Now I have wanted a good sci-fi game with fps and mmo features for a while and that is why I jumped at this one. Though it has some bugs now and again that you come across the main game play is good. I think it has potential as well. Most people say that DFO has good pvp because you can lose all your crap when you die but the fact is I can't tell because the skill system is so screwed up that it makes pvp frustrating because you have to be married to the game to reach a point where you can compete and do at least decent damage and that is unfortunate because there is a big lack of pve for people to enjoy untill they are at a lvl where you can have fun with pvp and go toe to toe with people and have a good time with it. Unless you are cool with macroing. I'm not into playing a game were you need to macro while afk to be competitive. It feels so boring that I would take a slow death rather than grind day and night just to compete. I need a more interesting lvling and rewarding mechanic than that. That is where I think FE does a good job and that is important to a healthy mmo as well. Now pvp is still meaning less to some in FE because you don't lose stuff. I need action not loss to enjoy pvp. Loss keeps you from enjoying pvp because you can not sustain replenishing your gear over and over. It also takes time to collect and refit with gear which is not fun and limits the amount of people that are able and willing to pvp; and is a frustration to the point that makes me reconsider my subscription. DFO is guilty of lack of pvp for this very reason I think among others. So I have been enjoying FE, but it is also interesting even to myself that I have been enjoying FE even though I play on a 6 year old rig with 3gs ddr1, a 6800gt agp card and a athlon 4000+(which is single core) which only manages to play FE at a consistent 9-10 frames per second. I really don't know why I even try but I keep coming back for more despite my obvious need to upgrade; but I still manage to get things done and have fun. I think that says a lot about the fundamental game mechanics or at least it proves I have mental health issues lol. I think they are on to something with FE though it is still not clear to me what their plans are as I'm a very new follower, I think any new content could be very good because the core game play works well. |
