As a hardcore RPG fan who's put about close to 50 hours into the game already (few points from lvl26), I gotta admit it has some flaws. Like how loot needs to be handled better. Some farming exploits here and there and the PVP skill curve being tough for beginner FPSers (not me, my friends which hate the PVP part so I can't convince em to go with me, and I hate PVP pugging), especially vs hardened the CoD/BF crowd. Strikes DO get repetitive but it's like ppl don't know this is an MMO. The grind for gear IS part of the fun.
Gear needs to be given more "personality" other than the exotics. Maybe add in a space combat segment or at least abilities like orbital bombardment or supply drop that you can get by modding your ships (let us customize our ships dammit!) so that ships are a bit more than just aesthetics. And so much other stuff I can think of to improve the MMORPGish aspect of the gameplay.
I feel like the game had whole features cut out for future DLC and that the publisher only allowed them to release a bare-bones version of it.
Saying that, I feel that the game has ENORMOUS potential. And that the gameplay is both fun and smooth. I'm overseas running a 3mbps connection that lags when I refresh facebook but I get almost zero lag in the game. The gunplay feels intuitive. The abilities are subtle but actually make you rethink your gameplay style rather than just "add X damage) and so quite fun to tweak and experiment with. Overall, the game is flawed but fun. The sad thing is that due to the hype, too many people are hard at work just looking for the flaws.
