Word, 110 cap ruined this game completely. 100 cap was alright, 90 was pretty sweet, but now it's kinda ruined. Though I still play ^^

The game is now 1000x better than before, we got a better alchemy system, more parties going on, and the job system got a big improvement, it's now the best way to gain money, and the best of all, no more botting, Joymax blocked all bot programs, all loaders N shit, 120 cap is coming, we got like 3 events all at once, it's the best time to come back, silkroad's golden era *wink*.

Same as before bud. Just escalated more and more and more. Promises and little action. Nothing more to say really, game had potential and it was destroyed a long time ago.
Also I love your Avatar.

¤- There are some bot infested areas .

he meant hotan fort.
OR Did I ?
No i didn't mean the fort , i meant the city .
I know that Hotan has been here for years but i don't know exactly when , since 5 years is 2006 and it was at the very start of the game , i supposed it wasn't made yet .
Btw When was it added to Isro as i didn't find that on google .

I played SRO for the first time back in june-august of 2006 and iirc Hotan was there back in then. Maybe it was added rather quickly after the game was made? After all it doesn't take so long time to reach 40+ so a map for 40+'s maybe was needed quickly.

Game is awesome except for the lack of community, insane sp farming requirements, and imbalanced leveling speed for euros compared to chinese.
Lets make this a sro Q.Q thread! haven't seen one of those for a while now

A lot has been added, and --- gosh I wish they would not update 12d so soon, I have not even finished 11d goals yet --- getting Count (Baron was hard enough), Gathering silver coins, Doing FGW, finishing Quests (some are downright hard to finish), Trying on a new skill set, Getting a better Job suit, Getting a higher Job Rank, --- lol they are rushing the game too much. SLOW DOWN JOYMAX! I wish they read this forum too...
imbalanced leveling speed? the first 110s in my guilds were Chin...

¤Hotan was always there since in the close beta. Game started in Lv60cap and Hotan was there already.
@ElfeR The game is at its worst now. The triangular conflict is now gone. Only hardcore addicts are not left playing with their bot parties.

It was only a few weeks between the release of the two servers , doesn't really matter , Azteca is more active anyway .¤Seriously? How could talking to someone mes you level-up faster?
I mean the time can pass faster , not that you level faster .¤Some? Afaik all bots have bypassed it already
Not all , maybe most , at least it was a good month without many goldbots .¤Hotan was always there since in the close beta. Game started in Lv60cap and Hotan was there already.
I didn't find the release date anywhere , so i just added it and i remember reading an update called Hotan (VI plus update or whatever) .@ElfeR The game is at its worst now. The triangular conflict is now gone. Only hardcore addicts are not left playing with their bot parties.
