Is it just me (probably) or is everyone having a really buggy time with Beta? First, the open server times are the worst part of the week for me. I can only do Thursday, Friday late and Saturday. Uggh! It's a conspiracy!
Every night when I do play the missions get a bug that doesn't allow me to finish it: Leading the Blind where the NPCs are missing. Transcendence: rubberbanding me out of the "mission" room. Reporting errors takes 15 minutes and times me out. Lag is making even walking no fun.
Has anyone had these same problems? Others in the FA are already Level 35 and up--who wants a lowly Level 6 playing on there Mission team. arrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I've tried TS, but spend most of my time doing bug reports--who wants to here a grown man cry?!?! ^#^%#$^&%$^%#^#^%%&***&^&&&*)(&*(&

You just have to be patient! I was on the first mission for 3 days straight (due to bugs) before I realized that I could get the same mission done in a differnent section of the city quite fast.
I've found that it's not really the mission that is bugged or laggy, but WHERE the mission is that determines if it's laggy or bugged or not. For instance, "The Decision" had so many bugs in Midian Park that after it crashed, I just walked away from the computer cussing.
But I sought help and random people helped me! I went to another location and started the Mission there and sure enough, it worked smooth as can be.
So my advice is: When you're a bit lagging and your missions aren't working, just run away to a different part of the city. It worked for me! :D

lol, yeah we all got these problems.
The important thing IS to report them, because they may relate to your rigs setup.
I know it takes ages, but you'll find that most of us do this as well. There have been nights where all I do is bug report, one after the other almost - I've had 4 bugs on one mission floor before (1- a NPC missing, 2- NPC doesn't follow, 3- Rubberbanding one doorway, 4- Elevator panel doesn't work!).
but thats the name of the game - bug reporting.
We've managed to get high levels by grouping, and having everyone on missions or killing for info. If you can get into the group, then get in and you will start getting to lvl 20 in no time at all! Its a must that you get on TS tho' for the mission teams.

Muchos gracias, senors. I don't feel so "alone". **sobs quietly to himself** I'll get into missions groups for sure AND try different parts of the city. Thanks. Any other helpful hints?
-
Other hints? Um... Tabor Park has good Level 10 abilities and there are two emotes that you need:

/slap

You guys are lucky, i still cant get even in :( So stop complaining!

Heh... getting past those missions are really annoying... I made it through on a stroke of luck, when the mission system worked in one building in an area just outside of Apolyon.

Firstborn: you say something about lag..When I jack into the matrix it takes like forever to even move and even more forever to get out of the "code-jack-in"-mode or whatever its called..soo laggy...do you have more lag than me?
Perhaps there is a commando I can write to check my ping..like in other games..?
-
When I first jack in and ahve this "code" I do get a little lag, but in general I can move around quite well, hyper-jump etc etc.
I have my graphics on medium I think (Radeon 900 II Pro, 2100+XP).
can't wait for my upgrade!
As for ping in general, I don't know the command (if there is one). You're in Norway, I'm in Scotland - we are quite close together, but I suspect your pipe goes down to mainland Europe and then across, so you will have a higher ping.
It sucks, yes.
