I liked the music.  What was it?

I played beta and then for about 4 months after release.  Then I quit and came back around the merge.  Playing happily since then.  I enjoy the game and am usually able to find groups on Xeth.  In a great great guild too and tend to find most groups with them.

As much as I like to encourage people to come back or start it up.  I am unable to give it a full blown recommend yet.  There are still some issues.  The current round of game update (#) is ongoing and doesn't seem likely to be finished until end of the year.  There are massive amounts of things being done within this update though and I am really hoping to see major improvements so I can really give the two thumbs up.

If you have played in the past and liked it, but it was just too buggy, then it may be time to come back.

If you played in the past and hated it, then you probably always will and don't bother.

If you have never played then I suggest waiting until the next game update is complete and give it shot then.  (unless you got nothing else to do then go for it, but don't say I didn't warn you)  Although you may be pleasantly surprised and love it right off.

I know a few actual new to the game players who are really having a great time.  So I guess you never know.

When you camp in an outpost, I believe the rest exp builds up at about 1% per hour logged.  Not sure of the rate outside an outpost, though is is significantly less.

The game overall has improved.  I played from release and then quit for a couple months.  Then came back right before the server merge.

Game Update 3 is being implemented in three phases over the next 3 weeks I believe.  If you are itching to play then do it.  If you can wait another month until this GU is implemented and hot-patched then ask again and  there will be more info.  Bugs, crash to desktop issues and raid zone coming this time.

Inquisitor would be the next class, likely not until a couple more Game Updates come out.  Last I heard, the Berserker class had not been scrapped yet, but was last on a long list of priorities.  Would not plan on seeing it for quite awhile.
