FMMORPG-Free MMORPG, Free MMO, Free Online Game, Free RPG, Chinese MMORPG, China MMORPG…

Since the Game Perfect World and Qworld, Perfect World Ltd. is well known in South Asia. Many USA players would bear the lag and would take the risk to play the PH version. Finally they released the Peferect World International.

Let us take a look at their latest product, an upgraded version of Q-world Online, which is now open beta in mainland China: Kou Dai Xi You, temperilay we name it: Pocket WJ.

Character Sheet

Nothing creative, just like the normal products from Perfect world, there are three races you can choose: Human, God and Devel. In each race, you can choose 6 classes. Different from other games by Perfect World, there will be a pet born with you. You can input your birthday when creating your character.

First Log in

When you first log in the game, if you play Phoenix Dynasty Online, you will have ideas what it is - Five Element System. In this game, designers "borrowed" a lot of concepts from other Chinese MMORPG. The designers also considered the convienence for the newbies and  want the players to read the basic information when logged in. But it’s really hard to find "X" button and I doubt if players will read it since most of us just click the "X" button and continue the training.

Training

We have just completed first couple of levels and training seems to be easy. Just Talk to the NPC who has something on  the top of their head and follow the quest. Since they have GPS system, just click the NPC in green name in quest pannel and you will go to find the guy easily.

But just a few minutes, we feel the game is boring. Quests are just grindy quests like they have in Q-World, Chibi Online etc. We didn’t find anything outside the box. Maybe the only interesting thing is the cute pets.

Graphics and Effects

Since they use the same game engine, the effects are just as awesome as in other perfect world games. You can see the effects from the following screenshots.

Pets

The game company advertised this game as the most cutest 3D pet game. We have noticed that they "borrowed" the eudemons concept from Eudemons Online. You can summon your pet and combine the pet to your character. You can capture all monsters to be your pet, which feature could be found from the game called Legend of Golden Plume.

Pets are divided into 9 factions. Each faction has restrictions and generations. This is fun when PK. You have to know this when you see your enemy’s pet.

Fly

As you know in Perfect World Online, there is a race have special ability and they can float and fly in the sky. In this game, no matter what race you choose, you can have the ability to fly. When you reach Level 10, you are able to accept a quest and then you can fly. The following are the images when you fly.

Conclusion

Pocket Western Journey is just another Perfect World’s combination product. They borrowed a lot of concepts welcomed in Chinese market and impliment them into the game. But as to game play itself, there isn’t any break-through. More and more players are tired such kind of games. If you like pokeman, you should try it when you have a free afternoon and decide whether you are willing to stay or remove it from your hard disk.

We, Fmmorpg.com wish Beijing 2008 Olympics a success!

People normally will regard a life circle for a MMORPG is about 3 years. But Conquer Online has lasted for over 5 years now and it seems this life circle has been extended for quite a long time. As the 1st MMORPG in global market introduced "Free to Play" concept, we still think Conquer Online has a long way to go. We are informed that Conquer Online has released a new class: Ninja.

The art of assassination was developed to its zenith in feudal Japan and now the warriors of shadow are emerging in the world of Conquer. The ninja will be a master of stealth, subterfuge, deception, and of course, ninjutsu. Don’t expect the ninja to be a front line battle-tank, these shadow warriors are skirmishing tactical characters, specialized in delivering the final blow, not engaging entire armies.

In the world of Conquer, ninjas have long been a mystery, shrouded in secrecy and cloistered in their shadowed guilds. Unforeseen events have now brought them to the limelight in the New Dynasty, bringing an unexpected addition to Conquer’s rich cast of characters. The path of the ninja will soon be laid out before you, though whether you walk in light or dark is your’s to decide.
Armed with tantos, wakizashis, and even the legendary katana, ninjas will be the focus of the New Dynasty. Naturally, our artists were only too keen to start sketching out concepts for this exciting new development. Below are the fruits of their labors. Take a good look, and prepare for the ninja’s arrival!

