lol That's creepy. I wouldn't want to be getting my SP from 'faded heads'

You guys should really think of something new to say

Yeah, after 5 years of playing SRO, you try having something new to say,

I cant get the damn client to work again. i fixed it a month ago..now i get inspection error at client launcher

I need a fresh media.pk2 if anybody can host one up for me. i think this may work.

No Media.Pk2 for YOUUUUU GET BACK IN SALVATION NOAWWW

Seriously guys, it's not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. I've seen far less gold bots, though I have seen my fair share of regular player bots. The numbers aren't nearly as annoying as they are in iSRO though.

Im already lvl 35 after a few days, and it wasnt as annoying as iSRO.

Hello this is Silkroad-R.

Based on the recently concluded in-game survey regarding the Recharge System, it turned out that many of our players were satisfied with the increase in recharge system connection time from 8 to 12 hours, though some are still not in favor of the system. Also, many players have disagreed regarding changing of the recharge system time limit from 12 hours of game access to 6 hours of hunting time and expressed that it will not be a good enhancement to the current system..

We would like to thank those who participated in the survey and rest assured that we are listening to our players' concerns. We will make sure that our legitimate players will not be affected by the system and we will try our best to constrain activities of illegal program users.

Also, we have received complaints from some of our players that they cannot receive any potions from NPC if they reach 50% EXP after playing for 8 to 12 hours. We have considered our players' concerns and have decided that we will change the system so that players will still get the quests and potions from NPCs in-game.

We will apply these changes as soon as possible and we will do our best to provide better game service. Kindly wait for further announcements regarding this matter.

Thank you!

Hello everyone ,How's the game now ! does it still have bots or much better ?

There are still some people playing there. Some people (including me) left to join Salvation, though (it's a private server).

Joymax didn't really do a whole lot against bots.

IMO too many private servers have the exp rates too high, including Salvation.

Even so, it's the % increase per level that makes it ridiculous on every server.

This, where is the fun in getting capped after several days? It's also the reason why i don't like private servers in general. I want to spend some time leveling together with my mates in pts. I don't want to be capped after 1 day or 2 weeks or 1 month. Actually i think the longer you can enjoy leveling together (yes, leveling together in a pt is the fun part for me), the better it is, which is probably the reason, why i prefer the original servers over all the private servers out there atm. I don't really care too much about endgame content tbh, it's nice to get there after a while of playing, but it's just not important for me.

it's a shame such an awesome game could end up like that .__.

BTW, fly the owner of salvation is open to adding custom content. We get weekly updates, im pushing for more pve focus and areas to pt play, as im like the guys here, i like the pve side of play and i dont like to cap in a few days etc. Just give salvation a chance, its where 90% of the old legits are at now.

That's what i already did and i decided it's not good enough for me. It was literally only about Battle Arena and Fortress War (unfortunately i couldn't even particiapte in it, as the time is just not suitable for me). There is not really anything, which would keep me on Salvation for a longer period.

I was like that as well, Kronos.
But after returning again after not playing some months, I was gladly surprised, really. But yeah, it all depends on the community, you know. If you join an active guild, you'll probably have enough to do.
At least in BigGameHntr we do trades lots of times each day, as well as FGW runs. Of course there is BA as well, as you mentioned. But for me that's not far as fun as FGW and trade runs are

And also, with all these new hidden boxes they've added, you can always go on a treasure hunt

you guys are playing a different game, it's not sro anymore lol.

Well, i guess that wouldn't be that bad. Unfortunately you need quite good equipment to start doing either of those things. If you don't want to invest money or a lot time in BA, you won't stand a chance, as you can't get the equipment, which you need for those activities. Currently i lack both money and time to spend on any version of SRO, which is also the reason, why i currently don't play any SRO. Besides i don't really see the point of gearing myself up. I am not quite interested in 1 vs. 1 or random pt PVP (i am referring to BA here), as you won't be in a decent team then in most cases. And as i already said i can't even participate in the large scale group vs. group PVP (aka Fortress War). So what are the benefits for me getting a complete 11D set? I'll do better at FGW or maybe jobbing and that's about it, but that's just not motivating enough to try getting a complete set. To be honest, the whole purpose of that server is getting the best possible equipment for Fortress War. If you can't even participate in it, the server seems to be completely pointless, at least for me.

