Wow guys, this update is really, really good.

Im seriously amazed, new skills, new features to the game, better graphics.

A new race, European race, wich is totally team based, grinding if you have a char from that race is really fun, really really fun. And the quests...omg have you guys checked the quests???
You can quest the WHOLE game now, quests that arent only, go kill these, go kill that, go get this from this mob or from that... Quests are more interesting now....

I think i what i can think of after seeing how good this update is is say Holy shit all the time now lol
Great work JM!!!

Imagine if they start banning a shitload bots like they did the last months from now on, every week..
Omg!!!
This is so awsome!! <3

Yup :) Great work from jm on this one. I think nobody expected this.

However, its still money > botfree game cause they would have banned the bots first...

I will make a return if all the bots are taken care of, that's for sure.

Agreed, hun.

They're finally starting to take better care of their game and i'm liking the improvements. Granted, there's a lot that needs to be worked on but I think at some point it will be taken care of.

We get to enjoy Euro soon, we have a much more appealing website to look at, and i'm looking forward to whatever nifty little updates may come. =]

I can't wait to play Euro with you!

one thing i noticed bout some of the quests was that ALOT were linked and, some of them are 'capture quests". i can only guess u somehow capture a certian mob with a certian item... can anybody clarify

ps. really like the way jm has been running things recently :D

Edit: noticed there isa kerby quest with LOTS of restricitons...that should be fun :)

JM hasn't improved, they are only transfering to us what other versions have...

And as much as Ive been waiting for these updates to arrive, JM hasn't changed nor improved...

Wait and you'll see...

I kinda consider other versions as beta-testers for certain updates... they didn't get all those stuff at once like we will...

Silkroad is a free game. It's got it's ups, it's downs, and it's got it's in-betweens. There are cheats, there are hackers, and there are 'legit' players.

Every company has it's flaws, and there is only so much they can do with an understaffed US office, and with several other versions of the game running, we do get neglected a lot. At least they're doing sometihing, even if it's taking forever for everything to get back to us. I'd rather them take their time doing it that completely shut down the game or just never update.

It's gonna keep having it's ups and downs, but either way, you play despite your complaints to you not? There's something that keeps you playing so try to look at the bright side of things. Something is being done, and it took them a long time to do it, but at least there's a little progress being made.

Thick skin and knowing when to say "F*ck it!!!" and just try and enjoy what I can...fact is iSRO is a good game but JM poorly manages it...And often enough it makes you feel like the poor managing style is actually genius managing style sometimes...most recent example being the PT (Which I do think is a good idea in itself) but being very lax in eliminating bots at the same time (which makes the PT seem more like JM taking advantage of a bad situation to turn a buck)...

I hope not, but it could be just a "pretty face, rotten inside" syndrome thats goin on now. But really you have to admit, the site looks awwwwwsome.

All that needs to be done is bot bans weekly. I have noticed there is no mention about "the war on bots" anywhere on the new site. But we will see.
