Not long now UK people! Bio-engineer for me since I like helping out in multiplayer games...and I will be ready IF they add 4 player co-op. :lol
Any chance we can get a big poll together to find out which classes people are playing?
I do wish there was some kind of storage because I like to horde items, just in case I need it for another character or someone I am playing co-op with. How much stuff can you carry in total?

I just ran that with my 47 berserker last night and wanted to slit my wrists. Seriously this game seems to hate berserkers, I was dieing in 3 hits from dark elves.

Just got this today in the UK. Haven't got my head around everything yet and my character looks a bit silly at the moment. I chose defender. I must say having just done the halls without dying I am really enjoying this game!

Oh and I spent most of my bounty crafting some items. Not sure if it's the kind of game I should just wait for drops but I went ahead anyway.

1/4-ish of the last level left... roughly. You're almost there.
Picked up a copy here in Aus today, I figured with so many enjoying it despite it's flaws I'll be willing to give it a go.
So far so good, Played for about 40 min, combat controls work quite well and it does not take too long before your whizzing around the screen and pulling off air combos.
Overall theme and style are quite good too, animation hurts the cut scenes but I can live with it.
looking forward to getting into the loot

Fistwell said:
awesome, hopefully I can knock it out and play some co-op this weekend. Anyone still down? I'm a 27 defender right now, will probably be around 30 once I finish.
One thing that I am increasingly annoyed by...games that DON'T PAUSE THE TIMER when the game is paused. God damn it, I have shit to do and I sometimes let the game sit for an hour...stop the clock!

Same, I hate that shit. I want to know how many hours I've logged into the game but now mine is horribly inaccurate because my girlfriends parents surprised me and took us out to lunch and I had to pause it.
Started a new Human Bio after my Cyber Bio got up to Level 42 and holy shit does the Human track shit all over the Cyber. I dont think i'll ever go Cyber for any of my future builds. Cannons arent all that great and the skills are meh. Weapon ruiners are pretty cool but suck compared to the Human class specific ruiners IMO.

Is the bioengineer all it's cracked up to be? Apparently people never die when playing one, and that would be a tremendous difference for my next play through once I'm done leveling my beserker
Just finished my first playthrough on this game last night at 1AM. I totally hate it. Buggy, laggy, annoying.
I still need to play through (at least partway) as a some other classes before writing my final review for the site where I work.
I have two pages in 10-point font in Word of notes on how awful this game is. I think the only positive things I have written down are "Environments are pretty -- love the Norse runes and imagery (crow statues, etc.)," "I like the integration of Norse mythology," and "Sometimes, combat is fun."
That Valkyrie death cutscene is pretty awesome, but after seeing it every 10 seconds in the final dungeon, I truly loathe it.

Human is combo based, more combos you do, less energy is required for ruiner attacks and battle cries. You get an access to a higher combo level. Weapons and armor are more customizable.
Cybernetic is damage based, more combos you do, more damage bonus you achieve. Gives you more health and access to cannons.
Edit - Beaten with an ugly sitck.

I did another solo run of HoH last night and picked up my second red plasma cannon from the obelisk in the first timed challenge room. The thing is a monster. I was able to walk through the rest of the level with little problem. It even made the GRNDL fight much shorter. Since its a cannon it still blows in smaller areas thanks to turning my commando into a slowski.
edit: 102 hours wtf... I have 65 to go.

Yeah, tell me about it. I'm level 20 right now with my Berserker and I thought I was going to jump off a bridge in the Ice Forest. The next area is a little better, though. The trolls just keep kicking my ass...

.....wow (O___o)
Also, didn't know you could apply colored runes to weapons themselves! ....well except the epic stuff it seems
PhatSaqs said:I dont feel so bad now with my 35
Yeah I'm at around 33hrs with my Champion now. I was still awake playing when my GF got home from night shift.
I wonder if one of the secret achievements is 'leveling all classes to 50' or 'getting an epic set for all classes'? BUt anyways, I think Too Human is now in my never ending game club. Along with Halo 3 and Rock Band, I still play at least once a week. Too Human is probably going to last me till the sequel...
Champion. I tend to go with "balanced" classes for my first playthroughs of games like this. I want to give Commando a try, since I found it easier to shoot than to melee, then Berserker and Bio Engineer. I'm not sure if I need to give Defender a try, but I might, just to see how long it can stave off the Valkyrie.

Air finisher to the front, nip around the back and hop on their back. You can even mount and kill them while they have a full energy bar as long as the central armour is gone.

Uh. You shouldn't be dying that much. I'm around level 40 with my Champion and die maybe once a level, if that. Second playthrough I didnt even die in acts 1 and 2. Early on the game is rough in some spots, but the game really picks up. Not sure you've completed it yet if you're actually dying that much still. The final dungeon, save for a certain boss was piss easy.
Are you juggling and getting your combo meters up? Shooting the explodey guys before they get to you?
I honestly want to know how someone playing a Champion can complain about the Valkyrie.

exactly
If you rolling and thinking out your combat strategy before hand, you SHOULD NOT being as much as people are reporting
I maybe die 2 times an area thus far
On my first playthrough as a Berserker, I was dying pretty regularly whenever I came to a sizable encounter (especially those that involved projectile-based enemies). As a Defender, I average one or two deaths for each level in co-op or single player, and those are usually avoidable if I would've been a little more attentive with my enemy management.
I did think this had something to do with just getting a better idea of the flow of the game and its enemies, but Aladuf still dies every 30 seconds as a Berserker, so it may truly mean that the balance is just a bit screwy. I know that playing a Defender makes me not want to try out other classes, simply because I don't want to go back to getting knocked down by trolls/spiders/missiles.

I had the same thoughts and questions. Also states he hates it yet is going to try another class... So... in other words its sorta hooked you in a way perhaps? If I hate a game, I drop it quicker then dollar bills at a stripclub.

I think there is a major difference in the reactions to this game from people who have to play the game and people who are just interested in it. He did say that he enjoyed the combat some times so maybe its growing on him. I wonder if he read all the combat tips & info in the weapon and armor shops. I had 20 hours in and didn't even know they were there. I even found a number of things about the gameplay, like the fact that the Troll's armor is more vulnerable to lasers.

Xenon said:
Yeah thats very possible. Hell I'm almost 30 hours in and still learning little things here and there. Granted the game never straight out tells you most of these things, then again, it almost seems like finding this stuff out on your own or through the help of other players was done on purpose. Only because it makes the realization of it that much more rewarding.
Then again I could see why people would hate this or other aspects of the game. Too Human is definetly not for everyone...but if you happen to fall into the "like" group. Your in for a treat.

I agree, the game does things very different. I was not a fan of the leveling but seeing how well they change up enemy type, placement, and actions as you progress it works well. My 50lvl run through HoH played much different than it did the 1st lvl and 30th level runs.

So even just getting to level 50 changes it? Even from being a level 47? Just wondering how much a difference being a few levels higher makes things. Granted I'll be there soon enough.
Having alot of fun with the game but I think I hit a major bug. Lvl 29 and just killed GARM so I decided to save and quit. Come back today and the door right near him won't open so that means I can't continue any further. Tried going to the main hub and just use mission select and that let me finish it without using the main campaign. Doing so caused me not to see any cinematics and I am still stuck there in the main campaign so I can't start a new one. Any help would be appreciated

Try perhaps jumping to Aseir and then using the pause menu to jump back into the mission and see if that helps?
