ASTA, ELOA, Battlecry, Dragon’s Prophet and more! | The XP 10.9.2015

by

What’s up Attackers, Kirk here with your weekly MMO News for October 9th, 2015. On today’s episode we have a couple new, or at least new to you, games that we can start looking forward to, as well as another MMO death, which is becoming increasingly more common. All that and more on today’s episode of the XP.

Webzen’s Asian inspired fantasy MMO Asta: The War of Tears and Winds has just announced its first beta test which is scheduled for this November. What’s really cool about this beta, and what we’d hope many games would do, is that the beta test is fairly long and mostly unrestricted. Starting on November 3rd, all players with a free Webzen account will be able to check the game out. So that’s pretty cool, we’ll all get to check out the character creation, talent trees, PvP battlegrounds, the crafting systems and all that good stuff. Unfortunately, all progress will be wiped at the end of the beta, but I guess that’s to be expected. You can check out the sort of brand new beta trailer playing above my voice now!

A Bethesda spokesperson recently spoke to an Australian video game site, Progress Bar, about why Battlecry didn’t make an appearance at the recent EB Expo, and the statement given, is less than promising. And I quote “We have concerns about the Battlecry game and whether it is meeting the objectives we have for it. We are evaluating what improvements the game needs to meet our quality standards. The studio remains busy during this process on multiple projects”. So I’ve got to play Battlecry at the past two E3’s and was less than impressed, and it doesn’t help that this ‘Arena Shooter’ game genre is the new MOBA, with titles like Gigantic and obviously Overwatch from Blizzard.. Oh, and Paladins from Hi-Rez Studios. I tend to think the game is too far along to scrap, but the competition is definitely starting to heat up.

Might as well head back to Webzen here for a moment. The studio also announced this week that their free to play hack’n’slash MMORPG, ELOA: Elite Lords of Alliance, will be heading to their first North American and European closed beta coming up on October 13th. As with ASTA, anyone with a Webzen account will be able to check out ELOA, and you can even download the client today so that you’re ready to go on October 13th for the approximately week long beta. Also, all progress will be wiped at the end of the beta. Sign up at eloa.webzen.com.

Sad news here, I think .. not really though. Dragon’s Prophet, the immensely un-original Dragon MMORPG from Runewaker Entertainment and Daybreak Games will no longer be active as of November 16th. At least here in North America, as that was Daybreaks geographic reign on the game, so maybe someone else will pick it up, although I’m not sure why. I’ve always joked with colleagues that Dragon’s Prophet was SOE’s (I know it’s Daybreak now), least liked game and was often the most overlooked at the E3’s and PAX’s of the world. Heck, even at the now defunct SOE Live’s the past few years, very little was ever shown off form Dragon’s Prophet. Just a sad, sad game. Sorry. I won’t miss it.   You probably won’t either.

ESTsoft has announced that the Ruin of the Gods update to Cabal 2 will be going live on October 14th. Ruin of the Gods is designed specifically for players of level 40+ and features the Gray Canyon zone. Journeying through Gray Canyon will offer players the opportunity to level from 40-45 through three brand new dungeons complete with quests and gear drops. According to ESTsoft, these dungeons offer the most challenging game content to date.

The dungeons are:
* Silent Snowfield for level 43
* Ancient Academy for level 45
* Tomb of Kain requiring completion of the first two. Check it out next week!

Lastly I’ll quickly mention that Block N Load the what I thought was already a free to play shooter, is officially going free to play. I guess I assumed it was already free to play because it just looked so .. blah, I dunno .. un-interesting. I mean, a shooter with Minecraft like qualities, how many of those are there now? Roblox, Guncraft, Cubeworld, Ace of Spades .. Trove. Oh, and Minecraft. So yeah, Block N Load is now officially free to play and you can get it on their official website or on Steam.

That’s all I’ve got for you today, please leave this video a like, a subscribe, a comment and I hope you all have a great fucking weekend. Cheers!

New H1Z1 Art, Wildstar Free to Play, First Assault and more! | The XP 10.2.2015

by

What’s up Attackers! Kirk here with your weekly breakdown of the biggest and most noteworthy stories for the week in MMO ending in October 2nd. On today’s episode we’ll be talking about H1Z1, Wildstar, Landmark, First Assault and more! The XP starts now!

So yesterday the folks over at Daybreak Games released a video unlike we’ve ever seen from the company. The September Art Wrap-Up video was a sort of teaser of in-game art assets that gives us a glimpse of what the team is working on, and what we can expect to see in the future from the post-apocalyptic zombie survival MMO game (that’s a mouthful of a genre right?) In the video you’ll see new walking and crawling animations for humans and zombies, people tied up in bags, new animals like a cougar and fireflies, as well as maggots and roaches. Zombie heads in jars and some new damage marks for structures, furniture and foliage are also seen among the footage. The 4 minute video also shows a bunchof new reloading animations and just a bunch of cool stuff that any H1Z1 fan should enjoy. You’re watching some of it as I speak, but check out the full video below.

