Game looks to be shaping up quite well... they released a lot of info and videos at PAX East 2013 about housing, pvp (including warplots), combat design, and raiding. Looking forward to getting my hands on it soon(tm)

Cinematic was cool... i'll admit that. I couldn't stop staring at her chest textures. Get your mind out of the gutter, it's because of the blurry ass texture of the grease or whatever it is on her shirt. Just like everything else in the game. That screams WoW textures to me. Feel like i need to put on glasses or something.
Im very impressed by the models however, they look cleaner, and have more polygonial fortitude to them. However no matter how many polygons you add, the style is "WoW" style and will always considered to be as long as they use this art direction.
Good luck to everyone who got in beta.
It's shit to know I won't get in since they consider me "press"
So much for a beta invite. I wonder if they'll do another wave of them soon...
The fact that NCsoft is involved turns me off
They only have done a very small one so far... more and larger waves are coming within the next week or two.

Eh, they're just the publisher, like with Arenanet & guildwars 2 I gather.
Well publishers make huge decisions, that's why everyone hates on EA. Also, ncsoft was the publisher for GW2, not going to touch this with a 10 foot pole.
The reason they show that is so players can dodge in time.
It's the same way in The Secret World, Neverwinter, etc.
Because it's an mmo players are constantly moving forward and fighting "new" enemies so it's not really a lot of time to learn every animation/hint of an enemies attack so instead they simply show the outline before it happens to allow players to know what's about to happen and dodge.
TSW used red circles/lines if the enemeis are using an abiltiy you can dodge (IT not a homing attack/firing).
At least all throughout the first 3 main area's of the game world.
I read there's an option to turn off the telegraphs..but yea, on raid bosses it may be 'ok' but normal mobs will get old real fast..instead of looking at the mobs we are gonna be looking at the ground all the time....another great idea with bad execution perhaps
personally, i still like tab targeting ..just give me a 'chance to hit' modifier on my gear stats/food buffs etc....and nothing should be 100%...ever
then again, I'm not a fan of twitch combat anyway
I have just found most people (that I talk to about it) to be tired of it. No one I know that plays an mmo has ever said to me, "I like playing the mmo becuase the combat is fun!" .
