So after the new update..

Post by rumpleKillskin »

So after this new update is it worth coming back to the game? What have they added other than a new lvl cap?

I left the game when I was lvl 73 with a rogue. It barley has any sp left, and no excellent gear. I just want a fun game that I can progress in with free time to spare. I probably really wouldn't play until summer time, but might as well find out now. I just remember that the game is money hungry for EVERYTHING. I rather spend that on stuff I do for fun that is productive.
Tell me what is soo good about this update that could make someone come back to the game.

Not really worth coming back. The biggest update is the cave, which is primarily for levels 80+.

The new cave is well.. nice, but it would've been nice to just go in and teleport to whichever floor you want... takes me like 30 minutes to get to my grinding spot at 140% speed. and no I won't buy reverse return scrolls.
Someone make me an Aion-related sig and I will give you 5 dollhairs.

Go to the silkroad website and you can see on the update page what they added.
If you quit the game when it was easier chances are your not going to be able to handle it now. You need more sp, You need more exp, You need more time, You need more patience. You're saying things like "Game is money hungry for everything", "I rather spend that on stuff i do for fun that is productive" Why even bother when your thoughts are negative like that? That is just going to make you quit again and you're going to end up wasting your time again. I think its stupid to come back to a game when the reasons that you quit in the first place are still there and some more extreme.

Its obvious that you haven't resolved within yourself the decision to quit or else you wouldn't be curious about whats happening after the update...Whatever caused you to leave the first time wasn't conclusive. I say feed your curiosity by coming back to see for yourself what the game is like with this new cap...then try to make a definitive decision based on what you experience now and what you experienced before this new cap came out.

Thing is keep going on like before.
i predict this going to happen:

Element Wind 5, Water 7, Earth 7, Fire 3 and some D10 Elements will going to be high price. Weapon elixir, Protector elixir too.

Reverse return scroll[Blue return scroll] is a MUST for high level player. SRO is a Free to play game for level 1-80. 80+ u must pay...

If you dont pay:
-cannot login
-cannot level up
-no SP
-run like mad dog to killing spot.

If you pay:
-out of control for game play expenses
-every day forced to play 3 hr +
-Lag and hacker still cannot be prevented.
-Customer service Joymax is still not improving.

That's why, players all keep going to other version.
TSRO (taiwan)
-u can use media.pk2 to change Chinese to English.
-u can buy silks item by store.
-u can do 5 stars trading by invisible character (wizard/rogue) and no body going to rob u.
-u can kil unique even 10 minute it appear, because they are not going to kill Tiger girl if they are so high level. (iSRO, especially Turks, they do much rapid kill on unique..they stand there to wait for them to appear.)
-u will have daily inspection.
-bot will be punish after giving 3 time notice. if you failed to follow the game rule, penalty is given like lock your account for 1 month, 3 months, or 1 year. (SRO? lock for 99 year)

Lets get rid from this game.
if you are a kid, u definately wasting ur parents money.
if you are rich, lets spend ur money wisely than this game.

All the best, farewell iSRO.
After all, i love silkroad. [color=#BF0000]but not joymax.[/color]

^Total bullshit. You can play up to level 100 without buying a single silk.

You do not need a premium to log.
You do not have to farm for certain builds or farm at ongs.
You can level up. Just grind..?

The only thing about that.. reverse returns aren't needed, but sure running to grind takes some time. Don't die and you're good for more than enough if you plan to grind. <Party grinding should just drain MP(HP Early on in the cap mainly because of gear atm)>

Spending around $20 a month on this game doesn't make you rich, but it adds up to an amount you wish you've never pumped into Silkroad. I bought like $50 on my euro and $100 on my Chinese(Used to buy random stuff lol and I had $100~$150 more bought with gold when I started playing. People were nice back then). Keep that in mind that was over the past years I've played.

Just stop buying stupid shit from the the shop and you'll do fine. Do you honestly need 5 hours of grinding? Not really unless you don't intend on grinding that yourself. Gold Ticket and a pet does fine. Once in a while left over silk yourself buy some goodies.

And at your 'pay' part.

Lulwut? Again don't need scrolls, suits, devil spirit, or w/e else.
Forced? Not really. Just press "Exit" in the Esc menu.
Lag? Shitty connection. Get a better one.
Hacker? Yeah okay.. I've had my account since early '06 and it's still there. Why? I don't give out my username, password, or anything relating to the account.
Customer service.. I can't argue against that, but they are improving with the email service thing. They actually reply unlike most sites where it's mainly copy and paste.

Don't need to play a game where not many people speak the language I'd prefer.. English.

If you not care to pay...
go ahead.

But once u pay, every month it need u to pay.

This is a world wide game. Some country is having a low currency and their silks purchase is not cheap at all.

This i not need to explain on here, which i think age 5-18 play this game the most. And i knowsome friends age 55-70 still playing Silkroad.

Always, wish gold bot can be stop.
Always, wish Joymax will have a perfect way to stop hacker.
Why wil got hack? (when i m level 1-80 i am rich as well in term of game gold, why no body hack me; When i m 89 level and i got hack. A full farm Wizard soon to have level 90 Cap)

i have no objection to players who like to spen money. At least, improve this game, we love this game a lot.

Testosteron loader is good to help login problem.
White Finger Loader (srobot) is good to help u level up / SP farming.

But they are illegal.

Happy enjoy silkroad.
and... after i got hack, i went thru many way to prevent hack. i got this solution: Make another account. Level 1 x 4 char, Store Gold / Nice lower levle item u have. At least, this can secure u to re-start this game if you lost ur account. ID / PW can be hack if you make a simple secret answer, hacker might be ur friend in msn/ AOL/ email friend. and do not access the email of 'verify code validation' that request you to click. It might be hacker did it to scam you.

I'm sorry, but you still can buy silk once and not buy it again. I've played silkroad the past year without silk. Up until I wanted devil spirit and I just pumped in $20. Not much for me.

International buying silk.. You know Joymax is trying other ways to sell to them and not just at a retarded price.

Gold bots can be stopped. It's just the users have the power to do that along with Joymax. Users just needs to stop buying gold. Joymax needs to come up with a better auto detector that can ban gold bots.

You got "hacked" due to your stupidity. I sorta couldn't quite understand the rest.

*I put hacked in quotations, because they do not go through the database and snatch your user and password. You leaked your information one way or another. You might have said your user name in a chat or sent it through a keylogger from a file that you downloaded.*

I just started playing again, and can say, it's worth coming back already :) Will be even better after update. Also, with all the new servers, logging in without premium is no problem (well I don't think it is)
Started playing again, on CSRO now though, not ISRO (:
