AQ Worlds

[Corwin]

Just wondering if anyone else has been checking out the alpha test of AQ Worlds, the new game by Artix Entertainment, makers of such fine games as MechQuest, AdventureQuest, DragonFable, and Moglin Punting, it's their mmorpg release still in testing stages and currently only open to users w/ at least one upgraded account in one of their other three games(one time fee upgrade, it was worth it) if so was curious what ur char name might be so that maybe we can hang out during the next server test and kill stuff

OMG! They opened an mmorpg?! :D Where can I find it?

[Corwin]

it's at http://www.aqworlds.com (http://www.aqworlds.com/) however it is offline at the moment, but you can create a character, but w/o an upgraded account from one of their other games you cannot currently participate in the alpha test, there are supposed to be mini-tests over the weekend, and another big server test on Mon, ppl claim it's at 12p EST but we'll see what the staff over there says, look through the design notes on that page and the front page, that's where the info is, no idea when beta testing is open but so far it's fun even though there isn't a whole lot to do in it yet

Double posted. But anyway, I've never heard of it. I tend to avoid MMO's because of the monthly fee, and I avoid online mmo's, even freebies, because I like full fleshed games a bit more, like the origional three spyro games, as well as the stradegy conquest games such as Age Of Empires.

yes I know there are problems w/ having games that aren't fully fleshed out, but I'm kind of enjoying the experience w/ these right now, both their RPG games and this new MMO, b/c even w/ WoW and their monthly update, I would usually play for a week and be done w/ all the new content, at least this way there is new content every week, and I don't really feel like I'm playing catch up to everyone else, granted we will have to wait and see how AQ Worlds turns out, but it looks promising

Well 3 stress tests in alpha so far and the game is still amusing me, and new features to test and bugs to find and crashes to cause on Tues when the server goes back online for more testing, I just hope I can make it back from work in time, looks to be fun

oh that does sound fun. I'll have to try and remember to try and get on there >.>
