The ARG is basically real world puzzles that need to be researched and solved to advance a storyline. It is done outside of the game, so no need to actually be playing TSW. Puzzle answers are posted to the forums as are the next clues in the sequence, thus, making it open to anyone to participate whether you are playing TSW or not. I have it in the public section of our TSW forums, so anyone can jump in and help.

I just tried a third time. This time, I made it halfway to the initial waypoint before the crash.

Don't know what the issue is - These are the most updated drivers that NVIDIA has to offer. I see there is a patch schedule for the game tomorrow; I'll see if that helps, otherwise, I guess that's all of the chance I'll be able to give the game.

I'm talking character concepts not power/skill builds.

Certain costumes are restricted to faction so you need different characters to get access to them, and gender also requires creating different characters and has it's own restricted costumes.

Also from what I've seen costume "sets" don't have interchangeable costume pieces. Which means we can't take something we like from one set and use it with something else. It's all or nothing.

So many character concepts, and so few character slots.



Damn City of Heroes for infecting me with Altitis!

I downloaded the free trial a day ago and I like it so far. I LOVE the present cultural references and the voice dialog. I also like that I was able to customize my power/move keys to the same keys I used in CoX Makes it for an easier transition. I am starting to understand the mechanics of using powers, building up crits and why some powers are usable and some aren't. I think, right now, my hardest thing to get used to is line of sight which is a little different from CoX. I miss the auto face opponent, but I'll get it down.

I am getting the hang of it... I am playing an elemental Illuminati at the moment.. I picked up a shot gun, but I can't seem to use it... Do I need to spend an AP point or skill point in order to use it?

I'm still in zombie town.. going to investigate the ship. I have had some fun running around learning the story and lore. It seems well written. I appreciate the missions/side missions and the journal. I think the graphics, so far, are pretty good and it's not as bloody as I was worried it would be. (I don't like gross games)

I will probably buy it tomorrow when the trial runs out. So far is seems very solo friendly.. which I like/want.

All opinions appreciated

I've watched other players make the jumps, but I can't seem to match the distance. If there's a skill I have to buy I don't mind saving up to get it.

I enjoyed the trial period so much I ordered the game after my first day. I liked the setting and the lore and decided I could live with the graphics. I did nearly every mission in Kingsmouth before moving on.

Now I'm kinda "meh" about it and haven't played much in the past 2 weeks and not at all in 4-5 days.
