What happens in 3rd Street stays in 3rd Street.

Just played for like 15 minutes this is pretty great and completely filling my chinagame void. I kept getting disconnected but I'm guessing that's just open beta. Leveling is so fast.

We can now have daily feasts. These cost guild funds and can be once a day or a 5 dollar item from the cash shop and can be done three more times for each item.

These are held in the guild base plaza. If you sit down you get a 1 hour buff that spits experience at you and doesn't go away if you log or die.

You can also gather food nearby and hand them in to the npcs walking around. The food piles have a normal and rare drop from each of them and the rare drops are worth more.

Each time you turn food in you get a 1 minute buff where you can not turn more food in. Soon as that goes away you can do this again.

These feasts last 30 minutes and can be done when ever.

Other people not in the guild might show up or crash it, or kill us during it.
You can also turn in some numbers of leftovers up at the logistics area after, right? What did that get you again?

You've got guts! Come to my village, I'll buy you lunch.
Couple of questions, mostly usability related:

My character moves like a slug, even in the so-called "run" mode. How do I move faster?

Why won't FRAPS show FPS for this game and how do I make it so it will? It was a problem in Neverwinter too, so it seems like it might have something to do with the ARC client.

How do I get a mouse cursor so I can click UI elements (like quest destinations) without having to open some other random window?

You are in action mode? Hit ctrl. This gives you a cursor back.

For running, click skills, look at the utility tab, and you should see some sprints and dashes there. You can run with those or use the horse you get at like level 5.

You wont be able to move about as fast in swordsman as you can in AoW. Most of the movement skills are similar between the two (although a few seem to be missing or limited to cutscenes) but you get noticeably less stamina in swordsman. I still personally like it but it will be a noticeable difference if you played wushu recently.

I don't know if certain schools get more movement speedups or options yet, but it's still not bad with the speed up and horses.

Overall im really digging the combat and enjoying myself. Swordsman seems to still have that chinagame kookiness while being a lot more accessible and easier to pick up. Also it can't be said enough that you have to give the game a chance until you get your second set at 20, it opens up much more at that point.

Where in the timeline in respect to the lore source does this game take place? Is it after or during the book, because certain events (such as Sun and Moon sect being friendly with the "righteous" schools) shouldn't have taken place yet, while other events haven't happened yet, such as Linghu Chong being kicked out of the Splendor School, since he named himself as senior-most disciple of the school.

I think 'based on' is fairly loosely intended. Also trying to wrap your head around chinagame's plotline is probably a pointless endeavor.

I'm doing my best but this character creator isn't all powerful. Any critiques before I finalize Imbeautiful?

So if you buy the recustomization item on the cash shop, you gain a bunch of new options when you re-do your appearance. Facial tattoos, eye color, a row and a half of new beards. For example:

Is this an action-combat system with active blocking and dodging like in TERA or Neverwinter, or is it old-school point'n click ?

Is there any way to play this game without downloading their DRM/spyware client? I'm really getting tired of booting into another gaming bloatware mandatory active service filled partition every time I want to play video games. The Chinese version of the game has no such obnoxious software/windows services installed.

e: I'd like to thank all the assholes who actively download this stuff and don't care that 20% of their running windows services are monitoring their activity and selling it to marketers. There's no such thing as a free lunch and people need to read the EULA.

Genuinely surprised there isn't a torrent out there but if the executable can't be hacked to run without the ARC then we are poo poo out of luck.

Wow, paranoid much? Chill out and play chinagame, man. I'm pretty sure that, even with Arc, this poo poo is safer than Age of Wushu ever was.

People say bigger is better.

But for the first time in my life, I think I've gone too far.
Is this "Jade Mountain" title a closed beta reward or something? I got the code in my email (came with a horse, too), but "jade mountain" gets no results in a forum search.

Is that in addition to the regular bag you open every 10 levels?

I'm enjoying this game and trying out a few different classes. I was thinking about buying the $10 pack, but wondering if the items are given to all characters on an account. I see that it says one leveling pack per account, but does the stuff like the goatskin bag go to all characters? Also, Is the mount and ring in the $60 pack worth it at all? It looks like the $60 pack does not contain the Goatskin bag, which seems to be the most important part of the $10 pack.
