Going to go like this

Month 1 Poor start server instability etc etc.
Month 2 Class Nerfs
Month 3 Class Balancing (a little)
Month 4 More RP gear
Month 5 Class changes
Month 6 Crafting update/ doom / god send

A typical Funcom product. (also read PVP will be broken forever)

AO was the same, AOC was the same except the devs went mental and lost the plot at the 2 year and a bit point.

Cant wait for this game, lifetime sub already purchased. It wil get slated by the WOWlings, for it being to complicated and not like WOW as WOW does it is like this and my half elf warlock ogre can do this etc etc etc.

Funcom games have given me gaming heaven for the past 8 and half years long may it continue.

fair enough, replace class with cookie cutter builds. It didnt take long for players to work out the best from the skill wheel in closed beta.

This by the way is a good thing.

I forgot I'm in the beta this weekend :) Not sure what to expect later. Seen some gameplay vids and it looks average.

Got a brand new graphics card to try out too. :D

Aaarrrrgh! I forgot that I paused the download on my desktop PC! It's already fully down on the laptop, but want it on the big rig in case the lappy can't handle it.

Time to VPN from the office and get it going again. Just hope the network guys don't notice the traffic before I'm off. :D




EDIT:

Whoop Whoop! Bombing it out of the office in 5 mins, home in time with a drink in my hand, hopefully!

Must mention, too, that the sheer number of people signed up for this must be humongous. I couldn't use ANY of my usual online gaming/username variations when signing up, a couple of which are pretty unintelligable if you ask me.

I'd be interested to know how this plays. At the outset it sounded very Shadowrun meets CoC...but somehow the gameplay footage just looked dull. I'm hoping the reports from this weekend prove me wrong!
