I still keep getting DC. Do i need Loader to get in?

i log in and get instant dc :/

i only get the ???? again like its offline

Just the lite, the other 2 files are sro_client.exe files, you don't need those.

OB delayed for another 1-2 days due to a "massive" spawn bug.

Good work everyone, we haven't even really started playing yet and we're already bug hunting.

Did you use loader or not?

is this true lol

it is, oh well, that's life.


If it all works out well, maybe once the year is over we can have a nice playable server.

cheers. (and yes, i am frustrated as well, i just lost an entire afternoon, but still)

Ha, I knew this would happen. And in 1-2 days later, they're gonna delay it again. Bet $10.

are you guys all gonna act like little kids who can't get their present in christmas?

Yes, cuz I'd be pissed off if I got my Christmas presents 1-2 weeks later.

Oh, damn it. Such impatient guys like you are getting even more on my nerves, than the delays iself. If you don't like it, just don't even bother participating in the beta. A beta usually means, that there might be problems, which need some time to be fixed.

are you gonna be the kid who is going to suck up to his/her parent to get a bigger present?
i mean seriously, it's fair for us to expect them to open the server on launch.
I.E. 2 or 3 years ago they started advertising -> pserver with euros
lost coders
got coders
2 years later, announce ob for the end of the summer
end of the summer -> next winter
next winter -> launch next summer with no euros
summer -> fall with no euros
fall -> delay a week
week -> delay an hour
hour -> delay a few more hours
a few more hours -> delay 2 days.
we are allowed to be upset at the process, i mean seriously, I know they don't have to do it, but don't say you are doing it lol.

Do you even know, how hard it is to get a server running without any problems? I guess not. It's trial and error, you'll never know, which problems might occur, when you try to run a server. You can't expect them to do everything alright from the beginning, can you?

Don't like it? --> GTFO and come back, when the server is running.

you think i'm not upset?

you think i don't got better shit to do than waste a whole afternoon?

I'm not sucking up to no one, i just understand the difficulties AND i also understand that WE'RE NOT PAYING FOR ANYTHING, it's their offer, they're trying to give something to this community.


So it seems you're gonna act like the spoiled kid, play your role then, bitch.

even tho it is a great disappointment that the server will be closed for 2 more days in their defense it was open for a bit.

long enough for me to get in and play for about 10-15 minutes, what i can tell you is, it seemed like 30x exp rates and something crazy like 200x sp rates. there was some glitches with moving/finding/attacking mobs. my client crashed twice trying to get outside the city, then finally got out, and when i was lvl 8 and wanted to get back in the city my client crashed about 4-5 times, and then they closed down the servers.

Did you use Loader? And did anyone get online without using loader? I always kept dcing, after i entered my nickname and password (correct one).

i logged in and got on with my char without loader kronos, but after that i moved around a bit in jangan and then got dc'd and started to get instant dc as soon as i entered the char

Ok thanks a lot. Then apparently you don't need loader to get it running, it's just for the english patch. I was just trying to figure out, if loader is needed to run Zelos, but apparently it's not.

this bug wasnt detectable untilthere was a large number of people connecting. this is what betas are for.

no shit mate

yeah i didn't use a loader altho i might cause using this Korean locale thing is a bitch.

All I'm saying is that you play your role as if you aren't upset,
I mean, that analogy is flawed in and of itself. When a business says that they will provide service, free or not, they should follow up with their dates professionally. I understand it's difficult, but don't advertise, accept donations, or do who knows what, and not have a functioning server (and @cpinney, getting to level 8 amidst 10 crashes is not functioning) is blasphemous. I understand it's tough, but you are allowed to be pissed off, and you don't need to tell people they are doing something wrong, by wanting something they were promised.

cpinney, all the dcs you got were related to that one bug, and we know about the buggy movement it's being worked on ;D

I was having a hard time getting away from Jangan too. When I finally got away they closed down the server, causing me to DC. And when I got back in, SURPRISE, I was back in Jangan and had an even harder time to get away.
Then me and House wanted to meet so we said ''LET'S GET AWAY FROM JANGAN FIRST'' and right when I started walking, they closed the server again for that bug. ;_;

good to know, the buggy movement only happened a few times but still more times then it should.

This is why they should have called the Closed Beta "Alpha Testing" and the "Open Beta" should have been called "Closed Beta" so stuff like this could have been fixed before the open beta lol.

I totally agree with you, I was in the server for like 3 minutes and I couldnt move away from spawn place, I saw some guys standing there but I couldnt talk and I got dced, to be honest this open beta was totally diffrent then we expected zelos team should have waited a bit more for the open beta because what happened yesterday wasnt what an open beta should be for this kind of major bugs should be discovered in alpha test.

oh well atleast we connected and saw that the server isnt fake and stuff and i hope to see a stable version in the next 2 days or next week.

but again, this wasnt something that could be pinpointed with as few people as the closed beta, and if they open the server to the public to test these sort of things they cery well cant call it a closed beta can they? just get over it.

I just don't like the fact that some people are acting like kids towards something that's being done for us, for free, i'd like to see some more compreension, you see mate?



I totally agree with you on this one, but i don't really see this as professional. Something professional is something that is done by people who are paid to do that something, and nobody here is paying for nothing. So, the least that we can do is give em some understanding, this is my view on it.
