Lunia - When RPGs and Beat 'em Ups had a baby - Games

[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/36/Lunia.PNG[/img] [quote]Lunia: Record of Lunia War (often referred to simply as Lunia) is a pseudo-3D, isometric Massive Multiplayer online role-playing game developed by Korean company allm , and published in North America by ijji, in Europe by OGPlanet, in Taiwan by Chinese Gamer, in South Korea by Nexon and in Brazil by Level Up! Games. Lunia's global release was being run by CDC Games USA at their 12FootTall game portal, but has since been moved to ijji. The game aims to offer a new style of game play differing from most MMORPGs by mixing elements of action games and RPGs together.[/quote] [b]Gameplay[/b] The gameplay is like what would happen if you took an MMORPG, let's say World of Warcraft, and combined it with a beat 'em up. (you can fill in the example here). It has an insane amount of combos, 17 different characters all with their own appearance and skill sets, a skill selection system and more. The game is split into 7 episodes, each with 10 stages. When you're done with that, you then can play through it in legend mode, where the enemies are much tougher, and THEN play Myth mode, which takes place after the game. And there's PVP. Yeah, it's pretty deep. [b]Characters[/b] I don't know too much about this forum's community yet, but I think this is where most people will start dismissing the game because of its artstyle. Don't. Because this game has 17 characters, I'll only go through the first 4 you''ll likely come across.

Fun game, ijji is gay though, I quit after 3 days due to lags.

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;30146638]Fun game, ijji is gay though, I quit after 3 days due to lags.[/QUOTE] I want to kill the person who thought REACTOR was a good way to distribute their games. IT ISN'T. Luckily Europe version is coming back this summer so there will be a different host there.

I remember playing this ages ago, it was unplayable due to lag.

[QUOTE=Hruhf;30201801]I remember playing this ages ago, it was unplayable due to lag.[/QUOTE] Ijji fucks you over if you live anywhere that isn't America. It's been OK for me and I live away from it, but sometimes lag spikes are annoying, especially when I'm just stuck in place. It must be fucking impossible trying to play it from Australia.

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;30146638]Fun game, ijji is gay though, I quit after 3 days due to lags.[/QUOTE] Ijji was gay ever since they canceled Kwonho, it was a Tekken-style fighter game but then PvP

[QUOTE=MrParalegal;30218947]Ijji was gay ever since they canceled Kwonho, it was a Tekken-style fighter game but then PvP[/QUOTE] And then decided to pump more money into Solder Front then they needed to when they already had a better FPS. (A.V.A)

I think that ijji shouldn't have dropped Gunsters or some shit. It was awesome.

I play this as a Slime, have a Dainn backup, I suck...One of the new overpowered characters 61k damage, me 6k in an episode 2 stage D:

I miss Kwonho :smith:

If you were put off this game by the ijji ownership, well, I have some good news for you. [quote]Hello Lunians, Starting June 23, 2011 Allm will take over the Lunia services and we will be channeling the game at ijji.com. We have prepared some facts to answer any questions that may arise from this situation: 1) Service Ownership change from NHN USA to Allm - As of June 23rd, 2011, the Lunia service will be operated by Allm. Allm will be responsible for Content Updates, Event Operations, Cash Item Updates, Community Operations, and Customer Support except for ijji Account and G Coin issues. 2) Your game data is safe - Your game data will be 100% preserved, including your game play history, items, guild, friends, etc. - The only change necessary is that you will need to agree to Allm's Lunia Terms of Service since Allm will be the new service provider for Lunia. You will be able to see their Terms of Service when you click the 'Game Start' button on the Lunia Reactor page. 3) Game Installation - You should download the new Lunia client file even though you already have Lunia installed on your PC. - After the service change, your old Lunia game files will not work and you MUST install the new Lunia client file for it to work properly. The new Lunia installer will contain the new build so it will not be necessary to download any patch files once you have installed the new Lunia client. 4) G Coin to L G Coin - In order to purchase Lunia items you will now need to exchange your G Coin for L Coin (Allm's Lunia currency). Once you have exchanged for the L Coin you will be able to make purchases from Lunia's item shop. 5) Closing Lunia Forums - ijji Lunia forums will be closed on July 1st and you will be able to use Allm's Facebook for the community 6) Closing ijji Lunia Facebook / GM JuJu Facebook - Both the ijji Lunia and GM JuJu Facebook will be closed on 6/23/2011. A new Facebook [url]http://www.facebook.com/LuniaGlobal[/url] has been provided for you and it's hosted by Allm. Get the latest info on Lunia: [url]http://www.facebook.com/LuniaGlobal[/url] 7) Customer Support - Allm's CS team will support any Lunia related incidents that are not related to ijji.com account or G Coin issues. - To access this new customer support, submit your tickets through the 'Help' menu on the Lunia site. Thank you for all of your years of loyalty, the fun times, and the cherished memories as our Lunia ijji community. We wish you all well and know Allm will provide an exceptionally efficient and helpful service![/quote] I wonder how a Korean company will host the American version of the game. I'm still waiting for my Europe one. :/ And FINALLY no god damn Iris eye rape for REACTOR.
