New! Sadly....

Post by k0d33 »

SADLY I don't have too many great and ZOMG questions, as I love browsing information and have found information.... But I would like to introduce myself, and say hello!

A Warning first and foremost. Depending on Ryzom... I might not stay. =/ I'm a fickle gamer. If I don't enjoy something, I leave. I can't even play WoW Consistently because it's.... flawed. However, Ryzom has pleased me a bit at a cursory glance. So if you fall in love with me(Haha... >.> ;) Don't be surprised if I just up and vanish one day. =/ I do it. Infact, after this, I'm probably gonna go cancel my WoW and remove a whole **** of games.... Anyway... You'll probably see me as a Zorai Karavaner, named Kanez or Ardas, depending on my Gender I choose in game. (That was one of my main questions. ;) If Races could go any faction. Thanks for the stickeh Sprite.) Ardas would be a female, and Kanez(Or Arrikanez) would be a male. Now a few... odd questions.


As we all know, being cultured people of MMOs, alot of people are... "OOC" or Out of Character most of the time, and use net speak... I look for the exact opposite. I'm looking for a group, or set of groups, of various people, willing to Roleplay. Do you exist? If so, step forward!

Also alot of people ask about emotes. /wave, /moo, /dance, et cetera. But does SoR have a command to make your own emotes? A requirement for roleplay.

Now, It may quickly appear that I've made myself out to be some elitist ass... For that, I apologize. I'm really not. I'm really really... lax. I'm a jokester at heart, and love making people laugh.

Oh, Also...

What's the level of Tech? I mean... I see the Karavaner's and my heart swells with hope that it will be an epic clash of Modernization and Medieval, battling Mech Opponents and pulling out my Epic-glowbullet-boomstick and such like. Are the Homins bound to their medieval stupidity?

Bah! I can't keep myself to a single post.

What about the Trial is... Trial-y? Unlimited play dashed any belief I had to it being a real trial. What's the difference between Us Cheapos, and you people who pay to play?

Plenty of role-players about, but which server are you on? I run The Blackwater Buccaneers on Cho, if that is any help, though the other three (older) servers have a lot more established RP going on.

No, we can't do that. The premade emotes are...interesting, but often produce bad text (e.g. I use disillusioned on bob. I see "You disillusioned bob.". I cringe.). You also bow when you "wave", so they do seem to have been a rush-job. You are stuck with "Fred says: *rolls his eyes*" I'm afraid!

The tech level - well, the only real tech we have is guns: we have pistols, rifles, hand crossbows (bowpistols), crossbows (bowrifles), bazookas (launchers) and machine guns (launchers). I've also put my name down for a Karavan flying saucer licence, but they haven't gotten back to me (and sadly, never will).

You can't leave the Ruins of Silan (the "Island") and some skills are locked out, even if you can get the requisite level (e.g. the whole Ranged combat skill tree). You can easily get skills up to about level 40...maybe to 60 if you like a slow grind (the content on the island is what is limiting you there). You aren't time limited or level limited, but as I said, you can't leave the island to get to the mainland which is where all the joy is.

on the emotes... i saw something somewhere that they are working on making a /em command for emotes so you can create your own. It sounded pretty cool and hopefully they patch it in game soon :)

Check the guild list within your server's guild forum. :) RP guilds are noted.

Coming soon. It's on the ATS (Advance Test Server) right now.

Alas, as quickly as I said my Hello Hellos, I offer my sweet, apologetic goodbyes.

I installed, made a character, went through the loading page, and.... DISAPPOINTMENT!

The character making was... Awesome, to say the very least. Loading Screens... Took longer than WoW. Lag IG.... Worse than WoW. If anything can be worse than WoW, it's not for me.
