Finally got the game!

[taishizi]

Yay! The game finally arrived today!

Some of you I've met online might know that I ordered the game from US so the game is US version. It comes in a minibox with 52 page manual and cds in paper sleeves. The box is really cool but I was a little disappointed at the paper sleeves I would have thought they'd package them in jewel case

[kibsword]

yay wd

I got a German pre-order edition so the manual is useless for kibs

[lazarus]

I have a manual in French and one in German

(Yes I pre-ordered 2 copies, one of which is still sealed with its pre-order code)

Anyway, welcome to the game Taishizi. I think you've found a good time to join as things are starting to get interesting now with the imminent arrival of the Encyclopedia

[taishizi]

The European copies come with DVD box, right? Or so I recall.

What do you get with pre-order key?

What do you get with pre-order key?

Heh heh

Go on, tell him!

[kibsword]

Um u get a fancy armulet shield with 0 hp and the lowest stats ever

Also a higher chance of getting into ATS as I recall

[taishizi]

what's ATS?

[dazman76]

"All Terrain Simulator"... er, no...

ah, "Advanced Test Server"

It's a server Nevrax set up for, er, testing patches and new features before they go live. It's had a mixed reception from the community so far though, mainly due to bugs highlighted on the ATS finding their way into release patches.

To use the ATS, you'll need to apply for registration: http://www.ryzom.com/?page=ats

EDIT: Incorrect BBCode for the link! doh

Ah, Yes I know about it. I didn't realize the abbrevation though
