Mythos (beta) NeoGAF Guild

They took away invites partly from updating their site and partly from inching close to an open beta. They haven't given an ETA on that however.

I'm desperately trying to get in to this.
I knew nothing of it until the 1Up Show last week... and I go to the site to find that I can't play. Damn Shawn for not telling us about it until we can't get hold of it! :'(

I've decided to play Fallout (Not the same I know... but it kinda almost looks like it could be) instead.

I finally (after being in the beta for a long time) made a bloodletter a week ago (completely forget the name!) and played for a bit then got distracted, but I was having fun! Woudl certainly have more fun with people rather than by myself. I keep meaning to play more but keep getting distracted more.

Questions I have that maybe someone here can answer!

1) How is the PvP? It sounds nice but I have no idea how it actually plays out.
2) Is the hard mode (elite or whatever, the one without permadeath) so hard that I should avoid it until I get used to the game?
3) And while on that subject, can I change difficulty eventually, ala Diablo, or am I stuck with what I pick for all time with that character?
 
Anyway to check your character's stats on the site? I haven't logged in for such a while I don't even have the client anymore and I can't download it until next week.

so could anyone make a video or take screenshots, of the new WASD controls and wow-style camera?


This is my most anticipated game... I tried endlessly to get into beta(like so many others):( but.. Im just dying to see how the WASD controls work and the camera.


can you use the third person camera, to see every aspect of your character close up, like in wow... where you can take the camera 360 degrees around the character and zoom in and stuff?


how is the character customization? how many faces, hairstyles and stuff?


what about pvp? is there pvp? duels?
 
expect some free crap being sent to you guys. I've got too much loot, so I'll be sending them at random. Also, Tekno is managing the guild cause Flagship's dumbass clan support only allows one guild master and no subordinates to invite others.

yeah, the clan system is pretty bare bones. I didn't even realize I got invited until after I logged on a couple of times and just happen to notice a line of text in the chat stating I did.

To all the people looking for invites, I read on their forums they might bring back invites for a stress test before the open beta, so cross your fingers...

Too bad I never activated my beta invite when I had the chance. I've had the invite for like 2 months now...just sitting in my e-mailbox. :lol

No one ever answered my questions! D:

And I have another! (Since I still haven't had a chance to play again.)

There are only three classes available at the moment (is that going to change?). How different can the classes end up come endgame, based on how you distribute the skill points?

The main website would probably be able to answer those better than any of us. That and I dont think anyone would know about endgame stuff yet since they're still in the process of adding things/revamping things.

Not the PvP question, at least. That's more of a "how does it feel" not "what is involved" question.

I figured some people had been playing long enough to at least give a fair assessment of how much classes diverge as they gain more skill points. Again, that's more of a "how does it feel" question. Oftentimes games claim to have a million different skills but they all feel the same. 's where my question comes from. d:

Also the difficulty question! D:

You're right about the third question, though. It's just easier to ask than it is to dig through a bunch of information for one tiny detail.

Well as far as what i've seen from the support forums over there, they're still working on PVP. No class complaints, but basically complaints that there isnt any "point" to it yet. So now they're trying to come up with new PVP style ideas.

That and PVE story based ideas with cutscenes and whatnot.

Just got done playing a few hours. It feels a like Diablo mixed with a little bit of WoW without the production values. It's an interesting combination and I wonder how much it will change over the course of the beta. Definitely worth playing, even more so since it's free.
 
Falonto / MrPing1000 / Bloodletter


Going to make him a melee aoe specialist I think.

Got a purple item very early on, an awessssome ring.

I just got the invite last night and played for a few hours this morning, it's very fun.

If you've ever played a videogame in your life I recommend elite over normal. It at least provides a semblance of a challenge. Lots of more baddies on screen to fuck up. And the bosses actually take some time/effort to drop.

I dunno, even on normal, those bosses can take you out fast if you arent prepared.

Also Teknoman is my character name so add to friends list. That and im still waiting on the guild invite :lol

Made a gremlin gadgeteer tonight. Sunglasses and lit cigar, I remind myself of Emp from the old 90's comic book WildC.A.T.S.

Completely addicted to this game and have let WoW slack because of it.

You gotta be REALLY unprepared if bosses are taking you down on normal.

I'm level 13 and I regularly solo Tinus on elite with my Gadgeteer, and I take little (if any) damage while doing it.

I'm lvl 6 with my new bloodletter and I can't defeat Kindler, who's lvl 7. He's ripping me a new asshole and I can only take 1/4 of his life from him.

Bloodletters generally have the hardest time soloing the big'ns because you have to get very personal with them to deal damage (who in turn get their large, sharp and/or pointed objects very personal with your bum).

Part of the trade, I s'pose.


I just run in circles and spam hordes of boom zippers. :lol

I would stand a chance if I could get four of his lackies down before he attacked me and can summon four bloodlings to help out.

Really, the bloodlings do half the work for me, if not more.

I'd definitely like an invite to the GAF guild

Reun/Rogosh/Bloodletter


As for taking care of bosses/large groups as a bloodletter, i've taken the rather backwords approach of keeping a ranged weapon as my second weapons set to kill/weaken the enemies before they get close with my sword/shield (bloodlings ftw).

Yeah, that sounds like a nice idea.

I was DWing a gun and sword for a while, too, which was nice. I should DW a pair of guns and have a 2h weapon as my secondary for when they get too close.

OKAY. I've settled on a build. My character is now named Novono (fucking stupid that can't respec on elite).

I'm a 15 gadgeteer atm. If you want levelled up super quick catch me when I'm online and I'd be happy to run you through some epics with me.
