Archeage Sep 12 Headstart |Sep 16 Launch
 

Any Graalians going to be playing? I'm gonna make a guild, all are welcome. More info on what server later. All I have to say for now is that we will be playing on NA servers, on the western continent. Once Auroria opens, we plan to build a castle on the Northern continent.



As someone who has played the alpha, I can safely saw that (almost) everything in that trailer is accurate of gameplay. The siege battles, the ship battles, the kraken, gliders, all of that is in game footage, not a cinematic. It's also missing information regarding player housing and farms. Houses are placed on the actual map you play in, not some instanced void like in Graal or most MMOs. Those who have played Graal Kingdoms know what I mean by housing on the map. Farms also provide a ton of use, and certain plants grow better depending on the location. Also, one thing that might not have been clear with the underwater swimming is that the players were hunting for deep sea treasure, which is brought to the surface using a baloon-like item.

The only thing isn't accurate is that there's no marriage system. While such a thing would be possible via roleplay, there's no actual system for it(outside of the family system).

Game will be f2p. a $50 founders pack gets you access to the headstart.

EDIT: OK guys, We're the Western Trade Federation, We're rolling on the North American server Naima, and we're on the western continent. So pick a Nuian or Elf if you wanna be on the same continent as us.

I at least HOPE I can play. My computer is still running it's cruddy intel integrated graphics that's weak and outdated even for an intel chip.

Also, if I do get the chance to play.... Ima be a pirate :D

You can test out how it runs when the OBT starts this thursday and lasts 4 days. As for the intel graphics, you can probably play on lowest settings. my $400 laptop that's 3 years old with integrated graphics can play on lowest settings. It's a little laggy, but playable.

If the laptop is newer than mine, you may be able to turn up a few settings like textures and view distance, and it'll look pretty good, not amazing but good.

I'll be there during head-start, trying to get the choicest spot for my house! I'll probably be an elf.

It's a desktop lol. And were not even talking HD series intel. Mine is a Q45.

Looks super fun

I'm on alpha already! It's a great game, I'll be sure to join you. What class do you play? Or what 3 skill sets do you pick.

I'm building a PC just for this game!!!

Anyone Guild name suggestions? Keep in mind there be more people in the guild than just graalians. I'm thinking something like ____ empire.

This is sick. I'll join your guild Skill this sounds a hell of a lot funner than Graal.

Still deciding what I want for launch. Player a tanky healer build in alpha, but I'll probably be trying something new. I know I want shadowplay as one of my classes so that I can stealth when I turn in trade packs.

I think I'll go straight dps with magic, like I do in every mmo haha

Imma be on the headstart, my username will obviously resemble my Graal name too, so I'll give you the details once I'm in.

And for my class, I think I'll try for a Magic Blademaster, or perhaps a magical archer for a green arrow combat feel.

OK guys, We're the Western Trade Federation, We're rolling on the North American server Naima, and we're on the western continent. So pick a Nuian or Elf if you wanna be on the same continent as us.

Ok so the western continent has the European style right
