This game is excessively grindy. Got to lv 40 or something in the OB after grinding for over 9000 yrs, I'm still not sure if it was worth it just to look like the little girl.

As a whole, /jp/ doesn't even know about and/or is tsundere for it. We had one ring and besides us there were a number you can count on your fingers of those who cared. We're expecting the KAWAII DESU NE ^_______________^ animu graphics will draw in so many from /jp/ that we'll need two rings this time around, but a bunch of people just gave up because the Chinks took embarrassingly long to crank out OB.

>>3347869
Nope, RunUp said they're going for the cash shop bullshit, and from the looks of it the only thing that's going to be in it is cosplay shit like the OP pic and some book that lets you change your second job multiple times, which if you're doing it right you won't even need.

>>3347900
Because you were probably soloing, you fucktard. Grind is still pretty bad in a group but it's not THAT bad; hell, Steparu got to be the highest-level in the server just by spending entire days duoing in one place with an afk person.

Not like there was anyone on the server who didn't hate his guts.
The elitist pricks in his posse were pretty looked down upon by everyone else too, but it's a shame because I talked to step a few times and he's really a nice person.
The same person did the same goddamn thing in Mabinogi and probably every other MMO you've touched in your life, anyway; when has that ever stopped anybody from grindan?

>>3349357
It's different from generic grindan MMOs because it's actually playable. Classes have polish and none of them except for Shaman can really be considered broken, so you'll be able to have fun without people overshadowing you unless they're Shamans.
The graphics and music are good, skills look cool, etc etc. Give it a try and if you don't like it then you were probably playing a Vates, go pick a class that you can play without relying on others. ;_;

>>3349370
I think there were Rei & Asuka costumes in there too, bunch of cosplay. Right now this is all the Jap server since the English release has only done CB so far; they're probably going to release this stuff once OB's been out for a while.

learn the difference between trolling and (highly justified) flaming

I'd already decided never to touch a Korean MMO again (I don't give a fuck if this is Chinese, it's still the same shit), and this doesn't come anywhere close to making me change my mind. DFO looks somewhat interesting though; Korean stuff other than standard MMOs (like Pangya for example) is still acceptable

[Anonymous No.]

>>3349411
>Chinese
Japanese. Hence /jp/.

I won't tell you it doesn't play like a typical MMO though; the community besides us is pretty Gaia and just about everybody plays a Vates or a Fencer. Still, it looks better than most shitty Korean grindfests and the GMs are active, which by itself is probably enough to draw me in.
It's basically just 3D RO with lazy mode so you can go afk or log out entirely and still gain levels and shit; if you still don't like it, don't play it. But ultimately it's different enough from other grindfests to warrant at least one try.

Honestly, as much as I love ECO, I'm expecting to get bored of playing it and DFO simultaneously after a couple weeks and just transfer over to DFO instead. The only thing keeping me from playing in CB or early OB of it is Nexon hate.

[Anonymous No.]

Anyone else see Mega Man Volnutt in the OP pic?

[Anonymous No.]

>it looks better than most shitty Korean grindfests
Why is that? Is it the intricate quests (limited to 5 a day) that consist of nothing but grinding chores? Or maybe it's the ability to "explore" the zones which amount to little more than narrow paths densely packed with mobs to maximize grinding? Or the laughably shitty camera?

Just say the characters are KAWAII~ Mr. Weeaboo.

Come on, you can do better than that. Or is it that you just had all those complaints that you probably copypasted from somebody else on some forum somewhere saved up and wanted to use them to start another stupid Internet argument? I honestly don't believe you've even played this.

>intricate quests (limited to 5 a day) that consist of nothing but grinding chores
Yes, there are delivery/collection/extermination quests that are boring as fuck.
Yes, you can only do 5 a day.
But are those the ONLY quests you can do? The fuck they are. This game has plenty of quests besides the cafe ones, such as the catty quests, that give you actual rewards and have actual storylines behind them as opposed to "talk to NPC A, get item B from monster C, go to town D and see NPC E, etc" shit. And no, you AREN'T limited to 5 a day with these because they're actual quests; the others are just extra options if you want more money or something.

>Or maybe it's the ability to "explore" the zones which amount to little more than narrow paths densely packed with mobs to maximize grinding?
You confuse "zones" for "maps." Surprisingly to me, even, dungeons in this game have fairly clever designs which usually lead up to boss rooms and have easter eggs (like the meido dress NPC) lying around every once in a while. What you described are the field maps, and I challenge you to find an MMO with field maps that DON'T look like that. No, I'm serious.

