the main problem with it is the fact people who play private servers do nothing but ****ing complain about almost everything anyway. Ive never seen any of u people satisfied with anything EVER. Theres always probkems with servers, and if its not servers, its players, and if its not players you "just dont like it" and so on. Ifs ****ing beta for **** sake. and i bet there are people on this post (myself included) that have tried to run servers, but had to put them back cos of bugs found just b4 opening, and then youve got em on and theyve lagged to **** and so on. Jesus, every server i ever ran had that happen to it. Youd thihnk people on here would be a bit more understanding and realise things go wrong. But this forums built up to ***** and moan at each other which is why it got into the state it was in before.

In my opinion the game is very good, obviously there are bugs, problems, untranslated text, lag, and crap like that. But think about it, theyve gone from Zero to Beta in 3-4 months which is faster than most. They work constantly, have 24 hours support by phone. This is BETA its when people find the bugs, not for people to come, have a free play then moan and whinge. Given time i reckon its going to build up to be one of the leading MMORPG's i mean they had around 1000 players for open beta, and a lot of others who wont be playing till stage 2 becuase of the wipe.

I reckon all the moaners about lag etc should come back in pahse 2 or pay to play, and then make theiur mind up. If u just dont like it thats fine, but dont go saying their crap cos they have faults, its been up 2/3 days, has anyone on here had a bug free, lag free, perfect server done in 2/3 days? dont ****ing think so.

End of rant---

i agree with u atom, but the fact is, its not as gd as ppl expected, evry 1 got there hopes up 2 much!
Yes, its good, but it has its problems and sum ppl jus cnt go without complaining about it, the ppl on here kinda do piss me off permanantly complaining about servers, i dont i have once complained about a server, unless its gone down and im not happy about it!
tbh i reckon euromir2 still is better then mir3 atm, but euro mir3 is miles better then ne prive servers by far!
id like to see mir3 do very well, and then maybe, wen i can get it working properly on my comp, i will start playing and have a good time!

first of all lag:
reasons why it is so laggy
- there's alot of ppl dling autopatches and client which i'm sure are hosted on the same connection
- the connection simply cant handle a real gameserver (we're only in first few days of open beta and connection is allready choking usercount should at least triple by p2p)
- alaria is in qgo and she banned alot of ppl in mir2 which means all those ppl are now taking it out on qgo's server (yes they are gonna be dossed way more often then euromir ever was)

now the game:
- registration page has several bugs in it causing errors (even tho they had to delay their release for 12+hrs claiming they where fixing bugs in the reg pages)
- the char create screen still has translation bugs
- the autopatcher is only half translated
- most quests arent translated or are poorly translated
- many things are bugged due to faulty translations
- the book drops are badly managed atm (should have raised the drop at start and lower it in a few days), ppl are selling lvl 8-20 books at higher price then lvl 25 books atm which isnt really a good thing (i know i got a lvl 14 wizard with nothing but fireball and teleport lol)


overall:
the game is nice but the host (qgo) completely ruined every aspect of it
they where not prepared, didnt seem to have any form of closed beta (even the most basic things wherent debugged), underestamed the amount of work involved, spend 1year doing what seems to be a thing you'd do within 2months, they ****ed up their client dl (why did they make it start in the bugged window mode, why did they include old korean ftp client, ...)

Why/How is windowed mode bugged i use it constantly with no problems bar the odd shadow error @ the side of the game

Just curious cause tbh i dont like full screen and windowed allows me to browse the net and talk on msn while still hitting mobs ingame

Well i havnt played the game as i think euro mir 2 looks beta :P

but what i have to say is:

people dont like it for a couple reasons:

1. people who played private servers like the high exp not small exp
2. people got way too excited about it thinkin it was gona be the best game ever and it turned out not as good as u thought (as darkxxx said)



but i could be wrong :P

well my impressions after playing since it came open are pretty good yes its got low exp that is because it never was designed as a game where u achieve a high level with the snap of your fingers. Some of you are blaming the spawn rates for it being slow and "boring" but yes its beta we still have allot to come those of u that hate it its obviously not a game for you but I cannot see them doing anything worse than Mir 2 beta. I feel this game has great potential but will need some time to tweak but its range of landscapes spells and weaponry is vaster than Mir 2 and can only grow. Those who claim that it’s been "messed up" remember its still in beta the true test of things will come when it opens for p2p.

but hey just my opinion

It doesn't have low experience... compare the experience system to that of legend of mir 2, and you will find it's higher? also the experience is average for a mainstream game, you can't possibly expect it to be the same as a private server...

Well if the code had never been leaked they would have been in a better position as nobody would have seen the game as such - private servers have added most things that P2P Mir3 apart from a few things such as:

New Magic
New Interface
AutoPickup
Auto Bundle

to name but a few there, now most people who have played mir3 says thus - initially the game is much the same, as the places you go are the very same as mir2 (Oma Caves etc). People have been spoilt really by playing one after another private server so what is left is really not that much, which you wont see till much later such as the new spellls and such.

mir3 just doesnt have the mir feel tbh, plus the fact of super lag reminds me of mir2 when i was on 56k downloading things in the background, other than that the only thing that lets it down dramatically is every cave ive been to (around 8-10 caves) are all the same stupid tiles.

I'm awaiting an email from them to auth whether i can play or not. (Registration), yet to recieve it. I havn't had time to test it, but i think alot of people find it so boring is because the hours it takes to level are phanominal (sp?) because we are used to high EXP like FrOzEn/UnFrOzEn/WeOwn/AlphaOmega.

Best bet is to create a yahoo mail account and use this to sign up with.
They are having a lot of problems with some mail accounts, mine being one
of them. The reg process should only takes 10 mins max :)

@ TheDeath

Hows this for screwed up, got a lvl 22 war and all he's got is fencing, but started a tao and got it to 18, got every spell via the war. At least in old EI you could do quests to get your first few skills (korean server)

And This prelude to war crap... its just a few town maps (for the wars) and 100's of caves/dungeons. No friggen wonder there is bright torches or we'd all end up blind from sqinting at the little circle of light.
It doesnt relate in any way to Mir2 Or mir3 EI apart from a couple of town names, so all the story line is a load of bollox. Unless of course the Numas are in fact contracted to the local council and have decided to use the land of mir as a landfill site ,burying the whole poxy place, hence all the underground bits. I think Wemade have screwed it up tbh and it shows why Mir2 is still 10 times more popular in the east.

On the whole, dissapointed.

Thing i have to question is why didn't mir2 build every update up into mir3?? Wouldn't it bring more people in and make the story of the game a bit easier to explain???
