Boy I sure would love to be able to play the game, at least just to idle off the last 22 minutes of my jail sentence.
But the gods have decided "Fuck you kid you're not getting in our game" and disconnect me within a minute of me logging in EVERY TIME

Another day another story.
My day starts out with a bit of questing but naturally you always get some guy who thinks he can jump you so you have to teach them a lesson.

Me an Borys found a secret farm and whilst harvesting it the owner turned up and was not happy. This did end up getting us enough crime points to be summoned to court once dead.

Tried to do a sea trade run but got jumped by a guild of level 50 people from the enemy faction. On my jury was a member of the Crimson Order who decided to convince the others I was deserving of the max sentence. Once I got out you can just tell everyone goes afk whilst in prison.

Whilst at the Crescent Throne we noticed some guy pulled his clipper all the way into the castle this must of taken him a while.

Now rowboats are completely helpless when it comes to pulling them they barely even slow you down so messing with a few rowboat peasants is always fun.

When going down waterfalls be wary of rocks blocking your fall. Also Borys knows how to sail a rowboat without any ores.

Now onto I guess you could call the slow adventure. Jonoporter got a vehicle and we tried to hop on for a lift all the way down south. Everyone kept falling off.
[t]http://i.imgur.com/Xvs5dde.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/JJGXA4K.jpg[/t]
Some guild decided it would be fun to block the road. This caused us to try and get around but our vehicle ended up getting stuck. After 7 minutes Jonoporter could use an ability called riders escape (or something like that) and it set the vehicle free.

We got into Sanddeep territory and I had the realization that it would be far quicker to ditch this tractor and sail my boat the rest of the way. I was not sure if I would beat them.

I beat them there by quite a while and Pallaes tried to use his rowboat and I never leave a man behind so I went back for him and helped him drop off his trade pack and Jonoporter still had not arrived because he got the tractor stuck again.

Jonoporter got there in the end but I don't plan on joining the tractor team any time soon it was a nightmare.

No :(
I'm almost turned off from ArcheAge simply because they keep constantly emailing me about beta events starting and ending and upcoming events and changes, and I'm not even invited to them. Like I give a shit then?
The game is obviously fucking toying with me now. It'll let me get in a good 5 minutes of game time then say "Fuck you" and disconnect me. WTF
The guy that found the person's tree farm I was helping planted his own tree farm, and I found it. :v: he has 500 trees as well
Got an invite for the next Beta event again, aswell.
Shit's gonna be cash
So Trion broke the fucking game.
GG Trion.
Now fucking fix it
I fucked up trying to swap my alpha download from my HDD to my SSD and had to repatch. Finally get in and all the NPC's are gone.
On a second note, anyone tried out skull knight? Seems cool on paper but I haven't leveled up enough to understand how you can use a caster type class with plate armor and a shield. My star spell from occult is hitting for like 2 damage a tick.

The star spell is entirely magic damage based, it has a base damage of like 1. You really really need a magic damage weapon if you want to use Mana Stars, I think it has a 50% scaling.
If you're doing a melee based character skip mana stars it's a waste of a skill point.
I'm doing a Bloodreaver ATM (Battlerage, Auramancy, Occultism) and jumping right to Occultism's AoE attack works best.
I charge in (Battlerage), drop the first two Auramancy spells (Can't remember the name), then if it's a group of 2+ around me I drop whirlwind and the occultism AoE
Kills shit fast
From what I was reading, skull knight was a great tank build that is viable in pvp.
I appreciate the feedback though, it is difficult to find updated threads since a few of the changes made, video and guide was from a korean dude at arche-base.com.
Might just roll darkrunner in the mean time. Seems pretty straight forward.
Question: do the PKers camping trade routes have anything to lose from doing so or are the guys carrying trade packs the only ones risking anything?

Just an update it turns out it was not their fault. Comcast made changes to how they send traffic so when it reaches Trion's servers it fucks with all other ISP traffic that tries to enter. That is why the game was stuttering.
Comcast don't appear to want to change their mistake so the dev's are having to change their network code so Comcast data does not affect other ISP data.
Also a patch was released and servers are up but closed whilst they test they work for sure before opening them up to the public.
Get your keys for beta if you didn't get invited:

I really really really want to like this game, I also have no problem paying for patron status but it just feels too much Asiatic / Eastern MMO...
The models, the clunkiness of the engine and the lack of polish just turn me off ;(
What can I do?

I tabbed out of this game once while playing yesterday, then this happened:

My clothes just disappeared, but they came back after quickly taking off my pants and putting them back on.
Fuck it I bought the Archeum pack, let's hope I enjoy the game!
Also I'm hoping my latency from EU to the alpha server (na) is not too bad!
The rest of you don't understand. Username and I tasted something wonderful, and it's been cruelly ripped away from us, leaving us with a mere husk of that which was.

How do you apply for the beta, anyways?
You guys are making this look like a blast!
Woo! I got a clipper design! Now to try to track down a plot of land to get the resources to actually build it.
