As a QTE lover, there is a very high chance I would unironically play this.

So salem..

As for the other question. Also no more betas. Things are wrapping up. New outland map that looks good etc. New changes to a lot of things which are all good. Don't play until release.. Population has mostly quit except for hardcore guilds gvging. Basically anyone who wasn't a tryhard quit until release at this point.

Holy poo poo someone without an accent doing the voiceover?! Glad to see my money went somewhere special.

New environment looks great though. It's nice to see some new variations on weapons and armor through artifacts as well. I think despite their terrible habit of prolonging the game's release, their retarded design team that does weird poo poo(mostly Korn) for no particular reason at all, this game will be pretty good when it's finally out. Hopefully the lengthy time in alpha and beta didn't kill this on release though.

1001 Arabian dicks: Sep 16, 2013; EVE ONLINE IS MY ENTIRE PERSONALITY BECAUSE IM A FRIENDLESS SEMILITERATE LOSER WHO WILL PEDANTICALLY DEMAND PROOF FOR BASIC THINGS LIKE GRAVITY OR THE EXISTENCE OF SELF. ASK ME ABOUT CHEATING AT TARKOV BECAUSE, WELL, SEE ABOVE

How to fix the game:
1) remove/reduce zerg damage reduction mechanic
2) entering in pvp combat (like getting hit) instantly dismounts you (without locking your skills)
2.5) make the zoning invulnerability buff last for 20 seconds, but movement changes the duration to 5 seconds left. Make the 'No shield' buff last 30 seconds. Still give them 10 seconds of movement speed.
3) you cannot hop onto your mount while in pvp combat.
3.5) apply gallop to roads only, no matter if you're in combat by a mob or not.
4) logging in does not give you a 30 second invulnerability and speed buff
5) fix zoning-altf4 logoff trick
6) cut the map size in half, trying to find people more than 2 zones outside of cities isn't worth it
7) rework the crime system such that:
a) criminals can work their reputation back up somehow once below the threshold of flagging
b) criminals can respawn in and enter red cities at any city, but can't do anything once in them (if they're the lowest reputation) (they can trade for gear, access their chest, the AH, but only public buildings.)
c) dying reduces your positive reputation by a certain %, such that you can't keep naked scouting flagged people and drop their reputation to nefarious in 5 minutes.
8) make t7 and t8 rare, but not predictably rare, make them completely random.
9) make slows from gear significantly more effective, so that a single person or a small group of people can actually catch someone, without forcing people into larger groups.
10) put more AoE into the game to disincentive (naturally) zerging
11) fix the zoom-out bugs/hacks/exploits that are obviously in the game. If I can go into cheat engine, modify one memory value, and see the entire map, there is a major issue. (just reduce render range to JUST outside of screen range, so even people who cheat only get half a second of faster information, rather than twice the range of the default camera)
12) remove player chat moderators. remove the blocked player limit. this is pretty self regulating. the only time people should intervene when poo poo is said that breaks the EULA and that already happens

that's it for now thanks for listening.

I, for one, am still hoping for a jesus patch to come in and save everything. All of the fun goons played this game, and I think its more likely that this game gets a jesus patch than it is a new, fun game comes out in which all the fun goods flock to.

The thing about repeated pay-for-access betas is that you've basically already launched. Launch Day for a game with no prior access or very limited access is a big deal. Launch Day for a game that has basically been open for months on end, not so much. It'll be a bit of a bump because of the F2P angle but not that much.

Sorry but they already done spent their load.

Did they change the 5v5 territory control stuff and general anti-zerg mechanics like the AOE damage increase based on bodies hit?

I don't need a perfect game. I just want a game that's not actively anti-open world sandbox.

Official release is meaningless for games like this.

It's already released. At some point it will go free to play, which they will call "release".
