ArcheBlade Open Beta, It's Free-To-Play

If you enjoyed playing SMITE then you might also enjoy playing ArcheBlade. ArcheBlade is a Free-To-Play third-person fighting multiplayer online game. It's action-packed and it's extremely easy to play. Mouse button smashers will definitely get a kick out of this one.


ArcheBlade is currently in Open Beta and, that means, everyone can play it. All you have to do is download and install the game in STEAM or from the game's official website. Installing from STEAM is much easier and the game isn't very large. The entire game will only use less than 1 GB of your hard drive.

Action Oriented Gameplay

ArcheBlade is not a point-and-click game. It's an action-oriented game which uses both keyboard and mouse to move and execute attacks. If you are used to point-and-click games then ArcheBlade is different because it works more like a first-person-shooting game but only in third-person.

There is no auto-targeting in ArcheBlade and, that means, you'll have to target and attack your opponents manually by gauging their distance and your range correctly. Of course, they can also easily dodge or evade and even block your attacks and the same goes for you.

The action in ArcheBlade is very intense and the combo system kinda makes the fights more interesting.

Battle Modes

ArcheBlade has a few game modes or battle modes. For example, you can fight in a 3 versus 3 battle or you can choose 1 versus All or you can fight in a Capture and Hold type of game in a 7 versus 7 game.

Whatever the game or battle mode is, ArcheBlade will deliver a solid and intense action gaming experience to both newbies and experienced players.

ArcheBlade Is Free-To-Play

Playing ArcheBlade won't cost you anything (except maybe your time). It's Free-To-Play and you can easily download and install it from STEAM. Remember, you will need STEAM to download, install and play ArcheBlade. So, if you don't have STEAM installed then you must install it first before ArcheBlade.

ArcheBlade is a very exciting game to play. It's free and it's packed with intense action just waiting for you to set it free. So, if you like action in your games then you should try out ArcheBlade.

Wizardry Online, Open Beta Is Here

Wizardry Online is the MMO version of the classic Wizardry dungeon crawler RPG series. It died a decade ago in the US but it is still very popular in Japan where it continued to get new releases. They even have an online multiplayer version of the game called Wizardry Online.

Wizardry Online Open Beta
(Wizardry Online Open Beta)

Fortunately, Sony Online Entertainment took Wizardry Online from Japan and opened up an English server. Currently, Wizardry Online is in Open Beta and, to play the game, simply create a new Station ID, download the game's launcher and install it. After installing the launcher, run it and it will download and install the rest of the game.

In Wizardry Online, you will get to create your character from five races. These races are Human, Elf, Porkul, Dwarf and Gnome. You will also get to choose from four character classes and these are Fighter, Priest, Mage and Thief. From there, you will get to choose or customize your character further like choosing your character's hair, face, etc.

Bonus points for your character's attributes are randomly assigned.

Characters in Wizardry Online have that anime-look and feel because this game is basically just a port of a Japanese game. If you are not into anime-looking characters then you might not enjoy playing Wizardry Online.

One of Wizardry Online's controversial feature is Permadeath. Yes, your character can die permanently in this game. It sounds hardcore, right? Well, not entirely because your soul lives on and, because all your characters share the same soul, you can continue your adventure as a new character.

Unlike other dungeon based multiplayer online RPGs, the dungeons in Wizardry Online are not instanced. That means, you'll have to share all the dungeons with other players.

Another feature that is considered hardcore by other gamers is the fact that PvP or player-versus-player is active everywhere. That means, any player can kill any player any time and any where. Of course, there are consequences in killing and stealing from other players but are those consequences bad enough to deter players from killing each other?

Anyway, if you are a fan of the old Wizardry RPG series then why not give Wizardry Online a try. It's Free-To-Play and it will only take you a few minutes to a couple of hours to install the game.

Ragnarok Online 2 SEA Open Beta Launches On January 3, 2013

The first English server of Ragnarok Online 2 was supposed to launch its Open Beta period last December 27, 2012 but that launch never happened. Well, it kinda did for a brief moment but it was eventually shutdown because the server was not able to handle the volume of players who tried to login and play the game.

Ragnarok Online 2
(Ragnarok Online 2 SEA for Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam only.)

Obviously, the publisher was not prepared to handle that many users at once which is very common with most MMORPG launches. Hopefully, the Open Beta launch tomorrow will not have the same problems as before. If not then it will disappoint a lot of players worldwide (or NOT).

