This game is so terrible...there is nothing about it unique, nothing done rather well, and is more irritating than fun.

Is it just me or does it seem like the creators of this game just took fallout 3, changed the name, made it crappy and decided to try and bank off of it.

Now, before anyone thinks I'm just some n00bie wanting to pick a game and flame it, let me justify why i say this.

1.) Graphics- I personally could care less about graphics...the content makes the game, not the way the game looks. (thats why i played anarchy online for 5 years)

2.) FPS- First person shooter....don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of FPS's...but only when they are done right...half the time when you shoot somebody in this game, regardless of if you shoot them in the body or the head, it tells you that it just glanced off of it....yeah...that makes sense...*fires crossbow from 5 feet away into someones chest* good thing that glanced off.....FAIL

3.) Story- at the beginning I thought it was rather interesting, but once you got out of the tutorial part, anything that could have been considered a story line just died.

4.) PVP- Just plain annoying! level 1 can get killed by level 40? really? thats stupid...NEXT

5.) Environment- let me sum up the entire map in roughly 5 words...

       1.) Sand

       2.) Cactus

       3.) Random useless town

       4.) Random canyon     

       5.) more sand....

6.) Crafting- Why does this game do nothing but shove crafting on you it seems like? Want a better weapon? Craft it. Want better armor? Craft it. Some people don't like crafting....in fact some people consider it annoying and extremely boring.

7.) Lag- ...FAIL

8.) Mutations- LAME

9.) Skills- Does rather well with this...except for the combat skills...

             1.) Melee- You may learn how to use a Hammer affectively, but try that hammer bull crap with a sword or a dagger and                    your gonna get your head cut off...most likely by yourself.. NOT ALL MELEE WEAPONS ARE USED THE SAME WAY   

             2.) Pistols and rifles- If your going to combine weapon types into one category these are the ones that should be                                   combined, both of them = point+shoot....

10.) Community- Every single person that i came in contact with in this game seemed like giant *** holes. Seriously, asked one question in the "Help" channel regarding the reloading hot key, the answer i got is "Really? you are really asking that? The stupid people are out today, wow...."

11.) Movement- Why the hell do i strife at under half the speed that i move? That annoyed the crap out of me.

12.) Quests- go here kill X or Y, or Collect X of Y, Defend this area by killing all of Y

This game is just full of so much fail...I DON'T RECCOMEND ANYONE PLAY THIS GAME...for $50...if i would have know how this game actually was....I would have spent the money on something more useful...like a tank of gas and a lighter to burn this company down with.

And you created an account with this as your first post to say this?

can you say loser troll?

Oh, and your written skills are terrible.

 i did enjoy the game, but i partially agree with him... 

i like crafting, but not too often...., but in this game im nearly being forced to craft lol

Read through your post.

Sorry, dont think you played the game, more of a critique from someone who watched a couple utube posts. Maybe you played, but frankly it doesnt sound like you did.

So he's automatically a troll just because he stated his opinions over a game? Just because this is his first post?

I understand you like the game and that's your choice. You don't see me jumping down your throat and do some name-callin', do you?

I personally didn't like the game and I know I'm not a troll. Thanks :) 

Grow up, btw.

Blizzard, SOE, Funcom, NCSoft...who is paying you to post this?  Not a great game, but certainly not as bad as you say.

Believe me, he has. What gives you the right to form an assumption? His "review" does imply similiar viewpoints of mine when I played that game as well. Oh noes, you're going to call me out on it and say I was just watching youtube videos!!!.. /facepalm!

It sounds like he played from level 1->3 at the most.  It's a pity, too, because Sector 2 and Sector 3 are amazing.

But hey, I doubt anyone will miss him, if he's that upset about several small things (He's wrong on half of his post, so I'm choosing to ignore all that).

I never called them a name. I just dont think they played the game.

This looks like a laundry list cobbled together from every single gripe that has appeared on this forum.

See my post above. His critique is vague to the point of obtuse, he hits the areas that are general gripes but it comes off as if he's rehashing gripes not pulling froma personal experiance. That is my opinion though, I said maybe he did it SOUNDS like he hasn't.

Why do you care so much?

I think he has a double account  and wanted to play devils advocate.

Now, before anyone thinks I'm just some n00bie wanting to pick a game and flame it, let me justify why i say this.

 

1.) Graphics- I personally could care less about graphics...the content makes the game, not the way the game looks. (thats why i played anarchy online for 5 years) <=== then why mention it?

2.) FPS- First person shooter....don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of FPS's...but only when they are done right...half the time when you shoot somebody in this game, regardless of if you shoot them in the body or the head, it tells you that it just glanced off of it....yeah...that makes sense...*fires crossbow from 5 feet away into someones chest* good thing that glanced off.....FAIL <==== Dodge skill, try using a real weapon and learning to play.

