ESL is actually hosting a R6siege tourney in march, 50k pool for pc, 50k pool for xbone showing that mouseys on point that support from the dev/publishers side is the crucial factor; he game itself is nowhere near ready yet with big hitreg issues, desyncs and some crucial balance issues

There's gonna be an open beta from February 19th-21st, no preorder required. Looking forward to finally trying it out.

Wasn't sure about this game, but enjoyed the little time I spent playing the Beta on Friday. Completed the playable mission stuff and reached level 8 with my character, but never got a chance to jump into the Dark Zone to give that a try (meant to see if I could on Sunday evening/night, but ended up being busy and now the Beta is over -- oh well).

Spent a good 10 hours in the open beta. I really like the PvE but I don't like the PvP very much. For the PC version the performance is not too great. I was getting 35~40 FPS in the more graphically demanding areas even at the lowest possible settings barring resolution (1920x1080). For reference I have a GTX 780ti and an AMD 6100 CPU. CPU was at nearly 100% load at all times. I'm gonna wait and see how the full release is before I buy.

Seems like a pretty cool game. I wouldn't care about the PvP, myself. I assume PvP is optional? I'll definitely be waiting to see, and if it's a subscription I won't get it, period. But I would probably prefer to play it on PC... maybe. We'll see. If my brother gets it on PS4 he might drag me into it there, though if Caitlin takes an interest PC for sure. If neither of them does then I dunno... I've got tons of other games to play solo so probably don't need to spend any more money on that.

PvP is probably technically optional but I bet that's where all the best loot is.

I really enjoyed closed=beta and open beta. I will be playing this alot once it is released March 8th. PM me if anyone wants to join up. Dark Zone PVP is alot of fun, especially if you stack lots of health(Stamina).
The game was surprisingly playable and smooth on my old i7 2.93ghz, 660Ti Geforce, 12gig RAM during closed-beta. Not sure of FPS at that time, but I went ahead and ordered and installed 960 Geforce for open-beta and got 30-60fps, most of the time around 45-50fps.
The game is beautiful. Lots of visual overload and simplistic-routes until you learn the maps and alternate/hidden routes.
Various good videos: Ballad of the Rogue:
Some good(though sometimes laggy) action:
Some decent pvp action from a Counter Strike player. No music or anything fancy.
Best Rogue player I have seen yet, though he rarely aims-down-sight, and plays a pure run-and-gun game. He also has a 1 hour long video on his channel.
Great action, with some noobies mixed in:

This clip here is from closed beta and helps show some of the great chaotic fun that can happen. The Devs have since fixed some of the issues seen in video(players no longer have red healthbars when damaged, making others think they are Rogue. True Rogues have red around their name and also a red-Rogue-skull.).
I have not had this much fun in a game since Ultima Online and Darkfall pvp!

Guy takes on 6 Rogues. Starts slow as he stalks them, but well worth the wait.

Clearly I don't understand how combat works in this game, but how did they not just murder him when they were up in his face with him outnumbered? Is the TTK like way way slower than Destiny even? Seems like he just tanked. He wasn't even aiming at the primary threat half the time but taking out some guy in the distance not yet shooting at him meanwhile some guy half an inch away is unloading in his face.

Quite like what I have played so far. Got my M60, which comes with a 100 round magazine, and to top it off I add a mod to increase that. The M1 and the MP7 are nice too.

I wish I had played the beta; 3PS are hit and miss for me. I'm not dropping 75-100 ona game that I won't like the play of.

Got my first legendary, the classic M60. So I use my mod to give 17 extra rounds per magazine. Now all I need is a legendary M1.

I want to like The Division, but I'm not sold on it enough to pay full price, not now anyway.

Atmosphere and detail in the game world is off the charts. Shit just gets better the more you play.

I enjoyed the beta. A lot. Haven't bought it yet. Considering it but tempted to wait for price drop. It's destiny in a modern wasteland.

Well judging from the nonstop TOM CLANCY wall on my friends list it must be selling pretty well, doubt a meaningful discount is coming anytime soon, so you probably made the right call.

I've seen a bunch of friends playing this. Maybe about ten or so? I've also read some stuff on this, I didn't realize this game had parallels to Destiny. If so, I'm definitely OUT on this one.

From all of my research and debating if I want to drop 130 Canadian on it, it's much more Diablo3 than Destiny

That sounds potentially good... I dunno. I can't really afford it now, though. Probably the only thing I'm getting anytime soon is No Man's Sky.
