Re: Ah Silkroad, how I have missed you...

I highly doubt I'll actually have time to truly play SRO, whether isro, private servers, or any other kind. I mostly wanted to see what the game looked like on a higher end laptop, or even if the game was still in existance after almost a decade. It's good to see that it is still alive and kicking a...

Ah Silkroad, how I have missed you...

It's been a long time since I've played SRO, maybe 8 years or so. I bought a new system and thought I'd finally get to see what our beloved SRO looks like in full, high detail graphics and see what's been going on in the servers lately. It took me a bit of the afternoon to even remember my login inf...

Re: Running SRO on Linux?

I haven't even touched SRO in several years. Back between 2006 and 2009 or so, I started on Windows XP, but moved to Ubuntu. SRO installed and played perfectly (for me at least) on Ubuntu with wine. After that time, I stopped playing, and tried going back once or twice between around 2010 and 2013. ...

Re: New SRO Update...Kick in the nuts for retired veterans

They can't seriously think that lvling from 101 to 120 is more fun than about 1-50? Better lower the cap instead lol. Quoted for truth! Leveling 1 - 50 gives you more immediate rewards since you level much faster. You get a wider variety of mobs to grind on, new things to explore seem to come more ...

Well that sucks I missed the deadline. I don't play anymore but it would have been good to keep the stuff just in case.
