Re: Rise of the Archons - Rule of the Arcane Lords

Exactly, there is now a massive disadvantage on the players that couldn't geek levels and buy the skills form the shops, so that means all the people that have the skills can now keep levelling faster / and gain even more of a massive advantage and the players that weren't able to buy the skills now have to try and obtain them form a sub/boss, while the players that already have em can just keep flying up the levels...

Suprised your still commited :P

Re: Rise of the Archons - Rule of the Arcane Lords

Alchemy not ingame?

14 provinces not ingame?

Hiring of 'mercenaries' not ingame?

I can keep the list going if u wish ?

seems alot of things on your initial advert are either not ingame or not completed....nice sales techniques though.

I've got to agree although I thought the alchemist was where you can sell the alchemist items such as batwings and scorpion tails etc.

The 'province guide' on the server homepage shows the 7 'original' provinces and then at the bottom

The Seven Provinces of the New World

For many thousands of years, the New World has been banished of humans. The power of the Lords here is unwavering, it is truly a cruel place to be.
More information on the Seven Provinces of the New World and their dungeons will be announced in the lead up to beta testing.

The 14 provinces intrigued me but I'm not devastated that they aren't in game already. I've been playing for a few hours and it's already big enough 'world' simply down to the lack of teleport locations available.

The mercenaries is what i'm seriously disappointed with. I, personally, like to level in between certain jobs and am often side tracked by e-mails and such so group hunting is certainly not for me the majority of the time but having a pet / mercenary would've aided me dramatically. I can't remember the server but I remember you used to be able to purchase an ingame BoneLord... a little extreme for where the server is at currently but I always liked that idea.

The server on a whole is a good server to play. There are plenty of people in game no matter what others have posted above I can guarantee that the user count is genuine. Every single town has people running about / afk (as is to be expected in safezones).

I like the fact that no town is the same from an npc point of view. Items that can be purchased in one village may not be available in the next.

There are a couple of questionable decisions / changes that have been made but on the whole the community seems to be able to voice concern to Scorp and the team and it actually gets listened to and actioned upon.

This server has done what others have lacked, it's started from the ground up. By setting different classes on different courses from the beginning it becomes a challenge, but a fun challenge. In your starting village / location you only tend to see similar classes to yourself and the occasional wanderer who has travelled across the maps... I'm yet to discover why!

I'm interested to see what else the development team have up their sleeves.

Logged on, literally laughed out loud at the way it looks and logged out and uninstalled.

Just cannot take that step back in aesthetic quality after Crystal/Marble. No matter how good it may be.

I gotta admit, I thought it looked ok to be honest. Was surprised as I was expecting it to be more jarring. The controls took me aback a bit, and menus popping and things but visually....yeah, not too bad.

Re: Rise of the Archons - Rule of the Arcane Lords

Too clunky for me after only playing Crystal/Marble for the last 2 years? So maybe I'm just too used to the newer versions. Shame the guy with most capabilities and experience in said files has seemingly falling back in love with Heroes files. The mind boggles.

Re: Rise of the Archons - Rule of the Arcane Lords

Things like this tend to happen when there is something missing like a dll. Are there any errors when you patch? Not diagnosed it before so not sure what to say next

Re: Rise of the Archons - Rule of the Arcane Lords

Hi, was wondering if anyone has encountered the problem i am having right now and been able to fix it? i have tried to search for a fix online but nothing.

I have played numerous mir2 servers in the past with the same PC and settings, my drivers are all fully updated and never had this problem.

When i load the game in full screen, its a white screen, however i can hear the music. when i load up the game in windowed mode then try click to full screen again it goes white but can still hear everything that's going on in the game, i can even move my char and hear the footsteps...

sounds like a resolution or graphics problem, tinkered about with the res for a good hour to no success, and all my graphics drivers are up to date.

any help or info would be appreciated/ ty

As strange as it sounds i've also encountered this but I've been able to resolve it by CTRL + ALT + DELETE and opening the task manager, then switching back to the game.
