I'm not too in to pvp griefing these days but fleecing our opponents and taking their lunch money could be fun.

Hmm, okay, might try this out. Worst case scenario I play less than 2 hours and get a refund.

There are buy and sell orders for the trading post, so the trading post is your vendor for everything but junk loot (which you salvage into coins and repair points).

Even then worst case scenario is it’s just a mellow pve tree-chopping fishing sim. Anything past that is basically a bonus There’s weed in the game, and you can pick it. That’s worth $40 for me.

I think I might have just got this game for free? I pre-ordered it back when it was free, years(?) ago, and they just emailed me a steam key for the Deluxe Edition. I rather assumed that they wouldn't be honoring those once they announced it was going to be buy to play. This happen to anyone else?

I'm not a big PvPer and got 50 hours out of the closed beta without getting bored. The quests are quite rudimentary, but the world is cool, the crafting and gathering is cool, and I enjoyed the combat.

If you ordered it while it was FTP, they announced like 2 years ago that they would honor it and you'd get the full version for free. The fact that it's the deluxe edition is a nice bonus!

First got an email saying it was available for purchase. And then a follow up email shortly afterwards thanking me for my purchase with a key to the deluxe edition. I'm actually surprised because I had assumed I was only going to get the standard edition for "purchasing" it for free back then as well. I knew it would be honored because I was able to retrieve a key for closed beta play through thanks to it.

causticBeet posted:Is there any stupid, OP gear combos that I can relentlessly abuse to be as annoying as possible in PVP? Great Axe and Hatchet or Life Staff, Medium load armor. Plenty of CON. Potions are on a short cooldown, heal for a flat amount and a percentage amount. 50 CON gives you +20% more healing from potions. Great Axe has Mobility (Charge), AoE (everything) and CC (Gravity Well, Reap). Hatchet gives death invulnerability, a runspeed buff, berserk which is just a flat damage bonus and a skill that roots if you hit a target in the back. Life Staff heals, which people find incredibly annoying to deal with.

If you can log in on release just give that junk to a friend or, if you're a standard goon and don't have friends, a poor goon.

Mr. Humalong posted:I skimmed the OP so maybe I missed it, but what is it looking like this game will have for endgame content? Is it just the 20v20 Ashran/moba thing? Are there any dungeons, raids, and/or world bosses planned/designed/being tested? How are they planning to retain a playerbase once everyone has leveled to the cap? So this game was originally a sandbox PVP game but they listened to their testers and changed it to a standard PvE MMO with strong PvP elements. The issue is that that was about 2 years ago so they've been playing catch up on the PvE side and it shows. There is a decent mix of dungeons(called 'expeditions", there were six at last count) and various flavors of outdoor encounters/invasions but it's definitely a work in progress. The good news is they've actually made an insane amount of progress even from May and I expect content to keep rolling out heavily into the spring. IMO you will definitely get your $40 worth even if you don't PvP in the slightest.

I love this game so far, and down with everyone saying that it sucks. For those of you considering playing, it has the feel of the MMO's of our childhoods but with a modern active combat system. It's fun. Come play.

Yeah I wouldn't say it's terrible but I feel like this has a high probability of running out of fun/content when you get to max level. They seem to be relying on PvP to fill the gap and that seems like a crapshoot at best. However the combat is fun as hell, the world is beautiful and immersive, and imo you'll get more than your money's worth out of leveling through it once even if the endgame is a giant stinker. Edit: And Bezos has infinity bucks and this is Amazon's first game that has a hint of success around it. IMO they'll spend the GDP of a small nation to fix it up as they go. Whether they succeed with their fixes is another story but I wouldn't worry about this becoming abandonware anytime soon! Hakarne fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Sep 28, 2021 |

PVP is really only good at sustaining an end game when it has player controlled territories and such systems to support the sort of nationalism-role play that comes out of games like eve and Albion - would be cool if this gets there eventually. Barring that, neat sandbox-lite mmo to poo poo around in with friends for a few weeks sounds alright too!

They do seem to have some fun systems from the start and the game is set to be extremely popular out of the gate. I wonder how they’ll choose to support it going forward.

I had the same thing, checked my Amazon digital library and apparently signed up in 2017 for it. Wasnt gonna buy it, cuz I've been so into GW2 lately, and I didn't love the alpha, but free is the perfect price to pay to check it out.
