Well, some things I dont like about RYL are the graphics. Distant character models look like unmoving stick figures until you get close then they pop fully detailed. I have a high end machine and it gets laggy. I get better fps in CoH and CoH has way better gfx. I know gfx doesnt make me play a game but they are an annoyance in RyL.

Also when mobs spawn they kinda flip out of the ground. The lag is also really bad which leads to alot of KSing which isnt a real big deal as the battles are fast. And since the lag is bad creatures will just disapear and reapear and you may see mobs that have no life walking around; maybe they killed someone and the mob lived, and you go over to kill it and it gets all its life back. Maybe a bug or just lag but happens all the time.

High lvls will walk around the noobie zone challenging you to a duel over and over. And when they do a screen pops up to confirm the duel and in doing so it takes you out of battle because it is supposedly a real time battle; meanwhile the mob is still attacking you and you have to click the no box on the duel. May sound simple but the lag delays this and meanwhile your dieing. Then you finally hit no and he asks again and again and again. To the point you have to leave the area.

Also since the game is free it is filled with young dumb griefers, loudmouths, talking and cussing in all caps nonstop. Player stores or players that sell items jack the prices up and scam newbies with false advertising. Also noone has spoke to me in game asking if I needed help or to strike up any convo's. Community thus far seems counter intuitive and destructive.

First quest was bugged. I had to go kill various monsters and when I got to the last mob (a goblin) and had to kill 3 of them and I ended up killing maybe 20 and still the quest never ended. Also in the quest menu you can hit map and it brings up the map in the middle of your screen and I couldnt minimize the map even if I hit the button again and had to relog to get rid of the map.

Ok that is some of the bad now some of the good.

The battles are fast and fun. You can level fast too. Thats about it. Oh and its free. But Id rather pay cause I know if it was P2P the idiots would leave.

Your so true about everything i just highlighted

I rate the game 6/10. You should give it a try. There are some good ppl in this game but many of them are f**king asshole.

I'm about to play in about one hour.

You probably played it with 800x600. It gets laggy because you played the Malaysian server. The Malaysian server only had 800x600 resolution, and they took out the music for some unknown reason.Also when mobs spawn they kinda flip out of the ground.

Maybe a bug or just lag but happens all the time. Again, the Malaysian server sucks, and you are far away from where the server is located which = SUPER LAGHigh lvls will walk around the noobie zone challenging you to a duel over and over.

I will be anything that there won't be that many of those kind of people in the NA server. And plus, you won't hear sentences constantly ending with "LIAOZ, LAH, LOR"Also since the game is free it is filled with young dumb griefers, loudmouths, talking and cussing in all caps nonstop. Player stores or players that sell items jack the prices up and scam newbies with false advertising. Also noone has spoke to me in game asking if I needed help or to strike up any convo's. Community thus far seems counter intuitive and destructive.It's not free, it is in open beta for the Malaysian version (closed beta for NA version atm).First quest was bugged. I had to go kill various monsters and when I got to the last mob (a goblin) and had to kill 3 of them and I ended up killing maybe 20 and still the quest never ended. Also in the quest menu you can hit map and it brings up the map in the middle of your screen and I couldnt minimize the map even if I hit the button again and had to relog to get rid of the map.That is why it's called beta.

And to end this, The NA version will have a version higher than the current Malaysian version even though it is in closed beta and not open beta. It's all about the publishers (CiB = Malaysian, Planetwidegames= North American). You should give it a try when the NA version goes to open beta (within 2-3 weeks).
