Allods EU - MMO

I heard that the EU closed beta 2 only started last Wednesday and it should be running for the next two to three weeks. It was supposed to be the US closed beta 2 that finished yesterday.
 
Hmm had a bash with a few chars. Seem to get to level 4 really fast with all the quests, then it really slows up ;/

Bit confusing too overall with no minimap and I'm not sure if I like the fatigue mechanic.

Yeah, levelling up to 4 is slow but once you 'get' the way levelling works it feels and is a lot easier. Basically you gather fatigue as you kill monsters and get quest XP, this will then usually tip over into the next level (while the purple part of the XP bar is still way down the other side) and so you go to one of the Goblin Innkeepers and 'rest' and you get the fatigue XP which will usually take you to the next level. Sounds kinda complicated'ish but I find it's acually an interesting mechanic that works really well once you get to grips with it. I prefer it over WoW's rested XP thing, because with this Allods method your generally guaranteed a level a day as long as you go into the next level with the fatigue XP.

And killing creatures also felt slow until I released I should just button mash, it then feels (and seems) a lot faster. :D

I'm really enjoying it upto now, currently level 9 with a Templar character (I think they are classed as Paladins). I prefer The League to The Empire from what I have played so far, I just find the story/quests etc. a lot more interesting.
 
I'm finding the combat and stat system quite complex and hard to understand, been spending a few days trying to suss it out as there is little info around in non-Russian.

The important stats for you class that are shown as the *. Trying to balance them is very hard as you end up picking up different gear a long the way so balancing them based on what you are wearing at the time is difficult as it will change. Plus all this wound complexity that the monsters have and how it affects your skills. Some classes like Wardens have different stats doing different things which contradicts the tooltips so you don't really know what's doing what. Damage and healing that I've been trying seems to have a massive range on it, not like (for example) 84 - 105, it's more like 25 - 105 and I don't know if a low stat is causing that like Faith with wounds complexity but the tooltip is bugged and permenantly shows 0%.
 
Had a play last night on a Gibberling Animist.

First thing I found was that there is no option to invert the camera.

It is beta though so I'm sure that option will be added but it just ruined it for me.

I got to level 5 and then clicked some stone that put me in a bubble and took me away from the starter area... only problem was that I still had a quest to hand in and had just got to full repuation so I could buy the Blue Magic Items but I can not find anyway to get back to that zone!!

Character is called Muffalicious by the way.

Although I will probably make a new one tonight.
 
Missed out on the beta keys released so far, but I registered on the Allods site a few days ago anyway.

Just checked my email, and there's a email from one of the mods saying "happy birthday - have a key" (birthday is tomorrow)!

Well happy now :)

Lol sweet! Wonder if anybody has used the fact they give out keys near your birthday to get one ;p

It only asks for your year of birth from what I can tell, not your actual date. Shame as I quite fancy having a nose at this :(

There's a separate community site that you can sign up to as well, but n111k's link above seems to be the best method atm if you haven't got one.
 
I got my beta key yesterday, installed the game and tried logging in using my gpotatoe login but it wont let me in:(

Have you registered the key on the gpotato site? Also, when logging in, don't confuse your gpotato id with the nickname you create when you sign up.

Well if you got a US key and tried to input on the EU site, or vice versa, it won't work. Or if you registered on the US site, input a US key and are trying to login with the EU client that won't work either. So need to figure out if you got a US key with a US client, or something else :)

Hopefully not the US beta, as that's finished until after the new year I think.
