This past weekend, we had the opportunity to check in with NetGame's Rise of the Dragonian Era or RODE as it is more commonly known. RODE is currently in closed beta testing with this weekend being one that specifically targeted the game's PvP aspect. See what we thought of our time in the game.
There are several features that RODE developers are quite proud of when talking about the game though there was no opportunity to see them during this weekend's PvP event. Among other things, players will be able to ride dragons. But these dragons will be more than simply mounts. RODE will ship with aerial combat with players mounted on dragons. If that doesn't conjur visions of Eregon, nothing will. Players will also have the chance to participate in castle sieges in the contested Piral zone as well as have their holdings randomly attacked by monsters utilizing the "Deablo" system. According to what devs have said, this is to "create tension".

"Forums aren't for intelligent discussion; they're for blow-hards with unwavering opinions."
There seems to be a new generation of eastern grinders that all seem similar in some striking ways. Sevencore, RODE, Rosh. Seems odd. I haven't looked into it deeply, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were variants of each other.
They look decent, but is the movement wasd or point and click?

Soooo... It's the same piece of generic trash that we've been seeing for the past five-six years now? Oh, okay. Nothing to see here folks. But really, people need to get with the times man. How many of more of these are we going to have to see? Crappy translations, crappy combat, no story to speak of what so ever. Stats and leveling doesn't mean it's an RPG.
why so immediately harsh? The graphics actually look pretty good, watch some youtube vids or something.
It's really not as cool as you think to just jump to conclusions about every eastern mmo.
could you be more specific? every mmo uses time delays and such, well every mainstream one.
