    Default Wizardry Online Closed Beta

    So, anyone else get an invite to the Wizardry Online closed beta yet? I have to say I'm absolutely ecstatic to have gotten an invite, particularly since I almost never get invites to closed betas and this is one I've been genuinely interested in getting in on (as opposed to other MMO betas which look very "meh" to me but I sign up for them anyways). :3

    I'm pretty sure that's the point; for the game to retain the old-school feel of previous Wizardry games. What in the world were you even expecting to have a comment like that about a Wizardry game?

    Pretty much every game in closed beta is going to have things that need to be improved, hence the closed beta status. You may also want to work on your own English skills before you go throwing stones about others who need to "improved" their "stuffz". >_>

    Anyways, I'm enjoying the game so far, but I'm also keeping an open mind about it in its current form and state of development rather than just being immediately critical of it.

    the game is under NDA so there isnt much we can discuss.
    i think they dont manualy pick beta testers atm though, as the moment i signed up for beta i instantly received an email i got it.

    First you ask, and when people tell you what they think, you go out on them... lol.
    I'll just say it's not my kind of game... Feels very awkward.

    I leveled, priest,fighter,mage and thief to lv 5, the combat and skills are just mind numbing boring and slow, the combat sucks, and everything wants to ****ing kill you and you will die, traps/rock falls/spikes 1 shot kill you, mobs respawn behind you and they kill you, want loot? nope you cant have it traps on treasure chests 1 shot kill you.

    There is nothing fun about the game, feels like work and grind til you die.

    Uninstalled, F U C K this game.
    .
    I kind of agree. xD
    I love perma-death and pvp but this game... sigh, just feels to slow and weird to me.

    ok i now love this game lol, i had the same feeling at the start, slow and weird. but now im steamrolling everything in the second dungeon lol. i got familiar with the controls and skills i use, i know how to dash at the right time while knowing the enemys attack paterns. i just got a big *** spear with 60dmg destroying everything from pretty long range. :P

    once u beat a dungeon and everything becomes easy because u have experience exploring there u really get this feeling that you own this place lol, like it becomes your home :P a feeling i dont get in many games. as far i know only dark souls and endless ages gave me this feeling

    if you were reading the forums, the 51 was an error and it was actually 15
    i don't think you'd be able to get stat rolls that high as a new character, maybe with a higher soul rank but definitely not a brand new character

    dont see anywere its an error, the guy claims his level 11 has:
    375 hp
    str 24
    vit 25
    dex 22
    agi 19
    int 12
    pie 10
    luk 21

    that is with the 51 stat roll.

    would be interesting to know whether soul rank has anything to do with it though

    i didn't read through all of them but i know higher soul ranks give you exp boosts for lower levels

    Yeah mages get hard time, since they got lowest hp and good luck.

    Sony's NDA includes even mentioning you are in the CBT. All discussion should be limited to their forums and not here since the game is not a finished product guys. You signed a binding contract, legal contract, with Sony. The Least they can do is terminate your account and all games associated with it.

    If you had only started to talk about the game and your experiences in the Japanese one, then that would be a different story... But it is obvious you are talking about the US CBT under NDA.

    what are you gonna do, tell on us? none of us gave out our in-game names or posted any screenshots showing our names so you've got nothing

    oh and by the way, there's barely anyone playing most of the time because they've still hardly let anyone into the game, and there's maybe 50? people on the official forums, so it's pointless to even go there

    Hey guys. Been trying really hard to get into this game. If you tried it and didn't like it PM me. I will buy your account off from you for a couple hundred (looking for two accounts actually for both my son and I to play).

    Actually surprised I didn't get into the beta. I have both max level EQ and EQ2 accounts and still not invite.. They haven't posted anything on twitter for facebook since Friday either (and I have been watching it like a hawk trying to get a beta key).

    Anyway if you are done with this game or didn't like it please PM me. Thanks!

    LICENSING A GAME IN NORTH AMERICA != OWNING A GAME'S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

    I wish I had played either version so I could spout more hate on Sony. Soon you'll be IP-blocked from the Japanese servers.
    the jp servers have been ip blocked since the game came out there, same for a lot of japanese games like monster hunter and fez
