I kept having a 30 minute wait to even start downloading the client. :frown:

Guess I'll try again tonight.

I decided to play Huxley last night instead. I played CrimeCraft the night before, and while it is fun to an extent, I found that making money in the game is insanely tedious, and with the costs of items being relatively high, it wore out rather quickly. My goal was to get some better "armor (clothes)", but after I looked at the price of most pieces (being $800-1200 each), and given that over the course of the week I've only amassed maybe $1000... it was a bit disheartening. Even crafting is expensive.

I did end up looting some better weapons though. It made things somewhat more interesting on the actual game side. All in all though, playing the whole team deathmatch sort of game gets old rather quickly.

I played this a bit last night, but I found the controls pretty annoying. I guess I should tweak things a bit, but I only had a short time to play and wanted to run around and just get the lay of the land, but I ended up getting a bit frustrated with it. I went and fought in an instance for a bit and it was kind of cool (I like the third person shooter feel) but again, some of the controls, and maybe even the accuracy, felt a bit off.

Anyway, I'll give it another shot later on, but it certainly did not blow me away.