Sometimes the simple the better. In conquer online, you don’t need to do loads of boring quests. Just simply griding and interactions will bring fun to the players. Currently there are still 70+ game servers out there. If you want to experience this first free to play mmorpg in the world, have a check on their Conquer Online Official Website then.

The most noticeable new feature is the addition of 8 new maps including the new country of Qinchuan, its capital city Jingchuan, a huge, accurate replica of the Forbidden City (populated by dragons), a Dragon Maze, a large Hot Spring area, Qigong Temple, and more. The new maps expand the game’s playable area by about 25%.

Guys at Ingle Games recently send us a piece of news, that GDS Online, got name changed to Chaos Online, will be released on August this year!

Chaos Online Introduction

Chaos Online is a free to play massively multiplayer online role-playing game with the latest 2.5D engine: SancoX - which is specialized in magnificent effects and expansibility. The game is designed by a group of lunatic game makers, implementing all the impossibilities into the game – For example, you can cast your powerful spell when ridding on a modern motorcycle!

Besides the standard features of a MMORPG, its Growth system is a sparkle of the game – You can upgrade each item both in terms of level and quality; including weapons, armor, eudemons, gems and even mounts! Race war is extremely breathtaking since there are three races – nobody knows who will win the war in the chaos of allying and betraying.

The game is operated by a very experienced team of programmers who are dedicated to providing the best services to all gamers. If you want to experience a different free MMORPG, Chaos Online is definitely your choice!

Official Released Game Features - Part I: Everything is growing

Weapon

Weapon is one of the most interesting parts of Chaos Online. There are five different qualities of weapons in this world: normal, refined, elite, perfect and awakened. You can use different raw materials to create different quality of weapons. A weapon of perfect or awakened quality absorbs experience during the battles and it will level up. The higher level the weapon is the more powerful attributes it has. Once a weapon is awakened, you can make at most 8 sockets on it - 4 for different skill gems and 4 for eudemons, which will add extra power to your weapons. You can also reinforce your weapons. Other functions of weapons are under development, such as +1 system, quality upgrade on any items etc. We are sure once the game comes into Open Beta stage, you will experience all of these interesting functions.

Armor

Beside weapons, all the other equipment like armor, belts, bracelets, necklaces, rings, boots, helmets, are growing too. You don’t need to change the armor you have been working so hard when your character levels up. You can simply use a meteor to upgrade your armor to another stage - all of its attributes will go up with the level upgrade. Gems can be embedded to your armor as well. You can also reinforce your armor to make them more powerful. By precious gems, you are able to activate the hidden attributes of your armor. You can also easily change these attributes if you want something different!

Mount

There are two types of mounts in game. The normal ones can’t grow up and we can’t battle when we are riding on them; the advanced ones can grow up and we can battle when we are on them. You can use a mount soul to activate the extra attributes of your mount and then use the Sapphire and ores to enhance them. A mount can be enhanced 9 times at most and the ultimate mount is very powerful. Now you can ride horses, tigers, leopard and motorcycles etc. in game. We are also developing bikes, skateboards these modern stuff as mounts!

Eudemons

Eudemons are like pets, attached to your awakened weapon. They will grow with your weapon and add extra attributes to it. Once a eudemon reaches to a certain level, it can be reborn and you need to sacrifice another eudemon for it. Different eudemon has different growth rate and specialties. Currently there are three types of eudemons: single attribute eudemon, double attributes eudemon and universal eudemon. They can be attached or unattached to a weapon easily. They absorb stars’ power to grow and their highest level will be +1 to your weapon’s level.

Gems and Stones

All stones, crystals, gems, ores in this game have different quality levels. Some of them can be easily composed from low levels to high levels. For example, you can use 6 Lv.1 Crystals to compose a Lv.2 Crystal with 100% successful rate. You can use 6 Lv.2 Crystals to compose a Lv.3 Crystal with 100% rate, and so on.

We hope the above brief introduction will entertain most of our readers. Since they will release the game soon, let us check it out when it’s out: How does that weapon awakening work, and that motorcycle, 8 sockets thing… We have also get some alpha test activation codes.
