Black Desert Online

In fairness, there were a lot of advertisements over it stating any pre orders after X would not get early access.

It's a shame, but oh well.

im not a forum goer mate, probably the same as a lot of people. I just play the game. I don't actively go looking at news items, I went to the buy page, said nothing about not getting access to explorers packs after the 26th. Told me in bold print pre-order now to get early access after the 28th, that's the issue.

Ahhhh, that is VERY cheeky then. Didn't know the last part.
 
Only just got in to see all this, seems a bit underhand not to give early access for pre-ordering even if there was small print ?

Anyone got a total idiot guide to nodes and how to link them ? I'm having massive brain failure working this out and I'll bet it's really straight forward ! do'h !

I've watched a bunch of videos on this, as I'm not 100% sure either.

I think it's like this:

*EDIT* Previous list was WRONG. Just re watching the video below, explains it half way through.

Yeah I think I'll just take my refund. This game is off to an overwhelmingly negative start.

Some people on the official forums really are laying it on thick. A miss understanding and crap information from the devs and you'd think they are only releasing 10% of the game in the beta...

It's 2 days for crying out loud people.
 
I had to go a different server to start with as RL friends decided to ignore me when I asked if we could go Alustin. Will probably make a second char soon and join you though because I was looking forward to grouping up with you lot :)

Glad to be back in game. I am getting a couple of bugs this time though, I never got any at all in cbt2. Some times I can't open my map. And the Black Spirit speech bubbles aren't closing. Other than that, it's sooo good!!

Is the FPS punch to the balls still present in towns? I hate having to dial back settings on a top end card running at 1080p (980 ti btw).

yeah exactly, I'm not crying about it, I've put in for a PayPal refund and will play on Thursday. The stuff on that forum is toxic lol, it's like it's the end of the world for some people. While I'm annoyed at the advertising surrounding buying the Pre-Order pack for early access, leading to me wasting 20 euros, I'm not going mental like most over there. It's just a game, I've played the heck out of this over the last year anyway on the Russian and Korean BETAs, I can wait two more days. It's just about the way it was advertised, now they have changed the way the pre-order pae explains the info and I've booked a day off work, that's what gets me.

Think you have a right to feel annoyed tbh, but yh pragmatic approach is best. The forums are pathetic, you have the learn to read crowd and the serious whiners, which sums up mmo communities nowadays and is partly the reason I took a step back from them about 5 years ago.

Anyway looking forward to getting a proper go this weekend.
 
Is everyone rolling on Alustin then? Would be great to join the guild once it gets up and running.

Will be jumping on tomorrow morning so hope to see some of you guys in game :)

nah, still not seeing any fps drops. I mean, it does get lower in town when it's busy, but no less than 50fps. But I didn't in cbt2 either. Have everything max at 1080p apart from high end mode checked. I have disabled other peoples lanterns and removed the photo filter if that makes a difference??
 
The OCUK Guild will be setup Thursday and will start sending people out on missions over the weekend so people can have a chance to play and get settled.

High end mode cuts down on the pop in, in game which can be quite bad.

I also reccomend turning off peoples lanterns in the menu, it looks so much better and helos a little with performance.

cheers fella , I've seen some of his vids but missed this one somehow.

Really struggling to pick a main !! The sorc is a lot of fun but it's going to be a bitch to play in PvP. Going to start a Tamer later, haven't seen anyone play one so far.
