Well. It is amazingly fun to play. Of course its a bit glitchy here and there but it is a beta.

What I noticed first was that.. Well its an MMO which I didnt know. Pretty good. The vehicle you get moves quite well (Quad Bike BTW). It reminds me of WOW, with you being given missions and getting a money, XP, Weapons after doing them.

The EGO system is quite intersting which is basicly the more you kill the more abiltys you get. You have a choice of 4:

Cloak: Ivisiblity with increased Melee
Decoy: Send out decoy which you can teleport onto if you want
Overcharge: Increased damage, reloads all guns
Blur: Increased Speed and Melee

All of the Above can be upgraded.

Its also Third Person not FPS Cru. It plays like a 3rd person Borderlands 2 in my opinion. Dont quote mes.

You have infinite grenades on a cool down bar and If you go down you have the choice to self revive once per life. Otherwise RESPAWN.

Classes:
They have no direct effect on the game apart from your first Primary and your outfit.

Tactitian: AR
Machinist: LMG
Outlaw: Shotgun
Survivalist: Sniper

You get a pistol as well but you get all of these weapons any way along the game so just chose ya favourite.

Pursits:
This is a challange system which gives you skill points for doing tasks like killing enemys which have been hit by others or jump shots.

Loot systems alot like BL except there isent 86 thousand.

Will update more with what I find.

My Xbox beta was messed up so I have actually been playing the PC beta and I am enjoying the game but I do not like playing it on the PC lol. The perks system is really great and all the weapons are modable (I have a scope for my pistol now) so when you find a combination you like you can really excell at it.

Ya the betas awesome after they patched the lag lastnight, all shooter with the mmo aspect of tons of other people running around in the same world, map looks huge beta only give access to 2 regions of the map which i still havent explored all of after about 12h of play, and looking at the map incuding what i cant go 2 the world looks about 10 to 12 times large than whats in the beta. All and all i highly recommend getting it on the 2nd it looks like a game the promises to stay fresh,new and fun for quite awhile.

And like metalhead said it reminds me alot of borderlands but is completely different at the same time if that makes seens. I thinks its mainly the ease of managing your skill trees and such and the continues run and gun fuctanality of it.

Ive played for a few hours and I do like the gameplay and such. Having played WoW and other MMOs significantly, the style of the game fits the MMO genre well. I haven't done any PvP yet, but I'm hoping that it is going to be awesome. They promised large-scale World PvP but from what i've seen you just queue for pvp matches and it puts you in a different instance or something? It looks great on first glance and the gameplay is smooth and pretty challenging so far.

Also thanks to Metalhead for his post above. It is very informative and I myself was going to ask about the difference between the classes when he described it succinctly.

From what I have read and experienced is that the PvP, depending on a quick match or Shadow War is 8v8 to 16v16. And the co-op events are really great! Plus you get multiple loadouts for quick switching weapons and gear. So you can have some PvP loadouts and then PvE loadouts. I think it is up to a total to five once you get enough XP.

still downlading my beta..... 60 % done hnnnngg.....

[ajar1189]

ive done a bit of pvp and i've got to say that rocket launchers are ridiculously OP. Fast fire rate with high magazine size and massive AoE damage = many kills. It really ruins the fun in PvP...I really hope it gets balanced.