Ragnarok Online 2 is the sequel to Ragnarok Online but, unlike the original, Ragnarok Online 2 or RO2 is now in 3D. The sad thing about this Open Beta Launch is the fact that players from outside Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam will have no access to the game. It sucks but it has something to do with licensing which means the SEA server of RO2 is only for SEA players.

According to some post in the official RO2 Sea forum, North America and the Philippines will have their own English server of RO2 in the first quarter of 2013.

Anyway, with only four countries having access to the game, the amount of traffic the game server will get will not be the same as before. Of course, everyone from all over can still try to login to their accounts. If they can login then good for them. If not then they'll just have to wait for their own server of RO2 to serve their country or region.

Trouble With RaiderZ Founder's Pack And Early Access

The Open Beta of RaiderZ starts on October 24, 2012 but those who bought a Founder's Pack have Early Access to the game which is kinda like an extra perk for buying a Founder's Pack. Early Access starts earlier than the actual Open Beta launch. In fact, it already started but some players who bought a Founder's Pack are having difficulties logging in.

RaiderZ Founder's Pack
(RaiderZ Founder's Pack)

This is not really a problem because they could just wait for the actual Open Beta launch of the game. Unfortunately, there are players who bought a Founders Pack, not because of the items but, because of the Early Access and if they can't login to play after paying for the privilege then they just wasted their money.

Is this some kind of scam? In a way, it is because the publisher advertised something like getting an Early Access to the game if players buy this and that and, when players bought it, they didn't get to enjoy it because they couldn't login to the game. Basically, the publisher took the players' money but didn't deliver the goods and that sounds like a scam.

Unfortunately, those players who bought a Founder's Pack because of the Early Access can't do anything except wait for the publisher to resolve the problem on their end. The problem with waiting is, these players are slowly losing what they paid for and that's Early Access to the game. If it takes the publisher a day to fix or resolve this problem then everyone who bought a Founder's Pack because of the Early Access won't get nor enjoy what they paid for.

RaiderZ Founder's Pack
(RaiderZ Founder's Pack Early Access Problem)

Seriously, some of these players have no interest in the Founder's Pack but they still spent $9.99 USD for it because of the advertised guaranteed Early Access. Early Access is now LIVE but many of these players are not enjoying or getting what they paid for. This will reflect badly on the publisher and it will discourage these players from purchasing anything from them again.

Hopefully, this problem with the Early Access gets resolved soon because, if not then the number of raging Early Access buyers will only increase. Obviously, the hours lost are gone for good since no one can turn back time but, as a sign of good faith, the publisher should, at least, offer some kind of compensation specially when these players paid good money for it.

For now, those who are thinking of buying a Founder's Pack to get Early Access should probably think it over carefully. As you can see, paying good money for Early Access to RaiderZ will not guarantee you access at all. You will only lose your hard earn cash in the process.

RaiderZ Stress Test Is Live

Perfect World Entertainment's latest Free-To-Play MMORPG RaiderZ is currently undergoing a Stress Test right now. This Stress Test started on October 12, 2012 and it will end on October 15, 2012. If you are eager to get your hands on RaiderZ now then login to your PWE account and download the Stress Test client. Install it and start playing RaiderZ even if it's only for a few days.

RaiderZ
(RaiderZ)

Obviously, the purpose of the Stress Test is to stress the server to the point of crashing it. This will help the developer and publisher determine the best server setup for RaiderZ. It will also prepare them when Open Beta comes because if it doesn't then this Stress Test Event would be all for nothing. He he he!

Also, if you reach Level 10 while playing in this Stress Test event then you'll be rewarded with a special prize when Open Beta starts. This is a very easy prize to get because getting to Level 10 in RaiderZ is a piece of cake. It will only take you a couple of hours of playing to reach Level 10. Just go through all the quest to receive all the experience points you'll need to level up quickly.

If you bought a founder's pack then you'll be able to try out and use your Black Arrod Mount and all the other items included in the pack. You'll get them again when Open Beta starts because characters in this Stress Test will be wiped at the end of the event. Remember, this is not yet Open Beta. It's just a Stress Test to test the stability of the server.
Kabalyero in RaiderZ Stress Test Server
(Kabalyero in RaiderZ Stress Test Server)

RaiderZ is dubbed as a monster hunting action-oriented fantasy mmorpg but aren't all mmorpgs all about hunting and killing monsters? Anyway, if you haven't tried it they try it now and decide whether you'll play it or not when Open Beta starts.

