**The Secret World**

Just downloading the trial now. One of the main gripes the reviews noted was that at launch a lot of the quests were broken so you didn't know if you missed something or if it was the game. Has this been fixed?

I've done about half to two thirds of all quests and I've still to find one broken, some are difficult and take quite a bit of thought. Occasionally I've thought one or two must be broken but it was more of a case I hadn't paid attention to the npc dialogue, your quest journal does not give enough information especially with investigation quests, taking notes helps.
 
I haven't come across any broken quests since issue 1.3 and i have now done just about all of them.

As said before most fo the issues I have had have been with Investigation quests and was due to me missing a step or not reading the information correctly.

Incidentally there was a live feed on MMORPG on friday where the new game director went through some of the new features, including recticle combat.

I just hope its presence in the gaming marketplace improves so it doesn't go the way of APB and others as it is a game with great potential imo, and just needs time to gain the depth of content an MMO needs to satisfy the gaming market these days.
 
They need to do something with that sub though. As much as I like the game I'm not paying a monthly sub when I only dip a toe in maybe twice a week. GW2 has ruined me in that regard.
 
Quite enjoying it actually except if I force Vsync through Nvidia panel it cripples my performance (down to 30-40fps as opposed to 50-80fps with it disabled) on GTX 680 maxed out btw!

Strangely I am quite the opposite, the minute a game goes free 2 play I lose interest. I think if i'm not paying for something I don't seem to value it.
 
Well my free trial runs out today and think I'll take the leap and sub! As much as I love both WoW and GW2 I feel like I'm in auto pilot mode and not really "enjoying" myself much so fancy something I have to pay attention too.

hmm, opposite to me, got 105 hours on dota, 200+ on LoL, 60+ on tf2 and the most I get out of my singleplayer games and most multi is around 10 hours, £6 I paid for terraria and got 120 hours out of it, the less I pay the more I play tbh lol.
 
So like Guild Wars?

Seems that way yeah. Only need to buy future content, everything that's there now will be free as long as you buy a box.

More like ToR

Nothing like TOR, i point you to this part of the link...

"Are there any restrictions to what a free player has access to?

No. You have access to all the content available right now, including all playfields, all missions; you may enter all lairs, participate in raids, learn all abilities, use all equipment and so on. "
 
Hoping this move really works out well for them (and I think it will). Such an excellent game and a breath of fresh air in the high fantasy dominated MMO world.
