When invasion forces attack a NPC area they be fighting the NPC's so even if just one player is around that area it can make allot of difference in helping the NPC quest givers defend their area. Of course you could die too but its all fun.<br /><br />I think from what i head the next Beta 6 event starts around Feb the 4th or somewhere around there. Whether one decided as a choice to play or buy the game, at least if you get a chance to get a Beta Key give the game a try at least. <br /><br />If i get any free Beta Keys like I did for Beta 5, i'll just throw them up on the site for whoever to get them first and use.Ardent Defenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13162904795741307697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7079318024484275606.post-45693440276533989872011-01-31T23:52:06.304-05:002011-01-31T23:52:06.304-05:00I'd rather talk about Tabula Rasa.

But I digress.<br /><br />I especially like the way that NPCs are allowed to actually affect game play and events in the world. No as much as TR, but impressively so, as far as other MMOs compare. It's good to see that the Beta events are attracting the attention of actual testing players, and it looks like it's working; I agree, Beta 5 looked well put together, even with the mid-series patch. I hope to see more of Stonefield in Beta 6, although I'm still not sure if I'll play for real.BMephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02745499320156194052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7079318024484275606.post-47684716028743577702011-01-31T13:18:00.600-05:002011-01-31T13:18:00.600-05:00Wow, I can't believe you got all the way to 24...Wow, I can't believe you got all the way to 24 this beta! Nice. i haven't done any of the dungeons yet, even though I've been tempted. I figure that's something I'll save for launch, though I'm glad to see your overall impressions of IT were positive.<br /><br />People are always going to talk about WoW in the chat in any new game, I think it's been like that with every one I've tried. It gets a bit better I think once you're out of the early zones, I've avoided the level 1-9 chat like the plague since that's where it seems to be worst.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