3.) Story- at the beginning I thought it was rather interesting, but once you got out of the tutorial part, anything that could have been considered a story line just died. <===== you have to read the quests for that

4.) PVP- Just plain annoying! level 1 can get killed by level 40? really? thats stupid...NEXT <==== yeah thats how these things work usually. Is it that hard to understand?

5.) Environment- let me sum up the entire map in roughly 5 words...

       1.) Sand

       2.) Cactus

       3.) Random useless town

       4.) Random canyon     

       5.) more sand.... <==== Maybe when you're south of oilville, 

6.) Crafting- Why does this game do nothing but shove crafting on you it seems like? Want a better weapon? Craft it. Want better armor? Craft it. Some people don't like crafting....in fact some people consider it annoying and extremely boring. <==== they have AHs and weapon merchants. Buy it from someone else.  I've never crafted on my melee char.

7.) Lag- ...FAIL <====== Your problem, not mine, 

8.) Mutations- LAME <===== in comparison to what other game? No reason? LAME

9.) Skills- Does rather well with this...except for the combat skills...

             1.) Melee- You may learn how to use a Hammer affectively, but try that hammer bull crap with a sword or a dagger and                    your gonna get your head cut off...most likely by yourself.. NOT ALL MELEE WEAPONS ARE USED THE SAME WAY   <==== why would you expect them to be? different weapons give different stats and abilities.

             2.) Pistols and rifles- If your going to combine weapon types into one category these are the ones that should be                                   combined, both of them = point+shoot.... <===== but they aren't, because they each have different abilities.

10.) Community- Every single person that i came in contact with in this game seemed like giant *** holes. Seriously, asked one question in the "Help" channel regarding the reloading hot key, the answer i got is "Really? you are really asking that? The stupid people are out today, wow...."  <===== the community is the best in the genre right now.  Who's got a better one?  With an attitude like you're giving us here, I can clearly see why people probably wouldn't be nice to you.

11.) Movement- Why the hell do i strife at under half the speed that i move? That annoyed the crap out of me. <===== can you run sideways at the same speed you run forward?  Go ahead and try, I'll wait.

12.) Quests- go here kill X or Y, or Collect X of Y, Defend this area by killing all of Y  <==== and thats different then other MMOs how?  If you read the quests you'd see some missions give you choices on what to kill, what to buy, what to craft, etc.

This game is just full of so much fail...I DON'T RECCOMEND ANYONE PLAY THIS GAME...for $50...if i would have know how this game actually was....I would have spent the money on something more useful...like a tank of gas and a lighter to burn this company down with.  <====== Can you give me the rest of your chips?

You can go through any single haters post on here and read the same exact things with the same exact non-descriptive information on the same round about items.  Not one thing about his post said much more then  This is a feature, and I didn't like it.

If you felt the same way, thats fine, I'm not here to police your feelings, but without any reason why its all supposition on our end whether or not you actually know what you're talking about.  For all we know that could be your alt account. Personally I don't care. 

I'm very used to you guys being uptight over people's opinions on your favorite games. I've been on this site for a long time and this is all I see.. Different people coming in, making posts on a variety of games, talking about the OP and call eachother trolls. In my opinion, this will never end. Everyone has different perspectives on games. No one is the favorite nor the underdog. So get over it.

Calling me a moron shows everyone that you're really one. Funny thing is I'm the rational one in this.

Hey pysmon15, just ignore the insults and stick with what you feel. The game isn't for everyone, so hope you find a game that is suitable & enjoyable for yourself. :) That's what I'm doing. Although I don't make reviews on any games because "gamers" themselves cannot dish any truth I display. It's obvious in this thread.  You got the balls ;) Cheers!

By truth I assure you, you mean opinion.  As this was his opinion, you have yours.  I'm not trying to tell you what to like or dislike, I'm just asking you explain.  What did he say that you found, personally Wh0astar to be a "truth"?   Honestly, no bullshit, I'd like to know.

Oo Didn't expect my post to get this many responses this quick.

ok, lets begin...

1.) I assure you, I do not have another account to make random posts on my previous forum post(s).

2.) Gonna be honest, didn't play past level 3, but if you can't hold the players interest for the first 5 levels even, how are you going to keep them later on? Imo, the first couple levels are the most important, because lets face it, when you test a new MMO, your not going to go to max level before you realize "this game blows"

3.) I appreciate the person who did the run through of what first wrote, addressing each issue. I didn't go through the mutations for the simple fact that there was nothing unique about them, thus making them receive the title lame.

