Mine still hasn't arrived. Grr.

 

[DocBot]

Still no game... one would have thought that play.com would at least _try_ to get the preordered games out fairly quick.

 

[Nanor]

I got mine in 2 days. Play seem to be a bit hit and miss.

 

[Ronin Storm]

Seems like pre-orders aren't working out very well at the moment, which seems stupid as they have enough time to prepare for them. :/

Commiserations DB. Hope it turns up soon!

 

[Gopha]

ahh I have looked at this game and I am soo getting this! Grrrrr I have to wait until I get paid at the end of june though!!! Ahh im all giddy like a little girl haha, it has been a long time since a game has interested me!

 

[DocBot]

Still no game. If I don't have it tomorrow, I am never buying anything from play.com ever again.

 

[BiG D]

Have you got in touch with support? I would be pushing for free stuff at this point...

 

[Nanor]

Play have a delightful disclaimer that you must wait 21 days before complaining before they ship you out a new one.

 

[DocBot]

Oh, and also, they've changed their delivery policy. It's 7-10 working days for international deliveries. What is the point of preordering a game, if you don't get it until 2 weeks after the release date?

Here's to hoping you get it tomorrow.

If not, Amazon? I've rarely had a problem with Amazon and if I have they've always resolved it quickly, efficiently and with minimum of fuss and if I want the same delivery terms as Play.com (free delivery, but takes a few days) then I can opt for Super-Saver delivery.

What sort of RPG is it? Is it a fantasy (WoW for instance) or is it more of a, err, I don't want to use the term 'realistic', but is it?

The characters/races you play are all humanoid.. no elves or dwarves etc.

But it's a fantasy world using conan lore. So you fight all manner of creatures using spells or swords or daggers (depends on class)

Check their main web page for info like that I guess?

It's also an MMO, Psi. So you might not be able to play it unless the PC you're on now is more than capable.

The laptop I use to go on the internet can't even run TTD, but I'm asking 'cause I want to start playing an MMO if/when I get the internet at home.

 

[DocBot]

No game today. No more purchases from me. Maybe I'll get it on monday.

 

[DocBot]

Got it! I'm playing a priest of mitra, name of Ignifiorus.

 

[Haven]

Care to do a mini review once you've played it a few days ?

I'm particularly interested in group/raid combat and guild support structures i.e. how easy it is to manage and interact with other people in a guild/raid way in-game.

I've heard lots of stuff about PvP and lopping heads off but I'm after a bit more depth of info ...

Failing that maybe nanums will post something up ?

 

[Dragon]

I've heard only bad things so far. E.g. that every area is an instance that nearly all character feats are the same etc. so I'm rather curious what you think about it ^^

 

[Nanor]

You need no review!

I'll give my thoughts later when I gather them.

and i thought nanor was going to link the the topless fighting video...
