Heimdallr said in the maintenance thread that we still have another 2 and a half hours to go.

Yeah I'm just worried about the people who double click their icons and freak out and send in hundreds of tickets when they get the popup.

I guess I'm lucky in this department. :( I was able to patch fine... So, hopefully only half of those hundreds make it through. :)

I do believe Windows XP users will find it easiest to just do the manual patch. Those not having problems are probably running the game as they were before after setting all the admin privileges on Windows Vista/7. In any event please share your sorrows if you have problems patching!

The message you get when in VIP mode is very oddly worded. Wouldn't it be easier to just have it say, "VIP mode"?

On XP: Opening the regular RO client, ragnarok.exe would give me a failed to patch notice. I opened renewal client and let it patch then opened the reg rag client and let it patch up. No trouble

Now just waiting on the servers to be up..

It's Useless Culture Town #5. I'll be amazed if any population gain from it isn't lost in a week.

Lol well I see 700 on Ymir (during US peak hours that is). That picture basically is doubling that. I think they will have to advertise the game more so people actually know about this to double it. But I imagine they'll wait until all the kinks and bugs with VIP are fixed and more added VIP benefits (as the suggestion thread stickied is trying to ascertain) is added. Once things are smoothed out hopefully they'll do another promotion drive. Though I'm dissapointed they say they failed on avenues like CPMStar etc. that seems to do so well for other brands like Perfect World and many other MMOs. I see Google Ads and CPMStar ads on many game-related sites I visit advertising for those other MMOs but never Ragnarok Online.

P.S. It's sad in that picture Ygg isn't expected to do the same population as Valk despite being essentially the same server settings. Gravity has such low expectations, lol. Poor Ygg.

I really wish they would stop lolly gaging around and just make it all one server.

Hmmm "People will hate me for this statement." "Oh well"

That's roughly Valks 'real' off-peak population. The bot farmers were having issues with the packets being sent with the new patch/exe. Unfortunately they seem to have worked it out now, so expect the Valk population to go back up to 2500 again within a few hours.
