    Played the beta a bit. The PvP is pretty fun but I never really got hooked on it. Maybe just bad memories from Global Agenda getting in the way =P

    Woah that some horrible music, needs 100% more game audio and 100% less music. Anyways, looks fun but incredibly buggy (no pun intended).

    its funny that you think the game looks buggy? the game has almost no bugs whatsoever

    especialy compaired to NS2 a full page and half of bugs

    not to mention the game engine pulls me a bout 125 fps - the same rig in NS2 gets me about 30 fps

    i think ur maybe jealous?

    "a full page and half of bugs" is a terrible metric when it comes to assessing the bugginess of a software product.

    Just got my beta invite for this, after about a year of waiting.

    Fun? Definitely.
    Tedious? A bit.
    Confusing? YES.

    A tutorial isn't high on the beta to-do list of course, but figuring out basic functions (switching between active calldowns, accepting group invites, LEAVING groups, how to use the glider system) tended toward obfuscated at best, and ass-backward most of the time. Not an issue for those who have been playing for the last year, but newbies are left grasping and trying random things, or asking in Zone chat and more often than not getting trolled or insulted.

    Also disliking some of the frame balance issues. Medic (biotech) is excellent, as shooting things gives a self-heal that lets you pretty much tank anything you want, and the higher starting health (second only to the tanking class.. and the difference is only 1200/1400hp) doesn't hurt. Add on a shotgun secondary fire function, a secondary weapon grenade launcher with on-contact primary fire, and timer-delayed secondary fire, and you're ready to rock socks.
    Recon is almost useless, with a sniper rifle that does about as much damage as a single medic shotgun blast, with a HUGE cooldown and ridiculous reload time. The secondary is a SMG that functions almost the same as the Medic primary, but with no shotgun blast.. instead opting for screen-blocking ironsights on the secondary. Also 200 less health, and the same movement speed. Might get better at higher tiers, but actually getting there would be next to impossible.

    There are no 'go to X' missions linking you between mission hub areas; it relies on you just deciding to wander off into the wilderness to find the next area. Finding missions is next to impossible, leaving players just running around and dropping Thumpers for something to do, as far as I've been able to find, with discovery of a new SIN point occasionally granting one or two (chained) missions, but no random merc work available (yet, that I can find).

    I have no idea what half of that means. What is the game even? I thought this was a multiplayer pvp game, but you make it sound like it's got a pve focus.

    It is, from my understanding, an actual MMO, ie, Open world, non-instanced, PvE, questing, etc. There is also a PvP element that is more like Global Agenda. (Again, all just my understanding).

    It's primarily PvE, with instanced PvP arenas and a duel system for open-world PvP combat. Which isn't to say it's easy; there are a number of in-world events which require spontaneous LARGE groups to overcome (Chosen dropship raids are a good example, with phased combat and required target objectives while spawning waves of enemies need to be suppressed at the same time).

    Most of the monster/critter AI is pretty decent when it comes to combat (certain enemies swarm, others will 'hunt' you using cover and rushing out to attack) but most of the AI human opponents are... frankly quite stupid at the moment. Clearly just placeholder AI that can barely shoot or walk at you in a straight line.

    You have me confused. Why on earth, in anyway shape or form, would that make anyone the slightest, littlest bit jealous? I dont understand.....







    Anyway, looks like a fun game I might have to check it out sometime, but looks like is a smaller, less well done version of planet side.
