What game content is there aside from crafting and quest after quest....I am at level 8 and that is all I have done so far. What other content can I expect that will keep me playing this game?

I have not encountered this issue, although the update process when I updated the game took me from one day to the next. If this has changed by now, I am not sure. Have you tried to search the Support forums at fallenearth.com?  I would recommend searching the forums to see if anyone else is having similar issues.  If you do not find anything, I would post on there if you have not already and you will probably get a fairly quick response as the community and support for Fallen Earth is top notch.

I have been able to login fine and just logged in to test before i posted a reply to this. Not sure what you are talking about bro.

you have to get insurance on your ship............join Eve University and they will teach you how to play the game.

www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx We need to know your price range...heres a card thats $300.  This is the next card I am getting as my upgrade from my 8800 GT.  You currently get a free copy of Call of Duty World At War and Terminator Salvation when you purchase this car..thats a sweet deal for an amazing card.

Don't be dumb guys, Mythic is a good company and this is amazing news that mythic is assisting Bioware. This means that there will be more staff, more experience, and faster development time.  This means that Bioware is serious about making a game to compete with World of GoonCraft.

real life comes first.  Cut back on the game, don't be a loser.

the truth is, by the time this game is released, SWG will have 100 times more content than this game and will probably be a better product, this game is overhyped and will be a dissappointment.  SWG continues to release content and is an amazing game if people could have their brains wiped and they never had any memory of the early days of SWG.

This game really doesnt desever me spending time any time on it, not even using words here, but to warn newcomers to the game I think its my duty to do so.

 

I will make it short and simple, and I dont bother explaining all my statetements with any 'why & which' reasons.

 

Community:

Stinks. It is a bunch on 'inbred MMMORPG' players that suffers under the 'wear & tear'sybdrome', which means that there is no newcomer blood to the game, so all the relations they players have is to the same all same all faces they have seen for the last 4 years. If you want a buff, like essence, prepare to pay 200k for it, which is ALOT for a newb.

 

Playing in teams:

Good luck on this; I played for about a week in my comeback after been gone for 4 years, the only team I saw formed in Nascence cost me 1mill pr level to join!

Soloing; This is a joke; Getting levels is ALL about finding a group which you have to pay for to join, then grind Hecklers until you are around level 200... How interesting!

Ingame helpers: Non existent. You have tolearn all yourself. Dont rely on getting any advice or help, even if you ask polite.

 

Character developing:

You have 1 reset. If you do anything wrong when you put out your pts to develop you character, be sure to do it right (how can that be done when you are newb?). If not, you are stuck with a crappy developed character. The ways of changing your character are so limited and includes so much work its really not worth it.

If you should try this, I will give you this advice; do not even THINK about giving any advice how to improve the game; 99% of the players are flameboys; you WILL be hated, especially if you compare it to how World of Warcraft do to improve the game to satisfye the players.

 

Lag:

Horrible. Enough said about that.

 

Duels:

A duel between 220's takes at least 5 minutes. Utterly boooring. (if they are equally equipped)

 

Teaming;

AO is ALL about teaming; FC has taken teaming to the bizzare extreme. You are getting NOWHERE without teams. Game has nothing to offer to the soloer.

 

Last words:

This was my very first MMORPG. Back then at its release there were only 3 known MMORPGs: EQ1, AO & Ultima Online. I really REALLY loved the game back then. After playing it for a few years, I started to play other games. Came back few weeks ago, and was utterly dissapointed. It hadnt changed anything that was worth mentioning. Well, one player flamed me about this and said that the game had got ridden of the 'reclaims'... I just said 'wow, what a change'

You STILL have a rez sickness that lasts over 5 minutes! Imagine waiting for this to end, then have to run for 5 minutes back to where you were grinding...

 

In game challenges;

The bigges challenge (work) is about tweaking your character. AO has taken 'tweaking' to a whole new level; If you are a newb, be prepared to spend 90% of your time tweaking (wearing new gear & weapons), while the last 10% is about walking all by yourself in land totally empty with living creatures.

 

Getting into guilds:

The week I tried it, I saw 1 (ONE!!!) guild recruiting. They had a minimum req of Level 200... Talk about being optimistic in a game that has no income of newbs... Needless to say that trying to create a guild for yourself is impossible.

 

Ingame player population:

It seems that everyone who plays this, which is 99% veterans, has 2 accounts. One of the few players I met when I was grinding xp, was a lowbie with his L220 on follow, to save his @ss and make his alt be able to handle higher level mobs than if he were alone.

