Oh my God I haven't had that much fun since Darktide/AC!  The open beta pvp patch was so much fun!  Who else loved it as much as I did?

The 'No' in your poll is an interesting analogy. Not sure how many people have had the chance to sample a $5 lady of the evening. Keep in mind that in different regions, $5 means a heck of a lot more than the $5 US in the US. You get more 'bang' for your ...buck...lol

I liked it though.

I had great fun till ffa pvp kicked in (so I voted "no"). Keeping my preorder and looking forward to early access.

Keep in mind that this open beta PvP weekend wasn't representative of how Pvp will be. It was just a gankfest for some 24 hours fun.

In the various posts and interviews around the web you will see that there are rules and mechanisms to prevent ganking. I.ex: you get no xp for repeatedly killing the same player over a period of time, etc...

I haven't had that much fun in a very very long time. 

It was ok, i would have liked to have had the chance to get further away from the cities and see what else was out there but got distracted by the PvP mayhem. The spawn ganking got a bit tiresome after a while so i voted no. Not because there was FFA PvP but because it kind of hampered my exploring of the World.

Keeping my pre order and looking forward to launch day.

  Me me me !!! It was awesome!

Although I'm not much of a pvper.. I still had fun

Lvl 13 cap Tortage was ok, for newb zone, tutorial level experience. Having story driven quests for that range was nice. However, it offers zero indication how post 20 PvE will play out. So, Tortage was a complete wash as far as the good/bad, buy/don't buy calculus for the game.

Last day, Lvl 20, world is open? Gankfest 2008 made it impossible to tell if the game has anything to offer for PvE. Zones and mobs look ok. Instanced, isolated, walled off cube zonage a major turn off.

How are the world quests? Couldn't tell you, everyone was too busy either ganking or running around trying to do a few minutes of PvE before getting ganked.

If I was forced to give PvE a grade, based just on what I could see, a D+, 1 1/2 stars. Problem is, it could be better than that, but it was impossible to really find out. I managed to grind out two levels in an instanced basement, but not my idea of PvE fun.

I'm glad if gankers had a fun time. You and the gankfest probably cut initial box sales in half, but as long as you had fun...

I'm completely ambivalent about the game. What I saw in Open Beta was some potential, but zero confirmation that the game is worth a purchase. As a result, I'm very miffed at Funcom for what has to be one of the worst designed Open Beta experiences I've ever taken part in.

"Oh that was fun!" (?!?!?) NOT!

So many people whining because they played a free open beta and got ganked for a small time at the end, as Judge Judy would say "Suck it up". Saying the OB didn't help in anyway help you make a decision about AoC has to be sour grapes at being ganked, it gave you an idea of performance, graphics, combat, PvE, PvP, GUI, sound, character creation. Besides Funcom have announced they will fix the camping issues by making a character unattackable and unable to attack for a while after ressurection.

FFA was fun, for a short while. But in the long run I don't want such a gank fest all the time.

I loved it, I had 64 kills and 64 deaths lol.  Conquerors rule!
