that's right!!!  usually the released game is worse then Beta :)

 Personally I think this game is awesome - so no Im not disappointed in the least.

I haven't decided if I will sub up yet... haven't had a chance to test the AvA... but the PVP aspects are fantastic. EVERY class is a blast and its very easy to be competitive no matter what level/gear,etc. Pretty much totally based off skill and they did a great job IMO

Yes I know... the "open world"... was never meant to be. Not the focus of the game... there's plenty of open world games out there - which has a ton of the market. This is a very unique game that you can play extemely casually if you want (don't even need to pay a sub) and you won't lose out to any disadvantage compared to other subbed players.

 Soooo. The beta is ~51 megs last I checked.... I seriously doubt we're playing the bulk of the game. I don't think any opinions can be based on this till release.

For all the ones who this is all of GA...

Didnt WoW let us beta up to...umm...Patches in Darkshire. A level 20 elite mob? I pretty sure they didn't code/add the rest during the beta.

Alright with that out of my system, think of global agenda like guild wars but with way better graphics/gameplay/combat and you probably won't be disappointed. If you're expecting exploration/crazy depth etc this game isn't for you. Saying that it is hella fun but I'm not sure i'll be doing the monthly subscription to be honest.

GO BACK TO AION!!!! PLEASE DON'T PLAY THIS GAME!!! The community at global agenda doesn't need another fanboi extremest.

Honestly - go to hell... I can play whatever I chose, anytime I want. You cant tell me otherwise.... The LAST thing we need in this game is another whiner cry baby who wants the game completely tailored to you - only to spam the forums with post after post about "how much you dislike it" and "how we're all idiots for playing a game YOU don't like'... We definitely do not need any of that on THIS forum.... sounds familiar doesn't it? 

Not that's out of my system.....

you actually just described yourself gg lol... Seriously though why aren't you playing Aion, I thought it was gods gift to man in your eyes?

I should also point out that pretty much everything you advocated Aion for is the exact opposite in global agenda. GA has 0 open pvp, I said Aion pvp was terrible because it was just mindless zergs. You took that to say "go back to WoW and your instanced pvp" Global agenda has instanced pvp like bg's and arenas. The irony that you're playing Global Agenda after promoting Aion in so many ways that Global Agenda is the exact opposite makes me laugh. 

 It's a TPS FFS!

 Please no chat about Aion on these forums...

That being said I haven't beta'd the game yet i'm really thinking about it however I've already pre-ordered STO so i'm not fully sure if I want to play 2 games. Pretty much what makerz said about it being a lot like guild wars setup is both a good and bad thing. For me personally it semi makes me want to play since i'd probably play the game casually. At the same time I doubt that I would pay for the sub since I don't really see a point of paying 15 bucks a month (not positive if thats the amount) just to be a part of the "everchanging AVA battles". 

Does anyone have accurate info on what extras the game will feature with a subscription? From what i've read you have access to the AVA big scale battles like 60v60 which focuses on world control etc. Are there other things?

 lol I just cracked and pre-purchased hope to see everyone in game. 

cool =)

it's a very impatient and loud minority thats having issues with it. GA has been above most people's expectations actually. AvA is still gettin started, but those who have played it call it the "best pvp experience of their lives"  ;)

98% of people havent touched AvA, yet some are very quick to talk garbage about the mmo aspects of the game. best to try it out yourself.

Why does a MMO have to be a WOW, EQ clone to be a “mmo”? GA is great. All these people dogging the game have only played the F2P version of the game. They have only tested the AVA 1 time. I played it and it was the most fun I have had in a long time.

I was quite excited by this game but Global Agenda is nothing but shiny hype.

It is a combination of UT and TF2 hyped as being a HUGE game with 60 vs. 60 competition...

Bullshit.

PvP and PvE missions are limited to FOUR PERSON TEAMS !!!!!

Read that again: max is 4 people in your team.

So, you have 10 player "missions" and out of your 50 man guild you can only get 4 players in at a time...

Oh boy, what fun, we get to divide up our guild into little 4 person teams that can't win in the PvP missions because the other 6 people are randoms that have no clue how to hold the control point. (shades of UT2K4 onslaught pub games)

The PvE and PvP "missions" consist of just a few maps that repeat over and over and over and over, I'm already bored playing them.

Then we have the much hyped up "AvA"... It's crap.

Guilds have to bid on the ability to attack opposing teams and then the best you can do is make a 10 man team and hope that a bunch of random retards in your alliance don't click the join attack button and take your mission.

People are expected to pay a monthly fee for the chance to play some 10 v 10 maps maybe a couple hours a day ???

