forge posted:Grinding fame isn't nearly as bad as those who don't play the game are making it out to be. Just to be clear.. if you didn't go into a T6+ dungeon then you shouldn't post. I've done nearly 50% of all the faming I'll ever have to do with my cloth armor currently in something like 3-4 days. Currently mastery 47. It wasn't hard or difficult and I've killed more people in the dungeon than I have outside it. Grinding Skeletals is not really a thing anymore. Bosses give 4-8k fame a pop. You can kill a boss on average of one per 5 minutes. Mobs give 400-800 fame. Play July 2017 Launch or July 2018 Super For Real This Time Launch**? On a serious note, unless they cut fame grinds by like 80% then it still holds that its a really awful grind, before the real grind of top-tier gear caches begins. Do the new content mobs that I've seen in the videos give more or equal fame? Are they more accessible?

wraith_5_ posted:...hopefully the new Reputation patch helps bring that back. I mean its one thing write off 90% of the posters in this thread that did play the game, for several launches, and found that the effort/fun ratio wasn't satisfying and therefore quit - sure. It's another to think that the new patch will fix things this time, again. Glad to hear the combat grind has been reduced, but the crafting grind still seems real - with the new boss respawn timers, I assume it's easier than ever to afk at a boss spawn and farm silver to just buy gear?

forge posted:I don't see how getting to T6 crafting for helm chest boots on my alt in the first 6 days of beta is classified as a struggle. Think about that.. working towards T7 on day 6 of beta. #strugglesarereal. That wasn't a poo poo post - that was real, actual things that happened. The game was a loving disaster from launch until now (allegedly). I literally used to farm all my cash just camping dungeon bosses and some poster above said that was increased now, so I was asking a question. I know you are defensive about this Really lovely Game Until Now, and I am sorry I've offended you. On a forward note that's really good about the quick crafting xp if you truly can grind out T7 in a real life week not playing every waking moment, so much that I might play again if true. I don't really mind spending time to find targets, I just don't (and I'd say a majority of this game's target demographic) want to spend hours farming gear because it's super boring.

So I was reading a how-to guide on the current game, and it seems pretty straightforward now. The only part I didn't quite get is they suggested I use this technique to make it a bit more enjoyable as I was trying to reach T7

wraith_5_ posted:Does this position also take all of their in game direction from a poo poo poster who doesn't actually play the game? Heh. The President of Albion Online Goons: The Goon Guild of Goons From Something Awful doesn't have time to play the game. They must monitor carefully all their spreadsheets and talk in discord/slack. Really the most important part about playing Albion Online is typing in discord/slack.

Malthuras posted:I started playing at the beginning and quit after I realized that when they nerf something they obliterate it, not just a slight nerf. Think this might be a good time waster when you're bored but nothing beyond that. Well that's pretty much status quo for AO - luckily there are alot more viable options than there used to be now (but u must still grind skeltals to use anything)

Kimsemus posted:that time when our entire 50 man pvp raid was killed by two guys with aoe staves was p good It is a good argument from SI that to combat zerg-balling this kind of power should be in play. At the time of the mentioned incident the glyphs were really lovely and hard to see (this has been changed). In hindsight it's funny as gently caress, and not really a problem with the game. The game is, however, lacking in many areas outside of anti-zerg. like kill 1 million skeltals this is the game

forge posted:There is a simple rule of thumb to not getting burned by MMOs. Never play a korean MMO. Germany MMOs however are like volkswagon. You think you've got an environmentally safe car for 2 years then you find out it's causing everyone cancer and putting out 30x the smog. UK MMOs take your money and give grand promises but then only release after they hit financial trouble and you get 1/8 the game. US (after 2004) MMOs get sold to german companies or go out of business before they get released. Fixed! zug zug I think the market is dead until a solid platform is released, like spatialos but working better.

I just can't wrap my head around why they aren't using a randomly selected distribution of feedback people that covers the different sub-sections of the game. It's pretty standard procedure in software to try and hit a broad spectrum of your userbase, not just the power-users, as it were. An in-game feedback system like BaS, WoW, or SW:TOR used (when they were actually in beta lol) would probably be exponentially more useful than this continued circlejerk that is the RT.

Friends, this is why the 30-50-100bux was worth it. The continued entertainment, even after all these years of pre-Alpha BetaAlpha, has been worth it's weight time and time again. Keep being SI, SI! Here's to ten more betas!

Can this game really survive? this one time they tried to make it anti zerg by making huge aoe scaling spells based on numbers hit except zergs just used these spells in great numbers so it was a zerg multiplier, a zergiplier if you will

Just remember for the price of taking off work for a week to play AO at launch, you could just actually work and make enough money for a trip to real Germany and stay on the Rhine for a few nights. stay safe poopsockers

Kylra posted:Realtalk, if you wanna do gvg and actually do the esports territory fights you'll probably have to spend quite a bit of time unless they drastically reduced the grind since I last played. If you just wanna log on, chop trees, craft a couple items, maybe kill a couple people if you see them in the half hour you're out and aren't completely outgeared while not with a zerg then you can probably just do whatever for however long. But that's kind of true of most mmos. You'll probably want to spend a moderate amount of time at least. to be fair forge isn't fibbing when he says 4.2 is day 1, they did alot to

forge posted:What I like is how everyone poo poo all over this sad game and now that we're less than one month out from release... All the sad poo poo talkers are back going BEST GAME EVER GONNA PLAY RELEASE!! This is a terribly designed game from the ground up and will be dead in 3-6 months much like AA fresh starts, except for the die-hards. So p typical modern MMO launch. That said there is fun to be had on launch as usual and well you should have fun. I will say it is 100% not worth taking off work for, and aspiring albioners should just dick around at t4-t6 until they are bored, because going hard in AO leads to nothing but despair and misery. So yeah, I'll talk poo poo about this lovely pile of poo poo poo poo game all I want and may play for a week or two until bored. poo poo game. e: they really just need to adopt the crowfall campaign idea and wipe the game every 6 months.

I've been playing with the EQMS crew for the last week. In that week those that have never touched MOBA style combat have come far enough to spank most shitter guilds I've fought before in AO. Just the other night they started to be able to hold their own against a vet guild choke slaughter. Progression is happening fast and if you already bought this game - you might as well play with these nerds and have some fun. Come have fun in this lovely poo poo game imo

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:So is this thread just to make fun of the game or P much, it's a really lovely bad bad game that you can have fun in if you like bad games. It's like the bastard child of LoL, UO, and EVE - with the annoying parts of each bundled into a cornucopia of despair and self-loathing. That said you can channel the despair and self-loathing unto other players via killing them and that can be p fun sometimes. If you own the game already might as well do something in this dead-mmo-summer-of-2017
