XLGames and the ArcheAge Online team has released a new trailer to tease the upcoming closed beta test 4 in Korea. The trailer features some impressive footage of two armadas of ships arriving at a mysterious island and hints at the battle to come. Check it out!

Can't wait for this game.

There sure is a lot of promise for this game. They got the concept. Let's see if they got the excecution.

Hehe, nice. Promissing, promissing ...

if we're lucky, we'll get the game in the west by 2020.

About the trailer:

The concept is simple: guild of people claims an island (the whole sword thing is claiming the place) , possibly hoping to start business and stuff (as example in CBT3 there was a case of a guild who spent entire CBT as wood-cutting company, having set up the whole place of houses, planting trees, selling wood to players, etc)

The players who are aligned into "lawless/criminal/pirate" alignment come to raid the place.

 Theoretically a piracy in the oceans is as viable way of playing as any of other infintie possibilities.

is that true? i mean it's awesome that if it happens in the game,

like there would actually be a dedicated guilds that will only do that kind of stuffs, and it's going to be so immersive

but yeah, being a pirate in this game could be something as you can just raid towns whenever you like and loot all the stuffs, haha

I see an extortion racket in the making.

WOW! 

Ugh. Why couldn't Star Wars be THIS!

Let's hope the NA publisher is worthy of this.

+1. And if we are luckier, it will actually deliver on half the promised material.

I would like to have more faith in developers and publishers these days, but east or west, they just seem to keep delivering half assed products, over and over and over again.

Game looks nice, i like some of the features, but in the end it's just meh for me. Seen one video with a class that had an over sized axe and fighting an insanely huge tree. Not a huge fan of that kinda stuff, was disappointed seeing the world bosses in swtor like that. Seen to much of that in other fantasy games to want to go down that road again, pass.

So basically eve online on land. Move along, nothinfg new and a rather limited audience. Despite Hardcore PVP'ers wowing about Eve it is still haemoraging players and in all the years its been going losing your electronic goodies to pirates stops many many people joining or staying in the game. Especially when egotistical guild/corp/alliance leaders form huge blobs to take land and stuff from other small corps and guilds same will happen here. Alliances of pirate guilds fighting each other in huge blobs.

Explain this? AA looks to be a much better mmo than TOR, has tons more features, and is wide open. TOR is limited, linear, and dumbed down. You like being limited and still pay for it?

Personaly i wish TOR was like AA, would ahve killed WOW for sure ;)

And Star Wars was like this, game called SWG ;) Same concept.

Some people prefer it when the game tells them what to do. They get confused when placed in an open world with the premise of creating their own adventure.
