2 Years playing Ryzom, a selection of screenshots

Noob question. Why are the beta screens so different than the current state of the game?

Because some things were changed between beta and the release of the game.

Well a lot has been done to the game since that time, Ryzom even used to have a class based system (end of 2003 before closed beta 2) just look at teaser 3 (http://www.ryzom.com/data/video/teaser3/Ryzom_Teaser03_WMV_high.avi).

The engine the devs made seems to be so modular that changes can be implemented very quickly (allthough it still has some limits - like sitting on a chair or riding a mount seems to be very difficult to implement - ), just look at the episode 2 events or the upcoming changes.

Oh and can I also add that I was using an old Geforce 2 gfx card in the early screens. All setting in the first few screens are turned down to a minimum.
