I dunno, I am kind of interested in bringing down a row of archers sitting on a wooden platform. From the articles I have been reading, seems the combat is twitchy.

As for the player models, I would not go by the videos really:


That's wierd, if you read the Korean it sounds like Ark/Arc not Arche.

Beside the two big projects (GW 2 and TOR), this is the MMOG I'm looking forward the most
From what I hear about Arche Age, North American localization and distribution is not not active and could be years away. I think the same is true anywhere outside Asia.

New interview with Jake Song over at Massively.com (various topics covered):

How many "sandbox features" will be cut at launch? :P

A long (8m 14s), in-game trailer showing various game features, like sieges, naval combat, labor, destroyable environments and more.

Oh hey, it now looks like a Korean made Final Fantasy game, complete with Pirates of the Carribean movie knockoffs!

I like the idea of it, but like all early MMO footage, it shows kind of an ideal version of the game if people play in the spirit the game is intended.  Add in a few thousand actually people and things are going to change pretty quickly.

I'd also dissent on the inevitable "what good art!" comments. At this point every single Asian made MMO looks exactly the same. Same lighting, same backdrops, same character models, same hair and clothing, everything.

Man, every time those people fight some mythical beastie shows up. you'd think they'd just learn to chill out by now.

Anyways, I think it looks rather neat. The idea of planting crops and having them grow, knocking down trees etc make the environment appear very interactive.

Note to Korea: a girl that looks like a malnourished sub-Saharan child is not, in fact, attractive.

I find it curious that this was released for a major Korean trade show with such obvious bugs on display (ex: half the arrow flights in the siege freeze in midair before hitting the ground).

Nothing in this post represents the views of my current or previous employers.

There are also the random holes in the ships that show up (not cannon ball holes, just shit like seeing the inside of a cabin randomly).

Eh, I'd rather know it's unfinished then be shown 1/100th of the game that they've finely polished.

Tortage anyone?

The most important question is: Betty or Veronica?

Personally I favor Veronica.  Not because she's rich, because she's hot.

(yes, I know this has been discussed before.  It's Arche Age, not Archie Age.  Every time I see the tread title that question pops back into my head and I want that to stop, so now I'm dishing it off onto all of you! HA!)

Looks like the english website is undergoing some revamp. Umm, once you click to access one of the sections, the layout becomes somewhat...."questionable"; I guess the web team was drunk.

http://www.archeage.com/en/contents/gameIntros

Still, no new info, really. I noticed they added one more race, called "Ferres", and there is also an entire new area dedicated to "ability" (good luck trying to understand something by looking at the layout :P)

I really like their setting and style.  I've got my eye on this one, with no expectations.  Just interested to see how it transforms.

Is it too much to hope that this game won't have either horrible grinds or a stupid cash shop attached?  yea...it probably is.

I would love this to pan out, but I can't expect it to.

There was only one brief glimpse at the UI and someone playing, which hotbars and all.

Is there any info on how you play this game?  Leveling?  Questing? Just exploring and killing shit?  Is there levels and classes?

Just curious.  Looks cool, but it's Asian.

Funny how little things like that rope climbing have quite an impact when you see them.   If the airship isn't pilotable someone needs a kick in the nuts.   Also WTF rabbit eared kanagroo mounts.

I read this thread as Archie Age, and now I'm disappointed I can't visit Riverdale online.

I did the same but never commented.  I figured nobody would recognize the reference.  You have restored my faith. 

I know this was said months ago, but I do not care. It's been happening to me every time I see it has new posts and driving me crazy.

Ships are fully craftable and seem to require others to sail. Its one of the more advanced ship systems I have seen outside of the Disney title. I am guessing that the airship is mass transit.

some actual mid-level gameplay
and more of the same, for the other faction i guess

although suspect it's either from some sort of event or a teaser of "endgame" possibilites and as such skips the soul-crushing resource gathering part...

Maybe because it's Asian, or because they player sucks, but it doesn't look as twitchy as most games are.  I.e. keyboard pounding to win the GCD.

It looks like a normal Korean grinder from that mid-level gameplay video. I shut it off after a few minutes. It made me not interested in the game.

I like how the guy knew exactly where to stand when the bridge blew up.
