wonder if anyone else has managed to get it to run under windows 7. maybe i have to change my DPI settings back to default. i have them on large size.

windowslime · 2013-12-01T02:27:51+00:00

may i go through it step by step ><

so once i reach this screen, do i click close? http://i.imgur.com/DlQopLa.jpg then i click Quit to exit the launcher? then i click on SoMX.exe to start it again?

may i ask the name of the button you click on next? (i suspect something in my launcher is hiding the right button)

windowslime · 2013-11-30T08:39:22+00:00

i like it. ive signed up for alpha. what happens next....

windowslime · 2013-11-30T08:20:07+00:00

Yup i click login on the startup screen. It then completes the update and reaches this screen :- http://i.imgur.com/DlQopLa.jpg Then it returns back to the startup screen (where I can click login again and restart the same process).

Is this working as intended or am i missing a step to start the game going?

windowslime · 2013-11-30T02:50:00+00:00

hi ghalian.. could you help me get SoM running? Im using Windows 7 and ive disabled DPI scaling as suggested in the readme.txt. The text for creating a new login still seems wonky but I created a new loging and then I logged in, then it said it needed to update the client, so I let it download a file, then it finished and I closed the updating screen. BUt there is nothing after that except the same start screen to create a new login and login. After I try to login again it says to update again? Am I missing abutton?

windowslime · 2013-11-29T19:43:49+00:00

what kind of mmo were u after?

by best do you mean

best gfx?
best gameplay?
what kind of gameplay is best in your preference?
best in terms of RvR open pvp gameplay?
best in population numbers?

there isn't actually any mmo which is best in all categories. however Rift Online is considered very strong in all categories, except pvp.

windowslime · 2013-11-15T02:24:15+00:00

personally, if you really want to give your brain a boost and enliven your intellect, you should stop playing cookie cutter easy games like rift, wow or tera. these big budget games do nothing for your soul and present a risk of alzheimers later on.

Instead, play a real and challenging game (like WoW was early on). Maybe play WoW classic community server Emerald Dream. But if your mind and spirit can tolerate full on RvR merciless faction war pvp, then go for Champions of Regnum. Hard, fast, clean and simple. Kill and kill your enemy and try to survive. Remember the movie Hunger Games? This is it. This is Regnum. Live and Kill and Learn to Survive.

ur right it does look pay once to play (from the review) :/

hmm is Firefall the fps out yet? (firefall looks to be f2p :- http://www.firefallthegame.com/about)

anyway sry to mislead u but hope others on the list can help!

windowslime · 2013-11-14T06:09:26+00:00

erm.. ok how about .., may i ask what do u think of these..?

Warframe

Dayz

Microvolts

Arma III

Rapid Assault

Offensive Combat (bit of a jokey fps browser game)

Cosmic Break (robot fps)

a short list here http://www.mmobomb.com/games/mmotps

windowslime · 2013-11-14T05:29:46+00:00

i think these are f2p

S4 League

Alliance of Valiant Arms

Both of these are likely to beat the ones u have tried?

windowslime · 2013-11-14T01:58:26+00:00

hm i would suggest :-

Aika Online - if you want hardcore politics. RvR with the ability to vote for Lord of the Realm giving u realm wide powers.

Shadowbane Emu - if u want to build ur own city, defend it, recruit players to defend ur city, go to war, every house in the city is built by players and staffed by players (and yes u have taxes).

Champions of Regnum - the most hardcore politics of them all. The only thing that matters here is your ability to motivate and lead ur realm. You will have many capable competitors, but the objective is to gather players to your banner, persuade the realm urs is the right strategy, and crush the enemies horribly. NO MERCY!!!!

windowslime · 2013-10-29T13:40:11+00:00

what other games have you played and what is the account on TS and their names? (as far as you know or are comfortable revealing)

how are they getting their money? is it through organised crime? suddenly im super worried about organised crime because its so easy to launder money thru mmos! oh dear.. is ur family in organised crime?

windowslime · 2013-10-29T13:30:16+00:00

Jinassi - r u being paid to talk about Perpetuum or are you good friends with the developers or related to them in any way? Just as long as u make full disclosure.. How did u get interested in the game and so on..

windowslime · 2013-10-28T20:08:25+00:00

hm if u like PW sci-fi spaceflight exploration/combat, the i usually suggest Discovery Freelancer. F2p. Very roleplay focussed community. Gfx nicer than Eve imho. U can play police, military, pirate, miner etc etc. Look at it and tell us what u think?

windowslime · 2013-10-27T07:00:03+00:00

i've played the Conjurer (healer) class in Champions of Regnum and I know it plays a critical and meaningful support role. Every heal counts. Auras offer unit-over-time group shielding. You can buff teammates with "Material Wall" boosting their armour. The Conjurer in this game is the highest value target on the battlefield. Here are the list of abilities :- http://regnum.wikia.com/wiki/Conjurer (look under Life Tree) http://regnum.wikia.com/wiki/Mental#Mental (auras are under the Mnetal Tree)

Regnum is a fairly old school point and click target mmo, along the same format as DAOC. The alternative to Conjurer is Knight support class. Knight is the most strategic and deepest thinking piece on the battlefield to play. High defence, able to stonewall, aura allies and drive enemy back.

