    Default Silkroad here I go again...

    Well now that I have found a game that I like which is HOLIC, I do not believe that it has the quality that I am looking for to be my MAIN. Previous to me turning into a MMO Nomad I was always playing WOW... Now I have tried silkroad before only to experience UBER lag due to overcrowded servers. Now I wanted to know that with this new expansion that came out, do you guys think its worth trying the game once again? I mean Silkroad is a very popular F2P MMO, and I wouldn't mind trying it out but I would like to know what do you guys have to say about it?

    Unless SR suddenly is run by a company that is competant enough to deal with the major community issues such as botting, hacking and harrasment/racism that game is pretty much doomed to the laggy mess that it is currently.

    nope.... not yet anyway...
    the games stilll in alot of strife with the botters/goldfarmers/crowdedservers.
    it is a very good game.
    but right now, joymax isnt fixing its problems as effectively as they should.
    also check there forums for the millions of complaints from players that none of there staff look into lol >_>

    I played a year or so ago but when I did play, I enjoyed the graphics and most of the gameplay, the skill system wasn't great though. It also got severely grindy. And its true, there are so many AFK people and botters that it ruins the game. It has great potential and hopefully one day soon things will change, or else newer and better mmos (even some already released mmos) will pwn it into oblivion.

    I personally like Dark Eden, I tried it once before when it wasn't in English, and enjoyed it.

    SRO >> Holic

    Even with the lag and the botters at least there was multiple builds and you could assign stats (even if it was just STR or INT). Holic PvP will be worse than WoW's - Time spent should not = WINAR!!.

    LMAO, I see what you mean, I went in #1 Empty, #2 the people that ARE there don't talk. I guess im gonna have to try SRO despite all the negative feedback just to see if MAYBE just MAYBE I might like it even though its corrupt and badly hosted.

    Meh, I would jump back on SRO without a second thought if only they kill all bots and prevent more and upgrade their servers.

    Agreed. It would be so much better without all the damn bots and AFK stalls. They need to add a time table for how long people can stay on.

    5 hours without actually playing and that's it, you're off.

    Dont play. Half the people bot. Half the people are Turks that do not speak english. Some are just afk. A game that has a bot that you can buy just fails. ESPECIALLY when the server can hold only so many people otherwise it starts kicking people out/ not let people log in.

    Yeah, and just to be able to login, you have to pay. That's just sick.
