I've watched tons of vids on this game, still reading the info but it looks legit. Yes it is still kind of buggy, yes it is Korean, but it does look like the MMO game I'm looking for.
The attention to detail in this game from ships to castles to crafting to prison for criminals looks great, all the videos are certified NDA free so all looks good, however what we don't see is how it all hangs together, so I for one won't get over excited until I get some playtime. I am sorely tempted to start Korean lessons though as on the face of it AA is the missing link.
What I seen of the game so far seems promising but I also have a feelingthat it might be to good to be true...
After all is this not the first sandbox we seen that sounds great, and all the rest of them never really came close, most of them just plain sucked. Eve and SWG had their points and I still think Eve is a pretty good game.
I guess we just have to wait and see, I wont get my hopes up until they at least have a western publisher.
I think there is a difference between games like SWG and games like DF and MO.
Those titles promised heaven and earth without having much to show for it. Then release comes and we all got to see what they had, which was nothing all along.
Archage not only tells us about all these features, they show them off too. These features are legit, as they are in the game and working. It's a big difference from a promise that has no proof to be real.
I think Archage is legit. I just hope a western publisher shows up and they make the appropriate changes to the game to satisfy our market.

Here is a new Siege video from the folks at Archeagerussia.ru showing the current status of sieges.
The payment model has NOT been firmly stated yet. BUT would you as a major game company pay $50M for a localized F2P game? I doubt it, can't say 100%, but I rather suspect P2P is much more likely than F2P/B2P.
the thing is.. AOC cost up around that price and its now semi F2P.. star trak as well cost alot to make and is not f2p.. which is why i personally dont shuffle f2p as impossible for AA... but alot of people are claiming it is f2p (mind you some people mix up trials with f2p... and think full trials upto level 20 is f2p when its not)
seriously though, AA could pull off F2P easy enough hell even a 1 time B2P like gw1 could work it all depends on how much popularity it has for boxed sales (boxed sales in line of cd key ect) if b2p would work..
though who knows.. i personally just want a more offical statement on the what model they are looking at.. alot of really decent games that cost alot to make have gone f2p... or free to some extent, so its hard to say anymore ...
You all think this games all that it looks good yes but have we played it yet no like all other games we have no idea if its click to play or has WASD controls or what. But I think the fact this might be a F2P game cause most Asian games are F2P just cause Aion and Tera are does not mean this will be they can sell all kinds of none P2W stuff in the shop all for looks look at some of the vids some are dressed as pirates some no cloths just a big fish on there back and in some others all the different mounts alone could be CS only seen it before with a game called Runes you can only get mounts via CS. Ok now this is a basic copy in a sense with alot of added features from this game.
Dark and Light had alot of the same features as this from air ships to gliders and all kinds of world control PvP. I know played it for the last 4 or 5 months it was open and had a blast and it had quests and everything plus very in depth crafting system. But no body really played it in fact alot of people dogged it on these same forums and many others as being a mess of a joke. But I didnt care I had fun with it and would still have fun with it today if it was around. As for this game I hope it comes here and is a good game i dont think it will be better then good like all games but until I play it for myself and not listen to everyone else who has or hasen't its only another game coming down the line no excitment here only excited for GW2 cause I seen what the game has as well and read reviews and have been following it sense it was anounced back after EoTN release. This I heard about a year ago here and though it sounded cool but wanted to see more and have so till a release date I will wait and see.

Still only 50v50, but looking pretty good. Couple graphic issues is all I could see.
