I get it that a lot of you are hyped, but remember what happened to NMS...
Don't get me wrong, Em-8er will be great; but don't expect too much at the beginning.
Keep calm, and be patient.

I appreciate that. Luckily the marketing arm of the Em-8ER team is very aware of what went wrong with the presentation-to-product problems of NMS, and we understand how to avoid it.

For me what turned me away was the following.
Durability: This is not true, its mainly just for you Ronyn :D

:). So youre saying that you were personally fine with the durability to the point of permanent breakage on firefall?

pretty much, in this kind of game when you die you want to get RIGHT back in to the action, not go to town to repair and come back to find that the event is over already.

this game is very fast passed and any durability linked with combat is just not really going to work.

Interesting. If the concern is a repair system taking up valuable time, that could potentially be addressed. In some games, the repair system does not require that the player goes back to town. Or the place you respawn is the same place you can repair yourself. In either case, the repair system doesn't add any additional trips to town. Moreover, the time it takes to repair is sometimes minimal.

I think people are forgetting this is an MMO not a single player be maxed out in 2 weeks game.

Em-8ER is not a single player game but it is also not an MMO. How long it would take to reach maximum progression in Em-8ER is hard to speculate on at this time.
