I’m not much of a poster. Yet the first encounter of the Invasion has… encouraged me to post this.

I am amazed by the new monster’s models, really I don’t even want to think how much work you guys had to put in these but the LOD of them is amazing!
I wish I knew who designed and modeled those, because I am Your new fan, whoever You are mysterious designer.

Models: 10+/10

Another update without PERMANENT CHALLENGING content. Just more zerging. Le sigh…………… :/

I totally agree. The new monster’s models really shocked me. They look really awesome.

Mine: Monsters are amazing, events are fine, story is FAIL. No clarification, no twists, just some nonsense

Mine: Just more mindless zerging, story is fail, monsters do look good.

WE NEED 5 MAN CHALLENGING PERMANENT CONTENT.

Of course not, because even if they got what they wanted there would still be complaints.

Personally I can’t wait to get home and try this out.
People wanted the Living story to affect most maps? Looks like we’re getting to that point.

Elona, Land of the Golden Sun….and undead…and poison. The travel brochure lied okay?!

Another predictable story with no logic just “Hurr durr let’s just take all the enemies together and make them fight Rox, Braham, Logan, kittens, whoever. That makes so much sense, hurrrr. Someone said twists? What’s that? Intresting plot? Huh, 2013, baby, no intresting plots. Killing people? Oh, we can do that! Let’s kill innocent bypassers. And Faren will be just CAPTURED. What are you looking at? Ah, this ASURA DEVICE, I know, we used it every single living story to close plot gaps and what? Can you write something better? I doubt”

apparently you haven’t been reading the posts coming in from people completing the invasions…if you just zerg everything you will fail, gotta split up and cover the map. Alot of servers are reporting finishing with only seconds to a min or so left. Sounds like fun to me. Also in the patch notes it does say this about the invasions…

“After the Clockwork Chaos release, the invasions will continue at a less frequent pace.”

So looks like the content will be semi-permanent.

Meh. New mobs are cool, LOVE their design, and the noises they make.

Scarlet. Well. Disappointed. Her design is… not so great. Her voice however, cool. I was just so hyped for her background, her reasoning, her design… and this is what we got. She seems one-dimentional like all the bad guys we’ve had.

Cutscene was terrible, apart from the arty part at the end.

Mindless zerging around maps, okay the first time. But I don’t know if you’re aware that you have to do it 13 times (13 different maps). These events on each map seem to take around 20 minutes, and that’s only because of how many people are doing it right now. That’s a lot of time.

My first impressions are average, sadly.

If you try to zerg it, you will fail the event. It doesn’t work. Our first attempt/second attempts after we failed because people just tried to zerg it. Sadly, I had to go after that, but you cannot just zerg it. It’s inefficient and spread out across the map.

Oh! Hyperbolic grumbling. Well if you don’t like it don’t play it.

Are these open world? Are there more then 5 people? Check and Check. Its zerging. Nothing challenging about it. Everyone just spam your aoe, and if you die just wp and run back.

Are you in an alternate universe? It’s a zerg event. I’ve just done 2 zones, both completely zerged. Yes the mobs can still down you because they hit hard, but it’s pro-zerg blobbing.

To me this seems to be an ‘open air’ Crown Pavilion that you might get into if you’re lucky enough to get to the map in time.

The table is a fable.

Ok yes, it’s still zerging, but on my server we still had to split up to smaller zergs. The times we did it all as one zerg, we failed.

Zerging will get old very fast. I’m already having trouble imagining doing even 5 of those events needed to progress in the storyline.

It doesn’t feel like the world is “living”, either. A huge mob spawns, gets killed, zerg moves on. Same old, same old, and the residents of those zones think “what the hell just happened?”

Funny thing is, even if you fail, you still get the daily rewards. Its really quite sad. Its impossible to actually loose in PvE.
