Well now, I jumped in this thread aswell without reading anything in the past pages. Can someone give me the short version?
This game solid?
Whats the difference between f2p and payers?
Main selling points?
If there is, what world, serv, etc majority of you guys on?
D:
ArcheAge is a sandpark MMORPG (mix between themepark and sandbox) with tab target combat made in CryEngine 3.
Themepark stuff:
- levels
- tab target combat
- boring questing to level
Sandbox stuff:
- open world housing/land claiming
- player run economy
- open sea, with sailing and boats and all that shit
- open pvp with criminal/justice system
- extensive crafting with crafted gear being the best
- trading system (you transport packs via boats over the ocean to get stuff)
- farming/raising animals on your land
- pirates
- on the north continent you can build castles and siege enemy castles to gain land
Game is solid, imo. Big queues since it just launched.
Big difference between F2P and a sub is that F2P can't own land, and they have slower labor point regeneration. You can eventually become a subscriber as F2P via an EVE-like system, called APEX.
As for the server, we're kinda divided (sad face guys D;). Tenne is on Shatigon, Gravoth is on Aier, me and Banok are on Melisara. Not with the intent to promote my server, I would advise picking a non-headstart server, as there's less tryhard Patrons and more land availible to claim - Melisara or Orchidna.