 

Roleplaying:

If you are after RP, be prepared to be laughed and mobbed; I know stories about people who has tried to RP; they were so much harassed and laughed at that they just left AO. You WILL see players who are RP 'tagged' (some marks beside their names'; They have done this to make their names looking more 'cool', not for the Roleplaying intention.

 

Conclusion: 

I had a real hard time in my comeback (changed server, so I started with nothing, since my old server is dead) I kept my mouth shut, just watching how the game was 'working', and didnt get involved in any discussion. When I asked for a buff, I barely had any reply, even though I asked polite, ending it with 'please'. If I had a reply, they clearly stated it would cost me a fortune.

Game is dead, and all you see are dual playing veterans, which actually makes the community twice as big as it appears since everyone has at least 2 accounts. If I should take a wild guess, I think that RK2 has no more than 500 unique players, probably less.

 

If you want a Sci-Fi game with impressive helpful community, and highly customizable characters with easy rests to new class, I strongly suggest SWG! I just returned to that. The game is totally changed, and community is THE best I ever been into.

 

PS:

You AO flame- &  fanbois dont bother flame me here for this, since I will not reply to this thread, cause the game is worthless. If you think the new GFX engine will save the day, or even be an asset to the game, I suggest you do a trial on Age of Conan. Lag in Conan is HORRIBLE.

 

 

All this what I said, is my PERSONAL opinions. Whatever anyone here will say, it will not change opinion. The ONLY thing that could make me reconsider coming back to AO, is that someone REALLY helpful had invited me back, to show me the positive sides of the game, which I might would have considered since no game has meant as much to me as AO and the first day I logged in ( I thought the Backyard was the WHOLE game then )

 

I wish the game all the best, I have no bitterness for it, even though the game treated me worst in my comeback of all games I have played, which means most major MMORPGs there is. I hope FC gets it back on track.

 

 

Cheers! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have zero lag in Conan so either your connection blows or your computer needs an upgrade.

Hey guys..I love spells that have beautiful animations and effects.  Could anyone list some fo the games with the best spell animations. I like to be entertained when casting spells.

My monitor has both a DVI and VGA cable on it, both are required to be plugged in for it to work.

I just unplugged everything except my MB and it makes absolutely no noise when turned on, just a blue light.

Is there supposed to be a noise or something? Does the light mean anything bad?

what...why would a monitor require you to have both VGa or DVI plugged in at the same time to work. That is a load of garbage. that is probably your problem.

I used to love SWG but quit when they allowed players to toggle if they wanted to be hunted or not by bounty hunters. I  have no clue if they took this out of the game or not but my entire guild of bounty hunters quit as it took away from the class.

Its because before World of Warcraft...75% of the people that play mmorpgs now never knew what a mmorpg was.  Admit it. I have a few guys that I work with that quit playing World of Warcraft saying, i'm doing with mmorpgs.  I asked them what other mmorpg they played and they said none.  lol.   I saw on a forum somewhere and someone was calling Anarchy Online a World of Warcraft clone...rolf.  Anarchy Online came out in 2001.  Its rather silly that people think that world of warcraft was the first mmorpg although it did help kick start the genre 10 fold.

lol....SWG will not be losing its license....

I honestly think there is a grey area between levels 20 and 40.  I think most people quit the game in that area.

I can't believe this company is reacting to a review.  A think the review is true and it is based on professional opinion.  Darkfall has no right to argue this review.  What they SHOULD do like a real company is sit down and say "hey why did we get such a bad review?"  They need to look at all the items that were listed as bad in the game and try to correct them.  The review was not just the opinion of Eurogamer as a very large amount of users that have played the game agreed with this review.   Darkfall is overpriced failure on a game that most can not even subscribe to when they have their checkbooks wide open.  They need to deal with this and correct this or they will fail as a company.

As stated, Lord of the Rings Online is PVE based so the PVP really is not much.  I remember dueling someone and they were ten levels below me and I got completey owned so with that being said, its insanely unbalanced.   Lord of the Rings is probably the best PVE mmorpg I have played so I can not knock it as being a bad game but absolutely do not play this for PVP.  There is plenty of other games for PVP.

Neither  Pando Media Booster or Gameguard are spyware...end of discussion.

Quit then, chances are your going to play a different game that has directx 9...lol.
