I personally haven't played for a while, so I wouldn't be a great source, but I personally would think they wouldn't wipe it. If anything probably like once a year, since it can get really crowded. Like you've gotta walk really far if you want to expect nobody. But that's a good thing about the game, it's like huge, and it's a great environment.

If a new company takes over I guarantee you this game would sky rocket. More updates would come in for sure. If updates come into the game like more things to do, somewhat better graphics, and lower the price to play or even make it free that'd get a good population in.

If they increase the graphics chances are it'll help raise how good it is. Considering you'll be looking and the environment and the things you build often throughout the game. So you should at least be able to enjoy what you see and see that it's worth it. I personally think they should lower the price monthly on the game though. Pretty high.

If you did get a virus it probably was trying to download products making your computer worse. Including your antivirus software turning on and off, the virus was probably screwing with the files in order to make it so it can't get rid of the virus.

I wouldn't know if you did get a virus from this game, but I do believe if you did chances are that virus is smart enough to edit your files and download more viruses/trojans/etc.

Thanks, and mind me asking something else as well. What's the story behind Anarchy Online being free for whatever reason. I hadn't caught that. Is it that you can pay for the expansions along with the game, or play free with no expansions?

The title says most of what's needed to be said. I've never played Anarchy Online before, and I'm debating whether I should or shouldn't play. So I'd like to hear from those of you who play, played, or quit. Then hear what you like and what you don't like.

So what I'm asking is, what's great about Anarchy Online and what isn't great.

how comes game like eq2...ff11....and even eq can only get 500k max subs...

 

and over 2 million of rs players are paying subs...

A couple reasons I'm throwing out there.

- It's a browser game, so you wouldn't get a virus/etc. as easily as a downloaded game.

- It's decent

- It has an active forum

- It's mainly free. Yes, you can pay for membership, but that's for more stuff. Sort of benefits. If you don't pay you still get a lot.

- It has several things to do.

- Graphics don't suck, but they're not incredible either.

- Several other reasons as well.

Iron Will took over adding expansions, new area's, new equipment, and more.

Now there's even a free island.

Iron Will has a "Dransik" version which is a very old version of Ashen Empires. Before Ashen Empires was Ashen Empires, it was Dransik. Which used to be the very old version that they have in the launcher. But Dransik soon increased in development and hit where Ashen Empires is now. Which is in the picture. If you look in the Iron Will Launcher, you will see "Ashen Empires" and "Dransik". If you choose Dransik you're looking for a very out-dated version. If you choose Ashen-Empires, you'll get a very up to date version, like in the picture above.

So I entirely disagree with you. Because "Ashen-Empires" does look like that.

Yeah, as said, you could be cursing/swearing at a little kid. Think about it, kids probably over populate teen agers playing this. So chances are you're talking to a kid.

And whether private or personal chat, it's still cursing. The game prohibits cursing overall. So just don't curse, you're not supposed to, you're not allowed to, and now you've been warned with a 72 Hour ban. That's you're fault. Now you know to obey their rules.

Waste your time more noobs this game is for 5 year olds and still contains drinking and beer and tobbaco and violence ive played for a week then once opf a sudden the game screwed up no more weapons no more fullscreen no more ships no more leveling no more ANYTHING they want to pay to suck each others ****s

If this game is for 5 year olds, why are you playing and wasting you're time making this comment. If you don't like a game, you don't play it. And yes it is for kids. And if this game is based on "Pirates" I think there's going to be some violence and drinking. As far as tobbaco, that might be a bit far.

------------------------------------------------------------

And finally, if you've only played for a week and only experienced the free version, you shouldn't criticize it so much. And as from seeing you're post, you're pretty screwed up yourself.

If they lowered the prices it would raise the chances of people to play.

I actually thought of playing myself. I played it a while ago. Pretty fun game.

If you guys haven't realized, it's back up. I headed over to the site news, and saw that it was. If something happened and it's down again for some reason, sorry for the wrong info. But I believe it's up.

I myself played when it was free and when Ashen Empires was called Dransik instead. And when the owner was different. Once it was pay to play, I ended up stopping. But I always got the urge to play, so I ended up paying for a little. And now I'm getting the urge to again, and I just may end up paying. The only annoying part is, now there are several expansions, so now you could miss out on a bunch of junk. Problem is, if you plan to pay for a month or three. But you want to do the things with the expansion packs, unfortunately you'd pay $20 on an expansion and then in the month or so, you'd realize you wasted the expansion pretty much.

Well anyway, Ashen Empires is a good game. Good community as said. Don't find too many idiots around, well I don't anyway. Last time I checked, they had a good moderation team going around under a certain name. Good gameplay. Several monsters, several things to do, several quests, always something to do.

Ashen Empires overall is great. Coming from another person, try it out if you haven't already.

So you people know, you may see me in game as Jethro/Snakester/Snakesta. '

I've gotten a few days ago. It's a fun game I must say. But I see what you mean by communication. A lot of people really don't talk back, or they speak a different language. Also aresiusbr , I saw how you said the thing about how people don't talk when your minning or farming, as well as getting timber. Usually people start mining or getting timber, and then go away from the computer or do something else. So they can just do whatever while they get supplies. Besides that, I will say it's fun. I've definitally been having fun as well as playing it with my brother so far. I think it might end up getting boring soon or later. But right now it's alright.

Awesome. Just a question but didn't they just come out with the expansion Guild Wars factions. Well now there already making another? Also is this a expansion or a seperate part.

Guild Wars is in the lead I have to admit. Anyways whats the point of this war topic. If Guild Wars wins, whats going to happen then? If World Of Worldcraft wins. What then? Basically nothing.

Yeah I heard about that construction skill thing. My friend came over and he's a member, and he was telling me about it. It seemed pretty cool.