No thanks, if I pay a monthly fee I expect to play the game to it's fullest everyday I choose to play.

Recons are way over powered, assault is far too weak (unless they have two medics on them), Robotics gets ridiculously overpowered when they get the rocket turrets.

Did I mention that Recons are over powered ? LOL, the game is a melee fest where Assault class gets beat to death in 2 seconds by any recon... It's really a bizarro sword simulator most of the time.

All the in game items are money sinks: the implants are asinine and wear out after a few missions, the armor is only cosmetic (seriously the 100K armor gives no more protection than the 4K) the crafting is incredibly stupid requiring one to grind the PvE missions hundreds of times to craft implants that wear out in a few missions...

The skill tress are a total joke, a half a dozen choices (none of which make any great difference) with worthless skills you are forced to choose just to get to the "better" skills.

OH BOY IT HAS 100 LEVELS !!!!

But you get all skills and weapons by level 30 so the other 70 levels are meaningless/worthless to your character development.

The interface is bland and primitive, you cannot sell multiple items (imagine having to sell a stack of 100 items one at a time), there is no friends list, the auction system cannot be sorted or searched so you have to scroll through every item in the auction trying to find what you want.

The lobby system has horrible ambient sounds that are far too loud, the ambient sounds in missions break up and sound like static (not on my system alone, many say this) the weapon sounds are cheesy as well.

And to top it all off it is unoptimized and hooks registers and vectors and then won't release them so you can get a nice BSOD if you don't reboot after playing it.

Global Agenda needed a LOT more testing before any release was considered and is currently not a good game at all, the limitations on teaming is really game breaking and makes it totally unworthy of a subscription fee, barely worthy of purchase.

Bottom line: If I knew the big 60 v 60 gameplay was nothing but hype I would not have bothered to purchase the game and I'm going to check  if Steam will refund.

As it sits, Global Agenda is a ripoff.

Edit: I forgot to mention that you cannot turn off the in game voice so you get to hear little retards screaming into their mics.

nicely summed up

on the flipside, this game has really got me craving some planetside.  I think I may use one of my 90 day SOE sub cards I got from a contest last year.

I had the exact same feeling about everything you just said. The game is not "bad" but its gets boring and repetitive too fast. If only the missions were longer, and items/craft had a real use, this game would be way better. All those people who enjoy the game right now are probably going to be bored after 1 month or 2 at most. Bottom line is I want to enjoy the game but it’s just a beta and I already tested everything the game has to offer, and I see no real fun leveling my character further more. The mmo aspect is lacking, and I would be better off playing css, cs 1.6 or even mwf2, but its just my opinion.
 

R U serious about the 4 man team??

I thought you could play with all 10 guys from your alliance?

Need someone else to confirm that this is the case and not a screw up on that guys part?  That doesnt make sense why they would build it that way.  If you had an alliance of 30 you would want to go in to take 3 differnt hexes? 

i will address some of this moron's issues without breaking the NDA (something people dont care for these days i guess). long story short, the game is in beta, which isnt a surprise. theyre calling it a beta so it is a beta. having tested multiple games before, this is by FAR the most "complete" beta ive played. the core mechanics of the game are in and working great.

 

PvP and PvE missions are limited to FOUR PERSON TEAMS !!!!! Read that again: max is 4 people in your team.

- it was known from that start that pve missions would be done in 4 person teams. strikeforces can be done with 9 of your buddies, but this is exclusive only to the MMO aspect of the game, AvA. the f2p  content you can do only with 3 buddies. how is this any different from a public tf2 server? i dont think a public server would allow 9 of your buddies to join. GA is actually throwing you a bone here....using the queue system, you have a guaranteed spot for 3 other friends.

 

 

 "So, you have 10 player "missions" and out of your 50 man guild you can only get 4 players in at a time..."

- pvp is heart and soul of this game. so you'll basically have to pay to do competitive AvA pvp with 9 agency buddies. these are Strikeforces.

 

 

"The PvE and PvP "missions" consist of just a few maps that repeat over and over and over and over, I'm already bored playing them."

- i dont know, i think it's a great package for the f2p part of the game. there are actually a lot of maps and a nice amount of game modes, all of which are fun depending on your style. the best part is, the company will always update the f2p content with more gear and maps.  it's like having Valve design loads of new maps for tf2 but more often....official maps are always more fun and more balanced than anything done by an amateur mapper. AvA is a completely different set of very large maps.

 

 

"Then we have the much hyped up "AvA"... It's crap. Guilds have to bid on the ability to attack opposing teams and then the best you can do is make a 10 man team and hope that a bunch of random retards in your alliance don't click the join attack button and take your mission."

