Issues that are holding this game up

[SMarcellus]

Random crashes on the open sea, or while loading into an instance/open sea/town. Not being able to access towns/open sea/missions at random, or after having to reload. Lag issues within towns at certain areas, especially around combat style trainers.

There shouldn't be a need to reload, repatch, redo anything if all is well. I understand a new patch is forthcoming and I hope it addresses alot of these issues. And I know I'm tired of having that pirate_local.ini file and having to deal with the message that pops up in game. Is it a deal breaker, no, but it does get old. And I've updated and checked all things to do with my router and firewall. And I'll still get locked into not moving if I don't have it. So it is definitely FLS side.

You've guys have done great in addressing issues, but these are things that will drive people away. And they'll point at SOE, even if they have nothing to do with it, because of past experiences. So here's to you getting them fixed quickly
