Saw it at the number 5 spot on Steam, seems like there's been some quick interest : )

Buying it when I go home as well, so yay!

Testing out reticule combat right now.

I swear to god if I still have to click with this new cursor I'm going to be peeved.

ok good I don't.

I loved TERA healing. I think I'll love healing in tsw now.

Unless something weird is going with assault rifle. I still don't understand how AR healing works with reticule combat. Am I forced to keybind party members party frames? Or do I just scroll over their name with the target then back to the foe?

This may now be my favourite game of the year. Although, that solo instance below the mining museum was a pain because dodge-roll is defaulted to either shift or double tap a direction, and them trip wires... them trip wires...

Showing us that you don't have to have ridiculous restrictions in a F2P MMO. Maybe someone should go tell SWTOR. It's definitely better to have subscribers have extra stuff, instead of taking away stuff from and restricting free 2 play players.

I really like their b2p model, impressive really. Im currently rather playing other games and got limited gametime but if I ever get a little extra I will get this one... or if it's extremely cheap on some steam sale :P

[jvbastel]

I played it for a while at release, and now that it's b2p, i'll most definitely play it again, one of the better MMO's I've played. I feel sorry for the people who bought a lifetime sub though, do they get a refund?

[Repefe]

Hm hm hm. Between GW2 and TSW ... b2p ftw.

[Auxis]

Just sayin', what appears after you follow the crates of squid was hilarious and horrific at the same time.

Actually, lifers get a pretty good deal. If I could afford it, I'd go lifer.

I've a quick question, in GW2, you could go back and help people lower level that you (say friends who started later) and you'd be levelled down to match the content. Is there anything like this in TSW? I'm thinking of me and some friends giving this a go, but I play more than them and am likely to go ahead in the story. If I go back to help them, will I be OP?

I know there's no levels, but will I unlock more powerful skills and just be able to destroy all the mobs?

I think they got a pretty good deal also; they effectively get all future DLC content free through points, a 20% store discount over the normal 10% for a member, a reusable 1 hour 100% xp pot (16hrs CD) and a few other fluff items. If you’re in it for a while then as long as they keep producing content at a good rate then it’s still good value and will eventually pay for itself.

Your gear level is basically your levels. And no there isn't really anything like mentoring in TSW. But you can always equip lower quality of gear if you really want to be challenged so to speak.

There’s no system like mentoring but its largely irrelevant in TSW because you won’t be penalized for doing lower content, good gear will make you pretty op in lower zones though. TSW doesn’t play the same as other mmo's it actively encourages you to go back to the lower zones to get AP which fills you're skill wheel out.

I do this pretty often. I like going back to QL2 gear and tanking Polaris with newbies to help show them the ropes, so to speak. The community in the game is really fantastic.

Definitely going to pick this up before the end of the month. I want to see if Steam does a sale on it before I buy. It would be just my like that I buy the game and they do a 50% or even a 25% off sale for the holiday.

[Marc7]

Bought this yesterday due to the VERY solid looking B2P model (one that won't ruin a game at all). So far enjoying it immensely. Damn, it's nice to play an innovative MMO for once.

hmm, appears I should do my research before posting it does look pretty interesting, indeed. Might even consider it if I can keep myself from spending tons of money on magi: the gathering and beer

The game won't let me zoom out more because I run a 32 bit windows?

You can't be fucking serious

I can't play reticule combat when my own toon takes up half my screen.

Yea moving on.

It's 2012 and you're still running a 32bit machine? You should've known better.
