1) It's sporatic w/ no rewards. the classes are unbalanced vs.each other, but it can still be fun.

 

2) Regular? yes. About once every 1.5 months. Good? NO! They don't test enough, and they ignore player feedback and change things w/ a total disregard  o the game as a whole. They pump out shit content and mask it in the "look how productive we are" MO.

3) Like an MMO there is a "grinding" aspect, but w/ the mutiplyer, CPs being more frequented, and XP  multiplier tokens it's not nearly as bad as other games.

4) lolendgame. Unless you consider talking in world chat and standing around doing /emotes "end game"... then, there's plenty!

Hah I guess the second poster should have used pink! Ahh well.

Anyway, agreed with these answers. I played TR when it first came out but cancelled after a few weeks. The game just felt like it was caught in the middle of wanting to be a fps, and an MMO (obviously that's what they were going for, but didn't quite get it). So it just feels slow sometimes, and boring at others. Of course things could have changed since I last played, but I read the forums to see what has changed, and still seems the same.

You can still try a trial and see if it is worth your time. Everyone forms their own opinions. Good luck!

1. Sucks.  It's non-existent.  If you like dueling or squad dueling though you'll be set.

2. Regularly updated?  Yes.  Good updates?  No.  Most of them are filled with entirely pointless or arbitrary changes.

3.  It's a quest grind basically.  No, there's not much variation.

4.  There is no endgame whatsoever.  There isn't a single piece of endgame in TR.  Once you hit top level you've basically won the game and your only option is to start over with a new toon.

Boring squad duals and clan duals. No set PvP other than simple duels.

2. regular upadates? are they decent ones?

There are regular updates, but they don't really add anything; they remove bugs but new ones.

3. pvE? is it grind fest? is there variation between people?

Theres Control Points and a few instances, although no variation between players, no variation between zones and same fetch x or kill x amount quests.

4. How is end game is there anything you can do?

You can jump across rooftops, farm striders and attack level 50 CPs aka there is no endgame.

You''ve been a bad girl Miss Liberty, now go to my room!

Just listen to this podcast and you will know all you need to know

http://www.virginworlds.com/podcast.php?show=13&ep=1

I suggest the only person you can know is going to tell you what you need to hear is yourself. 

If you over play a game it gets old to you no matter WHAT game, even Warhammer or Conan or whatever is going to get old if you over do it, every game a person needs to take a rest from and anything in the game can be construed in every way depending on who you ask.

IMO this game is awesome and has good AI better then any other MMO so far and it IS getting Clan controlled outposts in about a month. And many aspects get better all the time,

And the community is one of the great ones you here about in games too.

There is soooo much to this game no one could give you a fare opinion on it except for your self.

Actually AI is probably the worst I've ever seen in any video game. Exobio's pets don't do jack. And after about 7 months since release, almost no new aspects have been added besides an auction house where you can't bid, useless races (actually more just head/body skins) and a few non-repeatable instances.

Some of the servers community is worse than Barrens chat imo.

Last sentence is just so full of epic fail I'm not going to even bother ranting.
