No one is arguing that this game doesn't look good. Heck I'll probably play it a bit because I've already sunk $20 into it and more than likely be bored of China Man Game 3.0 by then ;)

So where did it settle out on being able to vomit money at the game for additional progress? It just sped it up via order things right?

I think you can get around some caps (buy argents, convert to credits gets around that cap I think) but AFAIK there's no way to get around the spark cap

I bought a pack and played CBT1 and a little of 2. It's fun enough and seems reasonably casual friendly? The action combat was good anyway. The questing was nowhere near as mind numbing as Tera's was.

Not touching it again until it goes live though.

I did make a character called Avatar Lastname because I have no loving originality when it comes to names.

Edit - poo poo I'm slow, I just realised progress is permanent in a week or two.

This looks like it could be a fun thing to try out, is it possible for me to get the client early somehow and should I really spend about £12 on that early access pack?

If you wanna play it's worth it because you'll have about a week's worth of progress on people who don't, and the poo poo you get from it is kinda cool, a bit of starting money and gear and a bunch of sparks. If you don't have a burning hole in your pocket it won't make too much of a difference either way, though.

Spergs are kinda like picking negative class perks to allow one super powerful perk.

On one hand you got the ability to play the game non stop super grinding and extreme progression. In exchange pick three:

- Don't take showers
- Racist
- Sexist
- Super Autism
- Pedo
- Never shut the gently caress up on Mumble.
- Extreme Liar.
- Disgusting lifestyle stories
- Non stop political chat
- Attempt to educate everyone in chat/mumble
- Always angry
- Alcoholic
- Made the dumbass decision to join the military

Edit: Forgot to add the military perk

It only counts if they progress stupid fast in levels/whatever. Just having the three bad perks doesn't make you a sperg, it makes you a generic goon.

Also I would like to take this downtime to ask for some guild names. I ended up with "Goon Divine Cybermancy" but it didn't really feel right.

:siren:AS WITH ALL MMOS DISREGARDING PILES OF LOSERS THE RULES FOR GOON GUILD NAMES ARE NAMES THAT HAVE THE THREE WORDS IN THEM. THOSE WORDS ARE "GOON" "SOMETHING" AND "AWFUL":siren:

If I see another loving "Please be careful" or a loving "Dragongod Knightkings" suggestion I am gonna be outside your house.

Confirm me for "-Always Angry"
