  • Why I like it? Easy. Who wouldn't want an action rpg mmo where you have to stand still to attack? I mean come on....IT'S AMAZING!
  • A friend and I were discussing this earlier today. We both plan on playing, and we both want it to be something very good. But, these words summed it up best for me. This is purely in relation to the founder's packs. His words: "I own a large car manufacturer and I'm coming out with a new model in six months. It's going to…
  • The game has a launch date of "Early 2013". So no, you won't see much information before launch. If they're holding to a Q1 launch date, then this isn't beta. Not enough time to change much of anything between beta weekends and launch.
  • That's very true. My main issue is the lack of information across the board. I really, really want to buy a pack but I can't justify doing it without knowing even a few details about the game. And if these pets and items are things easily obtainable in game, then Cryptic should probably address this. Let people know that…
  • Wipes always happen after open betas. You're thinking of early access/head start programs.
  • The game is already in beta. It is not in alpha. Should check other threads, it's been in beta for a while now.
  • The problem that I see is that a few things in the founders packs aren't "cosmetic only". Have a special racial bonus in the $200 one and a pet that is combat ready. With the next tier down you get a pet that's combat ready also. Sure, it matters if those pets are worth having around for fights or not, but if they are then…
  • No, we're complaining about the fact that we have no idea what they're worth. We're complaining about the fact that someone is trying to sell us something but also saying that they haven't finalized the cost of those items, or whether they would even be for sale outside of the pack.
  • So the pets are combat....but it's not pay to win? I want to like this game, I really, really want to like this game but as we start to learn more about how they're handling it I'm beginning to doubt.
  • No, that isn't what the hate is about. The hate is about the fact that we know hardly anything about the game. The hate is about the fact that we have no idea what the true value of the items in these packs are. The hate is about the fact that we've even been told the cash store isn't finalized, which means the value of…
  • DDO's graphics are outdated, it's an incredibly old game. But as for your "traditional MMO" comment. DDO is far from it.
  • Wrong. You, sir, are incorrect. Nobody has a good idea about how the questing in The Elder Scrolls Online is going to be, which makes you wrong. It may turn out to be generic mmo fare, and it may not. And yet we know about ESO than we do about Neverwinter, which is a little strange considering the time frame in which they…
  • That's one of the problems. They're selling you $549 worth of in game items....with no way for you to know if they're worth $549 or if they're worth $20.
  • I play 2nd edition, so...feats? Who cares? Get it through your heads, this is an mmo first, and will probably barely be recognizable as d&d. Granted, an mmo that was true to d&d would only have something like a few hundred people who played it.
  • This is very misleading. I have beta tested over thirty games in the last six or seven years, and never once have I paid to do it. I didn't sit in game ignoring bugs so I could see everything in the game. I spent countless hours filling out bug reports and trying to reproduce bugs in each game. This has to do with ensuring…
  • Has nothing to do with being broke or jobless. It has to do with lack of information. As in I don't know if this is just another mmo, if it's D&D, or if it's a mix of the two. They've been tight lipped about everything, which is fine up until they start offering packs for "X" price. At that point....how do we know what…
  • The game itself is free, last I heard. You don't have to buy it, it's a free client. Your other points are exactly what I was getting at though.
  • I have an odd question. I created my account quite a while ago, at least a couple of months. Why is it that I can't post new threads? That's my first question. To answer the question in this thread, no. I don't know enough about this game to justify spending money on it. In fact, I know next to nothing about this game.…
  • Your logic might seem sound, but it's simply not the case. It's hard enough to get beta testers from the general public who actually want to test. Most simply want to play and don't take the time to report bugs, or specifically look for bugs or make suggestions that would make the game better. I've got quite a bit of…