Universal Monsters Online, Browser Based MOBA, Open Beta

Forget about League Of Legends or even DOTA 2 because Universal Monsters Online is here and it's currently in Open Beta. Universal Monsters Online is a new browser-based multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) published by Bigpoint and it's Free-To-Play.
Frankenstein's Monsters, UMO
(Frankenstein's Monsters, UMO)

In Universal Monsters Online you'll take control and play as your favorite monsters from Universal Studios. These monsters include Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, Wolf Man, The Mummy, Invisible Man, Phantom of the Opera, Bride of Frankenstein and others.

Universal Monsters Online plays very much like your favorite MOBA but with some differences. For example, your base or your HQ doesn't produce creeps or, in this game's case, zombies. They appear after killing an opponent player's monster. These zombies will help you destroy your opponent's buildings, turrets, enemy monsters and others.

The game is played by two teams of monsters competing in matches where the objective is to destroy the other team's base or HQ and take the Damsel. Honestly, the Damsel feels more like a Sacrifice and two teams of monsters are competing for her blood. A sacrifice makes more sense than a damsel in distress. Besides, why would a group of monsters save a Damsel?
Taking the Damsel To Your HQ
(Taking the Damsel To Your HQ)

Leveling-up your monster in the match is very important because it'll become stronger. To level-up your monster, all you have to do is destroy your opponent's buildings, kill your opponents civilians and, of course, kill your opponent's monsters. Killing those trolls that wander around the map will also help level-up your monster.

Victory in Universal Monsters Online relies on how fast you can make your monster stronger than your opponent's monster. If the level gap between your monster and your opponent's monster becomes too large then there's nothing more you can do except accept your defeat.

Two Teams Of Monsters Fight To Win
(Two Teams Of Monsters Fight To Take The Damsel)

The graphics of Universal Monsters Online is very nice specially in high settings. Fortunately, the game still looks good even at lower settings. Also, playing in lower graphics setting will give you more framerate specially during encounters with your opponent's monster.

Overall, the game is fun to play and it's easy enough for new players to enjoy. Check it out and, who knows, you might enjoy it too.

By the way, like most MOBA games, Universal Monsters Online also has players leaving or quitting during a match. It sucks because it gives the other team a huge advantage. If you are going to play then play till the end.

Offensive Combat, New Browser Based FPS And It's FREE

Heads-up FPS fans. Offensive Combat is a new browser-based online multiplayer FPS game from U4iA Games and it's Free-To-Play. The game is already in Open Beta and it's just waiting for you to play it. Of course, you'll need an account to play the game but creating an account is very simple. You can sign-in using your Facebook, Twitter or Google account. If you don't want to use any of those then you can also create a new U4iA account and use it to play the game.

Offensive Combat
(Offensive Combat)

Offensive Combat offers a lot of ways to customize your playing experience. You can customize your character, your loadouts and you can even choose your PWNs. PWNs are like taunts and you can do them after each kill but you must be close enough to your kills to PWN them. Successfully PWNing your kills will give some extra rewards.

Playing the game is very simple. You aim with your mouse, shoot with your left-mouse button and move using your ASWD keys. Also, you hold the shift key to run, ctrl key to crouch and right-mouse button to aim-down-sight. If you want to jump then all you have to do is tap the spacebar key and if you want to throw a grenade then just simply tap the E key.

The game itself is pretty fast-paced and you'll find yourself shooting or getting shot at all the time. Camping won't do you any good in Offensive Combat. You either move or die where you stand. Besides, the radar will always show you where the action is. Also, if you are killed then you can place a beacon on the player that killed you. This beacon will show you where this player is all the time.

PWNED
(PWN'D)

The graphics of the game is pretty nice even at low settings. The items, weapons, characters and environment of the game may look cartoonish but the game itself is obviously not for babies. Overall the game is pretty fun to play and, because it's browser based, the game is more accessible allowing for more players to kill and PWN in-game.

So, if you are a fan of first-person-shooters then you must definitely try out Offensive Combat. Warning, because of its offensive nature, onion-skinned players and those with poor constitution should stay away from it.

