Just wondered if any EA Access participants have successfully tried DAMP?

 

I got in but match-making didn't find anyone, and the starter free loot chest in the store would not be supplied

(it stuck on 'Downloading Data. Please Wait...)

 

Not sure if it was just me, or whether there is a trial restriction.

 

I did play a couple of DAMP missions.

 

By 'missions' I mean I solo'd as a level 1 character and was immediately slaughtered in the first room  :D

On my second mission I cleared the first spawn and snagged a loot chest before being slaughtered.

Its working in the trial, its just not many people are playing.  I find starting a public game by myself, I'll die alone the first game, I'll get a 2nd person the next game and the 3rd game I'll have a full group and make it much further.

I tried a few times and the quick match was very spotty. Finally did end up in a round with three others though it started with me in a completely different part of the map. We were all level 1 or 2 and managed to make it to the 4th wave against the red templars  before wiping so I actually got to buy a few chests...

Good job. What was the characters? Did anyone get to unlock a character?

Can anyone give their impressions of the 3 starting characters?

 

 

In watching the twitch streams I find myself really looking forward to the Keeper and Legionnaire, but the Archer looks to be the most …. boring. Don't get me wrong, I can see the value of his high burst potential, but mechanically, the Archer seems to have the most 'mundane' skills.  The Keeper is a mage, and being able to cast spells like barrier and fade step make her very engaging, likewise the Legionnaire's shield wall mechanic meshes perfectly with the role of being a tank and taking hits for your team. The Archer though, all he seemed to do was throw down caltrops and stand in the back.

 

 

I guess it's because all the footage I have seen of the Archer has been of him at a low level, but he just seems to have the least amount of versatility among the starting characters. The Keeper and Legionnaire can both spec themselves in various ways; such as the Keeper being able to become a pure support mage, a DPS glass cannon, or a hybrid of the two; but the Archer just seems to be regulated to "stand here and hold down the basic attack button, until your cool downs reset".

 

 

Its an oversimplification, granted, and I can very well be totally wrong here (I hope I am), but the Archer just seems to be overshadowed by the sheer (potential) versatility of the other two characters.

Archer gains an evade, with an upgrade that does damage to opponents as they attack. He alo has a leaping evade that damages opponents as well. Has some good upgrades as it goes along

Does his skill trees allow for diverse builds, or is he only get slight variations of burst DPS?

I was getting the impression that Archer can lay down traps that slow down and cluster the enemies. But I agree that he seems quite dull at a first glance.

 

I just wish to unlock the Alchemist. I can already see myself throwing bombs left and right for some heavy AoE nuking. Some kind of CC bomb would also be nice, like a stun grenade or sth.

A friend and I didn't want to start the SP part of the game, until we could actually play it for about 24 hours straight, so we've been playing MP and I've run into the same problem with the store that you're having.  It's stuck on "Downloading data, please wait..." and I have to forcibly break back to the home screen, because it won't respond to any of my commands, and then I have to restart the game.  

 

In other words, I'm running MP without access to any healing potions whatsoever. Needless to say, it's a bit of a challenge. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem, and if you've found a fix for it?

No potions is upping the difficulty !!

 

I didn't find a fix for it before the time ran out.

Are other folk finding that the store works? (and that you got your first free pack?)

I have only been able towatch the various MP Twitch streams that have been out there for viewing. Of all the characters, the Keeper looks like the most fun. That being said I am pretty sure I will go with the Legionare, mainly as I REALLY REALLY want to play Reaver and Templar, so getting good at warrior tanking in Damp is something I need to get good at.

That was me. Got him out of my 3rd 1200 gold chest. Only character I unlocked, but I also got another armor for legionnaire.

 

Pretty much stuck to Keeper and Archer because of the 6 hour limit. Elementalist doesn't unlock barrier until far down one of his trees. I think a tank and someone with spirit barrier is pretty vital to the group, but I'll give him another shot when I'm not pressured by a time limit. 

 

My only gripe at the moment with the mp so far was the character banter. I found it pretty dull and I got annoyed with it fairly quick cause they repeated the same few lines often (couple times they repeated lines on the same run). Thought Mass Effect's character's enemy shout outs, grunting, etc... felt more natural and never got annoyed with them even with the hundreds of hours I spent with that game's mp. Also wish there was a little better map variety, like a cave or outdoor only map, but that can be fixed with the dlc.

 

Overall, I really enjoyed the mp. Spent my entire 6 hour trial with it all the way up until my time expired right out after our group took down the zone 5 commander. I look forward to jumping back in a few days.

Unfortunately I forgot most of them since I skimmed through it pretty quick once. I do know he starts with AoE fire spell (want to say immolate) and the single target frost spell. The only other spells in his trees I can recall were barrier and fire mine. Can't remember any passives. I'll check on Tuesday, unless someone else posts it.
