Camelot State of the Game

Mythic Entertainment’s Mark Jacobs made another “State of the Game” news posting on the Camelot Herald, bringing Dark Age of Camelot players up to speed on what changes to expect in the next few months with the basic game and how the expansion is coming along. A teaser:


    In regards to SI, work is proceeding extremely well. As we have reported on the Camelot Herald, the frame rate improvement resulting from the latest version of NDL’s graphic engine is astonishing. With all the other graphical improvements we are making to the game, I expect that our players will be thrilled with the upgrade from that aspect alone. However, that is not enough for us. Lots of new content is going in and it also looks great and we are adding our first round of beta testers into the game starting this week. One other thing to keep in mind in regards to SI is even after the expansion is finished, Mythic will continue to add new content to the game, however, we will also have the advantage of using the new engine when we do so. So, think of the expansion as just the first step in Mythic’s continued upgrading and expanding of the game.

    In regards to DAoC, everything is going great. Currently we have over 250K active accounts (accounts that are LIVE and able to play the game) worldwide as we continue to grow our subscriber base. This week we hit a new worldwide high of 50K simultaneous users (not too shabby for a game that’s not even a year old eh?).
