I did pre-order this the other day. I must say, I haven't been this pumped for a game in a while. If I hadn't have tried the beta, I don't think I would have realized the game was so good for quite a while. I'm pretty sure the people I work with are getting tired of hearing me talk about this game.

Your welcome. Not sure when you entered them yesterday, but the page is updated now with enough codes to have the 120/120 so you have everything unlocked.

Ok, after sinking way too many hours into the beta and doing research, I have come back to XBA at the request of Snapple Cap, Reverend Meta, and HeathKilljoy in order to talk all things defiance! You guys better ask me a ton of questions so I don't go into withdrawal for the next week!

According to Raptr, I played 41 hours... only 9 hours shy of playing the most of their tracked gamers! The tutorial is not long, basically just gear up, use all ego powers, and complete a mission with Cass. The world seems to be quite large as the beta allowed access the 2 smallest areas of 5, and that's just season 1! The story is hard to quantify without access to the full game. Achievements seem easy but time consuming, I unlocked approximately 20 during the course of the beta!

What do you want to know? I can start rambling, but I don't think that would be very constructive...

how difficult/time wise does the 1000 look? are there classes, do the races have any bonuses besides aesthetics?
Re: Defiance

Races are aesthetic only, there are no classes. You select an origin at character creation that determines your starting costume and weapon. Besides the achievement for getting all other achievements, the most time consuming will be getting to level 2500, half of the max in season 1. Levels are gained by completing pursuits that generally give 5 levels each until you complete the series, which gives 15, and leveling weapon skills by using that type but each individual weapon has an XP cap of about 750k... Each weapon level gives you 4 ego levels. It is likely that you would attain level 250 bythe end of the beta content consisting of the first 2 areas. After attaining level 250, faction contracts are available, increasing the chance to level up.

How about this: what has been your favourite aspect of the game so far?
What is something you hate/wish they would change?
Tell us about an interesting time you had grouping up with someone you didn't know to complete something.
And lastly, for bonus points, do they have mega-sweet caps/cloaks/hoods that are equippable and if so can I get one and have it dyed black :3

I don't know what my favorite aspect is, I have that question come up a lot, but I never have a good answer! I think I mainly just like the fact that there is ALWAYS something to do, whether its doing missions by myself or helping friends, randomly coming across characters in need (PCs and NPCs), racing across the map to an Arkfall, or just completing contracts and pursuits!
I think the grouping system could use some work, its difficult to get friends together in the game...
There are too many stories of completing quests with random players! I remember one mission that involved reviving a few farmers and defending the farm from raiders that I was farming for specific enemy kills to complete a contract. I was in the hay loft of the barn sniping enemies as they approached the downed farmers I didn't revive when another player shows up and starts reviving them. He didn't realize where I was sniping from until he revived them all and I came down for ammo before the waves of raiders showed up!
There were a few headgear for sale at the first vendor, but you couldn't preview the items before purchase. There are videos around that show the premium items for sale, aka cost real money, and I believe there were black hoods...