But really, even if i wanted to play on Salvation, i couldn't do it atm. Even if it would be the best server and just awesome for me, it wouldn't make a difference right now.

Just want to point out that everyone at some point "does not have good items". When I returned to Salvation I was level 65 with a medium quality 7th degree / 8th degree set. You can start doing FGW right away with that set, if you're going with friends.
And trading as well, as long as you start out as a trader. You can easily make 50m in about two hours, if you trade. Probably less time, but yeah. And doing FGW will give you lots of money as well, if you sell the gear you get from there. You can sell them for like 20-30m each. That's what I did

Not having time to play is something completely different. Just kinda wanted to point out how I personally made enough for a full egypt set.

Hit 30 in a day. The xp boost and the xp gained from questing is amazing tbh.

It's still a grindfest so if you hate grinding don't even bother playing. Questing still involves grinding a sht ton..

Honestly don't know what you people are complaining. In 2 days i think i only saw 2 bots just regular ones not gold bots. The new 8-12 hour system is very good idea and i like it and not only controls bots but actually controls players who play as long as bots do. The xp is very nice and doing 3 quests at the same time on same mobs is fun especially with a party. I havent seen a single turk or any other guys other than english speaking.. going around and chatting with random guys is also fun. CTF / BA / FGW and the beginner supplies and sos really boosts things up and doesnt leave you under stress when trying to get good gear to survive vs mobs 10 levels below you as a wiz/bard. SROR is imo the best SRO version out there right now

whats the difference between a regular bot and a gold bot, both cause the same damage, both use the same bot, both are ran by players using the server.

funny how everyone knows a lot about gold bots yet no1 knows who is behind them....

bots are in sro-r and is just as bad as sro was, people bot until they cant get exp and then log off which i think is 10hours... something a legit wouldnt be able to do every day... 6 hours would be a keep gamer, 8 hours at a push (of grinding)

bots are there...

also why play at a joymax server? i dont want my private information leaked from another database leak...

Funny how you are trying to get the best of everything. You're right tho.. its better joining a private server and getting capped in 1 day/week/month then hop hop hop. Also you think private servers would live longer than the official producers of the game?.. Also why put private information in your account? Don't buy silk at all if your worried, infact that should be a good thing cause you'd be wasting money on your girl in real life then your girl in a game. Gold bots are far more annoying cause you see groups of 5000 in 1 area. Regular bots don't usually go on for 12 hours straight cause as you said there is a guy behind them, and yes that guy does want to actually play the game also, not only get money out of it. The legit community is quite big in SRO-R so you meet ALOT of legits.

im looking for private servers where leveling is harder and i dont care about caping, im much more intrested in pve then pvp anyway so capping means almost nothing to me. the information i dont wish to give is my email and my bank details that joymax has from purchases made when silkroad wasnt over run by bots but instead over ran but viets.

gold bots ARE player bots, most bots use 8man partys now adays anyway and if you can run 8 clients you dont have to do much more to run 20-50 and if he tells 10 friends in game about it then you suddenly have 500 bots in the server. gold bots are usually player bots who have gold bots as well, and when you get above 70 you do start to see PLAYER bots everywhere... even in larger area places bots are competing for the best spots or run party mobs around the map.

and gold bots and player bots run for the full time, if people can make a bot.. they can make a simple program to change up the accounts they use every 12 hours, 16 accounts, 8 chars run for 12 hours x2....


gold bots are just as bad as player bots, theres no Farking difference.
