My buddy bought this on steam for me as a gift, anyone playing it ?

still deciding if i should get it or not.

found this game alright...

good thing is not really farming dependable ... i can level up pretty quick by doing quests

anyone else play this yet? I need something to distract me from homework and it's probably going to be this...or back to...wow...

you should just wait for Tera Online to come out in North Anerica.

^pedo much?

ya...not too sure the game is going to be anything worth waiting for from those screens...

Playing it right now.Pretty much I like the idea of having 6 different sub specs in a specific class and allow you to have several rules so you can change it anytime (say for rouge you can be range or melee + support class).At level 13 or 15 you can do these quest that allow you to learn all the sub specs of your class which is pretty nice. Lot's of combinations and things to try out. Graphics are nice(very intensive, I am using a MSI GTX 460 set to 1080 and on high I am only getting 49 to 59FPS in I set to ultra it drops to 30lish.)

What I don't like about this game is that it favors range class way too much, there are too many boss that does AoE so melee is force to get out. Also, mages have seriously mana issue unless you are into T1 and T2. Certian healing specs needs a buff as well.

Class is also not very balance atm. If you are say a marksman at low levels your dps just suck. Warrior dps is very very OP around the lvl 40 to 48 range but once they hit 50 (level cap) their dps just drop pretty bad.

Another funny thing about this game is that cleric, rouges and warrior all have a tanking spec O_p if you spec into it. Rouges and mages can also heal (They sort of have a healing spec).

Also, randomly they have these rift events or invasion that players have to kill (you also get tokens to get armors and stuff from doing it). However, sometimes it gets really annoying as you are doing quest and it happen to spwan near the mob you need to kill. If there is people there to help you kill then is fine, but sometimes there are no one there so you are kind of stuck.

Overall I give it 8.5. There are some things the game could fix but overall so far I find very little to no bug at all which is great. There are also people you pug with and people are pretty nice. As mention need good graphic card to run this game.
