See if you can find someone to play it with. Seems like there are a couple of people interested on GAF that might be trying the Korean version out. If there's enough interest I can create a guild.

I'm interested! PM sent. ^^

just wanted to say that the performance of this game is phenomenal, by the way. i have ran the game on both old and new hardware with various settings, all the way to maximum, and it performs beautifully. it's obvious to me that the way the engine was written not only allows for the hands down best visuals i've ever seen in an MMO, but a very smooth and consistent framerate. the textures are crisp and detailed and everything supports a surprisingly high polygon count, all the way down to mobs, npcs, and environments. the animation is also a sight to behold and looks motion captured at times.

i'm not trying to sound like a shill with such lavish praise, i'm just amazed that i can finally say a korean MMO is a true winner and keep a straight face. i have not had this much fun with an online game since the days of PSO on dreamcast.

I'm most definitely interested in the Korean version. Is it Legal to play it ?

Either way, count me in if you're looking to start a guild, I'd also appreciate a PM.

I'm watching the stream and it looks phenomenal.

I'm curious, but how many characters on screen are we talking about here? And how old is old? List your old hardware so we have a clue.

No, only for the beta. And VPNs aren't difficult to use, just slow.

If you haven't received a PM let me know. There were a lot of requests to respond to.

The actual guild will be made in-game soon.

I saw some Korean open beta client links that are on those file sites (fileserve, filesonic, etc.)

I wonder how useful they are.

There's a warning not to speak any language except Korean in-game lol. Hope there is team/guild chat.

Hmm I did a google search for the site and there are some complaints about it. Doesn't look too bad and it's just a $10-20 gamble with a chance of a great reward... hmm! And you can use Paypal and not give your CC info and such.

Thats the rule for this stuff, same applies to Monster Hunter: Frontier and the DragonBall MMO.

I'm debating if I want to go through with this or not. I'm on the fence when earlier today that I was going to take a break from MMOs till ToR came out. But this game looks really good.

So buy the game, pay for a membership then play the game in korean?

Well Koreans dont do retail boxes so its more like, pay $10 for an account and then play-time. Also there are English patches people use for stuff like this.

Exactly. Funny how people are anti-piracy, but they don't mind buying stolen MMO accounts.

They aren't stolen. People sell their SSNs for use with the site. In any case, it seems like you guys bought everything at the site I was sending out. I'll try to find another place, asking around now.
Click to expand...

My bad, only the "Premium" accounts where sold out (according to Customer Service), the "Verfied" accounts are still available.

From what I understood, "Verified" accounts need to be "re-enabled" if they get "locked"... Which means paying. That's all I understood from customer service.

And they wouldn't budge regarding the phone policy...

Ooohhh, that. No, basically the Premium thing is for actual Koreans who are under 18. The game is 18+ so you need an adult SSN to activate the account.

That's what that is.

in the FAQ on the page, it says "sometimes people steal back the account, but it only happens rarely" that makes me think that the accounts are not legitimately purchased.

That's a much more likely scenario than someone selling their SSN to a company to create game accounts for sale. Under what circumstances would someone sell their "identity" to a RMT vendor so that the accounts could be re-sold?

That just doesn't make sense to me.

Keep the screenshots rolling in, though!

Ah, that explains it, thanks.

Customer Service sure didn't.... explain it... properly :)

Each SSN can have three accounts attached to it. It's fairly common to sell the use of your SSN, as they don't mean anywhere near as much to them as they do to us (it's actually possible to generate a KSNN with a program). They are most likely not talking about Hangame accounts, as they're free to create. There's no reason to steal something that's free.
