    Post Lets fill up the "Rakion" community shall we?

    I just got back into Rakion, i was like wtf when i came in. Why is the population so small in the USA server?. seriously?. This game is great, why don't more people play it?. Here check it out. My ingame name is Legacy57, see you online.



    Game Info:

    Rakion is a 3d fantasy MMO with a third person camera view. Rakion supports a lobby where players host or join rooms. Choose one of five classes and battle it out with other players to earn experience & gold to purchase new gear.

    Rakion was released late in 2005 and is a relatively small game. (359mb) Rakion plays like a MMO shooter but with a fantasy theme. The game style can best be compared to GunZ: The Duel. Both games have third person views and a lobby where players host or join rooms. Players can communicate through the lobby or in game chat and form competitive clans.

    The game is good, it's just that I can't connect to every single room, and I don't want to waste my time trying to get into a room or get my own room filled up.

    If someones ping is higher then yours you'll be kicked from the room, one good reason not to play.

    Eh. I'm emptied out on this game.
    Golem wars seem to be full of smiths and range mages, and that's practically the only way to get any decent cash flow. Deathmatches are great, but with the struggle to enter a room coupled with the slow leveling and non intelligent room masters..

    Like I said. It's on E for me.

    Ahh, too many memories from this game. It's the most memorable game I'm played. It goes FAR more in-depth than 90% of it's players realized and had a higher-up close knit and competitive community that my guild was the very top of. We pioneered all the major techniques and formed the Rakion League and were undefeated untill the end.

    But holy shit, some of my guild members popped HUNDREDS of dollars into this game and I myself close to a hundred. It sure knew how to eat your money, dear god.

    I've played Rakion, but it's only okay as a TPS. More like a fuster cluck of people spamming their skills. If you like TPS... I'd suggest trying Savage 2.

    Rakion is a wasted chance. No question about it.

    Here is why Rakion doomed itself:


    1)No character customization. What the hell where they thinking? That people wanna look like clones of each other? freaking idiots. This is also why I am not very interested in 2 Moons/Dekaron or Diablo 3. I don't give a shit about my character(s) if they look like everyone elses. Yeah, bla bla bla, they will get covered in gear from head to toe. I still don't care. I want facial features, like skin color, hairstyle and face. It's mandatory.

    2)Stupid website, registration and lobby. Perfect example of how not to split up populations, with bad UIs game browsers and lobbys. Idiocy, and frustration imminent, even from before you start playing. Horrid.

    3)Bad exposure. The website, URL and information from the dev all give a bad taste in ones mouth. Overall, bad presentation.


    It's all such a shame, since the Animations in this game is actually really good. It could go for a decent Playstation 2 co-op game, if they had focused their efforts a long time ago.

    Rakion is not a good game from once it was when it was released

    Reasons why i dont play:

    CON's of the game is mostly sided with p2p players

    theres also the lag into the factor and the community is NOT at all friendly to new comers

    i can also tell you straight up that this game is not hard to hack into either.

    the GM's in this game also seem to not care much of their users

    if you have noticed already if you played, this game uses A LOT of recycling.
    [ex. Lets change the monster from Silver, Grey, Black, White, Pure White, or Red.]

    Not much has changed from when it was released, i think Rakion was released 2005? now its near 2009 all this game has to show is 2 new boss levels and 2 new monsters.. yay. dosent really hype anything as no one really quests. ...

    EDIT: oh, and they added more P2P armor/weapons.. YES! more ways to tilt the balance for F2P users!
    HAHAHA!! HAVE YOU NOTICED THE CLAN SYSTEM DOSENT EVEN WORK STILL!? HILARIOUS!!

    this is not a real con but i like to throw that theres no customization at all :[

    Smile Hmm.....

    I don't think it was a nice Game.
    I have a few reasons though.

    1. It lags even with a nice PC. (I meant Cafes, not my PC)
    2. Hardly can't connect to the servers most of the time.
    3. Many players uses Hacks/Bots/Third-Party Software to play the Game.
    4. I don't like the Graphics.
    5. Controls are not my forte.
    6. It's old already.
    7. GMs are like; "Offline While Online". LMAO!
    8. It destroys your keyboard and mouse.
    9. I hate people saying "Noob" even if those people are not even Noob.
    10. I'm a member of OnRPG.com, and I love hating Games. :3

    Nioce.

    i will like to redirect to other tactical games such as:

    gunz
    s4 league
    manga fighter
    rumble fighter
    hell, sword of the new world
