Is this game worth buying?

[OkumuraBlood]

Just wondering what you guys think are the Pros and cons of playing defiance over other games.
(Eg. Does this game have a stable population, is there just something special about the combat, and finally are there mounts.), and does anyone know if it's got heavy lag for Australian players.

Sorry if these are stupid that have been asked over and over.

Yes its worth it. Especially worth it at todays price. Lag is bad for everyone. Mount almost immediately.

depends on the platform.

Great game on all plat forms. Of course it is best on pc though but I have it for xbox 360. I have drove 40$ into this game not including buying the game itself. The lag can be bad at times but not all the time. On console it has frame rate drops but it is still fun. It happens mostly at arkfalls. But hey as long as there is no subscription its fine with me. I have put more than 300+ hours in this game alone since day one release.

Edit: There are mounts but they are cars. But idk about the population with european servers for I am on NA servers.

I've chosen to put over 140$ into it so I would say it is. But the truth is you will have to look at the forums, or just get the game and see for yourself. IF you buy it at gamestop and do not use the codes you can return it within 7 days with a refund, supposedly no questions asked, even though they will want to know why it was returned. Normally just telling them I hated it, works.

Does the DLC add up to atleast A expansion worth of content, or is it just random stuff?

This game is also on console, so you will not get the tradition expansion Pc gamers are used too! Instead you get what console gamers call the norm, even though we even hate it at times.

Here's a link to a great site, starting with the lists of the current/announced dlc.

To the right of each Dlc in that list is an information button. I suggest you view it for each dlc, and then enjoy the site.

As for content, remember each Dlc is 10 dollars and gives you several things. Or for the same 10 dollars you can buy one vehicle or one outfit, minus helmet, in the cash(bits) store in game. With that info the dlc is a better value, in that instance.

Someone on a thread I posted said there will be a season 2's worth of content? Think thats true?

They announced they are working on it, but what that intails is unknown. We just know that we are getting episodic missions for Season 2 at the moment and everyone has access to the episodic stuff.

I mean like extension on the map and continuations of the campaign. Like what the hell happened to von boch or however you spell it.
