    So, am I correct in my assumption that this is basically Dungeon Defenders on a larger scale?
    Eh not really - probably a rose tinted glasses issue but I and friend played the dog out of Dungeon Defenders. The loot was well done and the progression wasn't complicated or grindy. Fortnite is a great game but it's not found itself yet, imho.

    Sort of.  It requires a lot more gathering and crafting.. more everything... different modes to complete.. more complex building.

    That's like, your opinion man, this company has not only developed one mainstream engine used for many AAA titles today, side of the ones they developed themselves under Unreal.

    I think you're a bit too obsessed with hating Fortnite, in such a wide range not even the company itself gets a pass. lol
    yeah but AAA are second rate as far as I am concerned and yes that is my opinion.

    I find AAA to be EXTREEMLY limited game play which I dont consider to be a high rate game
    Unreal engine is also used for a lot of indie titles too, including VR games.  Chances are you've played several games that have used a version of the unreal engine.

    That loss tends to be worth it though. Reliable discounts on preorders takes a lot of the sting out of a purchase, whether you like the game or not.

    Only game I ever refunded was Mortal Online... so not too worried on that front.

    why do so many of these second rate developers like to use Valves term 'Early Access' when its not on Steam Early Access, these guys have to obfuscate everything



    2nd rate developer? This is Epic Games. Hardly 2nd rate

    I was waiting for the game,they pretty much had my money,but soon as i see early access or crowd funding or kickstasrters,that game is off my list.
    Really too bad,i never for once thought Epic games would go down this deceiving fox hole.

    BTW Nitemare,don't be talking about me in a forum about gaming,or you want me to start insulting you?

    I think you correct the class list wrong, you list constructor twice!
    The secret to the loot pinatas after rank 10 is to join Shield Defense missions. All participants get a llama. That is why you see a lot of calls for those kind of missions in chat.

    This game is god awful. Advertised as an "Open world survive the night base builder" and then you get handed a piece of shit with a never ending tutorial and every single thing is an instanced mission. Trying to like it made me hate it more. Will never trust Epic Games again.

    It's like Dungeon Defenders but with less emphasis on the loot drops and massive focus on a poorly-explained base/squads/skill system.

    This game came as a surprise to me.. Hadn't read or heard anything about it until a few days before the access started.. Guess I got lucky enough never to see or hear about any "open world" hype.. It's definitely not open-world..

    The tutorial portion definitely needs some tweaking to feel more final much sooner.. Sent feedback in about that pretty quick.. As with some beta experiences, I am trying not to expect perfection right off the bat..

    But, regardless, taking the game at face-value with no preconceived notions about it has really worked in my favor.. Enjoying it a lot.. :)

    exact same thing, exact same arguement made about The Division.

    I guess these poor companies are just victims to wide spread consistent misunderstanding of what they were told...

    Reportedly they will have an open world in the future, but it was never mentioned as far as I know.  Peoples perceptions can't be helped I guess.  It doesn't help that half the people have their own opinions on what an "open world" is.

    its marketing, just like The Divsion, just like No Mans Sky was. 

    They tell journalist sites that its an 'Open World', or 'an MMO', or 'there is space stations' and then 'they' (the developer) doesnt say it but every single solitary journalism site says describes the game exactly the same way...what? by chance?...lol

    then that way if things go for shit they and their fanboy pawns can say 'we never said'

    You showed 2 sites that said it. That's hardly "every single solitary journalism site".  In fact the majority of the sites don't say anything about an open world.  Not even wikipedia does.

    ah you would like me to find more? ok will do. I was hoping not to spend a lot of time and that only 2 would do but sense you asked I shall go find some more

    here are a few more, granted not everything comes directly from journalism sites but I have to ask a compelling thought provoking question. where do people get the idea that its 'open world'? pulled from their ass?

    NICE.. a forum post, a blog post and a facebook post.  The blog post just says "open world" but then goes on to explain it's not an open world.  They other two are opinions from non-reputable gaming sites.  That you're going to these lengths (forums, blogs and non industry related facebook) should show you how it's not gaming sites stating this but people's personal perceptions.

    are you missing the forest for the trees?

    think for a second.

    1. you are wanting to trap me into a 'oh my gawd its not 'all' its just some' while in so doing engaging me to find even MORE links...
    2. your missing the forest for the trees. Yes I am sure its not 'literally' 'all' but by engaging me on that technicality what have you done? you have engaged me to look for more links...

    really?

    people got the idea that its 'open world' from some where, its not random, shit like that doesnt just happened randomly. I read a forum poster saying the same thing about the game here on MMORPG. in fact I think it was you.