Armored Warfare, the tank battle MMO game from Obsidian Entertainment and My.com also released a video this week, but this one was just to announce the upcoming open beta test for the game. Up to this point players who have wanted to check out Armored Warfare have had to shell out for an early access pack, but when open beta begins, you’ll be able to download and play for FREE, with all of your progress being saved into launch, now that’s pretty cool. Now of course, early access members will get a head start into open beta, which runs from October first, yesterday, until October 7th, but from October 8th, anyone and everyone will be able to check the game out. More details can be found on Armored Warfare’s open beta via their website.

Earlier this week the Perfect World and Cryptic Studios guys detailed a bunch of the details for the next Neverwinter expansion titled, Underdark. Underdark will feature a new campaign, new Stronghold plot locations and PvP tower, a large-scale battle against the demon prince Demogorgon and of course much much more. The dev team also outlined how they are making repeatable content more interesting by introducing some variability into fights, so that players will need to focus less on ‘muscle memory’ and more on reading and reacting to what’s going on in battle. The team also mentioned that a laundry list of features would be covered in future blog posts, which only makes us have to bookmark their page so we can get the info to you as quickly as possible. We will definitely keep you updated here at Attack Gaming so stay tuned Neverwinter Fans!

First Assault’s first stress test kicked off yesterday, October 1st and runs for two more days to Monday October 4th. Nexon’s free to play, Ghost in the Shell inspired MMO first person shooter will have you playing as an elite augmented soldier with unique skillsets and weaponry on the urban battlefields of the future. A perk for players who play in the stress test can be unlocked by reaching level 2, in which you’ll receive an exclusive weapon skins. Also, any and all players who play this weekend will be entered to win a Logitech Ultimate Hardware Bundle. Sign up NOW via the link below. There’s not much time!

As you might have heard, Wildstar went Free to Play this week, and now one of the biggest MMORPG launches in recent years will definitely have an influx of new players trying the game out as they won’t have to shell out their hard-earned cash for the opportunity to play. A huge launch event went down in Time’s Square New York on Monday and many of you might have seen the festivities on their Twitch stream throughout the night. So yes, Wildstar is NOW free to play so go check it out right after you finish watching this video! The free to play conversion also came with quite a few changes as the ‘Reloaded’ update was the largest to date and brought redesigns in quest flow, character creations, environments, loyalty programs and an overhaul to the levels 1 to 15 experience. A brand new lighting design was added to the game, so the transition definitely became much more drastic for anyone jumping in. Like I said, check out Wildstar today!

That’s all the time I have for you today, please show this video some love with a like and a subscribe and we can’t wait to see you in the next video. Thanks again and we’ll see you on the flip side!

Golden Rush Gameplay | First Impressions HD

by

Golden Rush is a rather unusual fantasy MOBA for four teams. Here you can become one of the legendary heroes fighting against monsters, dragons, and other adventurers for the treasures of the Golden Lands.

Based on our first impressions of the game, we feel that you can find some of the same gameplay in a Dota 2 custom match, with much more polish and style.

Aftermath Beta, Paladins Gameplay, Archlord 2’s Death and more! | The XP 9.25.2015

by

What’s up Attackers, Happy last Friday of September, which I realize holds no significance, so I probably shouldn’t even mention it, but did anyways, so yeah. Kirk here bringing you a short update of the biggest MMO news stories of the week. Today we’re talking about Dragomon Hunter, RIFT, Paladins, Archlord 2 and more! The XP starts now!

Yesterday Aeria Games debuted a video that gave a nice overview of what to expect in the upcoming free to play title, Dragomon Hunter. It showed up most of what we had already heard about: questing, hunting, collecting, breeding and leveling, but with much more detail than we’ve previously been privy too. I guess the most interesting news of note is that they also announced the closed beta date, which is coming three weeks from now, on October 15th. Additionally the Founder’s Packs were announced which ranged from a moderate $19.99 up to $299 and 99 cents, I know, that’s a huge, which gives you the ability to craft special weapons and armor, so …

RIFT is inching closer to update 3.4 and Trion Worlds continues to tease what to expect with this week’s zone breakdown of Planetouched Wilds. The new zones show off some really wild architecture, scenery and animals, including this sort of bloated floating alligator-like creature with too many legs and long beard with eyes underneath its mouth and nose, that floats through the air like a fuzzy whale. Yeah .. picture that for a moment. Five new named areas and a few off-the beaten path locations will be added in the update along with a long list of other additions which can be found on RIFTS website if you’re so inclined.

Hi-Rez studios revealed some brand gameplay footage for their upcoming free to play team based shooter Paladins: Champions of the Realm. This marks the first time that many of us got to see any in-game footage, unless you were lucky enough to get to see the game as it was revealed at Gamescom recently. While the video wasn’t dedicated entirely to gameplay, there was enough of it to get an idea of how the game will be played out. Think a mix between Overwatch and Gigantic with a card system that allows players to upgrade and specialize their characters by obtaining cards through matches. Early Access was also mentioned to be starting sometime soon, and you can sign up on its official website.

