Way to break your NDA agreement... Have you ever played World War II online - I'd be interested to know what you think of that game as well, as my intial thoughts after seeing the screenshots of Roma Victor were that the graphics are similar to that of WWII online, and the gameplay there definitely makes up for the lack of graphical splendour. ww2ol is actually a good mark... since roma victor is going for realism... your not gonna have bf2/cs/quake jumping and running around at 10x human speed kind of combat. its the most realistic combat i've ever see, on par with mount and blade but not the exact same system. and realistic means realistic, not that you can move like an elf or wolfman but you can click buttons to slash and to block. |

third person view is simply for looking at your character, you cannot fight or do anything else while in tpv.

oh oh ! kannoth let my men crucify him, we are getting rusty hehe.
all the idiots in the past who have came on here blabbing about how theres nothing in the game.. have obviously never played anything except two weeks before wow was released... ANYONE who has done a resonable amount of beta testing knows how its done. I wont say anything more since the blabbermouth who started this thread decided to blab hehe. |

Ya know, Roma Victor could be the MMO markets savior...

never happened.
I said it before and I will always say it.. rv is not for 90% of mmorpg players. I hope it grows slowly and does well, but it will never be an uber blockbuster like wow or swg , however like both of those games, maybe roma victor will bring in NEW people to the mmorpg community that never played them before. And no doubt if RV does well we will see more of its type. |

RV has proven to me that a system like verm can work. I chose verm. In this game no matter how you made it rich, your going to have advantages. And unless we have some bill gates running around no one is gonna become instantly super rich ingame, not only from just the sheer amount of real life money you'd have to spend, but also from the fact that there will most likely be limits to how much you can buy, since everything is connected and controlled like a real economy.

It's nice to see my arch enemy on the cross :) |

while I have always been in a guild of some sort except for some times in UO, I am also totally against "guild only" features.

I dont believe its a bad thing that this game is not for everyone. That is something i have been saying on these forums, and even said in my player preview of RV on this webiste.
In 30+ beta tests, and all the games ive followed.. these devs are the best. I've followed Darkfall since day one and they treat their fans like we dont exist. I fully support RB and their game. |

As I said in my preview for RV on this website, These are the best devs I've ever had the pleasure of working with. They have nothing to hide and are always honest with the testers. I know it sounds annoyingly fanboish, however It comes from the experience of 30 beta tests over the past 10 years. The main game I have always followed, was Darkfall... and they treat the community like we dont exist, compared to that the RV devs are on the opposite side of the scale.

I actually agree with that really... ive never pre ordered a mmorpg, and it would have to be something ive waited for for years and wanted badly to do so hehe. it is the common thing these days in the mmo industry though. |

nobody, not even the devs, can truely predict when a game will come out.

you paid to pre order the game, and were offered a spot in the test. If you pre ordered JUST to test, well thats your problem. |

ok students settle down... today we will learn the basics of the latin numeral system.
so... logically, if she weighs the same as a duck....

it helps to remember that you are TESTING a game that is still many months away from release, so dont expect much.

the 13th legion is not available in the game.. considering it is an npc legion controlled by the emperor....

this is what I have been trying to say since i joined these forums. ROMA VICTOR IS A REALISTIC HISTORICAL RECREATION OF LIFE IN 180AD ROMAN EMPIRE. IT IS NOT EQ NOR IS IT FOR THE MAJORITY OF MMORPG PLAYERS. IF YOU LIKE EQ YOU WILL NOT LIKE THIS GAME. there, that was only time 287573 |

The only exception to that may be if your a roman general like myself and you have all sorts of decked out armor on, but it would have to be a pretty bad rout of my troops for me to die and get fully looted in battle. But remember EVERYTHING can be made by the players, so whatever you lose you can make youself or know a friend you can buy it from very cheeply. This is where it comes in what you said about playing something different, and smart. The fact that it IS dangerous to travel and you COULD lose your stuff will mean there will be more jobs available for the player. Merchants will need guards, and bandit players will try to take the stuff from them!
The 24th will be patroling the roads and fighting those who wish to cause trouble for the empire. Now think about it, wtf would my legon be doing when there arent any wars if there was NO free pvp and full loot? It adds depth to the game and gives people more to do !. The PLAYERS rule themselves, defend themselves, THAT is the way of freedom, the way things SHOULD be. Infact I personally extend and invitation to hang with me when you first get the game, until you get your berings straight and learn, because it WILL be a very different experience for you, and I would not want to lose a possible convert to the dark side(those dark carebears!) |

did someone kill you and you cried and ran to momma? If you want to get tough join a legion and kick some arse. |
