Don't you think that would have been smart to mention before people signed up and downloaded the client..?!
Ok, I'm really not trying to knock on you but there is something I am not understanding. How is it that you have a downloadable game client but you don't have any screenshots in the media section of your website?
Very Understandable and this is allright we don't mind question at www.Elantia-online.com Staff Team.
We are in Beta for "Server & Client" Game content is still in very very Alpha stage form. We want to make sure to get our client and server base set and done before we work on content. I and the staff see so many games out there that are in there fourth year of dedicated well known service and STILL patching bugs and server/client server problems. At Angel Moon Studio's we want the backbone and the server fixed and finished. That means open Beta for that part. when we released EO for testing we got a mass of bugs out there and we are a thankfull crew to have awsome testers who make things go MUCH Faster this way.
Again any questions feel free to answer, sorry for the fast replys as I'm answering many people at one time

edit. Also wanted to say its nice to see a game with a few original classes. Nice job. I'll be watching to see how they turn out as the classes are one of the most important parts of a game to me.
Well Open Beta means Open Beta anyone can download and play the beta client and server the content is there but it's not related to the game at all we are just testing scripts. Call if Alpha if you may. Again any questions feel free to ask. Elantia-Online has sent an email regaurding the "Games in Development" section for a forum. Hope we get it as my staff is very pleased to give more information.
For those that may not know those who register on the site and sign up the first 500 Users will get a "FFL Flagged Account" On game launch. This simply means you have anaccount Free For Life all releases. Never pay for your account.
So Again Register and become part of this fast growing community.

And, what 'email' would that be...because I did not get any such email?
Again your Client is downloadable on the MAIN Post on this topic at GGE The install pass is "agree" but we are sending out a new Install in just afew days so if you wait for the new cleint to upload you won't have to do double work by re patching something that's old
edit. Also wanted to say its nice to see a game with a few original classes. Nice job. I'll be watching to see how they turn out as the classes are one of the most important parts of a game to me.
The classes are far from final, and we have yet to decide which ones to use. If you want, then feel free to tell us, what kind of classes you want? Casters, Pet classes, or Dmg and so on and so forth. Feedback and suggestions are always welcome
Oh, btw. I am Skunk, the storyline director for Elantia Online. I am in charge of, well, the storyline (Background info, factions and such) but i also manage the wiki, and add information to it. Nearly done with the layout, so soon we will be able to feature more content in the wiki itself.
I'm all for indie's in getting their MMO's out, but there are some things that need to be addressed here:
- Before going public, ensure that the website is finished. A website presence is one of the determining factors for users in gauging a title. The website doesn't need to be flashy and eye-candy everywhere, but it does need to be fully functional and cleaned up.
- What is Elantia Online? There is nothing to state what the title is on the home page. Describe it for us short-term web-browsers.
- Do not mislead the gamer community. The gamer community does give leeway to indie's, due to the limitations indies have. The title of, "Chronicles Of Elantia Online - Open Beta" implies that the game is in Open Beta status, but this is not the case. Now "Open Alpha Testing" or even "Open Testing" can work, but not Beta.
- Move the client software installer to the website (such as the media section). By having it hosted at another site, this will cause problems and looks less professional (unless it is an open source project).
I would advise against getting Elantia Online listed on MMORPG.Com until all of the ducks are presented in a row. Get to a working demo state with screenshots, a presentable website and it will be good to go. It is too early right now with what is available.
And that is why...
Conservatives' pessimism is conducive to their happiness in three ways. First, they are rarely surprised -- they are right more often than not about the course of events. Second, when they are wrong they are happy to be so. Third, because pessimistic conservatives put not their faith in princes -- government -- they accept that happiness is a function of fending for oneself. They believe that happiness is an activity -- it is inseparable from the pursuit of happiness.
First off i can't find the installer second i have an account have logged in to the forum and now it says I'm not a member starting to make me think the theres a few too many problems to make it worth my time trying to help test it if you can't even get the web pages working.
Comments
The damn installer needs a password, what the hell is up with that..?!

Then your in Alpha, because Beta is before Final...so you cannot say you're in Beta at the present moment.
