Magic World Online

With several months of adventures in Magic World Online, players have been able to understand, and master the game’s innovative systems (the cozy video chat, the convenient botting system, and the vigorous growing weapon, etc.). Once again on August 15, a unique function so named as the Trivial System will open for Magic World adventurers!


I just won 1 Million in the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire last week; could that help me in “Magic World Online”? I am an educated Yale graduated with a PHD, and a master’s degree from Cambridge, but how is that going to help me? No need to worry or fret, because the magic power of knowledge is also MWO’s values!


In a couple of days, the Magic World Online Boy Genius will appear in Uptown to challenge you to his Trivia Test. If you can manage to burst his bubble by answering his questions in the shortest possible time, you will gain a considerable amount of experience points. It’s a prize for leveling up. (Prize size will be tailored to character level.)


The road to level 60 was fraught with bloody battles and grind! Now the road to level 60 can be made in a non-bloody way! Knowledge comes from experience and will finally serves for experience! Wefll see if you can own or even pone the Boy Genius?!


Additionally, high level players will see the opening of their long-anticipated new maps!
a) Dark Fortress: Deep in the remote untouched Magocean, there lies a lost fortress, where the howls and moans of unknown monsters conquer. Since the day it fell into the control of the dark power, the fortress land had been completely isolated and untouched. The only way to check out what’s behind the horrible howling is to make an unprecedented daring expedition into this devastating area!


b) Benthal Vestige: In the innermost of the sleepy Magocean abyss, there lies a beautiful Benthal Vestige, a happiness club for the noble Devils. But good heavens such a holy wonderland will finally get ruined by those sin makers some day! And we Magic World heroes shall never allow this!

Video Gamers Immortalized in Space by NCsoft

Sending digital time capsule with human DNA on Richard Garriott’s journey to International Space Station


AUSTIN, Texas, July 30, 2008—Could you be the savior of humankind?  NCsoft®, the world’s leading publisher and developer of online computer games, has announced it will launch the “Immortality Drive” – a time capsule with the digitized DNA of select video game players and space aficionados – into orbit when famed game designer Richard Garriott travels to the International Space Station in October 2008.
As part of NCsoft’s “Operation Immortality,” Richard Garriott – the man who created Tabula Rasa, a massively multiplayer online (MMO) PC game that explores the destruction of Earth – is now venturing into space to save humanity.

During the campaign, Tabula Rasa players have a chance to have their DNA sequenced, digitized and sent into space on the Immortality Drive. In addition, all players with active accounts on September 2, 2008 will have their Tabula Rasa characters uploaded to the device, giving them the opportunity to go to space virtually.  In order to make this unique opportunity accessible to as many people as possible, free trials of the game are available at http://www.rgtr.com/trial.  Garriott will place the Immortality Drive on the International Space Station when he travels there this fall.
“I’ve been able to do some very exciting things in the games business, but nothing of this magnitude,” said Garriott, executive producer for Tabula Rasa at NCsoft. “I’m thrilled we can offer the once in a lifetime chance to millions of gamers to virtually go to space with me. A select few will have their DNA digitized and sent. And, theoretically, if anything happens to the human race, it could be their DNA that is used to resurrect humanity.”
Starting today and lasting through August 31, 2008, anyone with a PC and an Internet connection can go to http://www.OperationImmortality.com and participate in weekly polls on humanity’s greatest achievements which will be included on the Immortality Drive, such as “What is the greatest song of all time?” and “What is the greatest technological breakthrough of all time?” Current Tabula Rasa players, or those who download and play the free trial, will also be able to enter a personal message for inclusion on the Drive.

“This is your chance to leave your mark,” says Garriott. “While everyone can participate in the polls at OperationImmortality.com, Tabula Rasa players will be the only gamers in the universe who can say that a piece of them is in space, since we’re sending their in-game alter-egos, and for some, their DNA, to space with me.”
Tabula Rasa, which launched November 2007, is an intense, fast-paced, sci-fi MMO PC game that puts you in the middle of the never-ending intergalactic fight for freedom against a hostile alien race called the Bane.  Players use high-tech weaponry, alien powers, and the help of other Allied Free Sentients (AFS) soldiers to rid the universe of the Bane threat. 

With frequent free updates to players, the game world of Tabula Rasa has grown significantly since launch. Upcoming features to the game include clan-owned Control Points, new missions, and Personal Armor Units.
 No purchase is necessary to participate in Operation Immortality, with free trials of Richard Garriott’s Tabula Rasa available at http://www.rgtr.com/trial.  The game is currently available at most major retailers and at the PlayNC® store. The retail box includes the first month of online game play. After the first month, players will be charged a monthly subscription fee of US$14.99. The game is rated Teen by the Entertainment Software Rating Board.

Wonderland Online: European Server Q&A

Wonderland Online (http://wl.igg.com/) will be launching a new European Server called “Virgo” on August 26th. The following is the Q&A about this server:

Q: Is the European game edition the same with the US one?
A: Yes. Our aim of releasing a European Server is to relieve the network delay when European players play the game. We will add a new option of European Server into the servers list. Thus, players can choose a server according to their needs.

Q: If I am American, can I log into the European Server?
A: We welcome players throughout the world to play Wonderland Online. All players are able to choose any server without any limitation. American players can choose an European Server and European players can choose an US server. However, we suggest that players choose the server which is close to their country avoiding the network delay.

Q: If I choose the European Server, does my former character in the US Server still exist?
A: Certainly. When you log into the US server again, you can use your former character.

Q: Can I transfer my character in the US Server to the European Server?
A: Currently, we don’t provide this service. If you want to play in the European Server, you should create a new character and play the game from the beginning.

Q: If I play in the European Server, are my Mall points in the US Server still available?
A: Your Mall points are connected with your IGG account. As long as you play the game with the same account, your points are available, no matter which server you are in.

Wonderland Online (http://wl.igg.com/), a new MMORPG from IGG (http://www.igg.com ), prides itself on its creative storylines and cute characters, and is set to take the industry by storm.

Eudemons Online Weekend Events

Four New Weekend Events Served Up Soon! 
 
Great news! More events coming soon and many at that! Specifically there will be 4 new events that you will be able to take part in. To commemorate the eternal battle against the enemy forces the queen has the following events planned: Fortune Mouse, Trolls Hunting, Seal Troll, and a Skyrocket event.

 

In the ‘Fortune Mouse’ event you will gather Fortune coins from an NPC and bring them to the greedy mice that just love them, of course. They will give you lottery chances so that you may win even more gold!

 

Throughout the duration of the ‘Troll Hunting’ event, any monster you kill has the possibility of causing a Troll to appear. We need you, acting as Troll Hunters, to go forth and suppress these creatures. You must kill as many Trolls as possible in order to rid the land of these vile beasts.

 

For the ‘Seal Troll’ event, you must buy a chest that obviously has a Troll sealed within. By killing the troll you receive experience, but be wary of where you release the Troll! Others can also kill the Troll before you; stealing the experience bonus!

 

The Skyrocket event will dazzle and amaze in exploding proportions, literally. During this event there will be two sizes of ‘Powder’ that you will combine with the skyrockets to fire them off. The small size will only give you experience while the big size will give those in the surrounding area (hopefully your friends) experience too.
