That isn't necessary, the game is going to be free-to-play, the 'packs' are only bonuses for pre-ordering which give you guaranteed access. Now that the closed betas are running, you can pick up keys commonly from giveaways. In fact, if you guys had made this thread a week ago I could have given you all keys to play CBT2.

I just woke up so I'm still too tired to go in depth on the game's features which takes forever, but here's a quick overview

PvP oriented game, its entire focus is world PvP

MMO of course, free-to-play

2 factions, but you can become a criminal temporarily to kill your own faction if you want in certain zones. You can also become a pirate which is a 3rd faction and you become a permanent criminal against both normal factions.

Furthermore, guilds can become their own faction if they choose to do so, but it is very expensive and will not be common.

Most gear is tradeable

Extremely expansive professions.

You can have farms with crops, or farms with animals, or farms with bees to make honey

You can have houses

You can have houses with farms

You can have aquafarms and grow clams for pearls or whatever

You can be a hardy lumberjack with a beard cutting down trees all day

You level from all the effort put into your crafting so if you don't like questing you can go from about level 10-50 just by crafting/gathering/farming.

You can buy a boat

A rowboat, a sailboat, or an omfg that guy is the king of the ocean boat.

You can buy a submarine too!

You can go treasure-hunting by using items to increase your swim speed and water breathing timer so you can explore the depths of the ocean for chests of booty

There is gliding, except it uses super cool gliders instead of wings which wouldn't actually properly carry your weight, fatass

Tons of world bosses, and you can capture them and make them your slaves. Err I mean pets. Yes, that does mean you can have a terracotta sumo-samurai warrior ninja pet.

You can go out and glide onto other people's ships

You can take their ship away once their dead and take it for a joyride (they still keep the ship, but you make it a pain in the ass for them to be able to summon it again)

and so on..

I think Archeage will take over as my primary MMO once it's live, I've been playing each beta since it started and so far I'm pretty impressed.

I'm not sure why you would want zerg PvP but once I'm home I can post some screenshots for you to see how bad certain areas can get.

Most of the PvP is small group world PvP, or in the case of sea pvp/pirating it can be large groups on battleships, but not zergs.

One zone in particular though goes to war every 3 hours for 1 hour in which both factions fight to capture the other factions treasure, and I've seen it get up to like 200-500 players on the dominant faction side

Incoming screenshot bomb

Also as an added bonus here's some screenshots of a world boss fight I found
(he's one of the easier ones, a few have taken 80-man raids to kill)
