RYZOM END GAME??

[petej]

Theres no End-Game because the game doesnt end but evolve and open up new lvls....

For SoR, I have several planets in mind, plus a space dimension. The space dimension could be compared to a mix of Harlock (anime with space pirates fighting imperial fleets for the future of mankind), Cowboy Bebop (anime about mercenaries) and the Stargate TV series. Today, we have less than 5 % of Atys open for exploration (okay, that’s a bit frustrating, but it’s also exciting for the future, don’t you think?). What you as the Homin civilizations are, in fact, is just a small portion of the true Homin presence on Atys. The past Homin Nations were wider. As an example, I’ll just say that there are the Dark Matis and the Fyros Nomads who follow the herds of huge elephant like creatures which carry the Fyros villages carved in their shell.

...hopefully we'll get 250+ regions on Atys *soon*

This game will have pvp endgame first, it is called outposts and it is in final stages of development. Nevrax gives updates about progess quite often. I haven't heard any plans for raiding endgame other than trough Ryzom Ring.

EQ has many years worth of expansion packs in it, so there is much more high level content than in Ryzom currently.

I would say that acquiring uber kitin larva from kitin nests is closest to high level raid content in this game as it gets. Its pretty challenging even for big max level teams. Another similar thing is attacking bandit boss fortresses for uberloot armors.

Also, there is "quests" for gaining access to new areas. These new areas are not higher level areas than those you had before and getting to new areas is usually done much before need for endgame

Just wanted to say that game gives settings for some nice quests but you have to make those quests yourself and not get them trough npc. E.g. You might want to get supreme q250 kitin larva heavy armor, that is a quest involving quite many steps

If that sounded arrogant or otherwise stupid, I apologize as I agree there should be much more good quality quest type content in this game.

Being purposefully dense is kinda silly. I'm sure the concept may not make sense to you being more into RP than leveling (trust me, I understand how that can be more appealing), but to act as the concept never occurred to you before is a wee bit.. arrogant? Particularly since "level and beat the game" is the foundation that most games are built upon. I'm not trying to take shots here.. just kinda struck by the statement.

No, that's the point that one player and non RP computer games are based on. It isn't, and shouldn't be, the model for MMORPGs.

Phaedrea will marry you if you level all your levels to 250, and Basic will be your personal slave, is what I heard

(jokin)

Jokin aside, one of the main intention of the game was to provide regular server wide events that involve RAID engine, player-driven story evolvement, and Outposts.

Nevrax is batting 1.5 out of 3 atm. 0.5 for each of the 3 things I mentioned.

RAID engine event, when it did work, was awesome and quite involving, and provide a "purpose" for training your skills. It is currently bugged and being ironed out.

Player-driven story got off at a pretty linear, shallow, and non-involving start, like a prologue to a book, but it's picking up speed.

Outposts, in testing.

But there's no reason why Nevrax can't bat 3/3 by year end. It's very likely they can achieve this, imo, by the year anniversary of the launch. For if they don't, they will implode due to lack of progress.

So chin up and enjoy the foundation and 0.5s that are here, they are certaintly better & more interesting that a lot of the 1.0 out there.

p.s. I also heard that you will get a Kami doll and Jyudas will be your personal boy toy

Well thanks for the info guys, i see now that i made a huge mistake in titleing the post END GAME, as many of you have gotten caught up with these two words in spite of the real meaning of the question in my post. if you ignore these two insignificant words and look at the meaning behind the question, im looking for goals to strive towards at the top level of the game, not looking to beat the game etc. get over it guys

But from the posts it seems that there is no real goal to strive towards at the higher end, other then generally being more powerful and being able to kill more powerful stuff.

Ive only participated in one event which was recently, the pvp event in trench of trials, which was absolutely horribly organised, the sides were totally uneven, at least 5 to 1, and the gm's didnt take the initiative to balance the sides at all, so it ended up being a farce imo.

IMO leveling simply to kill higher stuff to level to kill higher stuff etc etc etc, should only be a small part of any mmog, and ive played a LOT of mmog's. Personally i need higher and loftier goals to retain my interest, but thats just me. Now im not saying there isnt a lot of fun in roleplaying and looking cool and being a part of a guild etc, but i need more from a game im paying good money for. And i will admit the community on Ryzom is one of the best ive seen, theres a lot of generous, cool people playing this game who are willing to give up time to help out noobs, and thats a rare thing indeed.

Again thanks for the feedback, i appreciate it , but try to ignore the words END GAME, lol.

"Ive only participated in one event which was recently, the pvp event in trench of trials, which was absolutely horribly organised, the sides were totally uneven, at least 5 to 1, and the gm's didnt take the initiative to balance the sides at all, so it ended up being a farce imo."

If you feel the sides are uneven, work to strengthen your faction or to get more people to do these things.

From what I can gather there wasn't as much interest in the last PvP event as there was in the one that there was as part of the Guild of Elias events. In that one IIRC the sides were different the other way around, so it's swings and roundabouts

Here's a few options...

1 - Forget about the mechanics and roleplay.
2 - Strengthen your guild.
3 - Strengthen your faction.
4 - Assist lower level players in your race/guild/faction
5 - Work towards (and later work on) your outpost etc.
6 - Explore - everywhere!
7 - Collect the set of boss mobs slain.
8 - Get every working TP ticket in the game
9 - Level your other skills.
10 - Run regular escorts and patrols between lands.
11 - Hire out your services to protect diggers etc.

lol youre right i did get caught on those two words and mmatto (damn him ) i believe gave the truest answer to your question . As you can see from the replies theres alot of people with passion for what they believe this game is/should be (god help Nevrax) , theres just so much potential (yet to be fullfilled)...

Good luck on getting the game you want to play

*Goes off to employ people to level Neun 24/7*

Both the above are valid and very good reasons to go for 250 lvl in all skills!
