Just started playing tonight on my laptop. AMD Athlon 64 3200+, 512 Memory, Mobility Radeon 9000.
Something that is confusing me, and my flatmate says shouldn't happen (he is the one that introduced me to it) is that my walking/running speed changes randomly. I can't find any pattern to it, even though I've tried. I'll be walking in a straight line, and I'll be at what seems to be a 'normal' running speed, then suddenly it'll slow right up. It's very odd. Even the animations are slowed down (but I'm guessing the animations are linked to the movement speed).
Does anyone have any advice? The ping was averaging about 100 (even got as low as 8 sometimes) with no lost packets that I could see.
I don't want to give up on it, this is the first time I've ever played EQ (wasn't willing to pay for it before, this is perfect) and it looks really nice from what I've seen (and with some of the movement speeds I had through the Centaur Hills, I saw alot of scenery!)
Thanks in advance,
-K
