un-registered guy, you're just a [edited for profanity - but it was funny - Satchi] Moron.
A guy want to play this game and ask a question, and you start trolling.
Thanks everyone for answering my question, but i think i'll wait for Wolrd of warcraft, as i've read oher topics and this community doesn't seems to be any better than FF XI's (thanks to all thoses un-registered cowards who hides and cannot express their opinions under a name).
Brats shouldn't be allowed to play online games. I'm ready to pay a high fee just to be rid of them in MMORPG.

There will always be trolls and they usually post because they haven't got the game and don't know the wonderful community that is within it. From experience I can tell you that there is plenty playing Ryzom and all of them are ready and willing to help and group up with you.

rihzawdog i think this game is perfect for you because it has a very relaxing atmosphere and is easy and fun to play. Nobody will call you noob because this game in not about powerleveling but more about exploring and developing your character I think that is what Shazzy meant when she said that this game has a wonderful community. You are always welcome in a group and you can play by yourself as well, you won't have to spend hours lookng for a team and then sticking to that team for hours when u r tired just because u won't be able to find another one later on. I just want to say that whatever you decide you are always welcome among us

I have to agree with you there p46985 - the majority of registered players are really cool. There is a poll elsewhere in the forums which asks the age of the people playing Ryzom, and the majority are in their mid- to late- twenties and early thirties. I think this accounts for the chilled-out atmosphere ingame and the abundance of helpful players.

I fully support the decision to close the main forums off to unregistered players, but once registered you will find yourself amongst serious players who want nothing to do with trolls such as the guy who says "This game is about soloing since it will prolly be you alone in the NA server" (erm...ok, thanks for the insider knowledge. Now can you tell me when Patch 1 will be going live? Thanks, I appreciate it ) and the other, probably related, troll who says "to tell you the truth, i can understand the ignorant attitude from people like you, as a lot of people including myself have access to this game via freinds or other means" (right...so you've had time to immerse yourself fully in this amazing game? Wish I had a friend who bought the game and allowed me this level of access to his pc. Does he have any time to play himself I wonder?)

Shazzy, Raynes and p46985 are very active on these forums. They are registered players who have full access to the main forums, but they're always happy and willing to come to the guest area and share their views and opinions. They don't need to do this, but I guess they, like me, want to see a more balanced representation of the game.

Fanboi, moi? Nope, a girlie actually, and it upsets me to see this fantastic game slated by Unregistered and uninformed trolls. I would hate for their opinions to carry any weight with someone coming here with a view to learning more about Ryzom before committing to buy it.

I for one can assure any new players of a really warm welcome, a customer service second to none and a development team committed to listening to its players and acting on their wishes to produce an incredibly rounded and fulfilling game.

Good luck rihzawdog with whichever game you decide to go with

Love from Euginie

Ty for kind words Andreaw The reason why registered players are coming to the questions area is obvious - people want more players for their favourite game. Its a good thing that WoW and EQ2 are coming out soon, the sooner they get to the market the sooner people will start leaving these games and joining Ryzom. I bet the majority of players want to try either one of these games before buying Ryzom.

I'm 24 years old and i love Ryzom's gameplay and community. I think there was an interview with Nevrax where they said that they are aiming at a different, 'mature' playerbase, different from WoW and EQ2, i think that is a correct strategy

Ok - I can answer that!!!

Only because you asked so... nicely.

I would reccommend you ignore the Registered users. If they are paying for this crap then they are definitly die-hard fans and have their head too far in the ground to say anything negative.

This game is pretty much One Huge Grind. You gain exp by killing things or crafting or harvesting. There's nothing to do that does not involve boreing repetious grinding up to level 250* 10 or 20 or so.

You must have played it if you know so well what is involved and how it plays which makes you a registered user and by your own admissions no one should listen to you!

Just teasing!

Got news for you though just incase you didn't know. I have never played a single mmorpg that you haven't had to grind in some way or form. That is part of what the game is about, if it wasn't you would be the highest level in no time and be bored because you had finished the game.
Take daoc for example. The end game is RvR yet everyone grinds to level up their clothes and weapons and to get money to pay for various needs.
There will always be grinding in the mmorpg world. If you don't like it then you are playing the wrong games for you.

[p46985]

The good game will make you enjoy grinding and therefore grinding in this game will be called 'logical progression'. Ryzom is such a game. I will never be able to become a fanboy no matter how hard i blow
