Title: Auto Assault Free 14-Day Trial
Post by: Oban on May 09, 2006, 07:10:00 PM
New record for a free trial?  Wasn't this released a few weeks ago?

Must mean it is quality.

AUTO ASSAULT® FREE 14-DAY TRIAL

https://secure.plaync.com/cgi-bin/free_trial.pl?partner=10

Welcome to the Auto Assault® free 14-day trial! Auto Assault® is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) featuring car combat on an epic scale and it's in stores now! Set in a post-apocalyptic future, you'll play as a surviving road warrior, blasting across a shattered land in your high-powered and fully armed vehicle. Take on rogue gangs, mutant beasts and other players in the fastest, most destructive MMORPG ever!

How Does it Work?
This free 14-day trial entails no obligations. It does not require your credit card information. You will simply need to provide us with your e-mail address and NCsoft® will immediately send you a 14-day trial serial code (NOTE: Only one serial code will be sent to an e-mail account), along with instructions for creating a free PlayNC™ master account. You will then use the serial code to add the Auto Assault® 14-day trial to your account.

Once your account is set up, you can download the game client from here ftp://ftp.autoassault.com/client/

All the instructions you'll need to get online, burn rubber and mow down the occasional flame-thrower wielding psycho will be sent to you along with your serial code.

At the end of the 14-day trial, you may continue to play by purchasing Auto Assault® from any leading retailer. Your characters and progess will be retained and you won't have to start again.

Your access to the Auto Assault® 14-day free trial will end 14 days after your Auto Assault® game account was created. As stated above, you can continue to enjoy playing Auto Assault® by purchasing the game from any leading retailer.

Drunk Schild commands me to respond:

DDO.

As the one who entered the fray defending Auto Assault, I'll admit I got bored pretty fast of AA after some days of childish fun.

To be fair to myself, in that defense I stated that I loved the game but the monthly fee was unjustified.
I still think that way. It can sists on everyone's hard disk for months ready for those 10 minutes of destruction without shame. Would be a perfect mindless quick game, if it wasn't for the monthly fee. Now what were they thinking?

Ironically, I heard pretty much the same about DDO. It could be be a mildly nice CRPG, if it wasn't for the monthly fee.

Optimus Prime group forming PST.

I heard the client is many Gigabytes, I think I'll start downloading it tonight and just leave the computer on until I wake up.

Worst, worst than that.
For reasons unknown, every time you apply a patch, the client DEMANDS 5 free gigabytes on your hard disk. Regardless the size of the patch.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

There are no raids at the moment in AA.
Even simple grouping (Convoy) it's 99% useless and not needed.

They are summoning big raid bosses for the next patches, apparently.

Yeah, and it was a requested feature too (rear firing weapons that is).

That's actually a form of land mine.  That shoots fire, of course.

As long as you can shoot fire out of your butt, it's all good.

Well, except it seems, it's not...
