demanding one), since you won't be able to see which mob is calmed, rooted, etc..)

There have been some recent problems with the 'Enviromental Effects'... Try shutting that down.

Don't make me come in there and Moderate you!
