Wtf is GSRO lol?

Whaat? Looks like i won't be finishing my set any time soon. They may increase the stone drop rates, but i still gotta get the right stones. And for some reason i think that they will make 5%-35% stones drop as well. -.- Damn, i liked the complexity of this system.

I suppose euro update was in 2007, i don't remember. :D
Also, notice the massive drop in the beginning of 2006, what could have caused that?

Yeah it was the Euro update I believe. The servers kept crashing and insane lag early 2006. Insane lag I mean like 5~10 second delays nonstop.

Anyone really surprised by that graph? It's been downhill since forever. What you have mostly left are well mostly botters that don't care for the grind and just accept buying stuff every month when no one PvPs. Well I can't really comment on it now and for other servers, but that's how it was 100cap on Troy. That just causes every one else to quit. And it's not like there have been new games that came out either.

If they ban bots, muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch less of a grind, and active GM staff for Silkroad 2 then it can be a success. That is if keeping the core aspects of Silkroad.

Interesting.. play to play only server... too bad this is wayy too late. They probably only did it since the vSRO files were leaked or something. pServers popping up everywhere.

Anyway, yeah i can't think of any real benefit of joining a server of those, The lone benefit i can think of is that it won't be over-helmed by Gold bots.

Sucks this update doesn't really help...

As soon as they create an anti hack you know their taking player feedback.

If a gold bot can farm that amount of gold to pay for the cost you'd be your ass they'll be there. Don't forgot there are morons that buy gold even if the price is insane.

Nice update, private servers are killing isro haha, but
For GSRO KR, US and Europe based Servers (Xian - Argos) <-- means all servers? what is GSRO?
What that corrupted btches should do is to put an option to right clic name of spammers and block them, as majority of mmorpgs have, to have players happy
