Global Agenda No Monthly Fee

Kosmiche · 12 Aug 2010 at 13:08

just a heads up for you guys, just recently global agenda has removed the monthly subscription and now has a paymodel like guild wars.

you will be expected to pay once for future expansions and thats it.

so i think now is a good time to check this game out, there is also a free endless trial so what have you got to lose?

Going to try this can any1 confirm if this is any good

I didn't like it, but it can't hurt to give it a whirl as it's free.

Yeah, thread was in August, Gearo posted asking whether it's worth it.

Been playing this for a few weeks there isn't a great dealing of content in the game at the moment. You quest upto about level 20 then its Pve, Pvp or raids for xp. The group pvp vs pve seems well balanced and the game is good fun im surprised how much i've got into well worth the £13.64 is cost off steam.

What do you get out of it, apart from better at FPSs? I like the way Steam Achievements make me change the way I play L4D2. Does this have anything similar? Or stat tracking?

I'm not an achevement whore, I just like the way they give you something to aim for in the same way "Get to the end of the level" does.

I think it's a decent game. I have 2 main chars, lvl 43 robo and a lvl 30 something recon. What I do find most of the time though is that I always seem to be on the losing team for PVP. It's like my team are full of people who are lvl 30+ but have never played the game in their life and don't know how to communicate.

On the other hand, once you get into an agency you can start grouping up with people in there, that way you will actually have a team rather than individuals that cant kill each other.

They do have achievements in game, but they are not tied to steam. At the moment, it's pretty much just high end items that you lvl for. But agencies can participate in AvA to take control of a map which gives the agency bonuses.

What level can you play to in the trial?

Mart2912 · 10 Sep 2010 at 14:35

I think it is limited to lvl 12, but no time limit.

Kosmiche · 10 Sep 2010 at 14:55

I can confirm, play as much as you want, including the expansion content, but cant go over level 12.

krooton · 17 Nov 2010 at 09:24

I'm enjoying this, got a Robo to level 16

CliffyBiro · 17 Nov 2010 at 09:35

How much is the fee?

krooton · 17 Nov 2010 at 10:23

Dunno, I paid £13 in a Steam sale, which gives access to I believe almost all of the game.

Free trial is free but you can only level up to 12.

nice class to level specially when you get the rocket turrets

... currently lvl 23 and lvl 19 Medic..

It's a decent game to pick up and play few matches and with the quest update and Sandstorm it's definately worth grabbing in a sale.
