does anyone else find it scary that they want you to pay for a game ahead of time before even a beta has begun? |

Originally posted by itgrowls Yes, but it doesnt apply to this game. Considering beta has been running for quite some time. |

Originally posted by Paithan Yes, and I know what you are saying. That there is little info available yet. Good, Bad or indifferent, I'd still advise caution and wait. If the conversation turned "Tit-for-Tat", and I've stopped posting, Consider it your win. |

Well.... from what i have read, they have had some betas already take place. Unlike games like GW2 and Tera, they have yet to have a press beta/open beta which would then give us loads of video/info with which to base an opinion of the game on. I guess for myself, before i choose to purchase a game, i like to see something like a press beta/open beta which allows gamers to go in and actually get a feel for what they think, then come back and with video for support, show us their opinions. So, in response to your post, technically some betas have taken place.

Originally posted by itgrowls Yeah they have had beta going for several months now, and alot of content has been reviewed up to and including much of the carpathian zone, and the crafting systems. It is alot more scary the thought of how much more customization, team play, and comboing you can get in the game setting. Even the story/lore setting is also quite scary for how well it is done to keep it believible, yet still fantisy like wihtout over doing it. Yet how people can make this kind of statement of no betas having happened, without chacking out several sources, and then make themselves look like complete dim-wits for posting it is beyond scary trully mind blowing really. |

Originally posted by RathanX26 That was part of my confusion, you see the wording of the email advertising the preorder of the game combined with a complete blanket on videos of gameplay really left me wondering if they had any betas at ALL. |

whatever the case is, ill get this game maybe when the price drops. I like the game and i will definitelly play it...... some day. Not at launch. Perhaps when they learn that they just dont go around charging for everything (f2p anyone?) "in peace, in sleep under the barren, abandoned soil"

Originally posted by GeezerGamer Wait what? No info out or availible on what part of the game? THere is info about the combat machanics, setting, factions, item usage (such as what is vanity, or not.), the zones, and even abit on the warzones and such. Alot of it might be buried back further in youtube, and such but that does not mean there is no info out. there are gameplay vids, i think i have seen some pvp vids, and even many longer vids of disgussion on what the gam is and how it is done really. Check the site, youtube or other such sites, and even wikis there is alot more then people think. |

Originally posted by Asuran24 purhaps he means video info, i can't seem to find much either in that regard, which is why i didn't think they were doing betas at all really. couldn't find much.

GW2 fanboy hits the TSW forum with a slime and gets treated pretty decently. A TSW fanboy trying that on the GW2 forum would get tarred and feathered, then stabbed with pitchforks by the angry mob |

Originally posted by GeezerGamer That I agree on, Im more concerned about how they made us sign up on facebook for the secret war which.. still hasnt started (considering it was suposed to be tied with beta) is odd, they pushed the game back but still, otherwise the war would start a tad... late. Then ofcourse the previous garanteed beta offers on which they still havent made good on. So there definately are plenty of red flags. But the game still looks and sounds amasing, but the red flags DO keep me from investing more money into that game before its actually released. |

Originally posted by itgrowls I would then ask where you are looking as even just looking at the site they have several vids there. Just checking youtube for "tsw gameplay" gives you a run thru of he first dungeon, and then add in that you have the wids of the flashback in tokyo too, and even many vids of them discribing the systems and info of the game as well as setting. This screams of checking sites for several minutes at most, and then complaining that nothign comes of it, or down right just lieing for the sake of making another poster sound correct.
And yes give me a bit and i will post what i find. for all. |

Originally posted by wrightstuf well actually i didn't make but one assumption, which was that betas weren't on their way, and i managed to be appologetic about it. I find people are often more helpful when they find out that you know you aren't informed and actually seeking data on a subject. Not sure your experience in the GW2 forum. Hopefully you weren't one of the multitudes of crazy insane posts in there recently. You know the ones. "the shop is P2W doesn't matter what's actually in it" "the combat is just like WoW" "the world isn't persistant" "the game is a modified WoW with a shop" you know, posts that give you brain cancer. I hope mine wasn't received that way in this forum I'm always open to more info about anything and was posting because i received an email from these people trying to sell me their game in what i perceived was entirely too early. |
