Ah.. now i get to make a char. Standard customisation, not too many options but it at least looks like a person.
agreed. hopefully there will be more options later in the beta or inretail

I end up in my appy, with a toilet etc... Funny.
I try clicking stuff for a full 5 minutes and end up out of my appartement.
read the FAQ etc before playing? i agree the noob experiance sucks ingame though

Then run around another 30 minutes, without seeing anyone else.
By now i'm lost and i haven't seen a single thing to do.
i have yet to find an area with less than 10 people. the shopping areas all have close to 100 in them.

different items in different locations.

Other than that it doesnt look fun.
- None of the NPC's work atm
aye

- Theres no way to navigate to an actual store to purchase say, armor or a weapon.
player run economy... no NPC stores. ambitious... not sure how well it will pan out

- The "stamina" system is quite lame. The fact you have to pay 5 creds per second of replishment of stamina at a Med station was rather dumb (about 1-3% rejuvinated during that time so like 300+ credits to recharge stamina).
... or stand still... or sit down... or rest... or walk... or crouch. basically do anything but run or jump and you gain stamana

- The gui is rather burdening. Its simplistic yet its controls require rebinding too much.
? the chat window cant be resized unfortunatlky but other than that its all fine. and i set my controls once... oh only other annoying thing is when someone speaks in organisation lobby it beeps :p
Quote:
- There is no auto walk, or auto run button to be bound. You can bind a toggle for switching between run and walk but thats nothing special. (friends say I'm lazy, I just hate having to constantly hold several buttons to move when I just hit 1 and direct with my mouse)
ugh... thats what i hated about turn based combat RPG's... one button and sleep.

- Text is EXTREMELY small. If you have 20/20 or better vision, expect some eye soreness or headaces after playing for several hours trying to read the damn ingame fonts.
better than 20/20? impressive. but i agree. a squashed up font.

Overall it blows. I never played NC1, but the NC2 open beta hooked me in like a fish (strangely enough another term for noobs). This open beta, was a waste of 800 megs bandwidth and HDD space
your (extremely closed minded IMO) opinion is yours to decide.
