I just got done fooling around with it for about 30 mins. It seems very, very cool. Great atmosphere. Beautiful graphics, ran like a dream for me (only dipped to 40 fps in the crowded city of Khylos) and holds alot of promise.

My name in-game is Lord Soundwave, so all of you who will be playing this, add me to your list and we'll go on some missions together or whatever. I am a Ranger/Necromancer.
 
:D Awesome! :D Can't wait to try it out! :D This makes me very happy! :D
 
Hmm, loaded it up (Edgar Qckbeam if anyone would like to know) and I was instanly killed by a bunch of renegades and gargoyles.
 
Starting the long d/l. The name is Brother Darkness.

EDIT: oh boy.. 20 KB/sec avg...god I hate the campus internet
 
hoo yeah baby thats AWESOME! (my name is john shoop) in game
 
Me is Letters Ahoy... doin' the big download as well. :)

Ed. And AmishSlayer, it's pretty slow for me too.
 
I won't be on for the rest of the night but add me to you guys' Friends List in-game. I'll be on tomorrow after Sony and Nintendo's live conferences.
 
Found the game to be quite boring. I whooped the shit out of some monsters and it was quite easy. I don't think I'll be playin it anymore but if I'm ever on again my name is Stickerin Mybutt.

Heheh Ill probably keep it as MC Hammer. So sound got any thoughts on it? Is it boring like pressure said? I sure hope not.
 
Oh man, this looks cool. I'll be on the name "Shuzer Yojin"
 
Wow, nothing like I imagined.. I feel like I'm playing Dungeon Siege all over again! :)

Did anyone else expect something TOTALLY different..?

I only spent about a half hour on it, and it seemed pretty cool so far. I did a mission with some kind of knights or town guards. We took on a group of renegades and it was pretty fun. The NPCs have voice, or at least those ones did. Then I fooled around with my various skills to see how they were then went to Khylos real quick just to see how bad the performance drop was (wasn't bad at all) and signed off. It seems like a fun rpg though, you can definately tell ex-Blizzard guys had a hand in it.
 
i played a lil bit, wasnt bad. might play some more tommorrow (nugga BB) is the name. not really a rpg fan but this wasnt too bad.
 
This demo isn't actually MMO :| Oh well, looks promising.. very very VERY similar to dungeon siege, only looks way better
 
It's pretty cool. What's this 'big install' you guys are talking about. I got the little like 67 kbs file from the guild wars site... (the downloading/loading screens are a pain)
 
i think its damn obvious this game was made my people who know how the hell to make games fun. there wasent really anything that was a downer... i liked it a lot. nice scenes, nice graphics, more likeable gameplay than, say, galaxies. ill probably buy it based upon this demo.
 
I played a coopertive quest with some folks... and WOW, great fun! I like how it reserves items for certain people in the party and that death isn't really a BIG deal. And there was more to it than just 'hit things'! We had to run our asses off away from a huge army... so sweet...
 
Downloading it, ever so slowly. 4KB/sec I love my 56k.
 
Was REALLY awesome, never really played MMPORG's due to $$, but this looks very promising.
Well, I went on a quest with 3 others, and we got very far until getting whooped by some pretty powerful dudes.

I'm Monsieur Javert - Monk.
 
We should all get together sometime in the next couple of days and go for some quests :)

Yea I agree everyone post your names and we can play together. That was a pretty fun mission with the whole army thing.
 
I already put it at the beginning, but just for emphasis :p

Lord Soundwave

I'll be on tomorrow most likely anytime after 3 Central time.
 
What the...could've sworn I posted in this thread, where's it??

Ah well, here's it again:

I might play it sometime soon...
 
i like it, the only two things that i dont like so far: 1) can't bind keys and i hate that A and D are turn rather than strafe. 2) can't invert mouse. those two things combined make it quite disorienting. oh well its a nice change from WoW.

oh yeah im using The Alternate in game.
 
Guido Josselyne. :eek: I think it's great fun so far, but we just can't beat the 2nd Charr mission. The big guys always stomp our fighters then pick off our archers :'(
