Īfter reading their forums, they've been on their last legs for awhile now. Hanging on to a sub that is overpriced for the game as it stands just won't last they are obviously heading for their last legs, "again". Should've been made F2P a long time ago, with small micro transactions on content that is actually in game/accessible even now (to the devs that is) Furthermore a trial is always free, kinda nullifies parts of that post they made too sadly. Its really poorly worded they'll have an influx of people expecting a full F2P game. Hey, I've plenty of extra hard-drive space so why not? That is the only thing I would even consider changing about Ryzom - well that and population but I'm of the opinion that if it were prettier (less dated! It's still damn purtee!) more folks would try it and stay.Īll that being said - I just created a free-trial account and I'm currently downloading it again. That would be sweet imo but I'm an eye-candy type person and the current graphics are a bit dated. Now then, if I had mad monies I'd gladly throw a bunch at the Devs to drop wtfever they are working on - re-build Ryzom's graphics from the ground up with one of the new Engines - and then re-release it. I don't see myself ever investing in a monthly fee to play this game again. I think this new (mostly) unlimited free-trial is a good thing but I think it's likely too late to save/revive this game - at least to a point of real profitability. Ryzom will forever hold a special place in my gaming heart. Bought it when it hit Gamestop in late '04. Missed the Open Beta by something like 2 days. I went on a search for MMOs at that time and found Ryzom. Well, I suppose my technical first was the 2 weeks of the WoW stress testing back in August 2004. Was my first true MMO (I don't count EQ as I didn't hang around long on that tbh).Īye, my first too. Other small changes you will discover by yourself. Mektoub mounts can now store 3 times as much. The visual quality of characters has been improved. A race where the stakes will shape the face of the Atys of tomorrow.Īn event in this sequence will be held on 14 March at 00:00 GMT.
More than ever, your actions have an impact on the future of the bark.īut beware, any victory is deserved! To save the camp you choose, you must do better than others, but also do it faster! Because it is a race against time that just started. This sequence will provide large-scale interactions between the homin peoples of Atys. These are just some questions that you will be faced with in the coming weeks. Will they succeed to restore him to health and to restore him to power in the Desert? Dare the Matis take advantage of this temporary weakening of their old enemy? And how will the people of the late Governor Still Wyler enter into the balance? New Roleplay Event Sequence "Tears of the Emperor"ĭexton, Emperor of the Burning Desert, is gravely ill and the Fyros are working with the Zoraïs to save him. If you want a sneak preview of this new marauder, log in on Wednesday, 9 March at 00:00 GMT. Although his camp has not yet been discovered, it is rumored that Pei-Ruz the Rotten wants you to experience the most terrible suffering. After Dante the Teaser, a new enemy makes his appearance. The Marauders' thirst for vengeance continues to grow. New Zoraï enemy to fight: "Pei-Ruz the Rotten" Thank you for the confidence you have in us. The second limitation is storage: you cannot own any mektoub packers, use the inventory of your apartment or take any items from a guild hall.ĭespite the freedom of this new system, we would like to remind you that Ryzom can only live on through your paid subscriptions. When you reach level 125 in a skill you can still continue playing, but you will gain no more experience points. Instead, free trial accounts are now limited to a maximum level of 125 in all different skills, enabling everyone to sample all aspects of Ryzom and to discover what makes this MMO unique. We are pleased to announce that from now on, players that create a new account can play Ryzom without time or place limits. On Wednesday, March 9 between 09:00 and 11:00 GMT, the servers will be brought down for the implementation of patch 1.11.0. What do you think, will this lead to (at least a small) increase in population? This was posted on the Ryzom forums today.
