It's not new. It's the one with the weird messed up item description; ID#19453

Thanks bro! Hope this isn’t messed up

[Ucatolica]

the server it's becoming in too much p2p items, more than ever, first ocp's are like supportive gears to make some builds more playable, now every ocp is broken the game more and more.
Healthy game is one when you got important items IN game too, not just paying for them, now even god items are trhash, so there is no motivation to play it and if you check the market, no one is buying anything, more than ocp end game.
So, what is the point to play? grind something? battle in woe to what? to get what? why play or spent hours doing that if you can just swipe your credit card and be strongest character ever in 20 minutes.
That is why WOE dies, Party dies, instance dies, because there is nothing important to get in to or to do, even if you get some items from mvp or instances are way below OCP, even mvp cards and god items.
In the past WOE was super alive because all guilds want casttle to get god items, was supreme prize... just think about it.

Now i can see the following scenario:  some nostalgic players start to play, or new, and figure out he have to spent 100 usd on old game to get end game items instead of trying to get playing, and then he walk arround in prontera and just see p2p items in sell, then he goes to eden and see another mega expensive ocp items for sell, and no party arround, because new characters are actually big whales making a novice... So that means instaquit or 2 weeks gaming until lv 99 and quit.
Just my thought but ocp gears is an endless buckle with catastrophic ending to the server in mid term.

Tons of comments of the same, Chakri always talk about this for example i see a very good oportunity to revitalize the game with all people in home, but no, i see how now the server it's right to the abyss.

This is for me one of the problems with low population and quit, the second one is too much missing content/ bugds and third, absent GM's in game.

omg
really？ this box？
just take my money...

[jiggity]

I don't know about others but I won't be opening OCPs, I'm still very bitter about nature ring, something so rare should be fixed immediately or compensated. We should at least be able to swap it for hunter ring or even fafnir breath.

0.35% how many box to open?

People aren't going to stick around forever. Most of the player numbers were bots that got taken out. Besides, droves of people aren't going to come flocking to a game made decades ago. It's normal that the population decreases overtime.

 

But go ahead and continue on thinking you can make a change.

If the CMs continue on the same way, the server will go down soon, it's hard to disagree with what you say but seeing how they do nothing to change it is even worse.

Its sad to see blatantly that KRO only wants to milk the server before the end but is there even a way to get player numbers back up besides merging all the current existing RO except KRO and JRO?

 

The game is not worth them advertising anymore and only lives off the nostalgia of people who played 2 decade ago maybe its just naturally ending now.

and now you have 900 players, 400 merchs and 100 bots with macro, at least in the past you have 1k bots and 1k more players. In the past already you have some of most played internet games i cannot name.
And of course, if people like you, says "nothing will change, nobody gives a damn, they won't change anything" the server will die very soon.
When some stuffs was fixed or implemented was because people here in forums made pressure, for example Advanced Old Glast Heim.
Now people here in forums was angry for last ocp and that pressure made gm's increase the team and they promise bring more content.

My point is: More content doesn't matter if you keeping bring too broken items to the server too often.

Actually i'm afraid of that. To milk server all they can with ocp and boxes (seems to me they are doing that), and suddenly they will said
" Thanks for all this years our dear players we are closing doors" 
The question is, why Kro is still succefull in the country of most massive and recent online games and iro is dying?

Thank you for this.

I'll just say it. You don't know what you're talking about. You don't know what's better for this game because it's not about the items. It's the content and the age of the game. Do you honestly think people will choose this game over any other game out there on the market? <snip> There's practically zero marketing for this game. If this game needs anything it needs to be more modernized. Just take a look at the UI for example. It's so minimal and ugly; It's VERY dated. There's no mechanics. It's basically "bigger number = more better" gameplay. No raids. There isn't even separate PvP/PvE balancing.

Your sole argument is "OCP BOX BAD AND IT MAKE GAME BAD." So please, don't come at me telling me that this is the only reason the game is losing players. Go read a book and do something more productive.

RO stood the test of time still an awesome game to this day. I don't think it will shut down. (hopes not )

[ojamajoRED]

Okami no Kami Raiment (Okami Robe) is interesting. It's an another OCP item that is originally not RagCan or even package item in JRO but it's in game event item. (The other one is Star Eyepatch)

 

btw, the description writing on site is a bit wrong, compare with original JRO one, so let me fix it.

I saw this "moderation" in many comments that doesn't seems aggressive. Only people complaining about the lasts OCP, and the new on that are SO Broken (more than the old), with ridiculous rates. The server is following a very bad path. Is suspicious, and the develop is poor. The game in this server is only P2P dependent meta. You don't need big skills or something with broken pay 2 win stuff. Actually gears from new contents like 17.2, etc are unnecessary because you can get something 100% better paying 300 kafra points. And that's why in 2018, 2019 and a big part of 2020 you don't update big stuff, because OCP is the placebo.

• New Year's Event ends

 

Hello there, ty for patch notes again.

Some feedback about new year's event:

That was awesome! Variety was the key. You could open inkballs for some consumables, make food to recover hp/sp, get some hanbok costumes and do a costume + get a daily reward that could be Nut Cracker costume. Pretty good! Only suggestion I have: please, remove the hiding and teleport skill from octopus next time! hahaha

OMG that was so troll. When I did the quest with characters that couldnt reveal they always would hide and soon after teleport. I was like kkkkkkkkkk

Well, aside from the trolling, cool event with good rewards.

Farewell pretty yellow tiger costume, you'll be missed. I wouldnt mind about white tiger headgear, it was just a shock to lose the cute one for that. Well, a new head for dorams

Oh, I also suggest to make a visual hanbok look for the cats too! Oh, that would be amazing!

I'm glad all npcs, items and monsters were working fine

What even is the current population of KRO if anyone knows? 

 

KRO prob still lives off a combo of PC Bangs(self advertising) and nostalgia.

"Bigger number = more better" is why OCP made the game bad.
OCP Kills WoE.
OCP Kills play in party.
OCP Kills any new gears from new content.
OCP Kills new players (Nobody want to spent too much in this 20 years old game).
OCP Kills Mechanics, Combos from jobs etc, just 1 skill or 2 matters, and macro.
OCP Kills economy in game, all you can sell or buy from your merch is from Kafra.
OCP Kills Skill from players, Gear>>>>> Skill 1 key and kill'em all.

In the past was supermassive WoE, Loki's Realm, Afrikan, Load Your Cheats, etc. Everybody left when OCP start to came out.
Too late to regret, but at least if GM's have plans to don't let die the server, they shouldn't bring more OCP too often, i believe i'ts very bad idea bring more and more OCP and specially just after the controversial last OCP wich they are still fixing. Tons of players asking for fixing stuffs and... pummm OCP 34, time for OCP 34 and not for CC (i'm not even Gene but.. how many weeks asking for that).

Graphics not necessarily a problem

Kro i don't know last time i check they have 14k players online like in 2019.
But other Pservers i cannot name, actually have 3 to 5k players online and yes, they have anti bot system.

[zyndri]

Their developers are usually in-house too, a shame for WP, though its no fault of their own I assume
