Post your thoughts here regarding the latest online event for PC gamers. Is it worth the buy or does the whole experience make you want to cringe? Here's what some have to say:
Should you pick it up?
"Absolutely.....the different Fighting styles look different, unlike in other MMOGs, where you take different weapons but still the style looks the same. When you fight in Interlock (everytime you enter close combat with any enemy, be it with Ranged [Ranged weapons Interlock sequences look absolutely awesome....should you ever get a view at the Body Shot visual sequence, you know what i mean] or Martial Arts weaponry) there are rolls.....you roll for the fighting style you chose, the enemy rolls too, and whoever rolls high wins and gets his attacking animation. Does look awesome when someone attacks you with a pistol, you counter with a Grab move, and all of a sudden you see your char pushing the enemy's pistolhand aside, punch him once and kick him to the ground with a backflip.....pure Matrix movie feeling."
What about the cost?
"About 50 Dollars for the game itself, including the first month free......15 dollars per month after the first month, payable via Credit Card, or you can buy Gametimecards which cost about 30 dollar each, and enhance your account for another 60 days per card."
What about online experience?
"3 different main groups to join (Humans, Machines, Exile programs/Merovingion) and other non joinable mission giving Npc factions/individuals. There also is the option to not choose one of the specific factions. Very good game"
Does it compare to Wow?
"Its a fun game so far, has alot of potential. Does have some bugs.... Less than WOW in my opinion, but all MMOs ive played have lots of bugs. Its got a cool combat and skill system though. Very nice GFX."
Your favorite part of the game?
"The best part of this game is the story. You're in it. You may meet movie characters by being in the right place at the right time, or by being summoned by them. And they're PLAYERS...not just bots handing out scripted responses. I've met several main characters myself already, and it's only been a couple days since retail."
So you can actually meet NEO? Wow... POST YOUR THOUGHTS !
