Hi, I haven't been playing long, I made an account yesterday and had a lot of fun but the more I play today the more I realize that there's a lot of really annoying aspects about the game.
1. The game doesn't play very smooth. I notice that collision with the environment is all over the place. You'll react to parts of the ground by skipping around or not being able to jump/walk on it. Also, players skip around a lot. Doesn't seem like lag (though it could be) but players seem to skip frames from time to time. This game just doesn't seem to play as smooth as a console shooter, but definitely feels like in game it should respond like a console shooter while outside of the game it should feel like an MMO.
2. Lag? My connection sucks so it could easily be on my end but I was wondering how much lag everyone else is experiencing. Sometimes it's bad, sometimes not so much. But with the progression of skills and armor it feels like it could be that my stuff isn't as good as everyone else's. Every time I walk into a HMG no matter how many times they miss just a few bullets puts me down to the floor. I'll shoot and shoot but sometimes it seems like bullets aren't doing damage or that their health is insanely high.
3. Spawns are awful. Yesterday I didn't experience anything out of the ordinary other than spawning with 1 enemy once in a while but today I've been spawning with 3 or more opponents who seem to realize that I'm going to spawn there and instantly get shredded.
4. Skill system... skill system seems awesome, like you can make one super character after a really long time... but how its currently set up is really annoying. I wasted a large portion of my skill points on accident not sure how the skill system worked at first. Now that I have used all my points, I'm having a lot less fun in this game. The cap seems really really low on an already difficult skill system. I get like 2 to 3k per match and after a couple of hours of playing you only get 50 per match. I can't use good gear now either... I'm trying really hard to get new gear and level skills because I notice a lot of other people using really good equips and are really hard to kill.... but grinding and grinding and grinding I can't even equip a level 2 assault riffle. I have the proper skill to equip it and a few skills that give me more GPU or take away the cost on weapons but I STILL can't equip this gun. I was grinding all day today trying to get this skill leveled up so I can use this dang assault riffle I bought yesterday but I STILL couldn't use it...now I'll have to grind out all day today and then all day tomorrow in order to level up this ONE skill in order to get this level 2 assault riffle.
I know they don't want people to be able to be gods within a few days but this is really aggravating. I'm trying to get all kinds of new gear but it's taking millions and millions of years just to get on par with other players let alone do stuff I want to like dual spec or add perks like faster reload for assault riffles...
5. I heard the graphics were getting upgrade but holy lord, this is a downer for me. I hope it gets patched soon. |

6. Sometimes when I'm shooting or hacking, the gun will stop aiming or the hack HUD will be removed. |

Pretty much every one of your observations are dead on. They've been made to the developers by folks in the closed beta -- sometimes over and over again. That being said -- in some areas (like how smooth the game is) it's been getting steadily better and better.
One thing it's worth considering though is that there are clear differences between the capabilities of the various drop suit / load-outs. The example everyone trots out is that you should not go up against a heavy inside his ideal range one-on-one if you don't have a competitive fit. This points out that sometimes you have to run away, get with a group, keep behind cover -- whatever.
You are right. It is that you are getting outclassed by better gear -- but maybe not the way you were thinking.
Good first observations! Welcome to the game! |

I think a reallocation system would be cool... I don't really want to make a new character but the position I'm in I won't be able to get level 2 gear (such as an assault riffle) for a few days.. |
