I'm playing it, and I really like it. It's not a normal MMO. It's sort of a combination between a FPS and an MMO, in that the classes are more mmo'ish than FPSish in abilities.
My chars name is Syanara, and I can't remember the server name..lol!! There was only one available when I started.
The character abilities are very interesting. It has a great dynamic between chars. I think they've worked very hard on game balance.
You only have one character, and that character can have different incarnations. So for example, you may start of with a character like a WOW mage, but if you are sick of that, you create a new incarnation, and use all the Warrior abilities. Or you can mix and match. You will still have to work at buying up new abilities in a different line, but you can play your mage, buying warrior abilities, and slowly introducing them until you are playing a combo of the two or just purely a warrior. Eventually you could end up with every ability in every line.
In a way, you can be playing your character as a mage, while actually leveling up your warrior abilities. Imagine in wow, if everytime you played your level 70, you level 10 was getting xp and leveling up. Kind of like that.
There is no pve. I think this is a shame, because it is pve that helps people learn the game, gives people a break, let's them hang out, chat and do general things in a game.
So it's fast PVP, fun to play. I wouldn't play all the time, since that's not really the goal of the game. They've got the basic fighting and game balance sorted out. If the content can keep up, then I reckon it will end up a good game.!!
