    I think hours/players played would have been a better stast to give.

    This was alpha.. i'm guessing beta is going to be huge.

     

    I didn't thnk much of this game.  I got a surprise invite based on being a PSN member.  Took the plunge.  After 2 days of non-stop playing, I immediately pre-ordered the game.

     

    I can't wait until beta next month and then release in September.  Last FPS i played was Halo 2.  you can imagine that it takes a great game to bring me back to an FPS... the RPG elements and well crafted bosses/story missions are awesome.  Great Co-op experience.

     

    Didn't try to the pvp... but that's never been my thing anyway.

    I think I may have had 25% of the total Splatters with a Sparrow - I can't get enough of that.

    Wow! Useless numbers to give marketting props to a game they know many will try to get an idea if they might buy! So enlightening and totally not worthless for people to see!

    Still find it off this game is covered on this site as its not a PC game. Sure there are a few who also have console but they are traitors to the PC master race and should be shunned at every opportunity.  Also I don't see how covering this game will increase the audience for this site.

    Marketing - no bad thing.

    Clever - calling this alpha testing when the game launches in c. 3 months. I'm sure alpha used to for major building block stuff / structural stuff. However Bungie have said that the upcoming beta will have "all new content" - some justification I suppose but still! The good news is that it seems very polished.

    Super ability kills vs secondary weapon kills - now that's balanced pretty impressively
  • CrusadesCrusades Member Posts: 480
    Which makes me wonder..... balance. ... How many more hunters were created than warlocks and guardians?

    Why are you covering this? It is not a PC game. Shun then till Bungie comes to their senses and give it to the real gamers of the world.

    This game was absolutely amazing I created a Warlock and loved their Overcharge ability it was so Overpowered killed so many dregs with that ability and the Knights were hurt a whole lot by that ability.  Can't wait to see how much more powerful it can be.
