Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that

Wulin is actually fun and not filled with botters and hackers. Server population is good after they merged them all into one. 4th inner patch hits at the end of the month.

There's no chance of them not flooding the game with the ridiculous cash sets though which is where wushu went to poo poo.

Considering the months and months of extra mountain man REs that Wulin had, cash shop sets are the least of the problems.

Man, this was depressing. I checked out the OP, downloaded the game, got really excited at the combat system and psyched for a decent new MMO, and then came back to read the rest of the thread. I wish I'd tried this out a year ago.

It is probably for the best. Goons shouldn't let goons play chinagame.

Yet another violation of regulation 1910 subpart D.
That first month and a half of chinagame was truly something special. I don't think there will ever be another game quite like it.

One of my best memories was the fun in roaming the countryside of suzhou in a swarm with a hundred other goons with sticks and rags as we searched for a random quest lady's poorly translated heirloom item because her text claimed it to be worth 10 ding (to be used in our glorious goonmunism program), killing anyone and everyone we saw and repeatedly scrapping with muderizing the elite pvp personas that cockily tried to drive us off. The huge gear discrepency didn't even matter because there were just so many of us; we were, at once, a furiously clipping mass of peasantry, descending upon all in our way like locusts upon a field, our numbers fading in and out of existence as our victims' clients struggled to render us all.

I also remember the pro elite pvp counter for our sheer numbers was to place monster bounties on individual members, which would cause us to fall upon each other and immediately murder the guy because drat 150 liang who doesn't want that!

Best part of that was going to the jail to laugh at the poor guy that got nailed with the bounty.

Yeah the pvp was better than what most MMOs have, and the game was well designed to revolve around pvp for almost everything, which is stellar. Most new MMOs copy WoW which copied EQ and both were really pretty terrible for pvp from balance issues to only ever having consensual pvp. If not for the awful translation and support (snail's fault), ridiculous power creep (f2p games in general), and their really janky ping weirdness and autoparry, I might still be playing.

Man gently caress autoparry. Without that, all the Viets would've been hosed so hard in every aspect of the game that they already weren't.

It was amazing that no actual Viet player could do poo poo in Mt Hua competition because of their awful ping so they just lent their account to a US player :cawg:

Man Jayen was abusing that poo poo for months and then when called out on it he told everyone "you can't follow people in the hua arenas" to which Leffe took a screenshot to prove him wrong. Was a good time.
