Fallen Earth - post apocalyptic mmo

Is this a level capped MMO like WoW, or an infinite skillpoints system like Eve?

Still looking for a game that combines the best points of WoW and Eve to create the ultimate MMO...
 
Still playing... the problem I've realised with combat mode is where you use your mouse and ASDW keys to strafe around and keep the recticle on target (especially in melee as the enemy moves around) is that its a pain in the arse to having to press other hotkeys to fire off abilities during combat, you need 3 hands. I think this is what does my nut in about this game.

FPS style combat and a gazillion hotkeys to press just dont mix, whereas in your typical mmo you lock onto a target and enter auto attack, then just concentrate on pressing hotkeys as you dont need to aim at your targets body directly. Is it just me getting old :D ?
 
Nope, combat is very clunky, definitely the weak point of the game for me. At the moment it's not too bad with dual pistols - damage mod action before my first shot, pistol whip when they get in range, and then just pump them full of bullets.

I'm a bit wary of what it's going to be like in another 10 levels when I have enough stamina for a lot of actions per fight though. At least combat isn't the sole means of levelling, I seem to gain as much from crafting and scavenging.

If you like a bit more depth and complexity and a lot more freedom in how you develop your character, it'll keep your attention. I've played nothing else since I started at it.

I liked what you said here. :p If there's a trial I'll jump ship, can't afford to pay it and not love it just incase the now though.
 
It's about 4GB total, so however long that usually takes on your connection, combined witht the fact that it's launch day and their servers are probably getting hammered :)
 
Loving this game - got to level 9 in two days, sad I know!

Mostly crafting at the moment but will go back to visit a rifle town, probably South Burb.

Did the kill 100 zombies quest for the shotgun - getting ammo is proving a little more difficult though - need 45 ballistics to do it! Should have 30 when I get in later & 3 level 30 ammo books that should help. Will probably run out of resources by the time I get high enough to make ammo.

Got 48 in armour crafting - just got books for shoulders & helmets 1 - found an area with dogs + scrap cars which is excellent for finding ragged leather & scrap fasteners (found 18 in two cars yesterday!)

Think I'm going to have to start questing a lot more soon in Embry/Oilville/Old Kingdom as I'm fairly low on AP for increasing Int/Per so I can get higher crafting (limited to 50 at the moment)

Will get some screenshot up in the HR SS thread later.

Bit of a necro for this thread to give those of you who like post apoc themes a heads up that this game will be free to play in the near future.

Once transitioned to Free2Play, Fallen Earth will give free players completely unrestricted permanent access to every zone and instance in the game. Several types of services, items and conveniences will continue being sold in the Fallen Earth store. Subscriptions will be replaced by a tiered membership system that caters to players of all levels of engagement, and each membership will include reward points that can be used to obtain store items for free on a monthly basis.

Noticed this is featured on Steam today (not sure if it's been there a while but can't recall seeing it?). Anyone still playing it?