4.) community, with the reactions of this post thus far, do i even need to argue about my opinion about nearly everyone being asinine? Honestly, I'm getting flamed for this being my 1st post (on this forum) ffs, i'm suprised I haven't been told to L2P yet or QQ....

Last comment about this game, I don't disagree that this game has potential, but thus far, it's nothing more than a great game (fallout 3)  that got changed into an MMO and downgraded from "AMAZING" to *shrug*. 

We dont see much trolls on this forum so it's ok, I can live with someone spewing nonesense once in a while that nobody will take seriously anyway.

I preffer that he kicks his cat when the nerdrage kicks in but whatever.

I'll say this though,I think the reason we dont see many trolls is because of Aion.

I cant tell you how glad I am that Aion and FE launched at same time.

All the tards went there and atm are busy trolling eachother so not much time for other game's forums.

And that's awesome for us.

This is also one of the many reasons why FE comunity is most mature I've seen.

All the kiddies went to play Aion heh.

Aion and Darkfall, thank god for both of those. It does keep the trolls down.

I usually don't get into debates like this, but going to have to agree with you.

When I see a New Member with only 1 to 5 posts under their belt on this website, I dont even bother reading.

I can say I never created a account on any website forum to just to bash a game or praise one either.

Opinions are fine but there is a lot of misleading information in the OP's post.  e.g.

* I use FPS a lot in the game and continously get head shots because....I shoot the head... glance shot means you can't aim

* terrain varies so I wonder if you have traveled much.  Besides you buy a post apoc game and wonder why its barren and harsh? did you expect waterfalls with lilly's?

* Lag - personal thing but its hardly an issue for most

* Crafting is not necessary and although its very useful you could just sell all your loot, components and buy off the AH. I have gone 2 weeks without crafting and made tons of cash.  Besides how can it be boring when you turn a recipe on and you can still do what you want?

* community - I wonder if its your attitude because its the most mature community I have played in, maybe besides EVE.  Help has people constantly answering questions and I even get private messages when posting for help.  Not to mention GM's online most of the time. 

Not all Melee weapons are used the same way?  Why is that an issue?  I have gone from 2h to 2x1h and it is different, I think that is a good thing.

Rifle and pistol = point and shoot?  well yea they are guns!  Besides they do vary and they offer different options such as scope, 2 pistols or 1 pistol and 1 melee vs 1 rifle.  You can fire either on horse back but only pistol while driving vehicle.  Range etc etc. 

OK you didn't like the game but the thread is a bit over the top and as mentioned above, pretty misleading.  The game is packed full of players loving the game so it seems people who have your opinion are definitely in the minority

Is it just me or does it seem like the creators of this game just took fallout 3, changed the name, made it crappy and decided to try and bank off of it.

Now, before anyone thinks I'm just some n00bie wanting to pick a game and flame it, let me justify why i say this.

 

1.) Graphics- I personally could care less about graphics...the content makes the game, not the way the game looks. (thats why i played anarchy online for 5 years)

2.) FPS- First person shooter....don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of FPS's...but only when they are done right...half the time when you shoot somebody in this game, regardless of if you shoot them in the body or the head, it tells you that it just glanced off of it....yeah...that makes sense...*fires crossbow from 5 feet away into someones chest* good thing that glanced off.....FAIL

3.) Story- at the beginning I thought it was rather interesting, but once you got out of the tutorial part, anything that could have been considered a story line just died.

4.) PVP- Just plain annoying! level 1 can get killed by level 40? really? thats stupid...NEXT

5.) Environment- let me sum up the entire map in roughly 5 words...

       1.) Sand

       2.) Cactus

       3.) Random useless town

       4.) Random canyon     

       5.) more sand....

6.) Crafting- Why does this game do nothing but shove crafting on you it seems like? Want a better weapon? Craft it. Want better armor? Craft it. Some people don't like crafting....in fact some people consider it annoying and extremely boring.

7.) Lag- ...FAIL

8.) Mutations- LAME

9.) Skills- Does rather well with this...except for the combat skills...

             1.) Melee- You may learn how to use a Hammer affectively, but try that hammer bull crap with a sword or a dagger and                    your gonna get your head cut off...most likely by yourself.. NOT ALL MELEE WEAPONS ARE USED THE SAME WAY   

             2.) Pistols and rifles- If your going to combine weapon types into one category these are the ones that should be                                   combined, both of them = point+shoot....

10.) Community- Every single person that i came in contact with in this game seemed like giant *** holes. Seriously, asked one question in the "Help" channel regarding the reloading hot key, the answer i got is "Really? you are really asking that? The stupid people are out today, wow...."

