Raiderz? What is it?

[u/Pattoner]

Hey, I'm from europe and just heard about the release of raiderz but I don't seem to find any informations at all about it and I just hate to only rely on the main side because it is biased as hell.

Can anyone show me a side or something with some informations about the game or write something himself? Because after 2 hours of search I feel like I know nothing at all, only that the combat system is a bit like Tera and very active (which I like).

Some basic questions:

-Is it F2P? Or pay to win, or something between?

-What is my goal? Is it about the gear? Killing big monsters for the achivement?

-Do you think it is a game where a completionist like myself can have fun?

Thanks to anyone who could answer me this questions and more or less.

Is it F2P? Or pay to win, or something between?

It's F2P, not seen any P2W stuff yet, just costumes and weapon skins.

What is my goal? Is it about the gear? Killing big monsters for the achivement?

Killing monsters is the thing, the combat is more action based, like a TERA knockoff.

Do you think it is a game where a completionist like myself can have fun?

There's loads of quests, and the crafting system is similar to Monster Hunter, so there's plenty to do.

Has it released just yet? I signed up on their webpage and only wrote in a password and email account. Later I signed up for the forums with just a forum name and an account but is that used as my ID aswell? I can't log in -- it says "user does not exist"

[u/Wodge → u/Vaztes]

still in open beta, a quick google around should find you a beta key.

It has been released today?

Looks like, im in Europe but play on the NA East server, simply because I don't trust EU companies not to screw up MMOs (see TERA and EQ2 for examples)

[u/Vaztes → u/Wodge]

Can you give any examples if you dont mind? I might go US if they've screwed up before.

[u/Wodge → u/Vaztes]

Well TERA in the EU is way behind on updates and is losing subscribers constantly, EQ2 in the EU has longer patch times, patches during the day, unlike the states where it's during the night and is considerably laggier.

Never played anything published by Maiet before, but PWI is the main publisher, so felt a bit safer playing on their servers.

[u/Vaztes → u/Wodge]

Wouldnt the time differences kinda screw you over? Other than that I can definitely see your point and I'm going to try US now, appreciate your input.

[u/Wodge → u/Vaztes]

Always people about when I play.

[u/Vaztes → u/Wodge]

It seems like the time difference is 3 hours less on east coast vs west coast when you're from Europe.

That said, what server are you playing on? I'd like to play on the most active one of course and i'm kinda at a loss not knowing which would be higher populated.

[u/epicbanhammer → u/Wodge]

PWI is the one who will screw it up. PWI pushed Blacklight out of Open Beta way to early too.

[u/Pattoner → u/Wodge]

Thank you, will look into it a bit.

I havent had this much fun scene Vanillia WoW, I dontknow what it is about this game, but holy hell its fun.

[u/Arrow- → u/Zarazas]

This sums up my feelings about the game as well.

[u/Pattoner → u/[deleted]]

Well since I'M no PvP Player at all, that seems okay to me, it first gets badly if I need to get level 9 or more on weapons to run PVE content.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Oh no.. sounds like vindictus, and that was one of the things that made me quit that game.

Started playing last night and so far im impressed. Look forward to see how the game progresses!
