Beta - What to expect

highbornhighborn Disciple StaffMember Posts: 64

Hello MMORPG.com

First I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their support of our game.  At first I think people were a bit confused when they saw the screenshots for our game, but now it looks like everyone is catching on to the fact that this is a browser game, and it seems people are excited / looking forward to it.

In regards to the Beta that will open, I wanted to give everyone and Idea of what to expect.  In general, everything in the game will work like it should.  You will notice to issues:

1. The game will perform a bit slower than normal.  We will be running tracing programs and debugging software in the background, so the animations won't be quite as fast and smooth as they normally are.  This will not be an issue after the full launch of the game on May 12th.

2.  The game is a bit unbalanced.  Some of the classes may have small advantages over the other classes, but this is the main purpose behind the beta.  We are relying on our tester's battle results and direct feedback to balance the game the best we possibly can before the real launch on May 12th.  The game is certainly in good shape now, but we need your help to make it the best it can be.

Aside from those two issues, everything should work perfectly, and this will give the testers the chance to get a sneak peak, and a headstart in terms of knowledge and expereince.

*Also note that the characters you make in beta will not be available once the beta is over.  On May 12 when the game fully launches, all players will need to start from the begining.

I hope this helps, and thanks for reading.

    Hopefully we will see it start or get word from the powers that be on what is going on.   I saw the post on pricing for extra content.  That will not mean much if we cannot even enter the game yet.  lol

    Well, no news, bad news.

    I'm impatient because i really want to take a look at the game. Here it is 15:24. I hope that if there is any problem with the beta, devs will at least post something.