- this is basically you raging because you dont understand what beta means. the biggest thing hirez needed help with is stress testing the bidding system. they dont have everything ready for you to play. some agencies got to try AvA and they say it's the best pvp experience theyve ever had.

 

 

"Recons are way over powered, assault is far too weak (unless they have two medics on them), Robotics gets ridiculously overpowered when they get the rocket turrets.Did I mention that Recons are over powered ? LOL, the game is a melee fest where Assault class gets beat to death in 2 seconds by any recon... It's really a bizarro sword simulator most of the time."

- this game has the best pvp balance ive ever seen, hell even better than tf2. they worked really hard at it. you issue is that youre raging due to your lack of skill. this is a skill-based MMO. im not gonna go into how each class has over 5 ways to counter a recon, but i will tell you that youre an impatient brat. basically, if you dont take time to learn your class you will FAIL. some classes have a much higher learning curve than others.

 

 

"All the in game items are money sinks: the implants are asinine and wear out after a few missions, the armor is only cosmetic (seriously the 100K armor gives no more protection than the 4K) the crafting is incredibly stupid requiring one to grind the PvE missions hundreds of times to craft implants that wear out in a few missions..."

- this was known before beta, so why are you whining? should have done your research. most people who have tried it actually like this aspect of the game.  without breaking the NDA, it's a certain way of making the game "different "from other MMO games out right now. in a good way.

 

 

"OH BOY IT HAS 100 LEVELS !!!!But you get all skills and weapons by level 30 so the other 70 levels are meaningless/worthless to your character development."

- again, this isnt news. youre a moron for not reading up before buying. the game's focus isnt character progression, it's SKILL DEVELOPMENT.

 

"The interface is bland and primitive, you cannot sell multiple items (imagine having to sell a stack of 100 items one at a time), there is no friends list, the auction system cannot be sorted or searched so you have to scroll through every item in the auction trying to find what you want."

- it's beta. this isnt the meat and bones of the game.

 

"The lobby system has horrible ambient sounds that are far too loud, the ambient sounds in missions break up and sound like static (not on my system alone, many say this) the weapon sounds are cheesy as well."

- cry more. did you happen to find a couple of missing pixels as well somewhere? having played EVE, i would say EVE's weapon sounds are much much worse, for example. music in the game is quite good. most of the game sounds will come from your buddies though, and the music you put on in the background...it's a tactical shooter, not roleplaying faggotry. i wanna get pumped and i wanna coordinate on voice chat. it feels a lot like EVE gang ops...you shut off all sounds to listen to your FC. it's intense. btw, this game easily has the best ingame voice system. in terms of quality (maybe not customization atm because it's STILL BETA). you wont be needing vent.

 

"And to top it all off it is unoptimized and hooks registers and vectors and then won't release them so you can get a nice BSOD if you don't reboot after playing it."

- yep, it's beta.i have a mediocre laptop and the game runs almost perfectly on medium-high settings. i havent crashed once.

 

"Global Agenda needed a LOT more testing before any release was considered and is currently not a good game at all, the limitations on teaming is really game breaking and makes it totally unworthy of a subscription fee, barely worthy of purchase."

- 90% of people testing it right now would disagree with out. the other 10% is a very LOUD minority that doesnt like anything about the game in general. it's not a game for them. pack up your shit, and go. you dont need to post raging goodbye threads everywhere. it's like me logging onto WoW and spamming trade chat and the forums about everything thats horrible about that game. sure, it's a great game loved by many, but i hate it. however, i dont find this necessary. i just left quietly. why cant others do the same>

 

"Bottom line: If I knew the big 60 v 60 gameplay was nothing but hype I would not have bothered to purchase the game and I'm going to check  if Steam will refund."

- steam will refund preorders i think. please get it as soon as possible. dont need raging babies in my favourite game.

 

"Edit: I forgot to mention that you cannot turn off the in game voice so you get to hear little retards screaming into their mics."

- you can choose not to TEST the beta. you've chosen wisely. and judging by the amount of rage in your post, i guarantee you everyone in GA atm is older than you. game caters to older gamers who understand teamwork and tactics. havent seen heard a single teen just yet, even though im sure they would be embraced if mature. adults can be retards as well, but theyre by no means little.

They have confirmed they are making a system for full 10 man teams in pvp, as it is right now yes, you can only bring 4 from your agency... or friends.  I do agree it is lame to get grouped with pubs who don't use mics or have any sense of teamwork, however I've found a good team of 4 can easily win a match if said 4 people work well together.