Ghost Recon Online Open Beta, Go Get Your Shooting Fix

Well, Ghost Recon Online is now in Open Beta and everyone can now download, install and play the game for FREE. It's a tactical third-person shooter with emphasis on TEAM PLAY. Of course, individual skills will still have a huge impact on the matches because a Team of skilled players will always have an advantage against a Team made up of players with lesser skills.

Ghost Recon Online(Image Credit: Ghost Recon Online)

Ghost Recon Online will have three classes available to players to choose from. The three classes are Assault, Specialist and Recon and each one will have different ways of providing offensive and defensive support for the team. The combination of all three classes in a team and how they are used can determine victory or defeat.

Ghost Recon Online is Free-To-Play

As a Free-To-Play game, players of Ghost Recon Online will have full access to the game. Anyone can download, install and play it without spending anything. All you need is a free Uplay account to play the game. If you don't have a Uplay account yet then create one. It will only take you a couple of minutes.

Full access means, players will have access to all classes, game modes, weapons, armors and modifications but new equipments, items and abilities are locked by level. This means, you'll have to play the game and gain the necessary levels to unlock them. This is where the use of real cash comes in because you can unlock them early by spending real cash but this is optional.

Ghost Recon Online(Image Credit: Ghost Recon Online)

Ghost Recon Online has a good level of weapon and armor customization by using weapon attachments and armor inserts. These attachments and inserts will greatly enhance your character's combat abilities or performance and you'll get access to them by gaining levels. It will also unlock new weapons and equipment that will make your soldier or character stronger.

All of these and more are available to you for FREE! Simply go to the official website of Ghost Recon Online, create a new account, download, install and play the game.

Ghost Recon Online's total download size is less than 2GB. If you have a slow internet connection then it might take you a few hours to finish downloading it. I'm currently downloading it and I'm at 10% already. It will take me a couple of hours, at least, to finish downloading it.

C9, Continent of the Ninth Seal, Open Beta

C9 or Continent of the Ninth Seal is a fantasy themed action-oriented Online Multiplayer RPG. The game is published by Webzen and it's Free-To-Play. You can download the installer from the official website. Just make sure you have enough free space for it because the size of the installer is around 4.6 GB. It took me a while to download all of it but if you have a fast internet connection then it will only take you a few minutes.

C9, Continent of the Ninth Seal
(C9, Continent of the Ninth Seal)

As an action-oriented Online Multiplayer RPG, C9 is somewhat similar to Dragon Nest and Vindictus. All dungeons or maps or stages in C9 are instanced. As far as I know, C9 has no open world. You can only explore the towns and the dungeons or stages. Without an open world, C9, like Dragon Nest and Vindictus, is not a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game (MMORPG) because there is nothing massive about it.

C9 will let you choose and play one of four character classes. These are the Fighter, Hunter, Shaman and Witchblade. You can customize them to your liking but you won't be able to choose or change your character's gender. Character classes in C9 are gender locked.

If you want a male character then you can choose between the Fighter and the Hunter. If you want a female character then your choices are the Shaman and the Witchblade. You can't have a female Fighter nor a male Shaman. If gender selection is a big deal for you then I don't think you'll be able to enjoy this game.

C9, Continent of the Ninth Seal
(C9, Continent of the Ninth Seal)

The graphics of C9 looks dated but it's still pretty good for a Free-To-Play game. If you are having problems with lag or low FPS then simply switch your video settings to low and you'll be fine.

Controlling or moving your character in C9 is also pretty simple because it uses the standard ASWD keys. Skills are executed either by pressing a hot key or by mouse buttons and keyboard keys combos. It may sound complex but it's really very easy to do. Also, chaining skills will result to massive combos.

C9 has all the standard features found in any Online Multiplayer RPG like PvP, Party System, Guild System, Crafting, Quests, Mail System, Auction House, Mentor System, etc. Among these features, I find the Intrusion System fun. As the name implies, Intrusion will allow you to intrude in another player's dungeon or stage. You must then kill the player or players in the dungeon to complete your intrusion.

The combat in C9 is rather repetitive but if you find hacking and slashing through dungeons with hordes of monsters fun then you should at least give C9 a try. The game has lots of action. Just watch your Combo counter because you might see yourself executing extremely high Combo numbers.

Anyway, C9 is currently in Open Beta. Playing the game during this period will reward you with Bonus Experience Points or XP. This will make your character level-up faster. See if you can reach Level 50 before Open Beta ends.

Check out the trailer below.
