| NCsoft Launches Lineage Episode XI Oren |
Sorry I missed this blurb that went up on the NC main site on 5/31 (http://www.ncsoft.co.kr/eng/news/read.asp?ListNum=2&PageNum=1). Keep in mind that everything below is in reference to the *Korean* servers, not the US servers. Episode 11 is expected to be in the US Test server in early July.
Test server application starting today, official server update planned on June 26th -'Magic system now completed', 'Introducing the city of ice' [May 30, 2002] NCsoft Corp. (President Kim Taek Jin) today unveiled 'Oren', the eleventh episode of online game Lineage. Oren is the latest episode available following episode X - 'Dragon's Lair' - which made is debut five months ago. Oren's main theme is based on the completion of magic, the highlight of role playing game genre. Through the introduction of Oren, Lineage's magic system, which was first began in Episode IV - ' The Mystery of Magic' - is now to be fully completed, enabling Lineage to provide full-fledged fantasy world of magic. In this episode, new features such as the wizard's high level assault spells and a dozen of fairy spirit sorcery based on elements such as water, wind, earth and fire were added. "By making updates in this episode, we not only tried to bring magic forward but we also took tribal class with relatively low access to magic into consideration. In the long term, we are aiming at creating a game system that allows people of all class to feel a distinct sense of fun so that everyone can find equal enjoyment" said Chang Joo Hyung, chief designer at NCsoft. Centered around an ivory tower, Oren is a city of ice with spreading snowy fields and ice. It stands in contrast to the 'Dragon's Lair', the city of fire. Featuring characters like the queen of ice and tundra monsters, the latest episode is grabbing fast the attention of game players. The unveiling of Oren was arranged using two test servers today. The game will be properly updated in 38 regular servers on June 26th. |
