You can always find solace into the fact that FE's launch will be about a 1000 time more smooth then Aion's.

Or WWIIOnline, which is about the worst you can get. :bleeding:

The game is great, but the launch was a nightmare. :bleeding:

Hmm. Looks interesting. Why does it take five or six shots to kill anything with his .357 revolvers? He must be shooting rubber bullets or something.

Excellent! Make sure to follow the trail of quests giving you receipe books, because as a first-timer it is quite hard to oversee the various sub-sections of crafting.

I will send you the stuff I promised today, altough you will soon be able to craft/salvage those.

Oh and quests: the lamest thing in the game is that quests give you APs (Advancement Pointrs or somesuch). You see, while you level, you gradually gain APs (IIRC, 'bout 10 or 20 per level, given in 5 or 10 parts gradually as you gather XP for everything you do, yeah even harvesting can give you a few XPs). That is the only source of APs. And questing. So if you want to max out your guy, you have to do all the quests which give APs. :(

This is a review post from the game's forums, sums up my thoughts nicely:

QuoteThe first voiceover that said the word shi- made me laugh and reminded me that hey this isnt your kiddie WoW game (thank god)

This was a pretty stupid thought, Tamas. :P

Yes, I liked WWII Online up until I started getting knifed to death inside my Panzer.

Dont know if they fixed that by now. :lol: But the new patch makes the game look a bit more 2006. Might get me back playing it  :)

And now ill stop promoting thread hijacking  :P

I loved blowing the shit out of panzers with my French 37mm AT-gun or in a Stuart. I had reached the rank of Major in the French army. :menace:

However, you can replay a fictitious battle of France as much as you can, I hope someday they'll open another front, otherwise it gets silly. I'd love WWIIOnline set during Operation Barbarossa. :wub:

Now, back to the MMO that requires at least a  dual core to even try it.  :P

Tamas

Life in 2009 requires a dual core. :P

My ISP has decided to do some upgrades, causing constant and ranom 10 second outages in the service, for the entire week, so don't expect me much, if at all, online in FE this week <_<

I was able to spend a little over an hour.

The interface for combat is taking a little getting used to but it is starting to grow on me.  I really like how they have done the crafting.  Obviously I am just scratching the service but it has an  Eve like feel about it.

I spent most of my time scavaging and leveling my gathering abilities my harvesting resource nodes around the starting area.  I have started to accumulate the starting crafting skills and I will probably get more into the crafting tonight.

I dont fully understand how character progression works yet but what I see I like.  At this early stage it seems to be along the lines of you are what you do.  So the more I scavenge, harvest nodes and craft, the better I get at those particular activities.

I also like the fact that I can craft on the run so I dont have wait staring at my screen for a few minutes waiting for my crafting jobs to run.

This could be a lot of fun.

I find this game interesting but the lack of Free trial & up coming internet less home means I'm going to wait.

I think I made a mistake using my APs to boost my intelligence and Perception.  I see everyone saying you should spend any APs for a while.

Ran around doing the some more beginning quests last night and gathering more mats for crafting.  Tonight I will start paying more attention to starting my crafting and figuring out the game a bit more.
