Extraction Closed Beta: first impressions

(.FROST.) #1

I can’t say much about it, as of yet, since I’ve only played for an hour, or so, but there’s at least one thing, that’s kinda strange, and that would be the fact, that your rank gets wiped everytime you disconnect.

(n4ts) #2

Kind of a useless post. But this is a huge issue which must be resolved.
I haven’t been able to play yet, so I don’t know. But I’ll check it out this afternoon and let y’all now what my experiences are with the CBT.

I can’t tell if you mean, that my post/thread is kinda useless, or that you think, that your following reply won’t bring something new to the table, in regards of my initial post. However, I’d rather had posted “my” issue on the “general changes and info from SD” thread, but I wasn’t aware of it, when I opened this thread here.

We need more people to play with ! More invitations are needed ! with better servers !

(TracyJackson) #5

Hmm, haven’t really notice the wipe since I was on for like 30 minutes. Also, SD had said that no more invitations will be sent out until they find a solution to the high pings and server issues.

I dont think that more invites will increase the active playerbase in the future. Its always the same 30 guys who play. We had some invite rounds going on in the past and it didnt improve the situation.

(.N.E.R.D.) #7

Yeah, invite 500 ppl maybe 25 will stick :wink:

I dont really get the point of this thread myself, no offence FROST :tongue: You found a bug, created a feedback thread, said there’s no feedback to give but here’s a bug! Post it in the bugs section :wink:

(NeutronXray) #9

That’s the point !!!

Instead spare the few we’re here, and no organizing drafts and cups (of a game that still in development) meaning closed servers :rolleyes:

70% of people who play these pugs think public is trash, as it is on any other game. I want to play with people I can communicate with and you will hardly ever find me on a public server. Same goes for others who play with us. So why not, thinking well outside the box here, get up off your arse and orginise things for public players? I have called people out in the past on this and naff all has been done. 5 Months ago NOTHING was being done/tested competitve wise. Just because I rolled in and sorted stuff out doesn’t mean public is dead because of it. Hell, I haven’t been doing anything recently but still the servers are empty. explain this.

No, thats not the point. You are here since 1 month, half a year ago, it was easy to get servers going, it was easy to have games. But after some changes to the launcher and the game itself, the active playerbase dropped and only the die hard fans are left. Before many new ppl get invited, SD has to fix some serious issues with the game.

[ul]
[li] Launcher should show a server list so I dont have to start the game just to see if someone is playing
[/li][li] objective mode needs proper spawn waves
[/li][li] spawn timer needs to be on the HUD
[/li][li] tweak the proficiencys so it does actually award a team having an “objective” guy
[/li][li] improve performance
[/li][li] overhaul London Bridge, Waterloo and White Chapel
[/li][/ul]
The list isnt complete, I just tried to remember the main topics which were voiced here. If those arent changed, it doesnt help if millions of players get invited because they will quit playing pretty soon.

My first impression is, that the closed beta is the same as the alpha. Anyone else?

(Kl3ppy) #13

Basically yes, except the bad servers :smiley:

What really puts a ? on my face is how bad the forum at nexon is right now. It looks like they set it up yesterday a couple of mins before the beta went live. So many things arent working as they should. Maybe I’m just spoiled by the super SD Forum.

(.FROST.) #14

Yeah, you are right. Is there already a bug thread for the “new” XT(with Nexon actually involved now and the new closed beta state)?

(potty200) #15

First impressions.

  • Was expecting more changes/bugfixes.
  • Awful, infact, the WORST set of servers I have ever played on.
  • Their forums are trash, no options to do anything, I also have no idea is someone replies to me or anything.

These points I have acted on btw. I am not just whining here about them. For those who haven’t gone to nexons forums yet the URL is: http://forums.nexon.net/extraction

Love how it’s impossible to choose a frickin username, that remotely resembles my ingame and SD-forums name. Sucktastic!

I managed to get DarkangelUK no problem :smiley:

This is it for me too. The feeling on the servers was really weird. Sometimes not hitting once while tracking someone correctly.

Don’t feel too bad. I don’t even have the name I want on these forums :smiley:
