  • I will complain simply because this is not the game we were promised. Is it fun? Yes. How is the art? Fantastic, I sometimes stop and look around at some of the stuff they have on the worlds, and just sight see. And there is only one NPC that I had to stop and laugh at (because the shipwright looks like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch). I play almost every day, but that does not stop me from getting frustrated. The story in this $60 game is akin to a theatrical trailer. All it really did was make me ask questions about the game. We were promised the ability to customize. Customize our characters, our weapons, ghosts, vehicles, etc. Why do we have slots for multiple ghosts if we can only have 1? When I first saw a dead ghost I thought it would be an item that could be revived later, nope. Just a chance at a grimoire card that I have to look up online. As far as character customization, I am using the armor I have because I HAVE to. It is the only combination of armor I have been able to acquire to get the lvl I have. And as far as shaders go, they are so few that everybody looks alike anyways. Then there is weapon specialization. It doesn't exist. There are a few options to your weapons that can change their function, but that is not how they promised it. We were told our weapons would lvl up with us, gain abilities like our class abilities, and that a weapon we gain early on could become a great asset later on with investment into it. We got none of that. Minus the abilities similar to our class abilities. But then the way the game is nerfed they don't matter. With lvl caps in PvE and no lvl bonuses in PvP there is no point. Bottom line, this is a great demo. Not a great game. At least as a demo I would say, "I can't wait to play this game, I am so glad I spent money on it." Instead I am sitting here thinking, "this is a good fist act, and I can't wait to see where this goes, but the wait is rediculous." Simply, we paid for the server, not the game.

  • I have seen functions in this game that could make it better though. They are just under played by the developer. People have complained about the Queen's event, and how it was fighting the same old bosses. I know at least on mars that if you camp out in one spot and not move, then you will get swarmed by majors and ultras and scores of aliens. Until you move, then they vanish. It shows that there is programming in place for random encounters, altering the enemies that you will encounter on each map. Even shows that with the update for the Queen event they could have added some bosses/mini bosses to hint down that will only trigger if you have the bounty. But they didn't. And I have no reason to play MCC because I have already played those games, and know their stories. And they were well done where you start off with one full story. Then the following installments add to your initial understanding and build upon the created world. Like any other game. My major gripe with this game is that it just feels like we were given a book, with random pages ripped out, and the final chapter blank. But, on a positive note, I know that these guys can tell a good story through their games. I just want it to be worth my money. I like sitting in the tower and listening to what the people say, because part of it is telling you about characters of the game, or even facts within it. I find it interesting, but there is no reason that we should have to hunt down the story of a game we already played through.
