The combat in this game is [b]fucking terrible[/b]. The story and settings are kinda cool though. And there's already a thread on this.
I think I'll wait for free to play to try this out.
I like the concept but the combat looks like ass, so going to avoid this one

Its fine, don't judge a book by its cover.

Sad thing but, I'll be free 2 play really soon Imo...

Have you PLAYED it?
The combat is absolutely the worst I have ever had the displeasure of encountering.
Even the combat in a roguelike is more in-depth and controllable than this.
"play how you want to play"
offers very little customization
I keep hearing that the combat is terrible.
Why? Someone describe it to me.

It is press button, repeat. That is literally it.
Sounds like 99% of all MMOs.

It's a lot worse than that, believe me.

I have and yes its displeasing but i still like the game and i hope they improve the combat later on.
Illuminati?
Really?
[QUOTE=Hustle Bones;36538278]Illuminati?

Its a game about conspiracies and urban legends, numbnuts, of course there will be illuminati.
Theres illuminati in Deus Ex and you don't see people complaining.
[QUOTE=godlike;36538261]I have and yes its displeasing but i still like the game and i hope they in-prove the combat later on.[/QUOTE]
in-prove?
You know there is a secret world thread in the mmo section already right?

What.
Roguelike combat is generally extremely in-depth.

That was made over i year ago, so i made a new one with more information/etc

That can be said about nearly [I]any[/I] MMO.
The combat works well, and it's entertaining enough. The game world is really interesting.

This belongs in the MMO section though. Should have made a new one there.

I liked the look of this game, the concept is really appealing, much more so than your traditional fantasy/sci fi mmo. Too bad everyone says the combat, which is involved in pretty much 90% of everything you do in any mmo, sucks arse.
I am betting this will go F2P within the next 2 or so years.

No, the combat doesn't work well and it's less entertaining than watching paint dry.
Seriously, to all the guys not listening and claiming that every MMO is the same, play the game. The combat is fucking [b]horrid[/b].
Can someone explain what's so bad about the combat? From the little bit of gameplay in the OP, it didn't look so bad.
every single fight feels and acts out the same
I would buy it, but the $15-a-month subscription fee completely turned me off.

Shame too, the game looked like it had so much potential.
