Gamespot has a review of Anarchy Online: The Notum Wars. With a rating of 6.6/10, they do not seem to be too convinced with what they saw. Here's their conclusion:
Should you pick up Notum Wars? If you're an Anarchy Online veteran, then yes--the game's complex land control battles will offer you a considerable, though somewhat flawed, challenge. If you're a player who quit because of the game's technical problems at launch last year, but you still find the game's sci-fi setting and unique sense of style and humor interesting, then yes--Anarchy Online isn't perfect yet, but it's been improved greatly, especially in terms of stability. If you're a beginner who finds Anarchy Online's setting, character classes, and futuristic armor and weaponry intriguing, you'd best be prepared to ask a lot of questions, since Anarchy Online can be an enjoyable, convenient game, but it's surprisingly complicated. If you're looking for a simpler game that's easier to pick up, you'd do well to consider some of the games that have been released this year instead. |
