    Oh man, this is hot. I wasn't into it in the beta, but this is pretty sweet.

    I'm in game as Lonenut.

    Also, a friend got a free copy of Titan edition. Just looking at his player page makes me jealous.

    Edit: I don't seem to have gotten a title or anything for beta testing. Did I goof something up?

    Edit edit: I love League of Legends, but I have to say... the shorter games in this make it so much more appealing. Not spending 30 minutes to an hour in each game is just better.

    After playing for awhile, my primary concern is that the player base is just too small right now. I'm pretty much the only scrub online, and so it's almost impossible for me to get paired against someone of my skill level. We need more nubs!

    A problem I will help solve as soon as I am home from work....guaranteed scrubness.

    I started playing this last night, and I've had alot of fun with it. I seem to gravitate towards the healer (alchemist) which is an oddity for me. In making even the healing a skill shot I don't feel like I'm left out of the action spamming all day.

    Only problems I have with it is that I find myself queuing in the Euro servers more than not due to the lack of US players, and I haven't run into a single mic user yet so there's little communication (I've since stopped using mine). It's early on though, so that's just me whining.

    Game name is Queklain if anyone cares.

    Come on guys, the only thing this game needs is a real playerbase. It's fun, quick and pretty easy to learn.

    Starting at about 5 today, the US servers are pretty full too, and there's lots of new players. Looks like the crowds are ramping up.

    The amount of players has gone up a lot since this went into full release. You can actually find Solo MM games for the US now. It's awesome.

    I've been playing Stalker and Guardian. I want to get into Alchemist but she is not easy to play.

    Seems like a decent game, but the free shop is really restrictive.

    First online game went like this.

    I join, I'm on red team. Game creator is level 7, moves me to blue team. We're all level 1. Red team, "lol, lot's of fledglings," "fledgling killing."

    Game starts, pick characters. I only have the 4 default, so I get the healer. Blue team, "we need a tank," "healer will die."

    Round 1 starts, I shield our melee, start spamming slow and toxin. We win in about 45 seconds.

    Red team, "LAG."

    Round 2 goes much the same, a player on the red team disconnects.

    Good times?

    It really need a try before you buy option for the bloodlines. Can't expect me to drop bills on a complete crap shoot for the characters I can unlock.

    "LordMordja" all up ins. I only played a little bit because my internet's acting up (level 5, nearly 6) but I am digging this game's simplicity and skill based combat. I've been playing the free knife-y dude and I think I'll mostly stick with the fast melee characters. Trying out games against the bots, I just can't stand the tanks' slow speed.

    Welp, submitted my suggestions, and I have to believe I'm not the only one, because they're really obvious.

    Mouse sensitivity options for both the cursor and the freelook camera. And freelook on by default.

    A testing option for champions you don't have access too, because just reading their skill descriptions isn't enough to tell whether they'll be enjoyable enough to drop $ on.

    Also, replays. Going 2v1 vs igniter and alchemist and still coming out on top deserves a second viewing.

    Hey gang! Just got this for myself as a birthday present, plunked down for the Champion edition, and I'm almost level 3. The medium AI bots are actually a ton of fun to play against, and this game seems like a perfect mix of WoW arenas and LoL/HoN. I'm terrible at LoL and HoN, and am terrible at Starcraft 2/Dawn of War 2, but this seems a bit more accessible, but still just as rewarding, as far as a metagame is concerned.

    Add me up, I'm KamiDaHobo86 in game!

    I believe that the free bloodlines change every so often, like League of Legends, so you can eventually play all the bloodlines for free and pay for permanent access to the ones you like. However, I could not find any description of how free bloodlines work on the official website, so maybe I'm wrong.

    They do, but it's like every couple of weeks or so. Pretty impractical if you want to try a given hero out.

    The free hero rotation is pretty standard, and works well for LoL (though LoL has more heroes overall, so you're getting to try more each rotation).

    I think one of their main goals is to get you to agree that the game must be fairly good, so that you'll plunk down $30 for the Champion box, which comes with a decent chunk of bloodlines, lifts the coins per week restrictions, etc.

    Had my first "BE PRO!" today. Was playing a game, and one of my team mates was just flipping shit over the fact that I got killed. I'm apparently a terrible player, but I'm having fun.

    Yah, I find that still happens sometimes in this game, but fairly rarely. I get it like once every 10 games or so. I LoL or HoN it's like every single game where you lose you have a rager. I think the short match times help defuse anger.

    Game just crashed during the 3rd round (guaranteed win) of a ladder match.

    Thankfully I lucked out and got the win and no leaver markers. whew.

    Keep in mind Titan just means they decided to support the company out of the gate and buy the lifetime pass. Doesn't mean much in the way of skill.

    Also, grades are pretty much handed to you up to around 12-13 where you will find that suddenly you hit a wall. The reason a good portion of the people who are 13+ are 13+ is they have been milking some imbalances and the grade wasn't reset at release or patch.

    I'm grade 1 and I'm level 11, soooo...

    also aware that Titan is just a lifetime pass, but people who are willing to plunk down $90 are more likely to be serious about it.

    Saw the beta invite months ago, but never really bothered to take the time and get in. It looks intriguing now that it's finally released.
