I really wanted to get into this game after I saw Totalbiscuit's 'WTF is ' show, but after a bit of reading on the forums it's safe to say this will be pay 2 win. People were discussing hundreds of dollars and such. I would be happy if someone can prove me otherwise, but until then I completely lost interest on this game.
from the way i understand it (keep in mind i haven't played the game yet, but this is how it was described to me):
1. zen is the "pay" currency
2. zen can be bought with real life money or with astral diamonds (zen can also be used to buy astral diamonds - it's apparently 2-way but there is probably a loss of some sort)
3. astral diamonds can be acquired in-game
so it looks like you can use the in-game stuff to convert to zen and buy stuff without spending money

Re point 2 there, last chance.
In STO the real money currency could be traded on an auction house for the standard in game currency. So player demand determined the exchange rate. People who needed standard currency could buy some real money currency and trade, and vice versa. Worked really well I think!

Tried the open beta for an hour or so, seems promising. Fun fighting system and good starting quests to get you going.

graphic totally looks like LotrO

A fantasy game looks like a fantasy game? Shocking.
Game is ok. Combat is interesting, but the lag when I was playing was real bad. Will see how it is once the opening rush dies down.
|
The races are lacking i think is the only issue with neverwinter i know there are tons and iv played both of them but still no race suits me very well.

Looks like I'll have to be patient for a couple of hour before I can play :p.

Server is going down at 16.00 until 20.00 so you're better of sitting outside in the sun :p

I immediately closed it after seeing that number not dropping rapidly :p. Enjoying a cold coke in the sun atm.

Isn't it another game with only servers on US ?
|
The high queue numbers are a bug, realistic numbers are about 10k atm not 100k+
I have had quite a lot of fun playing so far apart from the huge lag making it hard for me to use my block in time but the game so far is easy enough to not have made it a big deal so far.
Anyone planning on starting up a TL guild?

The que display is bugged, sometimes the que jumps to ridiculous numbers. It goes back and forth between not the que you are in to the que you actually in.

Servers are down for maintenance for the next 3 hours fyi
|
It said the servers will be down from 7 to 11 AM PST, so 3 more hours. I was having so much fun sitting in queue too
|
Oh damn, I was about to bust me all kinds of d&d nuts.

The combat is pretty fun, I found myself engaging pretty much every group of mobs I saw, trying to kill 5+ without getting hit once was quite fun/challenging while trying to never use healthpots.
Is different enough combat to make it fun. was a fan of the dodge system in GW2 so I like it here too, and I like the attacks so far.
played a control wizard, got to lvl 7 in like... hour n a half ?
leveling is fast, and fun which is another +
idk im enjoying it so far. def am seeing a lot of Pay to Win style stuff...but its more like "pay for massive advantage" I guess

What did you see that was pay to win? O_0 I haven't looked that much into the zen store, tbh. I haven't noticed anyone with an advantage over me, though.

Played it until Level9 or so with a Control Mage, then got a DC and ...14k Queue. Cya NW
