Was wondering if ArchLord is active? And if it really is impossible to get past 50 without the cash shop? And one more, does anyone else have a problem with its movement? I seem to step back after I stop walking.

Currently restarting World of Warcraft :/

I heard it isn't that great..ive never actually tried it though so I can't tell you really.

I don't hear much chatter about it on the forums also.

I just recently started playing it also so i cant coment on the cash shop thing. But the step back thing is just server lag. Im only lvl 7 atm and really just killing time till War comes out anyway.

Hm I guess. It is free and you cant expect a free game to be like WoW can you now? :) I guess I can get used to it.

  Archlord is one of the better free mmos out there, despite the hate people have for it.  Alot of people hate it because they think it sucks. Alot of people also hate it because they had to pay for it before it went f2p :P

Archlord is a pay2play quality MMORPG that went Free2play. It's probably the best quality free2play MMORPG out there.

i played it until about level 15...  than just got bored. But I get bored real fast with MMORPG's now a days.

God is a fucker send me to hell

It is a grinder, if that is what you like.  When they implemented the cash shop, they of course upped the grind level so they could sell their cash shop goodies.  If you are persistent, you can get your character up high without the cash shop, but that probably won't happen for most of us.

Well to be fair, it is a korean f2p game that Codemasters tried to pass off as p2p :P

The game used to be p2p in Korea as well, but changed business model along the way.
It actually had a huge following but they lost a lot of players after release, most blamed on extremely poor customer service from NHN. The game is still very popular in China though.

I played for a while , its actually a pretty good game but a little grindy.

The problem I had with it is the whole item mall thing really screwed up the game , you have to spend money for items in order to be competitive in pvp and those who spend the most become OP so its all imbalanced.

Its kinda like a nice game with good graphics and skills , nice layout , nice environment that was made well and then Codemasters came in and messed it up for everyone . The original players left , there were incidences involving corrupt GMs , people getting banned for no reason and the whole system is all about the greed of Codemaster`s , all they care about is selling the crap in the cash shop .