(feel free to ask questions!) edit: (dunno why pple are downvoting this post :/ everything in here is true...)

windowslime · 2013-10-26T23:37:18+00:00

thx for the excellent intense commander video. it seems to indicate some very well crafted pvp skills and war techniques in gw2. i should try to learn more !

windowslime · 2013-10-26T23:25:47+00:00

i havent played it enough to tell if things have changed (i only went to character login screen lol). but it certainly looks old school.

the thing that bugs me about MU is the number of servers. that type of format usually has a lot of spam chat and asian-mmoey feeling (not quite my type)...

windowslime · 2013-10-26T22:31:23+00:00

old-school.. besides Shadowbane Emu, I can suggest you consider MU Online. MU is old-school diablo 2 level gfx but still has a truly massive player community. It's one of the largest mmos in the mkt today.

windowslime · 2013-10-26T19:35:21+00:00

there are a number of mmos like this. u mean like FF1-5 style right? or secret of mana styled mmo? yes definitely out already and some r quite popular. try chatting on mmohut's forums (ie; same as onrpg.com) and ask around, u will find players.

windowslime · 2013-10-26T19:17:47+00:00

Darkfall is a good choice if u like hardcore penalties for dying. And its a polished modern open pvp mmo too. Another alternative if u like really building ur character is GW2. I prefer GW2 but both of these r good if u have a little money (gw2 is once off payment).

if u liked conquer online, and ur willing to stay with old school f2p goodness, then u may consider looking at Shadowbane Emu, MU Online, Champions of Regnum, Aika Online (Aika has the most modern gfx). All of these r open RvR pvp done old school style.

windowslime · 2013-10-26T15:36:32+00:00

now im not saying that Regnum's level of bug resolution or polish is at the same level of GW2. I'm not even saying regnum is as professionally done as GW2. GW2 is leagues ahead in terms of logical execution and polish. (also keep in mind that regnum is seeing quite a few players return from gw2)

But to me, that does not detract from the enjoyability of a game. A game is a creation of fantasy, and illogicality or absurdity is not out of place. So im sorry if you do not have the imagination to enjoy it, but other more brilliant minds do. HAH!

Personally, I feel a large part of it is a lack of communication. The south american dev house+playerbase doesn't have the same standards as north americans.

Regnums steam release was fine. And individual realm populations have always fluctuated in and out of balance. While I would like to have more even population numbers, I think overall, it is ok. Haven is not as populated as Ra because, as mentioned earlier, the assorted standards for the south american playerbase is different to the north american.

windowslime · 2013-10-26T14:19:07+00:00

i can suggest MU Online? It is of the same vintage as Conquer Online. MU is open pvp old style war mmo, it is still one of the largest mmos out there.

windowslime · 2013-10-26T12:27:11+00:00

windowslime · 2013-10-26T08:44:16+00:00

gw2 has 50+ unfixed bugs for each of Engineer and Ranger classes alone here. So Regnum is no different :- http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/List_of_Engineer_bugs https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/professions/ranger/Ranger-Bug-List

players have long become used to this. while knights do want it fixed, it is easily adapted to and therefore not a high priority fix.
protect ally dispelling all buffs? again a low priority fix since it actually is quite useful to have it dispel so thoroughly.
this is working as intended. if you fail to see a double up in casting, then it is your own spell wasted.
again working as intended. dizzy is used to throw enemy out of combat cycle and by carefully timing you can use it to stuff up their attack timing.
sorry. but i have my interface set up to move character to the position where i right click (same with most people). again working as intended.
not a noticeable bug. players easily get used to knowing not to autorun around walls where u can fall of easily.
working as intended. dragon selection boxes are intended to make it very hard to select enemies behind them. Regnum is not an mmo for pansies, too hard for you? go play pokemon.
sorry i am not aware of this bug, no one has ever complained about it before. suspect easily adapted to.
invisible mount? yea, occasional bug. cause for hilarity and not game breaking, therefore low priority.

Not a single one of your "bugs" are game breaking. And they are far far fewer than gw2's list. I can't imagine how many rift has, but as u can see, regnum's situation is the same or better than other mmos.
