Today's streaming preview will be composed entirely of features and areas from the new expansion, played by the developers themselves. The presentation will last about an hour and will be streamed entirely from the Xfire site, so no need to rapidly re-install Xfire if you're looking to watch. Just go to the page at a little before 3 PM, watch the video, and chat live with other viewers.
If you can't make it, don't feel like you're missing out! We'll be putting up a synopsis of what went on in the presentation after it ends to keep you in the loop. So don't fear, we've got your backs!

I wasn't able to watch this preview but can anyone tell me if they are doing anything to make travel faster? The main reason I unsubbed is I got bored to death of running back and forth, back and forth from quests, back to town and from town to town. It was way too slow and tedious. The Path of Asura skill recharge was too long so that didnt help much and I didnt get to level 40 to buy a mount because I just couldnt take it anymore.

New mounts, but nothing about fast travel unfortunately. And the playfield they demo'd looked huge...

Watched it. The graphics are amazing. They showed some lush green plains, misty marshes, a forest with red trees and grass, some towns and caves. Beautiful stuff.

Watched it. Wasn't impressed because it was just more of the same of what AoC already got right. Mounts and graphics. The game doesn't have issues in these departments. It has issues in gameplay and reasons for doing all that running back and forth.
What I wanted to see is the new alternate advancement stuff, but they didn't even mention that. Matter of fact, the whole demo about put me to sleep.

I think it was a great video. FC's communication is much better now and this open-ness proves it.
This was only a beta showing one mount, one playfield and that was it... chill (@Bryan) it will all be there.
I am waiting for the 10.6 patch with guild renown and ARENAS!!! (which also allow you to spectate)
Least Aoc is moving in the right direction, onwards. :)
