Except it can be free after 1 month if yo know what you're doing, 2-3 if you don't. And that's with 10 days of hour long playing. I would take that with 'long-arse' skill training times and free expansions over 3-4 years of constant subscription as I kind for 10 hours a day trying to get all the epics, only for Blizzard to charge me another $60 for all that time wasted, all my items obsolete and the grind all over. Meanwhile I have spent about $30 on Eve, have been playing the same amount of time, and all my gear still rocks.Uzique wrote:
No, instead it's swapped for a grind that requires you to practically subscribe to the game for 6 months before you can fly or use anything deemed 'good'. I prefer to let personal skill and self-determination acquire me good in-game items, not a game-mechanic that essentially says "Fuck off, carry on subscribing for a few months and then we'll let you have some pretty lasers to play with". It's even more of a grind, if anything, because there's no way of side-stepping or avoiding it. You're a little bitch that is forced to grind the most mundane and mind-numbingly boring skills and abilities for the first 3 months, and only then can you possibly start having actual fun. In WoW, "if you have friends established in the game" especially, it's fun from the word 'Go'.Flecco wrote:
There's no inventory tbh. You don't have 'limited' space at all. There's a guy who has gone out of his way to collect a single copy of every item in the game.
There's no grind if you have friends established in the game already. At least not a grind that requires you to spent a few hours each night in-front of the PC.
Yeah, they're getting so many apps that their servers are getting fucked up.Bevo wrote:

their website is terrible, I've had to sign up 29 times just to try and get through the individual steps of applying for testing. I cant even log in.

I got through but now they're having problems sending verification e-mails to G-mail and hotmail.
Don't worry though, the apps aren't first come first serve, and they'll be open for a while.Bevo wrote:

The sign up process/redirects are terrible.Poseidon wrote:

Yeah. It may seem like you don't get through (Also, don't use Chrome, I just used IE). but if you check your profile it should show two little ticks at the bottom.Bevo wrote:

That said, I thing I got through it. I got two little check marks next to where it says "needed for testers" and I did the system scan/etc.
This is KotOR, not EVE dude.FFLink wrote:

Yeah I'm pretty sure that beta is a long way off, and that they're just having sign-ups now so that they can sort people in advance.=NHB=Shadow wrote:
Anyone in the beta yet? I signed up 2 days ago, I want in!!!(that's what she said)
I never got one when I tried to sign up last week either. Try registering again, it seems to be working now.Winston_Churchill wrote:

It's a beta test so you're technically working for them.Sisco10 wrote:
Worked mighty fine for me, all the sign up and scanning. I´m not so fond of giving ALL my personal details though
Yeah figures, but I´m still uncomfortable with it. I don´t thing they will EVER call me, yet they asked for at least one telephone number. All the privacy disclaimers etc. are fine, but in the end, I´m still getting buggered by some low-lives calling me, asking if I want to buy some stupid lottery ticketsArc wrote:

For my phone number I always give the name of a local pizza place that closed down a few years ago.Sisco10 wrote:

I never give my mobile number, always the one which is in the phone book anyways, the fixed line.Doctor Strangelove wrote:
