Title: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: UnSub on September 02, 2009, 02:13:06 AM Codemasters can't get an agreement signed on Archlord, so US and European servers are coming down 1 October 2009. (http://www.archlordgame.com/news.php?id=9957&articletype=News)
Apparently you can't make any new accounts in-game, so... there, I guess. Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: Margalis on September 02, 2009, 02:32:59 AM True story: I tried the beta and within two minutes of starting my character was stuck on a roof with no way to get down.

I think I had the exact same thing happen to me. Awesome. Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: Tarami on September 02, 2009, 04:16:47 AM This is what I know about ArchLord, from a couple years back:
Friend: You know that new MMO, ArchLord? Me: Yeah? Friend: It's shit. Me: Alright. Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: Falconeer on September 02, 2009, 04:29:15 AM It says in the Codemasters newsletter that Webzen is going to pick it up and run it. It doesn't say if you'll be able to keep your characters (I strongly doubt it).
Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: Draegan on September 02, 2009, 07:30:13 AM I once met a group of people who said they had a guild in Archlord.
I laughed. They were serious. Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: Falconeer on September 02, 2009, 07:47:43 AM Enter DLRiley mocking you for laughing at Archlord while buying Aion.

No probably not, he only likes SWTOR and Dust news. So he won't ever click on this thread. Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?"

Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: chargerrich on September 02, 2009, 08:26:23 AM My single most embarassing purchase ever... was in a local EB looking at used games and my son brought me the box with its glossy pictures and character models and me like a sucker payed $29.99 for the damn thing... To my credit I realized my mistake shortly thereafter and never installed it, but also never took it back.
Damn you procrastination! :grin: Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: ghost on September 02, 2009, 08:32:16 AM I think I bought this at one point. Never installed it. I win, apparently.
Title: Re: Archlord to close in the west; people go "Who?" Post by: gryeyes on September 03, 2009, 09:47:15 PM Horrible game, they had an event where the first "archlord" received a suit of armor. After 12 months the person hadn't received the goods and any thread mentioning it was quickly deleted. Im not sure he ever got it.
