Well.
I have a *small* problem.
I just can't figure out what how and where to do..
I installed PlayOnline but I can't figure out how where when to use what. =__=
Japaneese rocks!

So my question, what where how to fill and how to access TetraMaster?
And btw. I saw a installation guide in english floating around, but I can't find it..!

You're killing me man

I am anxiously waiting any shred of information on an English/US version of the game :isee:

Ged · « **Reply #3 on:** 2003-01-09 19:17:24 »

Well... It will be released, *someday* from what I heard. March, i think?

Anyhow, my problem now is the ... cd-key.. damn.. =__=

Mmm, haven't been here in quite a while again. Yeah, you are going to have a tuff time going throught that playonline thing. It's a bunch of stuff you have to go through just to login to FFXI. You can always try to make Japanese friends and invite them to play FFXI.

Then again, I'm not interested in FFXI. Ragnarok Online is too adictive for me to go to another MMORPG. Plus it's far more popular in Korea and Japan than FFXI. O_O Must level to level 60 Knight @_@, must kill Baphomet and Doppleganger.

With those words, Ged went to d/l Ragnarok..

Waaah! That cd-key search is making me go bonkers (*donk,donk*)..

Sorry, buddy, you'll have to wait until February to play RO. It went to Closed Beta and the registration is closed now. You can still see some pics and clips of the game.

Ged · « **Reply #7 on:** 2003-01-10 13:46:38 »

I know, but before i d/l it =__=

If you download it, you can check out the music. The music is pretty good.

Oh yeah, did I mention it was anime style sprites mixed with 3D graphics, good combination I must say. I'll post a pic once I play today.

Edit:

Here are some screenshots:

2 of my favorite soundtracks:

Taken down, request if you want.

some facts:

Based on the Korean Manwha "Ragnarok" by Myung-Jin Lee, published by Tokyopop here in the U.S. Game developed by Gravity.

k, that should get you interested, I guess. Maybe I should upload a clip.

Ged · « **Reply #9 on:** 2003-01-10 18:43:44 »

Yup. Gonna d/l definaetly..
Yet, I will have to wait before FFXI ends..
Still no cd-key. Damn =__=

vvalentine · « **Reply #10 on:** 2003-01-10 19:03:27 »

Oh don't worry, it'll be years before RO ends, plus you might join when the 3rd class jobs are implemented in the game, something that even in the korean version is still to come. Honestly, I don't think FFXI will last a long time. I just didn't find it interesting, plus the gameplay is boring. Not much action in FFXI, but whatever floats your boat. For final fantasy games, I'm just going to stick to the non-online versions, since story is what makes those games.

Edit: Oh yeah BTW, Ged, I just found out that the registration was opened for one more week, but it's going to close this Jan 13th. The fee is $10 for server maintance and other stuff. It would be kinda high for you since there is only 1 more month of Closed Beta, plus it's a beta (it still has some bugs). Once closed beta is over it will go pay to play.

Ged · « **Reply #11 on:** 2003-01-11 18:21:06 »

Thanks!

It seems to be getting along really nice, pitty for the payment, but heck it!
I think it is worth it.
Yet still, I want to try out FFXI.
Currently I'm d/l'ing the music you have uploaded.
And listening to "Sephiroth - Orchestral Theme">.
Something about me? :z

Ged · « **Reply #12 on:** 2003-01-11 18:26:47 »

I have just finished listening to the mp3's..
Now I understand why you really like it..!
How big is the whole music file for Ragnarok Online?

vvalentine · « **Reply #13 on:** 2003-01-11 19:03:42 »

Well, there are about 50 tracks for the music. Each about the same size. Some are awesome like the ones I uploade, some are so so, mellow or for the mood. Some are dull. But other than that, it's one of the best music I have ever heard in an MMORPG. I would have to say the whole music zipped would be around 200 MB. The game alone is around 500 MB, along with patches. But I think you can request a CD to be sent to your address.

Edit: I decided to take down the mp3s for later and add a video clip.

Sorry for the crap ass quality of the video. That's the lowest I could go to save space. Well, I could make it with better quality and less space but, for right now this is a quicky.

used DivX 5.0 to make it. I'll try and make small better quality files later.

and other mp3s:

How many of you are going to pay to play the game? Just out of curiosity..

vvalentine · « **Reply #15 on:** 2003-01-15 02:29:10 »

Not me, I'm already getting my fill of RO.

BTW, if you are new to MMORPGs and want to try them out. DON"T EVER PLAY EVERQUEST. That game is crap, and the people who run them are a bunch of assholes.
