Found it!
« on: 13 May 2011, 22:22 »
So a couple of weeks ago I proposed forming a backstage as a single cohesive unit in another game. Prehaps we can look at this game as being that game for those that are interested.

The closed beta due to start later this month is limited to players from South Korea: any idea whether it's likely to be playable by the rest of us this year?

It's a sharded, persistent, sandbox game where each shard will develop differently depending on what the players do. Could someone with experience of sharded games tell me how this tends to work?

A ship in harbour is safe, but that's not what ships are built for.

Looked a bit more at this...it just...I don't see how it'd be very interesting. It all reads very blah to me. It makes his huge deal over the fact that you can build a house and ride a monorail. Its just...it seems very meh to me.

You missed the naval sea battles and the bombardment of coastal cities and forts while land troops lay siege to them. Building stuff is just boring though. Ima gonna go back to eve and build some ships, and sit in a player built station.

Oh, and burning down a entire city just sounds amazing.

Only one question: How is the grind?

It's Korean, so I automatically assume it will make diamonds weep.

I second what Graelyn asked, Korean MMOs and I have a bad history. I tend to quit early in the grind when my play starts to feel like work.
