Which guild did you join Syn? Black Phoenix? Kin? I saw a lot of names. I tried to whisper you when you got on but I think you might have been flooded with the barrens chat or was eyeballin the scenery ... I was invited to a female only guild called Valkyrie Knights. Mainly because i partied with the starters and they thought i was nice and invited me. I got my own rank "Einherjar" I got to 12 before I stopped in the town after the big city. The game looks amazing and I like the flight path teleporting. I was also glad I came to this server when I said this in chat "Aw man I just had a awesome name idea for Lancer, PIROS PIROS PIROS THE THIIIRD!" and so many people laughed and said hell yea etc etc... a lot of anime chat and monster hunter talk. Spoiler for for those who dont know what i'm talking about just above:

I can upload at 1MB and download at 3MB .... what they're unable to handle is an unthrottled torrent with many connections. It simply overloads the equipment they have. They are quietly upgrading but until they're sure they can keep quality of service, torrenting remains a TOS violation. If I want, say, a Linux distribution or whatever, they're quite happy to grab it at the upstream point and get it to me. I didn't know there were manual files (too many game launchers assume the downloading computer is the playing computer). Anyway, I got 13% downloaded last night so that's an improvement. Anyway, tis off topic other than the fact I'm dealing with a very large download (game developers seem to forget that a fair percentage of their audience don't have even the potential access to true broadband).

I just logged off for the night, 11 or 12, plodding along nicely. It's awesomely pretty, combat is pretty fun.
Add Vexana if you feel like it Mow. Was the last quest on the isle supposed to be a group one? It seemed to be a bit more full on then the other fights. Unicorn quest?

Me and two of my friends got to level 20 before logging off. We need a healer to stick with us from here now on, but we hate random parties. If you can make it to level 20 for tomorrow, that would be awesome :P. (Tomorrow, as in like 12hrs-ish from now on).

wait really? I could have sworn I stopped and started it again at least once and it didn't start again, it just went and checked the files before continuing on.
Anyways on atm if anyone wants to play.

My guild is kind of awesome in concept. Instead of being a strictly RP or strictly gameplay guild (PvE/PvP etc) they're an economic guild with strong interest in trading, crafting and generally owning the shit out of the auction house.
Edit: And yes the launcher does resume. I had downloaded half-ish of the files and my internet crapped out; had to reboot all the routers in the house and the whole ordeal took around 10-15 minutes... the downloader picked right back up where it was. The problem is like Mow Yun said, the entire game data is transferred in a positively huge .rar file (20.5GB), instead of breaking it up into many smaller files. This raises the chance that the entire archive will be corrupted if your internet craps out.

Ah thanks for the clarify (not that it improved my opinion of the launcher programmers , these are issues long solved by the industry by using small packages, etc.).

Seems like they are the Marisa Kirisame of the MMORPG industry, and they are still not letting us Asians in.

The males have awesome armor as well, in my opinion. (IMO), plate armor is fabulously designed for the male models. I'm less entheusiastic about the female bikini armor but meh. Out of the Elin armors, I like the plate armors the best. I'm just not a fan of the Berserker class.
