    For those of you who are playing the game now, what would you most like to see a patch to fix?

    One thing that is driving me batty is the way that when you're in combat mode, everything for miles around gets in on the fight and there's no way to get out of combat until you've killed them all. If you turn undead and have to chase a fleeing ghoul or zombie into a new area, you can have literally dozens of enemies to kill before you can finally get out of combat and retreat. There's got to be a way to fix this.

    So what's bugging you ?

    [​IMG] Slooooooooooow mouse :(

    And i cant find anything that can adjust its speed.


    And the better thing... ToEE is one of truly rare games that allow you to adjust refresh rate for your screen in-game. In Infinity Engine games that could be done in notepad and quite some other games had it there too.
    In-game adjustment i cannot recall to see. :)

    I'm not getting this game, for a long time anyway. That buglist grew by 4-5 pages while I was reading it!

    Larendor's Gaming Rule Number 1) Never buy a game right after it's release.

    I made an exception with ToEE and have been not gently reminded of why rule 1 exists. I suppose that I've been fortunate that CTD hasn't been much of a problem for me (I've had one crashing problem that I was able to work around).

    Most of the other problems aren't showstoppers; they are just annoying. Elven Chain, for example, is only supposed to have an AC pen of -2, not -4 and its supposed to weigh 20 lbs, not 25. Does this kill the game for me? Nah. Does a permanent Magic Weapon or Magic Vestment spell effect kill the game for me? No, but I feel like I'm cheating if I use these spells. I shouldn't have to carry such burdens.

    There are tons of similar issues in the game that simply have to be overlooked for now if you are going to have any fun playing it. Can't wait for the patch to be released!