>Or the laughably shitty camera?
Here's where I stop taking you seriously. Go play Ragnarok Online and say that again, because I'm positive you haven't.

Might check it out but private servers are shit; even with ridiculous lag I think I'd rather just play on the official servers instead. That is, unless the rest of /jp/ just goes to the other one.

>>3349786
'Kay. That was just a curious question since I'd heard somewhere they closed beta testers got five keys, then somewhere else that they only got one.
I hear Fighters can eventually change to some job that can heal, can't they? I guess I could be your healbitch or something if you're giving those out. Priests are too goddamned slow.
So are you going through e-mail or what?

Nen Master was the class I was talking about, by the way; apparently they get basic buffs and heals but aren't as good as Priests. They also get fancy hadokens or something too, and look pretty cool in PvP as far as I've seen.

Also, do you have any idea how big the client is? I doubt it's more than like 2 or 3 gigs, but if it's something ridiculous like 5+ I'll have to start cleaning shit up. ;_;

I'm sick of all the MMO beat-'em-ups making me use XPadder.

Back on the topic of the ECO pserver though, how the fuck does it work? The main page says something about how they translated the JP client instead of using the English one, but all the client links in their download page are the English version. I want to try this thing out at least until the Chinks get their OB out, but I'm afraid to run the patches until I find out if I'm even using the right fucking client.
It's not halfway as confusing as setting up kRO and Sakray + patches for the first time, though.

Oh no, you definitely CAN do that.
The good part about PvP is that you can do pretty much whatever the fuck you want, like heal, summon mobs, send an entire guild after one person, etc.
The bad part is that there's only one room in the entire game you can do it in. Siiigh.

>>3350379
>I couldn't play past five minutes

Oh I see, you're one of THOSE. Every MMO is identical in the first five minutes, brah; what makes this one cool is that it actually lasted long enough to come out with a wide variety of equipments to dress up your loli with and there are a fuckton of diverse jobs like some that can pilot giant robots and such. Also transformations.
Bunch of shit you can't do in other grindfests, though it still isn't the pinnacle of originality or anything. Then again, people play WoW and it's just an amalgam of things that have been done by MMOs before it.

Not likely. Shit like that came out because it was based on what was popular at the time, so if anything we'll probably see Umineko hairstyles/costumes unless RunUp decides to be lazy and release everything that had already been released on the JP servers, which wouldn't be a surprise considering how long they took on cranking out OB.

Still, coming out with stuff like this based on what's popular isn't a bad idea, so they'll probably do whatever the community seems to be the most into if they go that route.

P.P.S.
Anyone slightly curious about the game, but unwilling to wait until Singapore OB can tool around on the Indo server. It's more or less the same thing except there's about a third less English (most of the NPC names, skill names, quest names and item names are the same or at least similar enough for you to get the point without you having to whip out babelfish or what have you) and a lot more people. Seriously, the server's pretty fuckin' crowded, which blows considering there's no real anti-KS system...

But I digress. If you're interested and already have the Singapore client installed, you can just download the Indo files (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?agzzhizmz0z)) and copypasta. If the link's bad or something, I can re-up the files or whatever. Oh and you'll have to sign up for the Indo server, of course. The website is
http://econline.web.id/index
Just click "pendaftaran baru" and the shit that isn't self-explanitory can be easily translated through google or whatever. The system will let you enter in random shit for your address and postal code, but I found that it wouldn't let me log on the account unless I used a real address in Indonesia. Make sure you remember your PIN, too, 'cause you'll have to re-enter that shit to activate the account for ECO before you can actually play.

I had to make about 6 accounts total because of all that...

Most likely a day or two before OB comes out, but as >>3352790 said you can use the client from CB for the Indonesian version and apparently the private server, though in the latter registration apparently doesn't work for anyone.
Knowing these Chinks, though, there probably won't even be a new client; they'll just patch and recycle the old one. But that's just a maybe.

>>3354830
>3 quests per day, later 5
Those weren't quests, they were "GRIND FOR EXTRA MONEY." Hell, once you get to the point where you're actually doing shit those things start piling up fast; by the end of CB most of us had our quests remaining piled up to the cap - which is 15 - because we were neglecting them in favor of dungeon runs and such.

>Someone took Jones name during CB if I remembered it correctly
You remember wrong. Someone took the name 'hjones' and everyone thought it was Jones when he was actually playing--
Oh wait, I see what you mean. Yeah, someone took Remilia and he ended up going with RemiliaS. I don't think we ever did find out who got Remilia, actually, but Touhou is getting so goddamned popular now that it probably wasn't even someone from /jp/.
