Archlord for free!
But why its no succes at all (2servers with low pops:P)
Played it for week and its so flawed so much lag, so many dumb gameplay machenics that make game bad for playing, its so damn easy in many ways, they have make the same big mistakes many mmo have make before, thats why it failed, do some ever learn?
How long is game on market ? rubberbanding, combatlag, lag in all forms, bots, overpowerd classes game is tailor made for bots.
Can train alot mobs over area and kill them in seconds while other classes cant, sure you can make also same class and do same ,but is that how game should be played lol dont think so.
Players can herrash other players with pulling all mobs away ks mobs and you cant say any bad word becouse its censored sure you can kill them but there mostly much higher lvls who just zerg through area and you have to move becouse its unplayble many bots ruin it to have fun.
But the numbers of players who play archlord say enough this game have failed:P
And so many more things why this game fails bah:(

At first I thought you were asking a question as to why it has failed, but realized you were stating it. Anyhow I agree with you on the flaws of the game. I didn't even give the game more then 30 minutes of play before I decided that It wasn't all that great for me.
what are you talking about? Both servers are on medium population at all time, and on full population at peak times.
Its far from empty.
"Can train alot mobs over area and kill them in seconds while other classes cant, sure you can make also same class and do same ,but is that how game should be played lol dont think so"
I'll translate the OP:
I have no clue what the hell I'm talking about.
EVERY class in the game can train and AoE mobs, EVERY single class has those abilities. have you even played the game? I doubt it.
your obviously a fanboi thats np and you fancy pulling all mobs in a train from area and kill them in seconds with elementalist with aoe.
Can a ranger do that no a knight no and prolly some more classes and in last week ive played, most citys and areas are empty only for those damn bots on hunting grounds.
This game is so flawed it failed in alot of areas thats why 2 servers with low pops.
Thats why its free:P

Name a a big fantasy game that doesnt have an AoE class that uses the exact same strategy you mentioned.
Archlord is very popular in asia I thought, it is just the western version that failed. If they didn't try to rip people off by making the game pay to play this game would be alot more popular right now. Taking peoples money and then a year later giving the same product out for free to everyone makes for alot of pissed off people.
Also the game should be free because it was made to be free.
Okay, you obviously are completely clueless how this game works.
First of all, ArchLord is empty?
yeah, right:
h1.ripway.com/Kite/Empty.JPG
I just logged in, its far from peak time and both servers are on medium state. Oh by the way, the above picture is just one of 3 starter areas.
you can't AoE with a ranger? Are you freaking kidding me!?
You can start AoEing from level 10!
h1.ripway.com/Kite/RangerAOE1.JPG
then to further prove you wrong, there are other AoE skills.
like this one:
ripway.com/members/getfile.asp
and this one:
ripway.com/members/getfile.asp
and thats just from one tree, and I didn't even mention all of them. So yes, a ranger can AoE train. You saying you're unable to do so says more about you than it does about the game.
Now for the Knight:
ripway.com/members/getfile.asp
just like the Ranger, you can start Area of effecting from level 10. In fact, every class can start AoEing from level 10.
ripway.com/members/getfile.asp
second AoE. There are about 3 ~ 4 more AoE's for Knight, but I couldn't be bothered to take a screenshot of them.
Saying those classes can't AoE is just downright incorrect. You're just completely wrong.
The korean developer wanted it to be free else they wont provide future support for the game. Codemaster is famous for trying to earn extra GBP from all MMO they publish and they prefer P2P than F2P for balance gameplay. But their plan have been shattered by the koreans so they have to follow what they are told.
Games that goes F2P published by Codemasters were : RF Online , Archlord
p/s : bring true facts in future instead of saying OFMG, archlord is free coz game is buggy and servers low pop lol!!11
All canceled. Waiting on Warhammer Online : Age of Reckoning.
The whole concept was due to failure before it even released.I thought that concept was retarded to say the least.There isn't a good all round PVP concept out there IMO.I originally was going to say there isn't any intelligent devs making these PVP games ,however the reality is time and cost to develope a game.Great concepts may look great on paper ,but if it takes forever to achieve then it's not gonna happen.Well not unless a giant pocketbook like SONY decides to make it happen.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Also still alot bugs in game many quests dont even work like items not dropping or should farm for then 24hours untill 10 items drop that i need for quest lol
So every class can aoe lol thats dumb, normally caster classes should have abillity to aoe not every damn class and secondly if a caster class can aoe and kill with ease 10 mobs at time that should have consequences i see caster classes tank alot of mobs at ones if he was a warrior tank:P omg this game is very weard:P
caster class should always have a much stronger aoe then a knight or a ranger if thats not the case then this game is even more stupid then i already experience:P
Ive not look into aoe for my ranger becouse i use skills for my bow and for my class aoe is something that dont belong in a skill tree for ranger or knight for that matter anyway.
Not yet seen ranger killing many mobs with aoe anyway and as it should be,it looks pritty dumb if a ranger with a bow killing mobs with magic instead of his bow:P
Its in away good to wait for game so i can find out those other mmo,s that a free and see how they do archlord maybe in korea popular but its a bad designed game with flaws and bugs and totally focussed on grinding thats why prolly every class have aoe lmao here:P

So let me get this straight.. I am by no means a fan of Archlord at all. But you are telling me that this game is stupid for following a different design for AoE implementation. If you want all games to follow the same standard design and mechanics then why should there even be multiple MMO available out there?
So all I learned from this thread is that Forest once again talks down about a game he has played to level 5 or less. What else is new?
Wow Forrest, you simply are wrong about so many aspects of the game that i cant even understand why you would bother posting.

