The game's been out a week, so how have you stopped playing for a week?

I've finished achievement "me + 15 clanmates in major arkfall" few minutes ago - going to make similar achievement for Shadow Wars during weekend. Also leveling 500+ EGO alt on NA server cluster (EU toon has 1200+ EGO).
Well I really loved the game.but to much stuff is broken and this patch everyone is raving on about on the 15th well i cant see that making much of a difference tbh.
The good thing is I dont have a sub so i can just pick it up again maybe a few months down the line if its still running..Im having deja vu of APB.
I really hope it fixes the damn chat system,thats a major gripe for me as it seems so single playerish.Theres no feeling of a massive community.No buzz when u log in ,etc.
PC version this is.
Nope given that I work about 40 hours a week I don't have too much time to delve into it after work so these two days off that I have give me some time to play catch up and do some missions. Plus I have fun just roaming around and doing those various quests such as derelict vehicle and such.
I'm not sure how I feel about this game in the long run. It's fun, I'll give it that, but there is no content. This is said to be an MMO, but it only has about as much content as a single player game. I'm EGO 1071, I've finsihed nearly every goal,
I'm in San Fran and simply have been holding off on finishing the main mission because I know as soon as I do there will be no point in playing anymore. The other comments hit the nail on the head in some matters, such as the co-op missions. You do the goal, get the suit, then go back maybe if you care about doing the daily for reputation. Beyond that, there is no point.
I mean... Come on, I finished nearly every single quest in the game in under 4 days. Granted, I have had a lot of extra time on my hand and put in around 8 hours each day, maybe a bit more.... But that's still insane. When I was younger and played Ultima Online and later EverQuest I worked at a gaming center that it was my job to play computer games... I put in far more time then that and still didn't come close to finishing any of their content.
After you finish the, what, 150 quests in this game? Lets be generous, 200. Being as about 50% of them is simply run, here, scan that, done. While the other 25% require t he same thing, but at least you have to fight a bit. It takes more time to travel to any of the locations half the time than it does to finish them.
So after you finish those quests, what is there left to do? Goals? If you do those while working the quests you've already finished over half of them. PVP? Now I'll be honest, I've not tried PVP yet, and it might be fun, but a game (MMO) cannot rest all it's hopes on PVP. Dungeons? Raids? see above, and there are no raids.
All I've been doing in this game lately is pvp'ing to pass the time. But I can't even do that right now because the server will drop me without fail any time I'm in a pvp match. Sometimes I'll actually make it almost all the way through a match and the game client crashes. So I think a break is in order before I uninstall and demand a refund.
no i still have a lot to do
Nope! For me, any game is something to do when I'm not tired but I don't feel like doing anything in real life. I've stepped out of early retirement to invent and market a new product or I'd be playing more than I do. And so far I've been very lucky and happy to not experience any game breaking issues like lag, crashes, or unacceptable fps, the game works better for me than most other online ones do. I'm not in any hurry at all except for the Episode missions, which I've finished solo. I like the challenge of playing solo, so not absolutely having to group is something that I like although that does make some missions more difficult. Games are a luxury for me, kind of like TV or movies. They aren't a big part of my life and they contribute nothing tangible to it (because they are nothing but pixels!) but they are enjoyment and fun and this game meets my expectations very nicely! I bought the game, then bought the season pass, and also bought $50 of bits - because I like the game so far.Originally Posted by gryphonv

finished my last quest today
now im only cycling through vendors to get the black turbine-car
for now im waiting for some kind of solo-dungeon-mode or so, so that i can kill and farm things again.
I will definately be playing this game on and off (episodic missions after each show), but unfortunately this game doesn't fiill my mmorpg need.