- cry more. did you happen to find a couple of missing pixels as well somewhere? having played EVE, i would say EVE's weapon sounds are much much worse, for example. music in the game is quite good. most of the game sounds will come from your buddies though, and the music you put on in the background...it's a tactical shooter, not roleplaying faggotry. i wanna get pumped and i wanna coordinate on voice chat. it feels a lot like EVE gang ops...you shut off all sounds to listen to your FC. it's intense. btw, this game easily has the best ingame voice system. in terms of quality (maybe not customization atm because it's STILL BETA). you wont be needing vent.

 

"And to top it all off it is unoptimized and hooks registers and vectors and then won't release them so you can get a nice BSOD if you don't reboot after playing it."

- yep, it's beta.i have a mediocre laptop and the game runs almost perfectly on medium-high settings. i havent crashed once.

 

"Global Agenda needed a LOT more testing before any release was considered and is currently not a good game at all, the limitations on teaming is really game breaking and makes it totally unworthy of a subscription fee, barely worthy of purchase."

- 90% of people testing it right now would disagree with out. the other 10% is a very LOUD minority that doesnt like anything about the game in general. it's not a game for them. pack up your shit, and go. you dont need to post raging goodbye threads everywhere. it's like me logging onto WoW and spamming trade chat and the forums about everything thats horrible about that game. sure, it's a great game loved by many, but i hate it. however, i dont find this necessary. i just left quietly. why cant others do the same>

 

"Bottom line: If I knew the big 60 v 60 gameplay was nothing but hype I would not have bothered to purchase the game and I'm going to check  if Steam will refund."

- steam will refund preorders i think. please get it as soon as possible. dont need raging babies in my favourite game.

 

"Edit: I forgot to mention that you cannot turn off the in game voice so you get to hear little retards screaming into their mics."

- you can choose not to TEST the beta. you've chosen wisely. and judging by the amount of rage in your post, i guarantee you everyone in GA atm is older than you. game caters to older gamers who understand teamwork and tactics. havent seen heard a single teen just yet, even though im sure they would be embraced if mature. adults can be retards as well, but theyre by no means little.

 

 

 

Standard fanboi schlok... (and learn how to quote so your tripe is readable)

First off, fanboi, there is no NDA, I paid for this game and I didn't sign any NDA when I bought it so save your pretentious bullshit for someone else.

The Beta boards for GA are filled with the same "rage" that I have expressed and it boils down to the fact that at E3 it was shown to be a huge game for large teams and it turns out to be a tiny game that is filled with repetitious failure.

The AvA is an absolute joke, and if you join an alliance (which you have to do unless you have millions) then random alliance members can jump into any conquest match available which can cost your guild hundreds of thousands and you don't even get to play...

It absolutely pathetic and the shiny aspect is wearing off VERY fast for a great number of people.

Pay a subscription for this ?? In your friggin' dreams.

Our 50 man guild is all over 18, most in the 20's, 30's, and even one in the 40's and none of them will be subscribing to Global Agenda because it is currently nothing more than a hyped up FPS game that claims to have HUGE 60 vs 60 pvp but really only has 10 vs 10 at the very biggest part of the game and normally limits teams to 4 players.

The simple fact is that Global Agenda is being sold on hype and, unlike other FPS games that have player run servers, this game will die because the server/development  costs are going to exceed the number of subscriptions by a large amount.

Anyone jackass enough to subscribe for the possibility of playing 10 v 10 matches deserves the simplistic and broken gameplay that Global Agenda has to offer.

4 man teams and 10 v 10 do not a massive game make, smells more like something that should be on the X-Box or similar console.

Global Agenda is a lie.

I thought you could play with all 10 guys from your alliance?

 

Need someone else to confirm that this is the case and not a screw up on that guys part?  That doesnt make sense why they would build it that way.  If you had an alliance of 30 you would want to go in to take 3 differnt hexes? 

 

They have confirmed they are making a system for full 10 man teams in pvp, as it is right now yes, you can only bring 4 from your agency... or friends.  I do agree it is lame to get grouped with pubs who don't use mics or have any sense of teamwork, however I've found a good team of 4 can easily win a match if said 4 people work well together.

That doesn't make any sense.

How can a good team of 4 win the match ??

There are three control points, do not try and tell me that you can hold one alone that is pure BS.

Our guild members, as a team of 4, can hold ANY individual control point but it is not possible to spread out 4 players and capture two control points for a win unless you are playing against absolute retards.

The only way you 4 win is if the other 6 players do what they are supposed to do otherwise it is lose, lose, lose no matter how good you think you are.

You'd have to be playing against idiots with broken hands to say that 4 of you are winning the match by yourselves.
