This game has serious issues

[Miatog]

My issue with this game so far is that it is average. It's not a great shooter or a great mmo.

1) Content - There is none. Literally only about 10-15 hours of stuff to do and it's pretty much the same stuff.

We get content coming out with new episodes from the shows, so yeah already coming.

2) Weapon normalization - So no matter what sniper rifle i pick up its gonna be the same overall damage as any other. What's the point in loot if you can't get better.

I keep getting better rifles and worse rifles, not sure what you're talking about here.

3) EGO trees - Is it me or they really boring. There seems to be a huge amount of blocks that are centered around melee but who the hell purposely melees in a shooter?

When things keep getting in your face or you use short range weapons, having boosts to the melee is nice. I think it's fine honestly.

4) Game standards - Fall damage what shoot or mmo has no fall damage. What shooter these days does not have stamina loss when jumping.

The Secret World doesn't have fall damage. I'm glad for no fall damage myself, given the landscape we fight on fall damage would be a huge pain.

5) Weapons and pvp - dominated by shotguns and injectors and cloaking, everything else is worthless. Who puts a auto aim weapon in a shooter game and jump around like your on caffeine high.

haven't done PvP so can't respond to this.

6) Interfaces and general mmo stuff - filters for mods, bank space, previews for scopes, better weapon interface for upgrading weapons like before and after in looks and stats,

I honestly don't see the need for a filter. I don't understand what you mean by 'previews for scopes'.

I will agree, a bank would be nice. Specially for mods, I wish I could horde them better.

We're told what the mod does so...what do you mean by a preview for the stats? The looks thing would be nice, minor issue IMO though.

7) Ark falls - No variety whatsoever

Yeah, no variety, other than the fact there's three different kinds of hellbugs majors, scrapper majors, hellbug, scrapper, mutant, and I think 99er minor arkfalls...

8) Ego level - I don't get the point, Only used to get ego perks once you get the the perks you want it's pointless. Doesn't affect weapons because of normalization so a level ego 10 weapons will be just a s good as a 5000.

It's for unlocking things like more salvage matrix slots, perk slots, loadouts, etc. It has plenty of points.

9) Currency system - Clunky as hell why the heck are there 5?

Because only one is even a currency. Scrip is the money, ark salvage isn't really a currency it's materials for the salvage matrix. The rep things is more like using up your influence, can't trade it, not really currencies.

Fall Damage would be...incredibly frustrating for this game.

I've had mobs launch me REALLY REALLY high.

yThese posts are kinda pointless and more annoying then anything. If you put more than 15 hours into the game you will realize there is much more to this game then side missions. I enjoy the balance they created with the weapon system and as previous posters said they do become more powerful as you progress via weapon lvls and higher mods that pop up.

In its current form you really cant judge the game because if you did any research on it you should know that the game will unfold as the show does which is a badass feature, and with trion on it im sure theyre will be no lack of content on the way. If you have a problem currently you should wait and come back after a couple episodes have premiered. Orrr you can keep leveling your ego/weapon skills, stockpile currency for future mods/vehicles/weapons and be on top of all that content in he works.

The current state of the game is bug fixes becauee there is no way to predict all the bugs and hacks that will appear when hundereds of thousands are logged into a game at one time honestly and if they are workimg pretty hard at this with daily patches. I honestly would not have bought it if I didnt have faith in trion and if you really want to complain launch week look at other games with much worse bumpy launches, few examples would be D3 which had a horrid launch and as for lack of content im pretty sure 4 acts of same thing is less then this.Hell even world of warcraft had major launch problems and relativly low content **** they didnt even have enuff to lvl to max lvl quest wise.

So before making one of these major complaint threads remember what other game launches were like, this game came with much more, and big stuff to come. And also from what I read you dont have to get the dlc for the main content that they will be adding.

In my opinion, I feel the game has not even started. I feel it will not start untill the show starts. When the show starts and content is still an issue then by all means complain away because at that point it may be warranted. As far as the weaponry is concerned, there is some thought that goes in to making a weapon better than others. Just because one weapon does more damage than another does not, by any stretch, make it better. We have no idea what is going to happen especially at extremely high ego levels. So, please one more week if you are still unhappy then stop playing, tell everyone it is terrible, and complain untill you are content. I can say this because I know and realize what I like and enjoy doing is not for everyone ,and what you may dislike, someone else likes. That is the beauty of opinions, we all have them.

So would overall exploring. Quite glad this game has no fall damage.

If you want to complain about bunny-hopping, I suppose that might be valid - but I haven't played much PvP yet to be concerned with it.

[Jardian]

The only problem I have seen with the game are these wana be devs who wish to make this game something it isnt. Either play or dont its truely that simple. If you knew as much about games as you seem to think you do you would be makeing your own not gripeing about stupid shyt when your own post shows your clueless about the game.

it is a concern, but there are splash damage weapons and weapons with large bloom that may compensate. Also, what's the difference in dynamic between a jump, and a roll?

[3rdpig]

I fail to understand the whole "No content" complaint. 10-15 hours might be what it takes to finish the main story missions. But I've got 60 hours in the game and I've still got a boatload of side missions on the map, I've only completed about 50% of the goals and pursuits, new contracts appear every day, I've yet to get to San Francisco and still have some of the main story missions to go. And once the show airs new episode missions will appear every week. I haven't even played PvP or any of the co-op areas.

Seriously, I think some of you guys play with blinders on. I know one guy who burned through the main missions in Skyrim in 30 hours and complained the game was "way too short". Take the blinders off and look around, there's a LOT of stuff to do.

[Daergar]

In regards to the original post; just a massive amount of nonsense, at least half of them utter fabrications stemming from ignorance.

Just bored enough to correct one tidbit since it actually took a while before I figured it out; aside from the obvious, EGO rating on a weapon determines how powerful the bonus will/can be once you have filled the weapon's own experience bar.

1. I do enjoy the main story mission but after i get through it i do have a fear that i will be waiting on more content.

2. Can not really comment i haven't used snipers much.

3. I do agree with you the trees really aren't that interesting.

4.Trions other mmo has 0 fall damage so this is no suprise but i do agree damage should be there.

5. Again agree auto aim needs to go in pvp and balancing is needed but i can be patient there.

6. Needs some improvement for sure.

7. While i do enjoy Arkfalls i have to agree.

8.Ego needs sorted out, weapons skills is where it's at.

9.I don't really have a problem with multiple forms of currency this really is not unusual in an mmo, my problem is i have so much currency and so little i can actually do with it.

All that said i am really enjoying the game so far but do fear that once i am done with the main mission it may not have enough to bring me back.

In before fanboys swarm you both.

You have yet to add anything of value in the forums in all your 70 post, nothing but trolling.
