My local ASDA doesn't even do PC games any more - I shouted at the guy behind the counter when I found out (went to buy World at War, again).

Sorry I don't know why I put that my local ASDA doesn't have it in stock, I meant to say that my local ASDA doesn't even sell PC games either, although the next closest ASDA which is a 20 minute drive away does, although it is a bigger store.

Ive got 2 level 30's now, working on my 3rd in all honesty not got any tips. It all depends on what you wanna do :P, Just choose what you think will be fun, i would advise hand blasters for weapons.. THEY ARE AWESOME. What would you be looking to do in the game? Tank, Heal, DPS or Controller? Also there is an ingame voice comm but our guild uses Raid Call - basically a free version of vent :P.

Putting up a video on youtube later. Kinda dual comm but again we are new to commentating (if thats a word lol). It shows 3 easy achievements anyone can get to get 30 points towards a skill point!

Youtube is in the signature as you would have guessed :P

I now have:

Reepaa - Level 30
Hand Blasters
Gadgets
Super Speed
The Joker

Azeal - Level 30
Dual Wield
Fire
Super Speed
The Joker

Zai - Level 15
Hand Blasters
Sorcery
Super Speed
Circe

You seem to be doing quite well in the game now then demonx, I'm unsure what I want to do just now to be honest, what is most needed within the guild at the moment and I guess I could make a character fitting that class, I'm guessing healer? Usually I'd just jump in and go for a DPS to cause alot of damage and then I can't be ****ed creating more charatcers becuase they wren't as fun as the DPS but this time round I think I'll make a healer as it will probably be the least fun and then when I'm happy with that charatcer make some others, if that makes sense.

I'll download RaidCall just now so I'm prepared for when the game comes, didn't know Ventrilo because pay to use or did you just mean it costs money to buy a server, I could probably get a vent server for free lol, or at least a channel in one.

I'll check the new video out now, thanks for uploading.

The only type we really need are controllers so gadgets or mental :P. In all honesty, my sorc is my healer and im loving it lol its nothing like healing on any other game xD

Yeh it was the servers that are free lol RaidCall also uses less resources lol.

Dont forget to let me know when you get ingame.

Ahh right, well controller it is then, what are the duties of a controller and I'll make a post here when I get in-game.

 

[Demonolith]

Never played the game, but will...but i would have thought Controller would be a CC ( Crowd Control ). Could be wrong though.

 

[demonx]

Controller is basically CC, some damage and mainly providing a support role by giving mana back to other people in the group/raid which is to be honest a god send. lol

 

[CraiG^]

Seems not too bad, I'll roll as a Controller and get it to 30 then have fun with the other classes! Can't wait for the game to come, should have it before Friday!

 

[demonx]

Yeh im not dead set on what im playing at the moment which is why i have leveled all 4, My gadgets hero doubles dps/controller :P. When i get my healer to 30 if i enjoy that ill prob stick with it :P

 

[CraiG^]

Had a wee problem with my order because I forgot I changed my bank details to another address and typed the old one in, on play.com lol. Sorted now though just have to wait for an e-mail confirmation off them, doubt I'll get the game by Friday now, gutter!

 

[demonx]

Dam >< unlucky dude. My healer is now level 25, gonna get 30 tonight

[Xander]

Loving Fire/Brawler tbh just owning everything and really got into PvP, taking on multiple villans quite abit higher than myself and just owning them. Alot of people don;t have to concept of switching into you role at level 10 (Up on PS3 controller) so they are always in DPS mode.

Loving the Alerts etc amazing game!

 

[CraiG^]

Look like I might get the game tomorrow after all, they've posted it today depending on how long the delivery is I could have it tomorrow if not it will be monday. Fingers crossed lol.

 

[demonx]

I managed to get a video of one of our matches, basically with my sorcerer ive specced into 1h swords, respecced to damage and.. well the result is immense. Ill upload the pvp video with some music rather than commentary so it will be up tonight!

Nice, PVP looks mega fun! Got all excited this morning when the door went and it was the postman with a parcel, went down and signed for it opened, he handed it to me and I could feel that it was shoes for my old dear, gutted! Sometimes postmas comes back around 5pm with another delivery, hopefully thats the case!

 

[Shady]

craig why didnt you just buy it online and download?

got paid today thinking about buying it.

 

[CraiG^]

To be honest i should have lol but I just bought on impulse when I could I do like having the case etc, and I was going to say I'd probably end up losing the code and something would happen to my computer but there is probably measures in place to retrieve a game code to re download it lol.

 

[JealY]

Yeah there is, buy it on Steam and it's there forever - can even install on multiple computers.

If only I had thought of that at the time lol.... Ahh well Everyday is a school day.

 

[JealY]

I might pop into town & buy it when I get paid. Think it's a case I'd like to own.
