ArchLord Beta ....

I just don't get it! the lag, the bad interface, its somthing I would have expected if it was made a few (8) years ago but not nowadays!
it just feels so clunky, its almost like Anarchy Online without the good bits.
 
I cancelled my pre-order after playing in the beta. Some nice ideas ruined by sub-standard gameplay. :o

Let's hope that LotR Online doesn't go the same way as other Codemaster-distributed MMORPGs.
 
Oh man, that was bad :eek:

Noobs being ganked by high level people, people looting your kills, crappy interface - it's like the last 6 years in mmorpg development never happened.

Whoever the markerting dude was who thought 'Hey, there's loads of Korean mmog's out there, all we need to do is throw a few translators at them and rake in the cash!" should be locked in a room and made play this as punishment.

half of it isn't even translated!

and can you realy only have female chars or is that a bug?
 
Classes were made gender specific due to the storyline. :(

The one thing I liked about ArchLord was the forced PvP after level six, which was the whole point of the game. It wasn't a game for "carebears". :)

thats all well and good IF it worked!
 
I just don't get it, theres no instructions (that I can see) about how to play, how to attack or do ANYTHING (I've worked most of it out, but it would be nice if they had).
the whole areas are crouded (more so than WOW) and no-one helps out when asked anything.
the interface is slow and mouse movment is sluggish at best (I like to be able to move fast, like in DOW etc).
I just don't get how they think this is marketable!
 
Its codemasters jumping on the mmo money making bandwagon. If they ruin LotR with bad performance and service I'm going to be soso hacked off you would not believe it. Seriously hacked.

firewall and a good AV could help with those hacks tbh.
