"Game is so crazy crowded

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The game is so overly completely crowded that it's just not fun at all.

I guess it does allow you to be lazy and never have to use skills if you don't want to, but nearly the entire game is people all standing on top of each other all hunting. Every group is standing shoulder to shoulder fighting for the few spawns (yes, the game does spawn fast when there's not many people, but the crowding is just making the game a complete joke).

It's almost like only the people willing to turn on auto attack and go afk half the day are getting anywhere.

I did know it would be crowded when everybody was let in, but the gameplay and game is totally different this way. In Closed Beta it was actually fun and you had to use skills and strategy to fight. Now it's just thousands of people standing along every part of the dungeons packed in so tight they're bumping each other.

This is completely crazy, and I do know that if I don't like it I don't have to play so I'll free up some room (hardly, as I can't deal with the crowding and am not one of the people standing there in one spot all day, but whatever).

So yes, I probably will take a break from the game as it's absolutely not fun like this, but is there any possibility of getting more channels? I loved the game before, but this just is completely ridiculous and is not in the least bit fun.

This isn't just in the starting areas, you'll see as you keep leveling up that each next area is just as crowded and unfun and it's going to remain like this a long time unless we get more channels.

-...its cause its pre-beta and they only have a server or two up...grow up moron or at least grow a brain.

come on no need to flame ok..leave the newbie alone.

and yes the game is crowded...i logged out because of it, but as Bambskiii
mentioned this is the closed pre beta and there are only 2 severs at the
moment

Chill, It's from the forum, and not by Fudge.

thank you, at least someone has a brain.

lmao.

its not that its from the forum, he has posted it in other GE threads here to, talk about being a party pooper

I kinda dislike the idea of 3 chars :s

When I read that I thought = LAG!

Why didn't you mention that? That comment was a bit misleading.

It's just this thread and the 9 paged one.

from what i read.

grando espada sucks and people are as frustrated on just as bad as the are with sro.

in fact someone in the forums said "wow 2 days in and its just another sro"

people are afk grinding and yea u can do that "legally" seeing as how people in the forums are saying they do it for half a day or so, all you have to do appearantly is getting the right 3 characters.

appearantly servers are overcrowded and lvl 20's are complaining they can only get like 2% exp per hour.

if you wanna d/l this game for 3gigs by all means do it, but id suggest you wait a couple months.

btw i read pre-open beta and regular will have like no new servers or whatever and will be just as, if not more, crowded.

= have fun with "bots" and racing to kill things before someone else. OR you can just afk fight.

look at my babies ... they dont want you here ! its a crowded game !

As I said in the other thread, AFK training is a MYTH. LOL Its nearly impossible. THe game is designed to make it hard. If you actually PLAYED it instead of just read the forums....

You should discover the wonderful world of AutoIt....

No crap it's crowded. Every single person is in the same level range. Later on once it's more spread out, the game will be less congested.

And if the guy knew anything he would know it's almost impossible to lvl more then 3 characters to to the cap with out the auto kill. Or unless you you a squad all day.

Crowded??? I've been at the same spot for 3 hours and mabey one or two people have walked by.

It got pretty laggy at one point for me. For about 20 minutes.

Casks are fun to attack

Using fireworks are funner.

Engineer turrets FTW.. lol And if you do EVocation's lightning on top of that? SPAM AOEs, box problem solved.

They are easy if you are there, but they mess up AFK ppl. lol

crowded? shoulder against shoulder? you just need to know where to grind.

the first few rooms of a dungeon is always crowded, the last few has very little people, maybe 1~2 families in 1 room, which is more than enough room for you to lvl.

and as far as i've experienced, there are occasionally very strong monsters (mini boss or something...). i got one on my tail and i ran into a room with all the afkers and when i ran out with only my scout alive all the afkers died too. the difference is they dont auto attack anymore when they revive because they are afk, hehe.

OMGosh I wish I had a room like that....maybe I should go deeper into the dungeon. Tomorrow perhaps

Ya there is tons of room like just a lil while ago i was in the room mobbing like 12 monstera at a time and it as only like me you and one other afker.

i totally agree with happynoobing. i was grinding today and i died because there was an over-spawn...and my poor scout couldn't handle all the healing so my ele and musk died then i ran out of the room and hid for a while. when i came back it was all fine again =) and also, i simply love my elementalist's amazing red dress. its so pretty
