So far I'm enjoying playing a mage. It's a nice break from WoW to say the least.

Just got the message: You have played for 1 hours. Please take a break for your health.

Bought the preorder. There a server most FOH folks are on for these weekends?

Edit: Must find torrent. 30kbs download speed fails.

Edit2: No torrent worth a damn but this link from the previous page is much faster.

Traldan · 07-31-2009, 04:09 PM

Waiting on my download. Think a lot of people from my guild are rolling on Zikel.

Tagwen · 07-31-2009, 05:15 PM

Is there any particular reason to play this beta weekend instead of just playing on the Chinese servers like I have been for the past week?

Dandai · 07-31-2009, 05:26 PM

Is there any way in the low levels to get more bag space?

someone dumped the chineese client on usenet, was up and rolling in 2 hours to try it out without having to wait for the weekends or preorder.

Yeah fuck Aion's patcher speeds. Downloading the link on the previous page, hopefully that's what I need to play.

Functionally there's no difference. It's just a matter of do you want to group with guys who speak Chinese with weird names or do you want to group with guys who speak English with stupid names.

Please note that speaking English does not mean you actually want them to talk however. You know those annoying bastards that won't shut up about their newborn kid and frequently afk to go look at his poop? Yeah, make sure you add "Parents of newborns not included" when looking for a tank.

There's a cube vendor in the first village you get to. Gives you 8? more spaces.

Inventory space is retardedly limited in this game. Makes extended grind sessions annoying especially when you're carrying a bunch of pvp pots.

Lol, that one got me. I *ALWAYS* get the newborn guy (or girl) in my group. WHY WHY WHY?

Fuck this video. Fuck this thread. If I knew less about the game, I could order it, have fun for a couple months, then rage quit when I realize how big a part PVP plays in the end game.

As it is, I'm loving what I'm seeing pve wise, enjoyed the Chinese OB I played. But I'm not down with spending box price plus a couple months subs knowing I'll hit a point where I'm logging in just so some Zektard can shove his axe up my ass while I'm fighting something else.

Yeah, scripted encounters are much more enjoyable than the dynamic gameplay of PvP.

Brikker · 07-31-2009, 06:12 PM

So...don't buy and play a pvp game?

Sharmai · 07-31-2009, 06:13 PM

Look at it this way. If you play this game for more then a couple weeks then you will already have gotten your monies worth when compared to today's single player games.

Aphextwin · 07-31-2009, 07:02 PM

Played an hour so far, looks amazing on my system and runs flawlessly.

Couple of questions, looked but could not find any options.

Is there an option to turn off the voice when casting any spell?

If you hold the right mouse button you can pan your view, is there an option somewhere so I can have the same functionality with the left mouse button?

Is there an option to turn off sticky targeting? As in if I click on the ground my target is cleared?
