hmmm... its pretty good. first thoughts.

POSITIVE
+Small file size
+graphics are excessive, but still look good
+reasonably easy to get into
+interface is nice

NEGATIVE (note: could be because its a beta)
-laggy (may just be my computer)
-skills dont always seem to work
-bugged maps, cant go everywhere
-initially hard to work out WTF each npc does
-not a very good choice between classes(professions) basically your choices are sword, two swords, spear, fists. thats it. cmon people, wheres the archer? more importantly... wheres the MAGE!!?!!?
-oh! the annoying menu that pops up everytime you gain a level till like 8 or something with 'gameplay tips' ...sure thats ok, but put a button to close that menu? or you lose like half of your screen lol

-oh and a weird bug where once i made a second character, that one could not gain experience points. however i think it was a server bug, as no-one else was getting exp either.

all in all, im willing to give it more of a go when i get time.

anyone else played it at all?

Coming from GW being my first MMO and RPG, I feel more at home with the GW gameplay. However I think this might be more WoW styled gameplay. I really shouldn't compare the game to GW though.

Graphics are actually pretty nice once you max everything out. I couldn't find a resolution option? The game looks just a tad distorted on my wide screen lol.

All-in-all I really don't know what I'm doing? I'm assuming there's no storyline to go with this which automatically made it not fun for me lol. It is fun killing all the enemies that are around though lol

Rambling...blahblahblah.

I think I'd play the game a few times a month, but it hasn't exactly drawn me in completely. I think many areas could be improved (hence beta lol) and it's really hard to read anything when it's stretched horizontally..so... They really need a screen resolution option <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> Support the Widescreen people!

I'm not really sure what to think of the game...yet.

*feels like he's rambling*

yeah i noticed that too dren, no resolution option. uh lets see, yeah the graphics are nice, but i was getting a bit of (graphical) lag while playing so i thought id turn down the options a bit. still looks good.

as fair as i know i havent discovered a story yet. its not based around quests as the first quest isnt offered till youre about level 14 or 15, then you have to go right out of your way to get the quest, and killing the baddie from said quest takes a group of 4 lvl 16's about 5 minutes... so yeah, definitely not quest orientated.

youre right, its not like GW... but i wouldnt really say its "like" WoW either.

oh... another minus... "click to move" GAH! i hate doing that. let me use WASD controls please?

Josh · Post by **Josh** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 1:35 am

omigosh how did I miss that? WASD controls move the camera! <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... #>/cry.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':(\' /> GAH! I really hate click movement... *sigh*

hmmm ok so ive played more still and "apparently" the game really shines when you get to level 30, then its like an all out war against the other 2 clans...

problems i see with that? well im nowhere near level 30. lol. the level curve is really good around 1-10, then gets higher, and higher! really quickly. this game gives experience points per hit you make on an opponent. on my lvl 13 chars i get about .1 to .2% per hit. on my lvl 19 its more along the lines of .05 to .07 per hit. REEEEALLY sucks trying to level like that. apparently you can level up to 112 or something. whats that going to be, 0.0000001% per hit? ouch.

apart from that its quite fun, and i could see myself easily wasting plenty of hours playing it. i like the oriental theme <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Characters:
Account 1 - Jinong Faction
verhan - lvl 19 sword
ver* - lvl 13 scepter
ver* - lvl 13 pole

Account 2 - Fujin
versai - lvl 13 dual blade

here are some photos from today of versai.

What's the table down in the lower right for? The environment art doesn't look too shabby.

Vercz · Post by **Vercz** » Tue Nov 20, 2007 7:03 am

lower right? with the "1 2 3 4" boxes? you can drag items like healing pills and/or mana pills into them. they correspond with number 1-4. oh. and to use a skill (center bottom) you have to use F1-F8 <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
