    Didn't play cbt myself but pvp looks decent I guess.

    Yeah netgames website are a bit buggy at times.. Maybe try another browser or clear your cache if you haven't tried already.

    @Golden nope the prizes can be sent anywhere around the world.. Some people already won prizes from the cbt other than in the US.

    And yeah pvp seems pretty fun.. Protip make a wind rogue they are seriously OP in pvp lol.

    Make sure you roll a bow ranger. Cause they're completely OP in PvP. Not a game I would take seriously. But its a pvp game thats simplistic and works.

    everyone thinks archers are op but they all think this because of the guild primal instinct who found a way to make a lot of $ fast and they did this and ended up upgrading all their shit higher than everyone else and they all did pvp together. This meant the whole group of them would focus on specific people thus killing them instantly. Pretty soon people will found out there are plenty of other classes that dominate.

    Ironically, this isn't the first time I've heard of this. Those that say someone is OP haven't done much else than possibly leveled, grind, went into the wars and just fought to only lose to someone who've put in some time leveling and crafting material to enhance their characters stats.

    The game doesn't seem grotesque, so it's worth the shot.

    Game seems like a mix of a bunch of popular games with a basic, generic twist. Graphics are poor, but relatively smooth. The engine itself is NOT smooth itself.. Movement is VERY clunky.. There is a lot of PVP emphasis in the game, but I'm not personally sure how good it is since I wasn't interested enough to participate in the 2nd CBT.

    Been trying to download the game for 2 days now, but every time I leave it unattended the launcher crashes saying something about FILE NOT FOUND.

    ;_;

    From what I've seen from Aion it's alot of kiting and running around but in rode it's alot more heads on where whoever gets the first stun or hit will most likely win.

    Aion is a much more superior game tho.. You can tell rode is a semi rip-off of Aion and some other games.

    I think rode will struggle alot.. It's too much alike other games and really isn't anything new or special.

    I agree.. It's a combination of many games I know of all put into one, with a poor movement system (clunky) and a mediocre graphic style. It is a good concept, but they really should have done something out of the ordinary with it. :X

    I am SHOCKED and APPALLED by the amount of people who can actually play this game with the way the movement is. Maybe it's worse for some people and better for others or something? I have a very top of the line CPU, tried all the fixes, made a mage (apparently it's worse for halflings, for some reason, but I wanted a mage), and the movement feels like chess.

    Like, you press W, and your character skips ahead X units and then stalls there animating the run for the duration of time it would take to cover those units. It does this is small increments of maybe 1-2 character lengths if you hold W, so you feel like you're moving a chess piece.

    It's not just clunky, it's not just bad, it is THE WORST movement I've seen in a game -ever-, hands down. If you remember Ultima Online, sometimes if your ping spiked, your character would move in little hops/jumps, that's how it feels.


    IMMEDIATELY uninstalled. NA Aion is going F2P any time now, and has an event that's free 'till 40 and a set of level 50 armor if you spend money on a month of time. Why not play a real, fully developed game like Aion, instead of a clear lazy attempt at a clone?
