Group combat on nightmare diff is pretty fun. You have to mix your builds together as a team, and you have to move a lot.
The combat itself is the weakest part of the game, if only it were as deep as deck building...

pretty sure you can solo through the whole game. Except "dungeons" etc. of course.
If you want a trial, pm me your email.

I wouldn't called it polished. Play some more there are some minor but irritating bugs with few major one here and there like quest bosses not spawning or other players bugging your quests.
Also it can run terribly bad on high end PC. Yesterday I have joined a battle against seasonal boss and got 20 fps on i7-4770K, 8GB of RAM and 7850. LOL
Also mighty pissing is the fact that some quest can be completed with other players that are doing the same quest but are not in the party with you and some can't and you can not be certain when it's happening.
Plus it might have an issue with AMD graphics.
Nevertheless fucking LOVE this game.

I started and finished the first mission, but I am gonna have to leave it until in the new year, kids 
But it seemed interesting, the combat is fucking gash though

On the topic of combat - well it depends on the weapon and skills you are using, some weapons are fun have certain flow to them like pistols and swords and some are not like rifle (because you basicly stand still using skills).

Yeah they are DLC or rather mission packs for existing locations plus they suppose to move the story forward or something. I'm not far into the game, sorry.

They are expansion packs.
Each is a series of quests. You get a new auxiliary weapon from some, plus a starting blue/purple ql10 item.

Is it worth it or would you say base game is enough?

The trick is to do ONLY quests - don't grind enemies, don't go out of your way to kill enemies. No - avoid them, stick to the quests and you won't tire of combat that fast. The quests, cut scenes and settings are all top notch and are often brilliant. For example, Tuvok (Star Trek) being one of the Men In Black voice actors and making a Star Trek reference was just brilliant and the game is full of funny quips like that.
Seriously, this game has the most entertaining quests by far of all MMOs I've played BUT the combat suffers from having too few skills that are worthwhile. The idea of mixing different skills according to your own play style is good, but there aren't enough skills and the skills you get later on, aren't really better meaning that you'll quickly earn the top skills you'll use until the end of the game if you stick with the same two weapons.
Having said that, the idea is that you try different weapons and add variety that way. The combat itself is quite dynamic too depending on the weapons you picked - if they went the Tabula Rasa road of manually hitting and aiming, I'd have enjoyed it more though. Locking on to enemies just isn't as fun as going for headshots.

I remember it ran ok on my ancient rig, yet i cant run wildstar which looks worse, and they said aoc ran poorly on release ( actually it ran great, ran way worse after all those " improvements tbh ")

Sigh... sooo since i got the game some days ago i cant play it..
The game just freezes on loading screen with no loading bars... Almost every time. Even if it actually loads, it will stuck on the next loading zone. did everything i can imagine.., admin rights, ports, re installs/repair, firewall/antivirus off,update drivers..
Anyone had such problems ?

Yup, same problems - with more luck though.
I switched to test server, it was how I managed to get through ads and to main menu for the first time (not sure if I used "repair" option earlier or afterwards - but I did); after that I switched back to Live.
At that point I could crawl through choppy movies, but it was taking a *while*. Tried to figure out why, but decided to use "no intro movies" ad instead (http://forums.thesecretworld.com/showthread.php?t=40931). Game still takes a bit too long to launch for my taste, but it loads and then works without issues. Well, aside from my 5850 suddenly switching into "hear me roar!" mode for no particular reason.

What a generation we live in.
How you think that wiki and info got on the web in the first place? From people making brain efforts |