On the heels of its last update, Archlord 2 has announced that the free to play MMORPG will be shutting down on November 24th. So, it’s last update is the last update ever. A specific reason for shutting down was not given, but based on previous shutdowns, it’s just that the game is not worth their effort any longer. Of course, Webzen gave some amazing, I think, stats that said over 300,000 players have logged onto the game for a combined total of over 5 million hours, but without comparing that to other games, it’s probably not very much. Players can, although I’m not sure why, take advantage to 100% boosts in experience, gold, item drops and fame gains until the shut-down in November.

The open beta test for Aftermath, an upcoming open-world zombie survival MMO backed by George C. Romero began today. The game is not entirely new as you will remember the game by it’s previous name, The War Z, or Infection: Survival Stories, but this time under a new developer, Free Reign Entertainment. The game is very similar to an H1Z1 or a RUST or DayZ in that you’ll be exploring a world filled with zombies where the other players are much more dangerous than the zombies and you’ll need to utilize a variety of skills to aid in your survival while trying to figure out who is your friend or foe and bla bla bla. Players of these games know what they are looking for, so if you want to check out Aftermath, do it on Steam starting today!

That’s all I have for you today, please be sure to like and subscribe and stay tuned for more videos from us here at Attack Gaming. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend!

Darkscape – Runescape Gameplay | First Impressions HD

by

Conquer a massive world with danger around every corner, dominate deadly high-risk regions and make your fortune running lucrative trade routes.  Darkscape is a separate instance in Runescape except for two things: all the content (quests and areas) are free, and the game is full PvP.  The game is much more hardcore than Runescape.

Dead Island: Epidemic Shutting Down, Neverwinter, DarkScape and more! | The XP 9.18.2015

by

What’s up Attackers, Kirk here and welcome to the September 18th edition of The XP. On today’s show we’re going to cover Dead Island Epidemic Closing Down, Everquest Expansions announced, Neverwinter, WIldstar and a new Runescape? That and more on today’s episode!

Earlier this week Deep Silver announced that they are ceasing further development on their Dead Island Zombie MOBA, or ZOMBA, Dead Island: Epidemic. The team stated that they have been evaluating feedback and criticism from players over the past few months and their final conclusion is apparently, it’s not working. The servers will be shut down for good on October 15th, with very large discounts on characters and boosts until then. No word on whether or not they will be refunding players for currency spent like many games have before them, but from the announcement’s wording, it seems not.

Carbine Studios continues to release the many upcoming changes to Wildstar in anticipation of its free to play conversion that will take place later this month. This week the new crafting system was revealed which brings changes to the four tradeskills that use their Circuit Board Crafting technologies, which allow you to craft items with stats. The goal with changing tradeskills in the free to play update is to smartly integrate new stat changes to keep it deep and rewarding, but not as complicated, which was a complaint that many had with the existing system. I don’t have 20 minutes to go over all the changes, so check out Wildstars website if you want the details!

Neverwinter’s Stronghold Update which brings the much anticipated guild vs. guild combat has finally gone live this week, and it’s major selling point, giving war-oriented guilds the opportunity to wreak havock on other guilds halls for honor, glory and loot, is now ready for players to enjoy. The guild battles which feature 20v20 skirmishes that combine two stronghold maps into one, (best way to describe it as MOBA-like with three lanes) will let guild members earn upgrades to guild halls and improve offensive and defensive capabilities to their members for winning. The update went live on September 15th, so what are you waiting for?

Daybreak Games announced that both EverQuest and EverQuest II would be seeing brand new expansions that will be fully revealed during a live-stream event on October 1st on Twitch. What we know at this point is that both titles will be seeing full expansions which we assume will mean new raids, new quests, new and updated zones and more. Come October first we’ll have much more info and we’ll keep you updated then!

Lastly I wanted to bring up DarkScape which is what, RuneScape but darker? No? Maybe? Let’s see. Umm .. DarkScape is an experimental sandbox MMO where open-world PvP and ruthless trade wars are the name of the day. Get it now? DarkScape is a brand new game, but not really, cause you need RuneScape to play it, it’s more of a game within in a game. Easiest way for me to describe it is RuneScape with PvP everywhere in Legacy Mode. There are three regions that are separated into different risk levels which have different loot drops and such. If you know more about it, or have played it, comment below and let us know what you think!

That’s all I’ve got for you today, thanks for watching, be sure to subscribe, have a great weekend and we’ll see you in the next video. Bye!

Otherland Gameplay | First Impressions HD

by

Otherland is an Unreal-powered Action MMORPG based on the highly acclaimed novels by Tad Williams.  Unfortunately this game, and we’ll just cut straight to the point, sucks.  It’s been in development for a while now and all the hype has died and the game gives no redeeming qualities.

But please, watch our video to find out more!
