Silkroad Online Forums

Just finished me first FGW run! Uniques(bosses) now drop an item called Faded bead, they give random SP's. I got 200 from one, 600 from another one and 2000 from the last one ^^

nice!! no more farm!!

btw dont know if you guys noticed but you dont dlvl anymore
if you reach lvl limit it will keep you with 0.00 and 0 xp
this means PK free will and no more PFARM!!!

Sounds too good

XP at low lvls is slower but it will improve with higher lvls i think

GM in DW NOW
taking notes of bugs & suggestions
and yes, he's actually talking back!

edit: he's gone
He took screens of all suggestions & bug reports.

Will be looked into:
*Coins to make guild
*Wolves (1m gold, but gold starts @ 70, so f*ck lvling a wolf...), so prolly either coins or maybe 70wolf but more expensive
*Bug with the 100% xp/sp buff, it went passed 00:00 but mine didn't reset
*OLD JOB SYSTEM! I brought it up & immediately a dozen other players also asked for it
edit: *expensive horses will also be looked into

edit3: gm chat added

Yes, it's nice. I was there (actually in the last picture), asking about that stuff as well.
Also reported some bugs. Was nice that he replied back to our concerns

This server is turning out to be great. I'm actually having fun playing and it's nice to see the gm's walk around towns and ask for people's opinion, sro-r is, imo, much better than the current isro.

yeah lets see how it turns out, if they keep like this after OBT

atm all i saw was good aspects

goldbots are ruined;
no more pfarm;
no more farm!!;

but as we all noticed xp is slower at low lvls xD
still doesnt bother me

any good news?

That's a broad question, lol.
What do you mean?

I think the server is great. Just got to 35 and I have 1903 spare sp. Lvling pretty fast and enjoying it

good, that was pretty much it.
knowing that SRO-r is working way better than isro is enough for meh.

which server are u guys in? still downloadin.

Thebes.
Edit. Fixed server name.

I was having fun on here until I noticed how it's still full of bots. I'm done.

What is up with people nowadays? You see a bot and you give up?
Seriously, put yourself together, man. Not talking to you directly, more specifically to everyone who leaves because they see a bot:
First of all, going back to isro is not a solution. Silkroad-R is by far better than Silkroad even with bots.
Secondly, shouldn't legits fight the bots instead of just saying: Okay, you won. As soon as we see them there?

Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh. Didn't mean to. I'm just getting tired of people quitting for a reason, which I do not find very valid. I mean, do what you want. But if we want to keep the legit community alive, we should not give up so easily.

They are the weaklings they only slow us down

No it's not that I seen a bot, it's that the area's I try to grind quests in get filled up with them super fast and kill everything. I figured with the game improvements, the community would improve at least a little bit. The people that do reply to me when i try talking don't speak english...

I get you, I do.
I have problems with filled up areas as well. But yeah, that's just how it is. I'm just glad they're not all bots!
As I read over what I wrote before, I have to admit I guess I sounded too hard on you. You should do whatever you want. Didn't want to sound commanding, lol. Sorry if I did


And yeah, Avell, that's probably it

Yea, i agree. Most of the legits nowadays are just cowards. It's kinda sad to see people quitting after 1-2 days already, because there are bots on the server. Where is your fighting spirit nowadays? Why does everyone give up that fast? Did you forget how to fight for your ideals and dreams? I remember times, when legits in our situation would say "hell yea, let's beat the crap out of these bots and let's show them, that we legits are superior to them". When legits were actually fighting back and not just retreating as soon as they see bots. I am kinda disappointed in the legit community nowadays. We can do it, we can enjoy playing on this server together and we can beat up the bots and teach them a lesson. I'd really like to have the Venus confederation around now. They wouldn't just leave the server to the bots.

Also, I really don't like seeing bots almost everywhere, but honestly it's still a lot better than on ISRO and in my opinion it's also better than on most private servers, as they just get boring as soon as you are capped. So let's fight against the bots together, let's show them, how this game is supposed to be played. It's time to fight together now, as legits, as friends, as comrades. How can you call yourself a true legit, when you give up as soon as you see bots? Is that the legit fighting spirit, which made the venus confederation so famous and successful? Every legit, who retreats now, is not a true legit in my eyes, but just a coward, who won't even fight for his ideals.

I'll just leave a quote (with some minor changes) here, which describes our current situation quite good in my opinion.



And yea, i really love that speech and the movie(s) in general. Also it just reminded me of our current situation. Maybe i should put that changed version into my signature to encourage the legits.

I'm still playing and I guess I will for a while lvl 50 and rising!

All of you on thebes? I made a new character on Gobi, seems half-dead. I mean Gms were spawning giants for a bit, but other than that it was almost empty and no one would speak. XD I'm going to try thebes... can't decide on a character to make though. Anyway, if you guys see "Alorei" it's me. Feel free to message me and say hi, I want to get into it but it does get tedious soloing everything D:

Wow, you're really leveling extremely fast! Congratulations


Yep, we're all at Thebes: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=130517

Hehe, blessing is pretty good ^^ Anyway, got to 51 and now I'm off till monday. See you then Merry xmas

I guess i will make a character later, this server seems promising.

Pretty sure that i can convince a few irl friends to start on this server with me after the finals.


1 last thing, IIRC you can only get your gear from tokens that you need to do quests for them, so if you don't do quests, you can't buy weapons/clothes?
Or Does the tokens drop too when killing mobs?

If they let things go as it's going right now, the game is gonna be full of people running full 8/8 parties on their own just like the regular isro. The only difference is they now have up to lvl 70 to ban bot. And, bots will be hitting 70 soon, so we'll see how they handle it soon.

I don't understand why they would make a silkroad-R if they are not going to do anything and let it die like the regular sro. (which is what's happening right now)

Actually it is pretty early to say that the server is die-ing, they still got a chance to fix it.

Let's hope they use that chance, we will see what would happen in the following months.
I saw some other companies that used a chance like a big patch like this to please the players by stopping the botters/hackers.

Maybe if joymax decides eventually that they will get a working game guard or ban the botters, until then they won't be much better than at isro.

They got till bots start hitting 70 to ban them, which is gonna happen really soon. So we'll see how it goes.

Oh crap.. There's two servers already. eh?

Not that I'm going to quit, but your whole speech sounded like you are choosing slavery (SRO-R) over death (iSRO), when you could simply pick freedom (a whole different game).

Give it a month or 2 and the GM's will have enough of it and it'll probably go back to old iSRO like situations.

Not really. I like playing SRO and i can enjoy it even, if there are bots around. Of course not as much as i would enjoy it, if they wouldn't be around, but i am just not someone, who will give up as soon as bots appear on the server. I'll just keep going and fight the bots. If most of the legits wouldn't loose their courage as soon as they see bots, i am quite sure we could even build up a 2nd venus. There were also bots on venus, but in the end it didn't really matter, because the legits were much stronger. It could be the same on SRO-R, if we just wouldn't give up.
