Apparetly the developers have a lot of prior MMO experience, so hopeuflly they'll be prepared. It's going to be interesting to see if this really does perform well on all the networks (wifi, 3G and EDGE). Maybe they did this on a smaller scale, but I know most PC MMO's will have a stress test, usually a weekend where everyone can download a client and play. This allows them to test to how the servers handle an influx of players. Hopefully all that was done and the servers are ready to go.
Square, I noticed that the bear could also use two handed weapons. Does this mean it isn't solely a tank, it can dps as well?
Aaaaannnnd downloaded and waiting on my iPad 64GB 3G to arrive. This wait is killing me. NOTE: If I start a character on the iPhone version during a break at work, can I come home to the iPad and continue to use the same character right where I left off? I know it said it plays across all devices, but there's a difference between playing a game on all devices and actually being able to continue from where you left off across all three devices. I'm thinking that since it requires online connectivity it will do this?
I think it's alright to release this information, but was it just me that had a "secret" invitation to beta test this game?
That is correct, your character can be played on any device. We will have different servers to distribute load, but you can be the same guy on touch, iPad, or iPhone.
Do they keep updating and adding new games throughout the night? Any reason to believe it will be released to tonight?
id mainly like to see the layout of everything compared to the ipad, if there will be future expansions, and can u do raids/join guilds?
Beautifully put! That is exactly it. I just loathe tanking a lot and don't want to have to be one if playing the Bear, but I love using the giant swords.
Thanks for the explanation: I'm a newbie on the whole MMORPG thing. The bear can do a lot of damage, both with weapons (the magic axes are bad ass) and with a variety of special attacks -- including area damage and pushback.
Yeah, sorry about that. After like ten years in the MMORPG scene you forget when you start talking in acronyms not everyone knows what they mean. And very nice! Two handed bear here I come
You will be given a selection of Dungeon to host. More will be available for purchase from within the application. seems like most of the game is locked. could there maybe be a subscription in the future for a small ammount of money either monthly or a few months unlock every area/dungeon?
Definitely regular expansions of content and systems. Guilds are on our "short" list. Warrior (tank), Archer (ranged), and Enchantress (mage) for now, more possible. Three at launch with more ready to go. They cost $1.99 and give you more maps, minidungeons, mobs and boss encounters, loot, and let you level another 5 levels. Here is a flick of the iPhone resolution (out soon!): Thanks for the questions. Keep 'em coming, and head over to our forums to get registered!
Very cool, thanks for answering our questions. So I'm assuming content packs will keep coming out. Any idea on the max level you can reach? Also, expansions/game updates, will those cost money as well?
I want to buy this game as soon as possible! It looks so awesome, I can't wait to kick some mobs' butts with Warrior Bear! Great job, Spacetime Studios, just great! But why animals? PS: 1.99 seem to be fair price for DLC exansions, how frequently will they be relased?
