To me they didn't do any bad the closed beta invites...come on people...CB's are there to improve the game not to try out the game, don't be so selfish. Plus if they invited thousands of players right the first day of CB it would be a chaos, they don't need to stress the server/s in the first day, they will do it when needed.

If you want to try the game instead of testing and helping to fix bugs in the game, i advice you to simply download the chinese version "Radiant Arcana" instead of posting BS complaining about CB invites, just type "ra moliyo" in google and there you have the chinese version homepage! Btw RoM is/will be different than the chinese version so don't expect it to be 100% the same game.

LOL

Give it a few weeks, it will turn out just like all the other cookie cutter f2p's that asia seems to pump out every other day.

Also i bet this game gets completely overrun by bots/gold farmers and spam, just like the rest of the group.

Does that means P2P mmo doesn't have bots/gold famers and spammers? rolf

Maybe you see less bots because they are "better made and 100% paying" while on F2P people tends to release free hacks, that doesn't mean P2P games don't have bots/hacks and such, you have to pay for them which is different ;)

As for goldfarmers/spammers....they are on every mmo doesn't matter where you go, they will be there.

Btw let's not judge before a release or before even have tried the game, F2P tends to fail in the long run, but not many P2P succeed either. Mmo are like any other kind of game, you play them until you get bored.

Anyway since it's a "WoW copy" don't expect it to fail so badly, i've tried Radiant Arcana and it's decent, plus Runes of Magic has different stuff.

I've played WoW for almost 2 years, and i have to say that this game looks very similar to WoW or looks like a copy when you see both, but Runes of Magic has so many things that WoW doesn't have, and i mean little details the game has and you only notice about them when you play the game which makes the game pretty good to be F2P.

It's for sure a must try for all the F2P mmo players, i've tried the chinese version "Radiant Arcana" (i advice you to try it out if you wanna check how the game feels like, registering is very easy) and i was "impressed" since the game feels nice, polished and worth it to try it imo. It has loads of quests, at least on the early lvls (i haven't played so much the chinese version, just enough to check out a bit about the game). You add stats which makes your char at least a bit more customized. Character customization is "decent" aswell, you can even put little/giant head which made me laugh.

Dual classes are a good feature, tho you can't level both at the same time, you have to go to a NPC and choose the class you want to be primary and that one will get the exp.

Definitely this F2P seems promising, but lets see how the high end looks like since i don't know if it will have any PvE raids and such, or just another mindless leveling F2P.

Those who didn't get into the CB and want to try it out...this is the chinese download page http://ra.moliyo.com/page/download.shtml

Btw, P2P are not that good and i've tried a few...they usually are less "grindfest" with a bit more high end, but anyway they cut the "lvling grind" to make you grind the same raid/dungeon or whatever for mindless months...so it's about the same. You don't raid alone but with your guild/friends, the same goes to F2P games...you don't have to be alone...otherwise i think choosing to play a mmorpg is a bad idea ;)

Regards.

The game is fine, until lvl 60 you lvl up easily doing quests, 60-69 is the real pain tho...i believe they don't want people hitting lvl 69 before they can release new content. The only pure grind lvls would be...44-46 and 61-69 so is not that bad, btw I'm lvl 50 and quitted for a while waiting for new content and the new class, but the game is great.

Requiem FTW!  I don't know what the cash shop in requiem will look like...but Rohan one simply unbalances the game by A LOT, plus there is already a major issue with botting in Rohan. The grind in requiem currently seems very nice, since the level cap is not "very high" compared to Rohan plus you level faster in Requiem and the grind is less painful plus the dungeons are way better in requiem.

I've played Rohan jp and tried Rohan inter just to check out the version and uninstalled the game within 3 days. Requiem seems by far way better, but it lacks high content tho it will get better with the time.

Requiem for the high end in this version is unknown atm, just because the OB didn't have the whole content and nobody knows what the release will have atm, but the asian version doesn't look bad at all...from my point of view it will be the best F2P this year as long as you like this kind of mmorpg.

Edit : there is a nice upgrading system, from my point of view less painfull to do than Rohan one, weapon/armor has slots and you can make the weapons glow.

About bosses...they are not soloable in Requiem, at least the true bosses not just nightmare mobs :P and there are raids which means you need a good amount of people to get down a boss.

Item grades...you have: Etc, Ordinary, Supernus, Rare and Unique if im not wrong. There are sets aswell.

