Welp, time to call it a beta

played pretty regularly for the last month or so, got my necro to 95. I was just starting to get a feel for monoliths, got up to 50 corruption on one of the lvl 90 ones.

Fun game, overall. I give it a B-, but only because I had a lot of disconnects :slight_smile: Otherwise it might have been an A. Iā€™ll try out a whole new class for launch, need to figure that out.

What grade would you give the beta? If you have complaints, what are they? Iā€™m not a hard core gamer so my grade might be a little high lol

Iā€™d give it an A+ because I have good internet so Iā€™ve rarely seen a disconnect.

For a beta, Iā€™d give it an A+ compared to other betas Iā€™ve played thoughout my life. Iā€™ve has zero disconnects as well.

For a game that made OSRS look and play good, the amount of polish and detail in all fronts is pretty astounding. The game began as a passion project, now it ranks among some of the best arpgā€™s out there. B+ here, only because there is still work to be done.

Sorry for the @, hit the wrong reply!

Well, thereā€™s always work to be done on a beta, so I ignored that part. Iā€™ve only been recently playing, and not at endgame yet, but for a game that hasnā€™t been officially released, itā€™s in a much better state than most games a year after their release.

Weā€™ll see how the launch goes.

Technically it wasnā€™t a beta, it was an alpha ā€¦ a beta is supposed to be feature-complete, at least it is in professional commercial IT projects, and as the servers went down today it wasnā€™t feature complete for anyone other than the streamers who got private access to 1.0 so it was still an alpha.

Oh sweet summer child, if only good internet was the solution for disconnects. :frowning:

The game gets a B+ from me. It looks and feels awesome and hits so many sweet spots for me. But the bugs and disconnects are really brutal sometimes, and I still think it should be easier to respecc.

I would give it a B because i have had some terrible performance even with my crappy 1gig fiber hardwired connection.

Hopefully fixed in 1.0 by new servers.

It did say Beta on the opening screen when you start the game, so technically it was a Beta.

Look into unlocking empowered monoliths!

LMFAO! Buddy, Iā€™ve been in IT project management for 35 years and thereā€™s no such thing as ā€œfeature-completeā€

You play online in a full party my boi? I have a tingly feeling that you donā€™t xD

So true lol

35 years as a IT project manager and you donā€™t understand that ā€œfeature completeā€ means that it has basic coverage of the functionality intended on the full release yet that it will require future improvements and fixes.
I mean you must be great at what you are doing then xD

There now. Feel better about yourself, son?

Ah the sweet irony, any chance you murican?XD

Any chance youā€™re over the age of 15?

Oh you are then, well internet destiny was accomplished but please donā€™t pretend you have that 35 years of experience when you donā€™t have the basic knowledge as it simply looks funny.

I mean, itā€™s a beta I played for over 300 hours soā€¦
