Wanna try this and see what all the fuss is about, whats the best way

download the full game from a Torrent?
download a trial version? ( what features are missing from this)
or just go out and buy it, its cheap enuff right?

Buy the game as as you get a month free i think, see if you like it and then pay the £8 a month after

Personally, don't try it as its addictive and wastes a hell of alot of time, not worth the risk imo

Save yourself! Don't do it - you'll be addicted!

It starts slow but you soon become hooked, it's like a fucking drug!

Its a good game if your willing to put in the time and effort. The rewards for playing are smaller when you start. You need to give it time to get the most from the game.

I said I'd never get that involved in a mmorpg - WoW was the first one I've ever tried and I'm playing it right now - I'm minimised whilst on a flight to a different location......

It does take alot to get the real fun out the game, and can get you hooked, but it depends on what "path" if you like, you want to do. Just dont go down the "hardcore" one, like what your mate did Kz, because yeah, you get sucked in...

I got addicted to it then got to around level 30 where its difficult to level up to 40 to get a runner thing and too slow to run about chasing missions, so I got bored. Which is a shame cos I really enjoyed it, I would play 2 - 4 hours a day though, but got bored so cancelled the subscription

It's past 60 that it does your head in. Takes days just to make it 1 level unless you play hardcore. I gave up at 62.

I'm addicted

Like Jules said, I'll never pick up another MMO ever again, I can't fall back into this pit

Buuuuuuut I'll get my Gladiator title soon and all those hours will become worthwhile....