So far i like Requiem and it looks promising at least to play it while waiting for some P2P release.

Actually any F2P gets bored after a couple of months, weeks or even days/hours...so if requiem can hold my attention for a couple of months having some fun...it would be really nice. Maybe i'm waiting too much but it's the only F2P i currently like since there is not anything else worth to download.

I just hope they make a good release and not just a clone of the OB...

Still, with that 25% drop in experience leveling will be "fast" compared to the rest of F2P games, there are many 50+ and 55+ at the moment in the open beta when not even 1 month has passed since it oppened, so 25% drop in exp won't really be a matter. Don't forget that yes...they will drop the exp a 25%, but premium gives 50%...so premium users will gain about the same exp as you get now during the OB, they simply recover that 25% lost.

About the region chat...yes it sucks for finding a group, but if you are in a guild and knowing some people you couldn't care less about it. And no, you don't need group for first job change quest, people simply use pots. I'm sure they removed the region chat from free users because of the real spamming, it was painful and most of the time people just disabled it, so maybe give thanks to the noobs who fucked up that channel during the OB. Maybe there will be something to find group for free users or a way to shout in region channel such as a consumable or paying lant for example. If you don't get premium or basic you can even get a friend who has it to shout for you.

At least the region channel doesn't matter to me, plus if they make the released version much better compared to the OB (more content and such) i wouldn't mind paying a Basic or Premium service.

In every F2P people who spend more money is the one with the most advantage, but if requiem doesn't fuck it with the cash shop it will be an awsome game, as premium service it's simply great as it is now.

Edit to say that i've just read that general chat is going to have more range so people can look for party in the same area without the need of using region chat

Well, i don't know whats so bad to make free user accounts unplayable, premium account gains 50% more exp, 30%  more drops, 1 death penalty instead of 4 and being able to use region chat...so what? They will lvl faster but what did you hope? and the drops are for everyone...more drops...more items for sale, cheaper stuff.

I don't know what there will be in the item mall but...people who use to buy from it  would rather spend 15$ or 8$ for basic on a montly bonus other than 5$ for silly scrolls that increase ur exp for a few of hours.

People playing for free will lvl almost as fast as in the OB and getting the same drops and even lant drop will be better, so i don't get your complains since you have been playing almost as a free user until now...all because free users won't use region chat? god bless them! it was spamming chat for noobs.

So from my point of view i think premium and basic service is awsome.

Another thing is that they won't keep the game as it is now, it would be retarded and there will be a surprise in the released version, not everything will be perfect and polished but it will be by far better fixed than currently is. A new race is comming, not by the release date but it will be there soon. I might be wrong but they wont just release the game as it is now, that they didn't release new content for the OB doesn't mean they don't have it for the release. 

I'm gonna give it a chance before flame, as no one knows how the released version will be.

Btw it's a F2P game, but maybe you have never seen a premium service before.

I've played the OB until lvl 30's and suddenly said goodbye Rohan, is not a game for casuals, just for hardcore gamers who play 6+ hours a day. Until lvl 15-20 you say...woah...leveling is nice...but after 25's is just retarded grinding for hours, many hours, to reach a level. (Seems nice at lower levels because you level up almost everytime you got M.Kill ready, but at 30's you'll hardly get a 2-3% with x19 exp that means every 100 soloed mobs without get ksed....easy to say....slow to do)

The game has plenty of bugs...but well that'll get fixed so i'm not talking about it.

Most of the quests are not worth it to do, since you waste a lot of time walking thanks to the teleporting system (which lacks).You can just teleport to race maps and some dungeons by buying a scroll, and just walk over the map.

Dungeons are for everyone, they are instance but everyone enters in the same dungeon, you hardly find a good spot to level in since it's full of ksers and there is a lot of people grinding in the same area.

Anything else to do than grinding? oh yeah...you can pk after lvl 30 and make Guild vs Guild at higher levels! you may ask...all that insane hard grind for just that? yes, just for that as there is not anything else to do.

I already knew how Rohan was going to be, since i've tried jp version but i was hoping they were going to change it a bit in this version.

So...from my point of view, if you are casual gamer forget about this game, in the time you spend looking for party and walking to the grind spot half of your free time is gone. The game could have been better if it released many years ago together with l2....but these kind of games are pretty much dead nowdays.

