What do you dislike most about SRO?

Post by xing_xhan »

I know I may have just started playing, only a few levels from lvl 20, (n00b), and there are few things that just burn my ass.

Take the quests for example, some items requested take much too long to obtain such as the ''black tiger talons'' I must have killed over 600 black tigers to get the 60 talons needed. And the fact that people who are over level 20 kill under-level players who CAN'T defend themselves because they AREN'T on level 20 or beyond... Give us noobs a chance to play... especially when you've never provoked the other player attacking you...

Anything that ticks you off?

People like you, who complain, instead of quiting.

Quit, there will be less server traffic for us.

i started playing when alexander opened(close to that time) and i really enjoyed me and bunch of cs friends would get on run around kill shit see how far we could get. then it got boring the one kid hit 30 and didnt do anything any pvp you would just die.. then server traffic came. now we all 4x and higher and find out the game really sucks but wanna hit 80 to kill bitch.es that killed us in pvp or jobbing. so.
I die every Monday at 7am and reborn Friday at 4pm

People like him, who are usually scammed/own3d due to their lack of intelligence, hence the stupid comments they make.

600 black tigers killed? That's nothing. Around lvl 32, you'll have a quest to kill 1,500 blood devil flowers. You can do that 3 times. There are similar quests at around lvl 64 (Edimuu and Shakram, and Power Earth Ghosts I believe). Might be some like that in between, or even higher level quests.

Yeah, quests are not very creative in this game. Kill 34234235236 monsters, or get 342352 bags by killing 13423502604326 monsters.

As for high levels killing low levels, yeah it happens, but last I checked, if you try to kill someone below lvl 20, you'll get an error message "Cannot PK at your level" or similar.

Maybe capes are different? At least you can't murder someone below lvl 20.

My advice, if you want to PVP with a few friends, don't do it right outside a city gate where there are tons of high levels.

The exp rate isn't hard and the gameplay mechanics are decent, but I dislike the community.

I dislike the fact that I get banned for accidental charge back on a lv80 account, paypal has already responded to me and my account is still banned 2 weeks after. :/

I agree with all the above: the most is "Disconnect" thats the biggest problem with this game. The servers cant handle sh_t. Lag comes second, hey at least we are still in the game. Sro = piece of sh_t game, still play it when i get in and cause its best looking free online game and I own xD GM's PAY ME!! hehe

Also actually 4m to change alias (o_0)

the fact that Nikemax runs it. If they didn't then we wouldn't have these problems, we only have them because Nikemax let them get that bad.

you both suck

Also, you can murder lvls 5-19, if they attack you first when you're in murder status ;) or if you're in murder and they splash you with the electric imbue for example, you can also kill them lol

My only disappointment is that, no european mobs beyond level 40 was added. Back in the noob days, those Pirates uses poison, those Punishers stuns, those Hun Archars knockback and those rock golems knockdown. PvE was very interesting.

But after level 40, only chinese mobs remains. And the worst that the mobs can do is freezing and Area of Effect damage. PvE became kind of repetitive.

Hope there will be high level European mobs in the future. 8)

i bet no one has said this one

your trying to pimp out your gear. youve just wasted 5 mil on trying to change phy% or whatever.... they all fail. then you have a sucess.. but wait...!!!! WOOOT the SUCCES actually made the phy which was 20% go to 0%..........................

happens all the time. therefor. even 50% of the succes' are failures!

GO FIGURE. pisses me off. it seems logical that when you succeed in the enchantment you should get a increase in % NOT decrease. that is what success means afterall. SUX ASSS HOLES
