Discord has been talking this game up to me bigtime the last couple of weeks. He has Nobody, Kestrel, Felblade, and a couple others playing now. I finally gave it a go last night and have to say,... if you like FPS games, particularly if you also like GTA3, this game is a BLAST. You get into the pvp right away. Driving is fun as hell. Shooting is fun as hell. Good amount of customization. Well worth a try.

Ok, I think my enforcer is there so I'll switch.

yeah, the enforcers seem to have a big advantage in their stuns. if it isnt on the agenda to be adressed by devs, i would say we should all switch. but im told they ARE going to nerf it somehow.

I love my stun gun plus get it so early, but its part of the less than lethal so we can arrest. Make sense for them to have it. Let the guy start his action then sneak up and stun/arrest.

im in favor of its concept. its the implementation that i object to. it needs to have some significant trade-offs in its use. otherwise its nothing less than a kill-shot. and we all know how awful one-hit kill-shots have always been in MMOs. ive been hit from rifle range with them and its game-over. no matter how far ahead i was in the fight. thats silly.
i could see if they gave a "baton" with stunning abilities. so you had to be in melee range in order to stun. its still a powerful weapon that the other faction doesnt possess so it should be offset with something exclusive to criminals.

Yea, I agree. The aim is hard, with pretty crappy range, but the higher up ones are just to much.
When I am doing a mission to stop people from looting/spraying where they remain still for a few seconds I equip it. Otherwise just go with normal gun. If you walk up to an area and don't check it when your against people you kind of deserve it.

its awesome stiz. the game has its quirks and areas that need improvement for sure. but to be able to hop in and engage in 4v4 pvp in a street-side shootout is awesomely simple fun.
though levels and associated gear improvments make a significant bonus in performance (higher health, def, and damage), it is possible for a rank 10 to kill a rank 300 if they just happen to have much better aim and tactics. wont happen much at all but its possible. the point being a group of (4) rank 50s (two days of play) can realistically take on a group of (4) 150s and win if they are that much more skillful.
auto physics are warped and oversimplified in a GTA-esque sort of way but passengers can lean out of windows and shoot at each other. so car chases make for a fun aside.
the world is wide-open as in a sandbox but only one group of 8(usually 4) or less cons red to you at a time so its far from FFA. there is no gear dropped. its all about tracking kills.
in short, DEFINATELY worth a look if you enjoy pvp-centric FPS. but might lose your interest over time.