Edit to say that yea...lvling in party maybe seems "fast" at low lvls, but later on is not the same thing, that means you need to party always to level up and the real grinding begins after 40's or 50's

I'm agree that Requiem is another asian grinder, but it's much faster to play than most of F2P out there, and offers many things that others don't. I've played many F2P and they all are...meh...

The last F2P i played is Rohan OB for few days (many people said rohan and requiem were going to be the best F2P), and i have to say that by far i prefer requiem because...leveling is faster with less lvl cap, both have plenty of bugs atm and i don't know...but Rohan seems to be more bugged plus its asian version has been out for years. Requiem servers support more people than rohan ones, it has non instance dungeons full of ksers and it's hard to find good spots to level up and plenty of other things.

The only better thing in Rohan i believe are the skills of some classes compared to requiem such as the cleric, and of course is a good game, but is not that oriented to mature people as you need plenty of time to play that game. Teleport system sucks, as there is none else than buying scrolls to different towns and walking all over the map.

Rohan would be good if it released 1 or 2 years ago...as at the moment it really offers nothing else than Guild VS Guild at later levels...too much grind for just that.

So from my point of view, requiem is one of the best F2P out there if not the best. People likes different games, so i advice anyone to try out a game instead of asking, because it won't make clear anything.

And yeah, comparing a F2P to a P2P game makes no sense, but requiem seems to be the closest F2P to a P2P game.

AoC as pc mmorpg is mediocre, tho it'll be good for 360 when the console version releases.

I don't really know how that many people subscribed to AoC...maybe because there haven't been many released P2P mmorpgs lately while the ones in the market are getting already old to start all over nowdays.

Well at least it's my opinion, i just didn't like it but i bet lot of people love it, just a matter of tastes.

I gave AoC a 6...maybe it deserves 6.5 or 7 like MAX but not more, and no i'm not a troll.

Whoever rates AoC as a 10 or 9 is because....

  1: Haven't played many mmorpgs, just F2P mmorpgs.

  2: His/her brain cells have been damaged when launching the game.

The game is far from a 10 come on...if some people say 1/10 rating comes from trolls...10 rating aswell come from trolls.

Currently playing...nothing, since there is not any great mmorpg atm, but i've played many mmorpgs (P2P and F2P). Waiting to see how Aion and Chronicles of Spellborn are...other than these P2P i don't find anything else worth it to play.

Yeah...korean OB was launched exactly on 21th july 2007 if i'm not wrong, and the english version will have different stuff, or at least that's what requiem staff said. That means is not just a copy and paste job.

I may agree that it has some more bugs compared to the CB (from what CB testers say), but remember the client was not the same, they didn't patch CB client so it's normal.

Just keep in mind that the korean Open Beta was released on July 2007, so is not like the game it's very smooth and has 0 bugs for them either, it took them many months to add the DNA system and many other things, our OB started 10 days ago so i'm not going to complain.

I'm agree that is weird...but thats the reason why i'm not currently playing it, just watching it's progress. I rather wait and see how it ends than currently get bored of the game in a Open Beta.

Edit: ermm just noticed that you talk about bugged sets...correct me if i'm wrong but they fixed that problem days ago, exactly 4 or 5 days ago so maybe you should check again.

Well, instances are there since ever, it fixes many problems, and as long as it comes to PvE...instances (certain dungeons, raids) are the best for everyone, i may agree that it sucks if instances are for PvP, but not many mmorpgs have just PvP instances. Instances in games usually don't stop you to keep that "massive multiplayer" you talk about, It's just for certain areas where you are not supposed to go alone, that means you won't do anything inside there other than annoy people (pking or anything).

Again, comparing instance system from mmorpgs to an action-rpg multiplayer game is like comparing the Ferrari with a Seat. These instances are just for certain areas where you can't do anything "good" alone as said above, and it doesn't just fix the problem of people, it helps in many different ways.

I might be wrong, but maybe you are used to play a mmorpg without instances for a long time, such as L2.

I may agree with you that it looks similar to WoW in some aspects of the game, but is not a WoW clone, after all, every new mmorpg released may looks similar to another old mmorpg, it's impossible to make whole new stuff for a game.

It's like if you say Ferrari is a clone of Seat...yes! they have 4 wheels! both are cars! the same happens with games.

refering to the OT, instance system is the best thing made ever, imagine fighting in an outdoors instance...too many people that you won't kill what you need. Every mmorpg has instance system nowdays.

