Silkroad Online Forums

the pic is nice but its euro look at the guy's chest ,the logo
and @ kazooo christians are euro !!

i dont think americans was in the silk road...

I was just giving stupid example.
and who say christians are euro? I didnt see joymax say that somewhere.
If christians are euro let them make some other race with name of some continent and let them be islam. Just religion race is just so stupid.

r0ffie, you guyz are smarth

MMO's races or classes need balance. Not some triangular bullshit, they need balance. Each player should have the capability of taking the opponent down.

Regardless, SRO is a dead game. No end game content, nothing but a grind, costs a fortune to be decent, costs even more to be good, has serious player community issues. What is good about this game? :S

silkroad is a FACTUAL route in which merchants/traders delivered various materials from china to europe and visa versa. back then constantanople (i think its istanbul now) was the center of europe emipire, the heart of europe much like the uk france germany and spain roles of europe now.

there was no such thing as christianity it was before the time when christianity had become a popular religion and the main religion was catholic/jew

america was certainly not a country to even consider trading, i mean columbus came at like 1500 or something and with this map of the silkroad in the 1st century

i think we can say silkroad online was based around this time.

i think everyone should be put through a intro of silkroad online which is a 30min long video of the silkroad lol

ps. sorry this was so long. and sorry this has just made it even longer -.-

maybe islam chars have absolute dmg also i read in a forum that the new race will use summon skills. so they will summon a genie and it will atack . idk if is or isnt true

No point in making assumptions as to when it will be released. Only Joymax knows. Most likely they will release it when their Silk sales start to go down...

1/ It's just a euro trader, hunter & thief...
2/ Where did u even get the idea that the new header has to do with "Islam" update?
3/ STOP B1TCHING about the goddamn races/religions & other bullsh1t...
OMG

Who the f*ck cares... (& don't come saying "I do, cuz I Islam man" Or I'll smack you in the head")

How many posts in this topic have been about the "update" anyway... 3?

i hope your history(or whoever teaches you about that stuff) teacher wont read what u wrote

cleric :p

Joymax announces big approvements weeks before their release normally.

My guess is that chin tombs will come out first during the first 6 months of next year, than probably another fort, and next year the islam race... unless Aion is becoming too popular and they loose too many players to that game. Aion was choosen as best game in Korea and I think that ksro lost his players leaving for that one.

Aion is from playNC, it will probably be paying like guild wars or LineageII, but compared to the silk it's cheaper than SRO actually.

Hope The 100 Cap comes Soon and Hope the Newr ace comes wid it i dont want to DOENLOAD 1000000000 Updates

Oo, u see history of (REAL) Silkroad, christian? OMG

aion will make alot ppls quit sro. JM can add chin tomb run events but i dont think so this will help. sro is doomed. (i will quit sro too i spend over 30 usd each month. my few friends will come to aion too they are silk buyers so they can afford. sama98b cya in aion i hope

Perhaps seeing you in Aion, ingame name if not taken MoonShade.
But I love sro too, graphically it's very good. I love going on the shades by night just for watching them, my name MoonShade is inspired by that.

Joymax originally referred to them as civilizations on their website. Now they're races, lulz.

Europe was also originally meant to be based on Roman/Greek mythology, but they changed it to Christianity to make it fit in with the Silk Road time wise.

I think you should perhaps travel back to the original silroad.

You can spit on joymax for a lot of things but their history knowledge of the silkroad is good, the silkroad was indeed going from china to Rome passing through arabian countries.


Their silkroad is situated around xiv or xv century but I don't think that the game is religion based. Call it races or civilizations, it's a fact that between china (jangang) and Istambul (constantinople) there were camel stops, some in Samarkand (check out on internet for views, the city of samarkand is designed with buildings of real Samarkand). But some trade routes went further to south not to the himalaya (karakoram) and it's probably that part that will be introduced, some parts of the silkroad went very far into actual India.

The fact that people care that Islam is a religion and not a race is just.... retarded.... Who seriously cares?

it's just why starting chinese and europeans?
the original silroad is so huge.... you can as well go for taoists (I think it's actually foreseen in the game but much more high level.....)

But on the other hand, too fast of an update cycle would completely turn away new players...no one would stick with the game if they were getting close to being high level, then it goes up another 10 levels and they are mid-level again.

I do. Watch out, after the "islam" race, they're going to start making the "christianity" race and the "buddhist" race.

It is already foreseen, when you install a new client you see the map of the whole game while you're waiting. I guess that Islam will fit on the map west of Roc, you can see the road already. There is also a kind of "heaven" that is foreseen, buddhist? starting in hotan. The turtle ferry, or perhaps the inactive blue stone left of the palace.

The topic starter is a total dumb ass... Making all this commotion rumble out of no where...
Those three EUROPEAN characters are one FEMALE trader, one MALE hunter, and one MALE thief!

It's common sense if you've played the long and noticed your surroundings... or at least have looked in the shops! And there's someone posting a picture of this crap everyday, so how could you not know? I face-palm just for you my friend....

////////face-palm

they should make chinese more balance with europe by doubling every buff/imbue for chinese, then it will be balanced, islam i dont care

We just need a new SRO with 1 universal atheist race.
This way we cannot argue about the fact that a race is overpowered or religion is playing a too big role in SRO.

There were even posts about muslims wanting to have a davidsstar removed from Karakoram because it "offends" them.

People just need to grow the **** up.

The only way I could think that Islam could hurt euros, and not chinese, are probabbly some buff-removing skills, like for removing holy word / bless / fences & screens ...

Nothing else

who cares about updates? u will have to buy uber extra premium plus++ to get lvl 100 if they release it, also everywhere u go there will be a bot, im happy that i dont play sro anymore rofl. lame game for "rich "? people, lovely f2p game where u ahve to spend over 40$ everymonth, gratz to all u guys who still like this game, soon u will open ur eyes as me gl
