People tend to forget this is a Beta, it has A LOT of limitations, it is boring playing alone, but in a group things change. Played last night with harry, freiwald, Stefan and d0ysh (Bob, you were expected Sad )

Yea i felt asleep. Laughing Sad

First off, we've been playing for a good ton of hours yesterday, there are some obvious performance problems (perfect framerate just getting a huge hit for a bit, also noticed there's something wrong when switching to mouse when you right click (laggy)) and there's not a huge bit to do in the Beta. One story mission (hospital, the one you saw in every preview already) and side missions. We've been experiencing all kinds of situations, where NOTHING happens, where I extracted alone per helicopter without anyone else around and when the huge player wave hit and tons of assholes were around, so we got a good view of what was going on. I ripped apart two frenchies who killed me when I was trying to get back to the others with my loot (good one at that) and since death points are marked, I knew where they were and killed them on my own while they extracted and just took their stuff with it, such a glorious moment! Laughing Btw, "hump" is censored in this Mad

I have to say, the graphical downgrade is not as severe, probably wouldn't be able to run it if it wasn't there. The world on it's own, despite Beta-ish pop-ins looks really beautiful and has the most NY-feeling of all games so far. The lighting is spectacular, day and night switch could be better actually, not as fast as it is now (moves like 3 cm of the shadows per second!) immersion breaking. I can see me getting this game for a good price, Uplay only says it's going to be around that soon. Can't say much for the lore and story, but the side-missions and encounters are fun. Combat is, despite the Borderlands-esque play really fun, animations are very well done and cover system feels quite fluid. Killing PCs isn't as hard, with low level guns and them having good armour it's kinda useless ofc. But the gun me and Dan got, was pretty good, 5-6 shots on the body are enough, headshots are 1-2, so nearly instant death. Got all kinds of Mods that were available, not sure, except paints. I can imagine the full game having well.. 25-30 hours and some more on top (for future contents or random sessions).

My friends, lets make a play session again today. Very Happy

// Wanted to play now to level up a bit, but servers down? wtf. Embarassed

Level up and cash for the Legendary items, wanted to see how well they fare Very Happy But I would go to 12 (max) to see if there's even higher stats. Weird you don't level up in the DZ for the normal level, but I guess it's some concept.

Wanted to install Tomb Raider first though guise Razz

We will! As long as we don't leave Bob unattended around extraction points, he tends to go reckless and attacks everybody. Our group always ended up rogue in the first gameplay Laughing

Spent 4 hours in the DZ solo... man I was a wee bit irrated but finaly got the hang of it
found spots to gank the guys going rogue on me even after they become clean still
hunted them down ... now that was fun ..hunted them all over the place made one grp
of three yell on voice area com stop it just stop it... Smile the safe house in the Dz sells
sweet orange weapons for your DZ $ and running around and killing the ai you can get
some DZ keys for nice blue mods and loot from those keyed chests. had 4 min timer
for max rogue on me.... found a nice place to hide on the roof of the museum near the
safe house relatively easy to control with just one guy, but it would be a breeeze with
a grp of humper rogues

nothing better than rifle butting the rogue who shot you to finish him off

.. sweet revenge

downgrade is obvious, but it still looks good. Especially blizzards at night, best weather effects I've seen in a game so far.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

Played with the guys thoroughly. Got the two legendary guns and some blue equip. It's really really beautiful at times. It may be empty (even though there's a few people around (none in DZ except enemies, obviously), but it's an outbreak, so that's quite the point after all.

Fell through the map only once, not a single time after that. Game also picks up a little when you have access to better gear, gotta see the full game to completely judge it. If you liked the Beta to some point, it might be worth it.

I can easily see 7-8 Humpers buying the game and enjoying it. So we could have two groups pretty much. Not sure if we can meet in the game, but at least there would always be one or two available to play with.

Been playing this with a friend since yesterday, and its quite fun for a basic Beta, especially the DZ. Excellent visuals and love the NY feel with the solid weather effects.

One major gripe I have is that I wasn't able to interact with any DZ chests today despite having keys; yesterday the chests would not open because no keys/low level and today there isn't even a message Confused

Didnt have any purple. Just the one yellow (store) then blues and a green piece of armor/sidearm. T'was fun though but really boring at the end once you learn there isn't anything to "fear" from the Dark zone. I played a lot longer than I thought I had, so that's credit to the game. God I miss APB when it was new.



Nobody can go steal your primary weapons for example, just the loot you're carrying. When you extract the loot from the chopper its safe, the most tense moment is whether someone is going to try to attack you as you're about to deliver the loot. That's it basically for the Dark zone in the beta at least.
