keep in mind the game has slowed to a cralw while we wait for the new season and the new character event.

if you want to start a game, read the news about the delta rising recruitment. its a event for new characters and should start april 2nd.

And where I thought this was the non-shitposting board

Sorry anon, but I'm not going to get on the MMO-train for a long time. That shit is like heroin to me.

Its okay anon it's not like this is the ideal time to enjoy the storyline and have fun

Did I mentioned the game feels very much like a single player game until you get to 50?

Anonymous 04/01/15 (Wed) 17:42:11 c0d05e No.9944

this is practically the last call before the new character event begins

You can install today and we can give you tips before you start your serious character

I think I'll check it out when I put my PC together.

I'm reading the links in OP right now. A good jumping-on point is often more important to me when trying out a new multiplayer game.

Anonymous 05/23/15 (Sat) 07:26:23 f58274 No.17084

I have always wanted to try this.

How playable it is as f2p? I can't for out money right now.

you won't have issues with powercreep as long as you dont do pvp

everything can be grinded in game. the zen currency can be traded for dil and you can eventually get everything in the shop by playing

the game feels very solo but all of the missions feels like a episode of a star trek series

To add to >>17183

PvP is trash, Cryptic knows it. Everytime they touch something on PvP people start sending off bomb threats and the likes.

It sadly feels like the MMO part is a addition to the game. The singleplayer missions can be pretty good though, some can even be pretty spooky even. Not going to spoil anything.

Delta Recruit even is over, woops

that spoopy mission was nerfed

cryptic thought it had too much personality.
