    He is actually attacking quite a bit slower then he really could be if you ask me.

    It definitely looks improved over what we have seen from the beginning.  I'm not totally sold on it, and won't be until I actually get a chance to play it for myself... which is why I REALLY hope i can get into beta before release, cuz there's no way i'll preorder otherwise.

    Then likely you'll wait till after sept 30th to play, well after when reviews come out.

    Beta should be used to test and improve the game and is not intended to be a free demo.

    Yes it should, but for testing the game you get the reward of trying it out.

    It's what we call a "win/win", as long as the tester actually tests.

    Exactly how I feel ... it still seems too slow to my liking.

    I'm somewhat if not completely a fanboi and I wouldnt flame you for that O.o

    If its too slow to your own personal liking then thats hard to argue, at most I could try to convince you why that speed is great from my own perspective but meh :P

    Current speed looks great to me, was worried it was going to be too fast... ofc too slow isnt good either but thats looks pretty good to me what I saw in the video.

     

    Thanks for linking it.

    I guess going from the movement of a snail to molasses is a big improvement...

    are you really saying that would be bad?  really?  I fire off a fireball every 1.8 seconds on my level 11 WoW mage (trial account ftw), and at least I have the excuse that I am preparing a cast in between.  In other words, I'm never just standing there like in this sad sad game.  Is WoW an action mmo?  Of course not. 

    Why are you guys defending this crap IN EVERY TOPIC.  Do you really support bad gameplay design?  Do you really want mmo's to be BORING?  I just don't understand what the agenda is with this constant defensiveness towards the ultra slow combat.

    Good thing this game isn't WoW, just saying.

    Maybe because most of the crap you are saying is your OPINION and one that we don't share?

    Personally, I dont find the combat to be boring or all that slow. But then again I'm not 14 and I don't need instant gratification to enjoy my life. Have fun playing wow, we don't care that you don't want it, really... i promise you. Bitch all you want, but we arent defending "bad, slow, poor" combat, we are defending "fun, and strategic" combat. See... it's an opinion....
