**The Secret World**

Next weekend is the 3rd open beta weekend starting on the 15th.

In this Beta Weekend you get to play as Dragon, Templars and Illuminati, and sample the starter experience in the Seoul, London and New York hub cities.

Your adventures will also take you beyond Kingsmouth and into a massive new region known as The Savage Coast. Here you will soon discover that the very gates of hell have opened up, inviting you into an epic dungeon experience known as 'Hell Raised'. But that's not the only dungeon available; a wrecked supertanker known as 'The Polaris' has been spotted off the coast of Solomon Island, and both challenges and awesome loot awaits in this amazing outdoor dungeon.

Will probably check it out to see what the differences are between the three societies and the new areas. Tentonhammer will have some keys available at 5pm GMT on Monday.

I'm looking foward to trying this game out! Looks like it has some potential but I'm still at a loss how the "levelling" system - or lack of - works in this game.
 
You still gain experience and level up as normal, it's not like Ultima Online or Star Wars Galaxies when just using a specific skill improves it and there are no character levels at all, but if you've played Warcraft for example, just imagine you have access to every classes skill tree and when you level up you can put your skill points into any of them and develop your character however you want.

There's not as many to choose from of course but the basic choices are 3 different ranged - pistols, shotguns, assault rifles; 3 melee - hammers, swords, fist weapons and 3 types of magic - blood, chaos and elemental. Plus 3 other non combat weapon skill lines (I think) which haven't been shown in these open beta weekends yet.
