I downloaded the 1.5gb monster simply because...hell it's free. Anyone else want to give it a try? I've heard some good things about it. (it's multiplayer only, AFAIK)

The first got a parade when it was released. I saw it on CNN for crying outloud. It wasn't that great of a game though. I mean graphically it was amazing, but character development left something to be desired.

I did like the donkeys!


Post the link to download it dude.

It's for public consumption now, but you still have to deal with the regular old Fileplanet BS.

And yes, the first was meh.

 

[galeninjapan]

Fileplanet is full of grabage and i refuse to sign up. Im sure there is a torrent somwhere.

What do you think of it so far? Are there classes and races now?

 

[Xenon]

can you play the game with a joystick? I hate using a mouse for everything but fps

Last week I downloaded it, played for an hour, quit, uninstalled.

Last week I downloaded it, played for an hour, quit, uninstalled.

Like most sane people do.

 

[galeninjapan]

The first one had alot of groundbreaking ideas. No load times, no classes, you can control multiple parties etc.. However its main fault is that it wasnt made by Blizzard

 

[Teknopathetic]

Yeah, there's different races and classes.

Brandon F: what'd you have a problem with? Did you play multiplayer with others or just by yourself?

 

[Gattsu25]

does the single player portion of the beta expire at a certain date?

 

[Teknopathetic]

There is no single player, the only option available is multiplayer (I was asking brandon if he simply played the multiplayer part by himself).

 

[Brandon F]

I pretty much played multiplayer with a few strangers and we all kinda did our own thing. People kept logging and joining as I played, but I may as well have been going solo.

My biggest problem is that the game was brutally dull and inuintuitive, control and combat particularly felt clunky. I played through a chunk of that forest area(after clicking through insane amounts of exposition dialogue) and pretty much straight up quit after getting killed a few fights in. Didn't help that the engine and world looked very inadequate for a 2005 PC game.

I really didn't spend much time on it though, but that introductory hour left a pretty forgettable impression. Maybe it gets better, I just didn't care.