@ out, so stay down and wait for a new day to fight...
The reason AL is free to play is because when the game was originally introduced it had poorly implemented pvp and poorly implemented pve.
Things may have chenged since then but I doubt it. AL was losing players left and right, people were quitting at around lvl 50 because the grind to lvl up was so excrutiatingly painful, and repeitive - I was in the top guild a very high lvl and we all basically quit.
pve - mindnumbingly boring after a while, don't die or you will lose 30 mins or an hour of leveling. Elite mobs chances of dropping anything decent very slim, so most people just run past them and don't bother killing them. Quests, boring and dull for the most part.
pvp - is not hard core as orignally advertised, (the pve is hard core) if your into mindlessly killing the same mob over and over and over again. pvp is not open, you have to ctrl click to initiate (most western mmo's you just click and start attacking) try it you will see what I am talking about. A real pain, cumbersome would be the best way to describe it.
I'm not sure if the have fixed the bounty system, but it was really messed up. There was no AL at release, so a lot of players left because there wasn't a lot to do in the game besides twink your gear and lvl. Guilds didn't want to pvp us because they didn't want to lose skulls to us.
So that's why AL is free to play now.
Is it a better game than 3 months ago? Somehow I doubt it. All I have to think about is the poorly implemented pvp and the mindnumgly boring and repetitive grind for me to shudder and think I will never go back to play AL ever again. There's just so many more better games out there.
If you have no job and can't afford to pay to play, then AL is an option. Not the best (Anarchy Online and Shadowbane are much better games) but it is an option. It has nice armours, decent graphics and twinking your weapons and armours is fun.
But character customization is zero, in fact it's so bad that if you want to be a human mage or an moon elf elementalist, you have to be a female. Bad design decesion imo.
But heh the whole game is a bad design decesion.
Having a player AL is an amazing concept for a game, it's just been put in a really bad game. And that my friend pretty well sums up why AL is free.
Because obviously people aren't paying for the game. Because, as everyone knows, as soon as a game switches to a micro transaction model, a company no longer has to pay developers, servers costs, other staff. Nope, when a comapny switches to a micro transaction model, they let others play the game out of charity.
In case you didn't notice, the above was sarcasm.
Just because a game is now running on micro transactions does not mean that it doesn't require the same amount of funds. In fact, Since the MT model comes with more players, it increases the bills. There are still bills to be paid, and there are people paying and playing this game, despite your miss informed propeganda.
so first you complain that not every class can AoE.
Then I prove you wrong and show you that every class can AoE.
and now you complain that every class has the ability to AoE...?
Caster classes should always have much better AoE's in a game focused on AoE grinding?
Newsflash: Casters do have slightly better AoE's.
you use skills for your bow? err...Those skills work with both a Kataria and a bow, so I'm not really sure what what you're getting at..
Not yet seen ranger killing many mobs with AoE anyway? Thats not so strange. You obviously haven't played the game for very long, so you have only seen other newbies. However most new players don't know the game is all about Area of Effect. In fact, looking at the great number of quests, its no surprise many people assume this is a game about questing, killing mobs one by one.
I'd like to take the time and tell you now that I have yet to play ArchLord so therefore my opinion is completely unbias.
Alright, to start off first. I would like to point out that it took me about 5 minutes to decypher each of Forests messages. Had to have my "Learn to Speak English For Dummies" book at hand just to ensure I was reading the right thing.
For purposes such as having fun while still flaming, I decided to, instead of quoting Forest, simply screenshot both of his posts and then spice it up with some Paint action. Here is the first, the one that states how rediculous and unfair it is that one class such as the mage can AoE grind and the others cannot.

And here is the one stating how he thinks its lame that they all can...o.O

Gaming isn't just a hobby, it's a way of life.
All I've got to say, is a few months ago I bought Archlord at EBGames for $20 expecting SOMETHING worth playing, and for about a week it was worth playing, but things get so repetitive. Archlord wasn't a hit when it came out, and in my opinion it never will be, It started out P2P, then eventually went to a one time fee game, and now they're handing CD keys out free, I hate to say it but they just need to let the game die, because its headed nowhere but downhill.
I get this nagging feeling that it attracts a slightly larger crowd then Runescape....And that game is still around. o.O

1: Both servers are full, do your research
2: Micro transactions has nothing to do with quality. Do you think that when a game follows an MT model, that the game no longer has costs such as server upkeep, content development and staff?
and don't like decisions? You actually do have to make decisions in AL, you clearly have no clue what you're talking about.
by the way, how many accounts have you created now? 5? 6? Here is a suggestion: Stop trolling so much and perhaps the mods might actually let you keep your account.
Archlord is not subpar, its simply isnt fit for monthly fee, any game that has an item mall built into the system,should stick to item mall.
Archlord trying to do box, and item mall and monthly fee all in one, was overstepping its bounds.
Anyway, archlord is good, perfect world is better.
