Well, I got what I wanted to out of the preview weekend.  The basics of the game are down and working, and the game is actually a lot of fun. The RvR sieges and open battles remind me a bit of DAoC, and the instanced RvR (I have never done this before) was actually fun. It was a quick and easy way to get into RvR battles.

There were a few minor things and bugs in game, but none of them should be a problem by the end of open beta or when it releases. Yesterday, I would say the game is ready to release has it is, but today brought a lot of problems that everyone knows of ie. pathing problems and the keep in tier 2.

My hats off to Mythic. They made a fun game that wants people to group and work together. This is something the post WoW releases have not done imo.   See yall in open beta!

I agree, it was very fun. I'm glad that I had the opportunity to see what classes that I like and want to continue. Before I started playing I had it all figured out; I wanted to be a witch hunter or a white lion all the way. And after a few hours I wound up with an awesome Witch Elf. The game has a few concerns such as the every once in awhile crash and the maps were very confusing at first and took me awhile to figure out. I think that it would be very cool to have a world map that slowly revealed itself as you explored the land. But after a few more weeks of development and after all the feedback they'll be getting hopefully they'll respond in kind and not go the funcom route...I'm still excited about release, and now I know Its destruction all the way.

After preordering AOC I was considering never preordering again until I played the preview weekend now I've ordered 3 copies one for me my brother and my girlfriend. The game is really fun.

Had a blast.  I have finally decided on a couple of classes to play seriously.  There were so many that took like 50 hours to figure out, and they were classes that I would have never tried without the beta and preview.  Glad to have been involved.

My friend got in the preview weekend, but his computer is so old, it ran WAR at like 7 frames a second, so he let me play his account today. I had no idea what to expect. I've heard negative and positive things about WAR, up to now. However, I wound up playing all day, like eight hours in a row. First a Black Orc, then an Dwarf Engineer. It was a blast. I am pre-ordering  fo' sho'. Man, I wish I had one more day!
