Another newbie

[canis74]

I have played them all, from MUDs, UO to DAoC,SWG, EQ2 and WoW.

I like PvP with a purpose, but no game except DAoC (and UO, but that was in a different time), has lived up to my expectations.

WoW has only smoothness of the controls. The way you control your character in WoW is fantastic - but the rest of the game is boring and especially PvP.

I just saw a post on a random board and decided to look ryzom up. A game I had only head about and I presumed it had failed like I feel Horizons did. But when I get here and check the game out.

I was shocked to be honest after reading the stuff in development and in testing. The R2 is... an incredible idea. The tower fights sound great. The skill system sounds nice. The open system of SWG was the only reason I liked it... but well, that is no more.

I just wanted to say hi while waiting for the download to finish.

I have a question too of course. Since there are no classes I am wondering if it is possible to combine skills to create a sort of stealthy ranged fighter (scout of albion of DAoC)?

Sorry, no stealth in SoR. Wouldn't help a lot in PvP anyway as all players have radar.

There is sneaking, but it's a PvE skill and a player rather than a character skill.
