Archeage

Is anyone else here looking forward to more info on this game. It seems like its a sandpark(themepark and sandbox elements combined). Someone on mmorpg.com got a hold of an account to try out beta: http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/...ersonal-experience-of-ArcheAge-Open-Beta.html

What interests me is the idea of the endgame continent that is all sandbox. It is controlled by the guilds and players, you can build houses, boats, siege weaponry, etc. Unfortunately it seems the combat and levelling is pretty standard fare themepark. As of right now the game is in open beta in Korea and the rumors are of a start to closed beta in America and Europe sometime this year.

Why?

YOGSCAST!!!! I watched every single episode of yogscast about Guild Wars 2 before it was out, so much fun!!

My only issue with this game is it is Korean in the sense of leveling and combat. Put this world on top of the GW2 engine and man what a game we would have..

Yeah but I think I could look past the standard fare levelling experience, enjoy the visuals and work towards having a house and a boat and some sort of siege warfare lol.

Just got a major upgrade for those of us who dont read/write/speak Korean. I am not sure if anyone had checked it a few months back but it was non-existant!

I've been looking to this game, and same with Blade and Soul. I didn't really like the UI not very appealing as well, but from what I hear there is a lot of hype and good stuff for this game.

That is actually REALLY cool looking. Maybe the combat isn't the best or quests but the end game does look like a lot of fun!

 

[Tulzscha]

Quests? End game? I think you all missed the best part. Disco lights! And dancing in combat! xD

<3 those Yogscast guys. ^^

 

[Tulzscha]

ZOMG! rofl!

Yeah so far there is basically an endgame continent to explore, areas to settle, build castles, defend land and sea, and set up trade routes. I meam cmon a legitimate Arcanix/Alttabme castle that we build with our own virtual blood, sweat and tears that we can claim, defend, and protect our own land? Sounds fucking awesome to me.
