• • Invitation to Sign Up for SGW Beta!

  • I signed also and is crossing my fingers to get an invite soon to the closed beta. Also , tried to get the guranted beta key from the contest but alas ! , i am poor at those shooting Flash games.

    After Requiem Closed Beta ended , it is still City of Heroes as the option .

    Would like to deliver a good amount of game-playing time to this Beta.

    Cheers

  • Requiem Higher Connection Speed And Lower Connection Speed – Game-play     Difference.

     

    I had a friend in India and thus I passed him a spare code and told him to play the game and find out if it was good. He is a WoW player. He later called me up and came up with all the negatives about the game and he was also playing the same character “Templar“as I was playing. His complain was mainly about casting delays and lack of smoothness in game-play.

     

    Now, I thought why not visit his place and find out the problem he is going through. He has a higher end machine better than me but still the skills mainly the casting skills just won’t trigger with the same speed and smoothness as it does in my machine. I thus logged into my account and played my Templar at 38 from his machine. I found out that my templar really sucked in the game-play though it had no problem from my machine. Thus it was found that if you have a slow and low connection of the likes of broadband (256 Kb/Sec) this game is going to be very difficult to play. Later he came back and played his character from my machine and bingo, he likes the smoothness in game-play.

     

    I know the game-play is in Beta yet but then again isn’t this a serious technical snag in the game-play mode. Over the years he has played Everquest , Anarchy Online , Rapplez and many  other games. But this game did make a difference with the connection speed.

     

    So , if you are junking Requiem just because you are not doing as good as the others are, or leveling as fast as the others are or dying too much , I think you should check the connection speed of your net.

  • Here we go…………..

    A look at the Closed Beta Test for Requiem.

     

    I am sorry but still then I will write all that can make the game better ……

     

    Chat Interface needs to be upgraded a lot. It should be such that it can be easily worked out and players can be invited just by clicking their name on the chat. A whisper should be answered with a key stroke rather than writing the full name with the /w and continuing.

     

    The look and feel of the game is very good , but the journey to places is a bit time consuming  so if there were mounts or super sprint mode or may be haste potions then may be some journeys would have really been fast and then again the horror of passing by high level areas would have ceased to exist.

     

     

    Sometimes playing a Templar, you really can hit a target far and the target stops there and do not come to you as if the target is unable to find your location. Now this needs to be fixed as many far of monsters with the electric bolt tend to get stuck a lot.

     

    I was playing a Templar and to go into the critical analysis of that part I would really go class specific but I can well try to do that a bit. Skills are awesome and the only thing that I found was that “ ION SHEILD “ had a higher def than “ DIVINE SHEILD “ but then again “ ION SHEILD “ cannot be buffed to others and if someone buffs me “ DIVINE SHEILD “ then I loose the high def and have to yell at him / her not to buff me as I was  unable to cancel that buff and now I am stuck with around 50 points of low def .

     

    When playing Templar and as healer the one thing I felt that I needed was shortcut keys to select one of the 8 members in my team window so as to make my healing more accurate  and faster.

     

    At level 36 for a Templar, a skill comes in known as Glaring Light , well the total damage in it is 108 for 6 seconds , is that skill of any use at that level ?

     

    Dungeons:-

    We really have some cool dungeons in this game and the coolest part of it is they are private with bosses and awesome drops from bosses, I here mean Chaste Sanctum and Ruins of Lament.

     

    But the lack of dungeons after level 25+ and till you can do Ancient Temple is a big grind time where most players feel a bit irritated for sure. Why I hint at dungeons is because, I have seen MMO’s go player less when there is too much solo stuff. I know  good gamers like to solo a lot and twink the character to solo higher and more stronger monsters for their levels but then again the casual gamers who are just in for some good time and fun should be handled with extreme care as they form the bulk of the population.

     

    The Auction Hall Window…………………

    Well the Auction Hall is really nice but you can well have a way to link your items and have a look at the similar items to check the price fast or to buy a better one. Auction hall also needs a bit better scroller to scroll or may be parameters like 4 types stats points to make the search less tedious. It has been so many times that when I needed to search some items I was like going through a long list and I never needed the items with one type of stat types. For example suppose I need a bracelet with 3 dex  2 str and 2 int but in auction hall I have to go through searching the entire list with bracelets that even have just 1 str. So I want many more parameters for searching and the putting of name option also as it is sometimes easy to put in name than to go and search from the tree with armor-leather-head……..Now when we come to sell items which has a bid, there should be some button where I can just see the items that as a bid and can clear them. I may be wrong here as I have not tried to find if selling items with the bid comes in the biding aperture.

     

    Another thing that he auction hall needs is a way for people to buy item at their own price. For example I want to buy a bracelet with 1 str , I will just go and set the name and the parameters and set my bid for it . The other person who has it just needs to come and put it and sell at buyer’s price. Thus this will ensure that many good items do not go to the vendor and all has a chance to make the most of their loot.

     

    Though I am writing so much but the best Auction House I have seen so far is in City of Heroes known as consignment house. I know comparison is bad but then again the ease of gaming is what makes good games better and better the best, is it not?

     

    Mail System ….

    The mail system does not allow passing items between same accounts. Why so?

     

    Sometimes with low connection speeds, the game halts a bit; these needs to be fixed a bit as there are many players who play the game through wireless or routers where there is connections speed disparity.

     

    Apart from all this I really have not found much and if I do I will really report it and make it a worthwhile effort to make this game better and may be more users friendly and more fun for the coming times.
