[Fauntleroy]

[pipigrande]

Thanks!

[BuDo]

Just finished playing the 3rd Beta event yesterday...I must say I am totally hooked...

I had a farm going... grew lots of veggies and raised chickens and geese...I process/crafted my crop yields into all sorts of goods and did a few trade runs...it was quite fun and profitable...I love the public transport (carriage) system in game that you literately use like a bus to get you from place to place...It helps out a lot on those long trade runs....Plus I have a trade donkey that really helps in finalizing the journey....

I was trying to get my first ship built (The harpoon clipper)and I was 1 freaking guilda star short I had 100 lumber, 100 iron ingot and 100 fabric all lined up and waiting but didn't get the 50 guilda stars I need to build the ship...I had 49 guilda stars.. I desperately wanted to use a ship for intercontinental trading because using my little rowboat was time consuming and dangerous (tried twice and got killed and lost my trade pack)... The content in this game is really immersive...It's quite fun ..... some screenies below:

Where do you farm all the wood ? just in your own little farm ? and next CBT 22th

[AnemuS]

Trees are spread all around, I've actually tried playing the game again with a good ping and so far so good, we are a family of 3, and managed to get 1 finished farmhouse, 3 scarecrow farms(the big ones) and Harpoon Clipper.

If the rumors are right, the game releases at 12-16 September with a headstart followed by launch.
Open beta should kick in a week after the CBT is over.

Wow you guys don't waste anytime...a farmhouse requires lots of resources...

Yeah it takes some labor potions to do that in that short time sadly, and good for us we had cash shop money from the packs purchased - going 1 building by 1 is pretty easy though if everyone just dumps his labor points towards one project instead of all going by their own.

True...I gotta find myself a family when I'm ready to build a farmhouse or better yet a Galleon...

Getting new laptop next week! It should run this without problems.

Getting new laptop next week! It should run this without problems.

I hope you mean low settings, game is fairly poorly coded. My machine has a hard time doing 40 ish frames and I run max everything without much trouble.

[AnemuS]

750gt m runs the game on med/low settings with about 30-40 fps.
660ti gtx does ultra settings with about 50-60 fps, SSD disc, 12gb ram, and 3770k intel involved.

I played sro with lowest settings, only backround sight (or whatever) maxed. So I don't care.

Ty for info. My laptop has 840gt m, (8gb ram, i5 4210u intel) and I think it's (probably) enough for me.
Edit. Soon I can play cbt 4, still downloading.

The most amazing part in the game graphics is the water and it looks so dead on your rig...

Anyways today/tomorrow depends on where you are we >should< get info on the release date, or anything else they might consider "A very special announcement" at PAX party.
So stay tuned

[BuDo]

The graphics is on the lowest setting....But my game play is very smooth...I'll be cranking it up once I get a better gaming machine...

Who's going to be playing on NA server on release day? we should form a guild/family...

North American Servers during Beta:
• Aranzeb
• Naima
• Kyrios
• Ollo
• Tahyang
• Salphira

Not sure if the server names will remain the same and/or if more servers will be added at release date. If all stays the same I'll be on Kyrios.

[_Dutchy_]

[AnemuS]

Server names stay the same, possibly new ones will be added during the launch and OBT as more people will be able to join.

I myself am playing on Europe probably Kyprosa unless it is gonna be one of the servers certain language that is not English will be used too much in faction chat

[BuDo]

^
lol

[_Dutchy_]

Well looks like we will be playing Nuia faction. Not sure wich server yet thoug

[BuDo]

I'm rolling Haranya faction...So if we're on the same server we might run into each other weapons drawn...

[_Dutchy_]

Oke me and my guild will be playing on the NA server Naima faction Nuia

[BuDo]

The server I had in mind was Kyrios...but that's not set in stone or anything...but the faction I want to be in is...Open Beta starts tomorrow I believe... A chance for everyone to play for 5 days...A chance to probably test out a strategy on how to get prime location for farm land and housing....Should be a crazy mad rush on all servers...
