Has anyone tried the demo yet? I downloaded it but haven't had a chance to unpack so far.

I'm playing around with a post-gold beta patch at the moment.

It's good, not great.

His site right now is so much better than it was before.

I've played it for about 5 minutes. I'm not a big fan of the control scheme, though.
Is there anyway to select a target from any sort of map or set waypoints? Because otherwise I'm stuck just pointing myself in somewhat the right direction and waiting til i get into visual range.

I noticed that too. Really makes navigating quite annoying.

{Combat reminds of a more simplistic SFC.}
