Beta sign up has begun. Looks pretty nice from what I have seen so far, and I will probably try it out when I get bored of LoL :)

YAY another blody generic MMO with absolutely no innovation and the same gameplay as all other 40 billion korean MMOs.
And again with female armor which absolutely wouldn't help in a fight. Which female fighter would chose a bra+ panties and piece of rectangular cloth to put over their panties as a fighting armor ?

Every now and then, a game pops up that is worth trying.
If people like me wouldn't keep trying these games, people like you wouldnt hear which ones are good lol.. I have been playing a large variety of mmo's since Ultima Online, and in total I found about 5 that were worth playing. But I never judge a game before having tried it myself. And I especially don't judge a game before it's even been in beta testing lol.

Now a days you can get a small glimpse of how the game will turn out.

Also "Fantastic Pets and mighty mounts", is it all that they offer? lol

I'm playing around with this. If you signed up for closed beta you got plenty of gold coins to use in item mall, you can buy mounts, upgrade stuff with 100% chance of success, etc.

The combat is meh. I play a warrior with dual swords and while I kill things it takes quite some time, like 8 skills to kill something 3 levels below me. I'm not sure if a hunter or mage would be faster, but I've only been playing it for a day or two.

I'm probably shooting for a Champion class then maybe I'll try a Hunter since I like archers.

Just curious if anyone else signed up for open beta, it's open as of today. I was talking to someone else in Kingdom chat - I think it's like global on that server - and he said there were only like 50-60 people on the server I chose, and maybe 20 servers total.

Crafting and updating your gear is cool, instances are available and the graphics are ok. I'm not sure if they're going to keep all the "gifts" as you level - you automatically get pieces of gear that you can use. It's not fantastic gear though you can upgrade it with dragonsoul gems. I've gotten 45 just from grinding so it's not bad.

There is an in-game bot, however. I'm not sure I like that function much. There is also a "scape" that you configure to give you additional XP while you're online and grinding. Pets are cool, many different attack moves and types. There's also a way to gain XP while offline, but I think it's item mall only.

The level cap is 100 and since closed beta there are people level 70+. I'm level 35 and played for maybe 3 hours.

The huge downside is the client is unstable as ****. Update your weapons = crash. Upgrade your mount = crash. Do something unusual in game like hitting V while attacking = crash.

It's ok, but frankly I don't know if people will stick around. putting up with stability issues and weird Chinese characters may not be worth it. I heard Jade Dynasty is better.

Hey, thanks for reminding me. I have been busy playing other games and completely forgot about this one I posted :P

Anyway, I'll probably download and try it this weekend and see how I like it. I've played with ingame bots before, like in Granado Espada and Jade Dynasty. Jade Dynasty was nice btw but almost everyone I know quit that game. I quit after about 1.5 years and 8 lvl away from 2nd cap (150-142). The only srfer still playing JD I think is Zehro (I think that's Roguekiller here?)

Wow, bummer to hear about Jade Dynasty. never tried it, only heard about it thru a friend.

The bot in this game isn't that great. To me it looks like it's more designed for you to level while you step away for an hour or something.

Plus all the potions have a 15 second cooldown like Euro's in SRO. But tbh, I rarely take that much damage anyway so it doesn't really bug me.

Like every MMORPG game ever, I started with "ooo scantily clad women - I'll give it a try" (actually one of the reasons I downloaded allods online, modestly dressed woman) into "I wonder how the PvP and end-game content is" to discovering this:
http://www.dragonsoulonline.com/en/vide ... ame-scene/

and having 0 interest what-so-ever. People need to be more like guild wars, stop copying the WOW HUD, it's fugly as shit, there's a reason there's a million and one mods that gets rid of it.

Never played WoW so doesn't matter to me, but that PvP was, er, boring?

Warrior looks like, trying to kill a hunter, and she just stands there for most of it. Unless they are different levels.
