Opening Day Rush

[Primus Palus]

I plan to take my time. I'll probably do a few missions and go try and do some side stuff while adding in some PvP. I'm not a grinder, so I'm not interested in speeding through everything myself.

I have had such bad luck on opening / launch days that I am just going to wait for the tide to let down and then log in a day or so later. The servers usually are better with less lag and more 'space'. Although this is usually because a (or several) new servers had to be opened for the players. I am not looking for another 16 hour wait to play, not kidding, 3 hour install/update, 7 hour log in, time out error, took 6 hours to go back in.

still very early days, i remember when i read this forum and it would be lucky to get 1 post every couple of days. even very very recently (week or so) its really starting to take off

Yeah, I've watched this game since E3 when they announced it, but only recently joined the community.

I'll do what i usually do on open world game,take a look at the map.Walking/driving far away and get kill because enemies got higher levels than mine. Doing some missions & talk with others arkhunters too.

Not the best example, but I remember getting on Lego Universe the day it opened. Tons of kids were everywhere, chat was spammed to the core, and you could group any mission easily, as it is for the opening day for most MMOs. I will probably do the first few missions in Defiance as quickly as possible, but then slow down and just enjoy the game.

First I have to tell my friends to get it. One seems a fair shoe-in, another iffy, the other I told if he doesn't put his dang Sci-fi prejudices aside and get it, I'll overthrow his theoretical empire.

I'm with you. I trying to "encourage" some friends to get them game. I'm not sure what's keeping them away. They seem to like similar games??