11.) Movement- Why the hell do i strife at under half the speed that i move? That annoyed the crap out of me.

12.) Quests- go here kill X or Y, or Collect X of Y, Defend this area by killing all of Y

This game is just full of so much fail...I DON'T RECCOMEND ANYONE PLAY THIS GAME...for $50...if i would have know how this game actually was....I would have spent the money on something more useful...like a tank of gas and a lighter to burn this company down with.

We wont miss you. And this game is worth the $50 dollars.

Dont let your 1 post hit you on the way out.

 2) Sorry, this has never happened to me.... It only glances when I hit them in the arm or leg.

3) I'm not sure, I haven't followed the story. It may die out.

4) Wow.... uh.... troll much?

5) Let me explain:

Grand Canyon

6) I don't craft and I get by fine. I even use a crap load of heavy rifle ammo and buy new armor and rifles quite regularly. You don't HAVE to craft by any means and it's not hard to get by without doing it.

7) Yes, there is lag. Agreed

8) I don't use them. I do agree the effects I have seen are lame, is the system itself lame? Not really, no.

9) It's called "Game Mechanics" they are more important than realism.

10) Well, did you try hitting.... oh.... "R"? for Reload? Whoever asks that question deserves the answer. Try SOMETHING before asking. Maybe open the options and check.

11) So you're telling me you can so a crab-step as fast as you run? It also makes the game a bit more strategic I think as you can't just strafe in a circle and shoot.

12) Yep. I agree.

I find it fun.

Is it just me or does it seem like the creators of this game just took fallout 3, changed the name, made it crappy and decided to try and bank off of it.

It's just you.

Now, before anyone thinks I'm just some n00bie wanting to pick a game and flame it, let me justify why i say this.

K

 

1.) Graphics- I personally could care less about graphics...the content makes the game, not the way the game looks. (thats why i played anarchy online for 5 years)

AO ftw. FE graphics fit the setting.

2.) FPS- First person shooter....don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of FPS's...but only when they are done right...half the time when you shoot somebody in this game, regardless of if you shoot them in the body or the head, it tells you that it just glanced off of it....yeah...that makes sense...*fires crossbow from 5 feet away into someones chest* good thing that glanced off.....FAIL

It's an MMO not a pure FPS shooter.

3.) Story- at the beginning I thought it was rather interesting, but once you got out of the tutorial part, anything that could have been considered a story line just died.

Pure fail on your part for actually wanting a story to lead you around a mmo.

4.) PVP- Just plain annoying! level 1 can get killed by level 40? really? thats stupid...NEXT

New to MMOs? 

5.) Environment- let me sum up the entire map in roughly 5 words...

       1.) Sand

       2.) Cactus

       3.) Random useless town

       4.) Random canyon     

       5.) more sand....

Because in the four plus years we've been following this game the devs never once said the game is in that type of environment? read up on a game first.  Useless towns? random Canon? why? because you need to be lead everywhere with a nice reward waiting for you for it to be worth something?

6.) Crafting- Why does this game do nothing but shove crafting on you it seems like? Want a better weapon? Craft it. Want better armor? Craft it. Some people don't like crafting....in fact some people consider it annoying and extremely boring.

PLay another game, FE is 99% crafted items get over it.

7.) Lag- ...FAIL

Replace the five year old PC you have I only have slight lag on sundays due to full quest hubs.

8.) Mutations- LAME

Why? 

9.) Skills- Does rather well with this...except for the combat skills...

             1.) Melee- You may learn how to use a Hammer affectively, but try that hammer bull crap with a sword or a dagger and                    your gonna get your head cut off...most likely by yourself.. NOT ALL MELEE WEAPONS ARE USED THE SAME WAY   

             2.) Pistols and rifles- If your going to combine weapon types into one category these are the ones that should be                                   combined, both of them = point+shoot....

No

10.) Community- Every single person that i came in contact with in this game seemed like giant *** holes. Seriously, asked one question in the "Help" channel regarding the reloading hot key, the answer i got is "Really? you are really asking that? The stupid people are out today, wow...."

Ummm No

11.) Movement- Why the hell do i strife at under half the speed that i move? That annoyed the crap out of me.

WHat do you not understand about the concept of a MMO. This is not a Fps shooter.

12.) Quests- go here kill X or Y, or Collect X of Y, Defend this area by killing all of Y

Again welcome to mmos.

This game is just full of so much fail...I DON'T RECCOMEND ANYONE PLAY THIS GAME...for $50...if i would have know how this game actually was....I would have spent the money on something more useful...like a tank of gas and a lighter to burn this company down with.

No.
