Did this game just get boring or what?

1. This MMO is based off 500 megs of console ram. it doesn't have 2 plus gig like most PC users.

2. Let's look at World of Warcraft. Most 'win' of any MMO and what does it have you do to entertain yourself? Push button to play whack a mole. That's it. Flying, swimming, walking, using swords, spells or guns it is all push button and wee.. for about 5 minutes. If your looking for innovation your about 10 years late for ANY game to bring something fresh. I suggest android apps.

3. This is a 3rd person PVE shooter. That involves alot more than face rolling buttons. I push one button like in real life I got one trigger to pull. I like this angle of MMO because I am sick of wow's repetition. I mean they got THE winning formula but your expecting wow mmo on current consoles with as little ram as they have? You're nuts.

The trade in value of games more goes by the amount of copies they have. I got 20 for gears and 26 for army of two. People wer returning gears like crazy.

So after spending like three days in one thread crapping on this game and its devs you decide to start up a new thread crapping on it some more as though you've never discussed it after the first has been dead for a day or two, thinking no one would notice? Begone troll, I am certainly not going to feed you and I advise everyone else here to let this thread crash and burn.

i will be 100% honest, i got a bit bored of the game when my brother and 2 other mates decided to stop playing i felt lost, BUT thankfully i found a 2nd wind and started doing my own thing( like, pursuits, contracts bit of co-op, pvp and arkfalls) i, also like to level up guns i would not normally use, But i have to admit this game is most fun while playing in a group or clan.

I don't get why you guys are complaining about this game being boring. Downloadable content hasn't come out yet.. >.>

to be honest OP sounds like sort of guy who thinks every Cod is a new and exciting game with never done before game types or graphics.
The reason the OP is more then likely not having fun is this is an MMO to be played in large groups of friends not just 5 people across a sandbox map like COD.

Not necessarily that it's boring. It's broken.
Tried pvp for first time. Constant server disconnects.
Decided to try a Shadow War while waiting for my AR to get a mod slot inserted.
We "lost" the shadow war for having more points. I read up, winner loses, loser wins.
Bah, check my items, Oh and my Assault Rifle is missing.
Oh I unlocked Explosives 101. Lets try that. Empty instance. Leave, retry. Leave, retry. Leave retry.
Ahh 7th time's a charm.
Oh look, got knocked back into a wall. Had to put on weakest shield (cant just unequip it), and turn off all -dam perks and grenade myself. Good thing I carried a spare high dam instead of just the electric one I was playing around with.
By the time I got out, the blue item next me, I got extracted elsewhere and couldnt make it back.
Everyone in Ark Falls looking like the same base white male human.
Driving and crashing into an invisible fence that needed 5 seconds to load up.
Unnecessary EGo lvls on equipment when a lvl 5 rifle will have identical stats to a 500.
Every time I zone, i get spammed about the EGO 250 perks and that I've unlocked Liberate the Lost/Explosives 101.
2 days and 100 ego later, still spammed.
And that's just what comes to mind fast.
The Von Bach misson with the locker. I had to leave and abandon 4x before it worked properly.
not to mention that map runs about 5-10fps.

And for real MMO, they need weapons that either scale in lvl with you, or get rid of this dumb max out for a weapon stopping your skill from going up. Forcing me switch to the same type of gun again to get better.
The weapon bonus randomize every log in. With minor skills as well. Weapons should have multiple lvls. greens can go to 2, blues to 3, etc.

I agree with all this.

Like it or not the original poster is right in that the game is incredibly light on directed content, and I can see as to how that would be hard on a player that needs their hand held constantly. Yes this game shares the same terribly lame quest architecture so many other games employ, but where as most games offer up hundreds or even thousands of hours of generic quests. We get about thirty in this game. The games overly simplistic nature also doesn't allow for much content via alternate builds, or the playing of even non combat centric meta games.

It definitely doesn't have the volume of more traditional fare in this genre, and no the fact that it is on a console doesn't justify that. There were games in this genre ten years ago that were offering a vastly greater scope, and all of that was on hardware that was inferior to the 360. The only limitation offered by the hardware is graphical prowess, and to be honest this game doesn't look too hot anyway.

Look I am not ragging on the game it is after all basically a large persistent world version of Crackdown, and I actually enjoyed that game. The problem we have here is a sandbox game with very limited means for us to really exploit that dynamic. Basically a lot of us are neck deep in grinding right now rather then genuine discovery, and that really shouldn't be happening so soon in a game like this. This game is basically a very mild time sink, but not much else.

Exaclty. I'm not trying to be one of them people claiming it's not MMO. I know it's different from an MMO. But it is severely lacking aspects other MMO's have.
I can show you a new fighting game. Clearly this is established when you see 2 characters beating each other up. Good, fighting game established. But what if there were no special moves? Fireballs? Supers? Combos?
Those are things you tend to expect since other fighting games have them.
A lot of the perks of mediocre. But even if I step out and pretend its more like PVE Call of Duty with a couple of boosts and some stuff to do, it is still entertaining.
It's these damn glitches. I had a few times I couldn't call my vehicle. Or it made the horn sound and all, nothing spawned. I had to exit the game and go back in.
And even with the retail price, I'm being assaulted by an in game store already for outfits and other stuff.
Cosmetics in F2P is common now, but with this having a retail price, and $10+ for an outfit? Har har
