Quests are shit, the grinding is impossible (for people who actually go outside), pvp is shit, the jobbing system sucks etc..

I mean seriously, if their were no bots playing SRO right now, there would be probably 20 people who actually play combined of all the servers (no bots, no loaders etc) this game.

Seriously, it's all grind to the end, then go rape all the uniques woohoo!! If anyone thinks this is even close to the best mmorpg you have a severe mental disorder or are addicted beyond help (probably both)

Nice one!!

The only thing I love from this game is the Job System.
I haven't found any other MMORPG which allows you to play that way (or just I'm too lazy to find one).
I wish SRO:
-Would restart the game.
-Stopped at 80cap
-Had really low exp rates (not that low)
-Not frigging sp farming.

If bots weren't ever existed I weren't ever had to boughted premiums

I recommand u soul of ultimate nation , i quit sro for it , but some friends call me back to sro and stupid me , i return back , only to play with them

Game isn't balanced at all.
Spawns are still way too low for mobs.
The quests suck.
Game isn't balanced at all.
did I mention the quests suck?

Then tell me, why we have an english speaking union on KSRO with around 4-5 lv.5 guilds, who are doing pt leveling almost every day. Sure, not all members are active every day due to real life, but that doesn't really matter. I bet we have at least 50 people or probably even 100, who enjoy leveling together in pts without any bots.
There are enough people, who actually do want to play the game, but under the bad log in conditions of ISRO and with all the bots ksing everywhere, most people, who want to play the game, rather pick an alternative version or a private server, as it's so much easier to log in and play there. Therefore it's no surprise, that nobody on ISRO actually wants to play the game. They all left for better SRO versions, as playing on ISRO is just impossible.
SRO is not about reaching the lv. cap first, it's about the way to the cap, too bad that most people still don't realize this and probably will never realize it. You can have so much fun by having pts, just not on ISRO, as it takes you longer to log in there and finding a spot without bots, if they even exist, than actually having a pt.

agreed.



I don't really mind the sp and xp requirements all that much. It all depends on how you play the game. When I played, I mostly solo grinded, but also did parties sometimes. To me, solo or party grinding is pretty much the same on sungsungs, penons, or antelopes. You kill stuff, you get exp/gold/drops.

If all of the people who hate the sp/xp requirements just went to a different game that met their requirements, SRO would be left with the people who don't mind the requirements. You'd have an SRO with a LOT less cheaters (botters/plvlers) screaming their way to the top. You'd have a more even distribution of players across all the levels.

High prices aren't the fault of the game. It's the fault of the players, especially the gold buyers. People have more gold, prices go up.

Fully farmed to compete isn't a fault of the game, it's the players' fault. The game doesn't force you to farm, bot, power level, race your way to the top. If the players didn't try to cheat the system, you wouldn't have almost everyone capped. Since everyone is almost capped, everyone feels they need to be fully farmed to compete.

Meh... my post got a bit longer than I had planned.

And we need smaller maps.
10 people won't even meet eachother if they are grinding at the same mobs :/

Why do they need to meet eachother, to ks? When these people wanna party, one of them forms it in PT matching and other ones join if they want. The size of the map is perfectly fine imo. And it will get bigger by the legend.

They can join the party from separate towns, or other random areas of the map, but they need to meet each other to share the exp points when they start grinding, assuming it's an 8-man exp share party. However, once everyone has joined the party, you can see everyone on the map. Then it's just a matter of running to that location.

Size of the map is fine.

This poll shows that 44 people need to play more games, and or get out more.

Better buying skill manuals and they lvl with ur char lvl, no farming just spendin gold. Best option

So then you really won't have to work on your character. Just the person with the most cash in their bank account can buy the most gold and therefore buy the most skills? No thanks.

You should have to work for your skills. After all, they are SKILLS. The name implies you work on them.

So many of you guys bitching about the game.. but most of you still play it -.-..
Bitching about a free game -.-;

If you don't like the game .. then don't play it, simple.
Joymax can do whatever shit they want to the game, but it's your choice to continue to play or quit.

I don't like botters, and 24/7 crowded servers to but i still play it cause i enjoy the pvping and waring with friends.

lol @ the 45 people who voted yes

+1

I know that most of you won't agree with me, but SRO without bots will force people to be more social together and make more parties to level, and frankly with parties you can level up easily.
It is only gonna take from6-7 months with premium if you play premium time only, or a year without it, and you will be FF110.

People just use some ridicules ways to be full farmed, like farming for several months at Ongs then go with no gap, taking power level, or bot 24/7.

Anyway I am sure if there were more parties with more active community, you wouldn't have a problem to level, like Avalon guild/union on server Venus.
But as I said no one will agree with me, Joymax has mastered the art of killing legit communities, by exceeding the flow of our beloved gold bots the ultimate polite warriors, no matter how much you spam it or curse it, they will never insult you back.

I would say how could anyone not agree with you? Bots on SRO can't socialize because they are controlled by a computer program. If everyone actually played their character instead of botting, they would be at the keyboard and fully active in the game, able to socialize. It would make it much easier for everyone to find a party and have a much better time leveling up.

Instead, sadly, you have 3,485 botters running afk around the server, and 15 legit players running around trying to find a party... while each of the 15 probably don't know the other 14 even exist.

What a sad state of affairs for this potentially great game.

48 of 106 people would keep playing this game no matter what.
21 of them already quit from the game, or don't longer play the game
and the 37 rest probably will quit the game soon.

:o