Do you really think is that easy to bring an asian mmorpg to the english players napo?

If so...why almost every mmorpg released for english players is at least months/years behind asian updates?

Is not a copy and paste job made in 2 days, requiem is a "new" game not another asian game released for english players 2-5 years after the asian version. That means they gotta work on the content much more(the content comes with the time) , i know they don't have it, but it will come eventualy, and of course their priority is to fix the low lvl content before release a new one, low-mid content is the most played in every game, while high-end content is by far much less played.

So claiming right now in the OB (people is wrong with F2P OB because most of the games release OB's with cash shop that last for 6months-years) for new content when the low content is not fixed, is retarded, much more retarded when people knows the chances of the OB getting wiped are very high, if not 100%.

I'm not sure of your goal, but mine is not be the highest level with the best gear as sooner as possible.

And no, the game is not finished at all, not even the asian version (i've read somewhere that they got updates to the latest dungeons not much ago). You are very wrong if you think it's another ported game. Is not the same port a game released 3-4 years ago for asians (such as rohan) than port a fairly new one.

Requiem korea OB started on july 21, 2007, in case you didn't know.

Of course some people will leave the next days to play Rohan OB, but as soon as requiem fix the game they will come back. I've played rohan jp and the game is pretty much old, don't get me wrong, the game is good...but it's going to release a bit late here, the good thing of Rohan is GvG (guild vs guild) , it has 0 end game content, you only will do GvG and duels, nothing new really. I have more hopes on a new game than a 3-4 years old game.

game is mess

 

patcher is failure. Gravity does not respect its customer base or inform them of changes or new servers for pk, that get tossed upon us, and did not offer any char transfer or ability to pk on our home server.

 

there is NO , read it NO< content or dungeons past lvll 35, and you can get to level 35 ina  few days.

 

dna system is lacklustr and very limited, the beast possessino last short time, you gotta rebuff when your done , and  is wholely a waste of time.

 

there is nothing fun or unique to this game.

Don't get me wrong....but...customer? are you serious? are you a customer or are you a TESTER? i don't think you or any player currently pays them...but oh well...maybe you are paying them so you are a customer.

Patcher failure...it's normal when hundreds/thousands of people try to patch the game at the same time, i patched it days before OB without any problem. (also patcher was fixed as there is a new client available to download)

Lack of content, i agree but again, they are doing it pretty well for a NEW game, first they'll fix the low lvl content and then they'll work on high levels, sounds fair to me.

They informed that a pk server was going to be ADDED, so it's your main problem if you decided to level up hard in a NON PK server, they didn't order you to level up, did they?

About DNA...what did you expect? the same goes for beast possession.

Ye...i got to lvl 30+ aswell and there is lack of content...but hey, it's supposed to be a game for mature people, not a game where kids get to level 40 in 2 days.  Currently i'm not playing the game (just watching it's progress) but i still enjoy it when i log in.

The only thing i don't like so much are the classes, just because it lacks some of the ones i like more, but well, it's fine anyways.

Regards

Is not another grind-fest asian game more, actually is much better than most of F2P, and the time to level up isn't that much.

The fact that the game is not another asian mmorpg more is that the game is "new", and not just another english version released many many years after the asian version.

About crashes...depends on your machine and about if you bother reading forums a bit to fix the problem i guess, never say most of people get crashes because is not true. I got just 2 or 3 crashes since OB started, which it's pretty nice.

To me it seems a game with so much potential, and the OB won't last for many months/years such as the rest of english asian versions. At least for now their staff is working for FREE 100%, not as most of F2P which launch OB with cash shop from day 1 when the game still has bugs (even when the asian version was released many years ago).

So...does requiem sucks? well, depends on what you like.

Does it deserves a try? of course, every game does.

You can move with mouse or WSDA, the world is...enough for now...you will have to walk so much, even in the towns :S , the community...well on the forums most of people are nice, in the game...everyone knows there is always some dumb around. There are quests, many at least the first 30-35 levels, i don't know after that since i'm not more level than that.

How is requiem? hmm from my point of view the game is fine, but still has a lot of bugs to fix

Hmm i think i don't understand the point of this...each race has it's own classes so is not that one sucks and the rest are better, it all depends on what do you like. However my favourite is kruxena as rogue, but the other 2 races are fine to me aswell, but i prefer play as rogue.
