Makes much more sense to actually have to play to earn the certification points imho.
I didn't get the whole "offline cert" thing, as it doesn't encourage you to play better or reward you for doing so - and not having certs doesn't stop you from squadding with friends who do, it just makes you slightly less powerful/versatile. |

Also, have you thought about getting Alpha Squad? It's a good deal and you automatically get Beta Access.

I liked the offline Cert idea, to a degree (should not be unlimited) well then, maybe a rested bonus for XP will do. I hope this means with gameplay certs come faster, but 1000xp per cert right now is very very slow, and not everyone on every task get the same xp. I sense a small problem here.
More unlockable certs? Nice but....most certs aren`t really that tempting that im absolutly looking forward to it, it`s like the old WoW talent syste, many performance increase, you have to take, but rarley fun or change of gameplay. Active talents like smokescreen, emp blast etc. thats fun, spending 270 points for 10 kph more as an ESF? nahhh. It`s Beta, but that is the situation right now. |

Go to 1h 42m and he starts talking about the next character wipe.

The biggest sign yet that the game will turn to trash.
What the hell am I going to get by playing the way I do now? Nothing. Woohoo. I should have known F2P games -and- MMO games always turn out to be a complete joke. You do realize this is a game killer, right? Completely destroys everything. I was fighting for AURAXIUM offline and instead they REMOVE certs offline. Oh boy. This is so stupid. Guess this really is going to be a game for no life nerds and kids addicted to it like a drug. As sad as it can get, really. |

Certs are what tweak what you can do into slightly better or more versatile roles - explosives, or a scope on your gun etc. You can play for 5 years and still be killed by someone has created their account with no certs. Nothing wrong with that. Someone with more certs isn't immune to dying to people without. |

You said your play style will be affected. How are you playing the game right now? Can you provide some feedback that can help them design a system for your play style rather than crying about how the world is ending because of said changes? I for one think the rate of cert gains solely through XP is going to be very slow. With the changes, I think support will get the short end of the stick if they don't fix the current values for certain support actions. We need some system of rested XP while logged off or a system where you can only gain X amount of certs while logged off which is then reset by you logging in for some amount of time or possibly after a week/month/etc. I don't know, but it definitely needs some discussion. |

You end up either wasting your life or spending a big amount of money. Thats F2P for you. I'd pay 60$ if I could get a game I wouldn't have to grind, I'd have access to all the stuff at release, and could just play. I've told them of fair payment option more than once on the Beta forums. Proper F2P is an option to spend time instead of money, -not- no option to pay a fair amount. But this isn't looking any different. Like all F2P games I'll have to waste my time, or hundreds of dollars. At the very least, a one-time payment (say 60$) to get both Auraxium and Cert gain offline would actually be a good deal that I'd do. I assume the rates would be decent (the previous cert gain was pretty spot on, I'd understand a slight reduction, but I'd expect to get something like flares in a day, 2 at best not a month). That would be a fair option, for starters. That, and boosters that work with in-game time, not real time. Things like that, that shows they care about their costumers. But I don't expect those things to happen, because they are fair options. F2P is never fair. Last edited by SFJake; 2012-09-15 at 05:19 PM. |
