I give this game a 10/10 based on my vision of it in the future after some patches

Right now Hellgate london is not worth playing. However, if you really think about it the game has tons of potential. After the bugs are fixed, HGL can address the gameplay problems and make the combat funner; and can balance the classes. Since the game is released, there will be ample people to test the game so that they can polish it into a finished product.
Hellgate london has the potential to be a 10/10 game after several months of unending development. Therefore, it deserves a 10/10 for this awesome release that will become so much better.
I would have given it an 8/10 after the patches (which I'm sure will arrive), but since Flagship studios is a new company that had to fund the game out of their life savings, we can ignore the flaws and give the game a 10/10.

a 10/10 for a bugged out game? Man you must be in a good mood!
Do you seriously mean, that your happy that you got to pay full price, for a game that's not done yet?
I agree 100%. I gave it a 9.1/10 but it could easily become a 10/10. Freshest game I've played in a long time. Play with a party of 5 friends/clanmates on a computer that can handle good graphics, it's ridiculously fun.
The MMO market is so bland and dry right now to me. Played WoW for 2 years and EQ1, CoV, Shadowbane, UO, and EvE each for a few months. And I've done so many trials and betas for other games I'd rather not think of them all right now. But yes I would gladly pay for an unfinished HG:L then any of those fully done games atm. I doubt you have even played retail of it...

Hey...
I too find myself trying Trial after trial, and beta after beta, since i have lost interest in all my favorite MMO's, and i am gonna try out HG:L too in the near future!
But i cant see the idea, in paying full price, for bugged games at all... that be Tabula Rasa (Did play the Beta!) or any other unfinished product... I find it to be a problem, that we, as consumers, get more and more unfinished products, and the developers dont seem to care much, that they're sending out these "ongoing projects"...
Before we know of it; we'll be paying for beta acces too....
Yeah I understand you completely. See I lucked out and because I was a beta tester I can play the full version for free till Nov 7. I'm 100% sure that I will buy it on that day
You have the option to play for free if you want which I will probably do for the first month or two just to make sure everything is shaping up nicely, which it is so far. We've had a Halloween Event and some new british holiday event started today. The demo sucked balls compared to the retail and I feel like everyone is basing their opinion of this game off if the dumb demo because the retail rocks.
by your hippy logic every single game ever made should be rated 10/10 based on the fact that at some point in time it might happen to get fixed and improved. Go back to your drum circle and keep you flawed logic off the internet.
Your intellegence speaks for itself. Have a little faith for the creators of Diablo you close-minded fool. Next time try to speak like you know something instead of talking out of your ass and insulting people.
P.S. Check the top scoring game on this website.... there's a reason it's there you crotch waffle.
Let me see if i get this right... it's possible to play for free, AND to pay??? What's the catch?
Mmmmmmmmm.........Waffles..........

Subscribers can create guilds or become officers, PvP arenas, frequent added content, but you can still play with the non-subs. Non-subs can only be guild members with no chance of an officer position. Supposedly the non-subs will want to pay once they hear from the subs how cool everything is.
You didn't happen to be a fan of Vanguard did you? Stating a game deserves a 10/10 on its potential just doesn't make any sense...... A good idea does not make a good game...all that matters is excellent execution and results..... (show me da money)

Uhhh...In case you haven't noticed EVERY game is number one for a few days after it releases. This is because the amount of people who have voted on it raise the percentage higher. As time goes on they inevitably lower on the board.Anyways, I'd rate HG:L a 7 out of 10. It's good, and can definitely get better.
Damn nice quote "What happens when a player leaves EVE to go play WOW? The intelligence level of both games goes up" Mad props if you made that up
This game have never even touched my "MUST HAVE" list, but now i find myself reading reviews, drooling over the idea...
Got to try this one....!

I was just giving my opinion which seems to be more of a problem to people if its good about a game then bad. I know that HG:L isn't for every player. I like fast, non-stop action... I've done enough time consuming mount riding in WoW. I don't like auto-attack combat either. Those are just two of the many reasons I gave it my rating.
Seriously, if you like action RPG style gameplay at all, you will love this game. I find it to be extremely addicting and many people have said the same.
For me, this game was easily worth the purchase and I've already been playing for months (beta). I love it now and with patches that add new functionality, it should get even better.
I recently bought Guitar Hero 3 and Bioshock for my Xbox 360. Consider just how good those two games are and the fact that I'm still spending a big chunk of my leisure time playing HGL.
The addiction in this game are:
FREE or SUBS can play! FPS mode or RPG style.
TONS of LOOT when you kill regular NPCs, open chests and RARE / EPIC NPC spawns as well.
Secret Passages with just a TREASURE ROOM full of goodies.
TONS of differents WEAPONS (Sticks, knives, Swords, Machines Guns, RPGs, Tactical Missles, SONIC ELECTRONIC BALLBREAKERS!)
Blood Guts, Heads being sawed off with guns and swords, eerie screams and just pure madness! Got friends? EVEN more fun, mobs are harder and plenty for all your online friends when teamed together. There is no NINJA looting and everyone gets their own share of the wealth.
You can UPGRADE you gear / weapons with items you breakdown whether Legendary, Rares or just regular greens.
This game has alot of potential for addiction despite the current bugs. A Most ENJOYABLE GAME!!
That is called choice. You can pay $50 for a bike or $1000 for a motorcycle or a quarter million for a Mercedes, you can also choose your pair of legs, and that is free. What's the catch? Free choice, to each his own.
I refrained from using adjectives or terms like stupid, moron, rip-off, ... I try to present an argument without provocation, as you have done the same.

I don't think so. I think the overall rating is an average of the rating each of us give. If everyone rush in and give it a 1/10, it will be 1/10 overall. The highest overall rating games are CoX, EQ2, Lotro, WoW ... all of them arer years+ old (except Lotro).
Everyone, everyone.
I was being sarcastic. You can't rate a game based on what it will be, what the company is, or what it can potentially be.
Hmm, so you are a troll. What was the point of this thread? perhaps you should have posted it in general discussion as a '' dont rate a game on potential" rather then a sarcastic, ''witty' thread on the HG:L forum.
But I find it so amusing how many people like the poster of 'the bias' think that a game can be rated on what it isn't.
No I'm not a troll, I'm making an honest argument here.
Yes you are making a valid argument but you are doing it in the wrong place, does making a thread in a forum for said game not seem like nothing but bait for a fight?
Would you happen to know the lottle number of next month? I could use some quick cash.
