http://www.spiralknights.com/So I was doing some research and had to Google something (I forgot what it was) and came across an interesting game pic

or maybe it was..idk

Anyway it is a simple yet bass game. Reminds me a lot of the Zelda gameplay stucture and it is easy to figure out. Please check it out and feel fee to find me (ShinGamix) there. Yes I have the same name there too. Alas N.E.O. Online may be gone but I still have hope for it to return. Until then play Spiral Knights.
(I hope this does not count as advertising becuase this was not my intentions)

Someone voted no but I have no idea who it was. They didn't post any kind of reply.
(Also I didn't know if you hit the enter button it the same as post now? How did that happen I wasn't done typing all this and it did it for me? Wierd)

I voted "No".
Mostly because I'm very anti-MMO. If you don't have things you need to do a MMO could be a blast, but with school and my hobbies (RMing, gaming, retouching, composing and writing) I rarely find enough time to play an MMO and when I do it's usually one of the P2P ones because I'm one of dem' elitist bastards.
My few cents.

I gave it a go when someone else mentioned it in either the spam or youtube topic. Wasn't really engaging enough and well when I came to the general character visuals I had no clue what I was buying or rather how it would look. I like to have my characters in MMOs looking a certain way, I don't go with the masses and jam myself onto the bandwagon of the builds and equipment sets.
I found
this a while after but haven't been able to fully download it.
EDIT - Topic is perfectly fine and this is the area to have it. MMO topics should they pick up can be great for getting the community to play them together, meet up, do a bit of pvp, build a guild etc.
I don't think we've found one yet though

A few of us in the irc room play this casually. Someone started a guild for rrr members as well. A few of us are even geared up for Tier 3 areas. (Hirei and myself)
Kirotan (at least I think it was) in the irc room is the one that started the guild. If you want in, just pop into the chat or send me a friend request ingame. Name is Zephyrcrash.

I didn't see this topic! D=
Yeah, so I play it and enjoy it. =D
(Accidentally clicked Null Vote after voting, but whatever.. ><)
It's a lot of fun, and an easy way to meet with peoples and do things with members. Also, because it is in its infancy, I'm sure it will have a great deal of material added to it soon enough. =]
I like joining in on MMOs when they first start up (or are very young) and play them for a long time afterwards.
Anyway, just created a Guild (Italian Mafia) just for the heck of it, if anyone is interested in playing it, let me know and I'll make friends with you. =D

I voted yes but don't like it. Garbenblargh I encountered a bug after they had patched it, in which a certain level of the first area tower thingy or whatever doesn't appear, so me and 3 other people were stuck there the whole time and quit, haven't bothered to try it again since nothing kept me interested in it. Also it is really laggy.
X-M-O
Jul 5 2011, 01:12 AM
It hasn't been laggy for me except for once or twice.
Depends on the server you connect to - I just switch servers when one is too busy.

Also, they've been doing a good job at patching up problems that have occurred, like the one you've mentioned.
It's better now and they've also added a lot of new stuffs. =D
Is "Garbenblargh" your username?
Shadyone
Jul 5 2011, 01:23 AM
Haha no, Shadyone or Assassin or something like that. Garbenblargh is my word for "wtf?!"
X-M-O
Jul 5 2011, 01:28 AM
Ah, good word for that. XD
I'll attempt to add you as a friend when next I have the chance to play. =D
Even if not for the sake of playing the game, I'd love to hang out with you (digitally). ^^

Luckily it's still installed

It's not just server lag, fps lag too (down to 20-40 fps usually) haha..

Awesome! ^^
It's an easy install though. Took me all of two minutes to go from registering to playing.
Being that easy to access, and such, made me more interested in it. =]
I like to be able to get into a game and start playing, versus downloading/installing something for more than 5 to 10 minutes... ><
I have low patience for games in general, however if it gains my interest then it could have me playing it for hours, days, and weeks on end. XD
FPS lag? What kind of graphics card do you have? That would be the reason.
Also, you should play it in Full Screen mode if that is causing it to lapse.

Most mmos suck me in for atleast a week, if it hasn't gotten me by the first day I dub it "Sir gtfo the internet". I tried this for 2 days so I guess it's not bad.
X-M-O
Jul 5 2011, 01:38 AM
Yeah, we are similar in that regard. XD
That's great. ^^
Of course, I'm a useful player to have around so perhaps I can get you more interested in it as time passes? =D
Shadyone
Jul 5 2011, 01:41 AM
That might be true! When should we start playing?
X-M-O
Jul 5 2011, 01:42 AM
Ok, tell you what... I'll log in right now. XD
My username is: Xi-Mi-Oi

Well, I think the username is correct for that specific Knight, but the login username should be different.
At any rate, I've sent you (Shadyone) a friend invite. =D

ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics with AMD Sempron 2.0GHz SL-I and 2GB RAM lol, pretty fail laptop.

Does anyone want to start an R3 Guild with me in SK?
X-M-O
Jul 5 2011, 12:03 PM
ShinGamix, we already have an unused R3 Guild - so I created my own active guild which gives freebies and such.

Of course, there are rules - but only a few, and they are more fun than restrictive. XD
@Shadyone: Yeah, it was a fun night. ^^
I don't mind if you die a lot, that's why we're a team and I can revive you. =D
Also, your laptop isn't too terribly bad... just perhaps a bit less than what you'd want to use for gaming, lol.
Shadyone
Jul 5 2011, 09:29 PM
Yeah I just need a better cpu, the graphics card and RAM are good enough to play a lot of more recent games according to

Jul 5 2011, 10:08 PM
Yeah. =]
Sorry I can't get online right now, about to go to bed because I have some work in the morning that needs doing. ><
At any rate, I was enjoying soloing the first tier again, and again. The best way for me to get Heat is to do that, because team mates tend to take the Heat since I use a ranged weapon.

Ah well, no worries. I'll soon have all 5-star equips/weaponry! >:3

bumping to keep my topic alive. sorry haven't been able to play for a while even though I want too.
Oh nice! NEW TOPIC ICONS!

Jul 16 2011, 10:50 PM
No need to bump really, we were keeping it alive. >:3
Currently, for this weekend, Mist costs are 5 for elevators!
Woo!

And to maintain the fact that we're keeping this alive...
A new mini-game has been added to Spiral Knights!
It's basically a "Bomberman meets the future" mini-game that allows you to join in and battle other players (first time for PVP in Spiral Knights)!
It's a lot of fun, come join me some time. (You'll have to PM me when you're on so I can join you - and hopefully I won't be working at that moment, lol.)

That's awesome =O
Going to have to try that when I have time to play SK again xD

Yeah, when you go into the area you are automatically equipped/supplied with a bomb that increases in power based on pick-ups.
You get health pick-ups, speed pick-ups, and extra bomb pick-ups (meaning you can drop more than one bomb for each one you pick up).
I think the max benefit you get from pick-ups is 9 (just like in the Bomberman games, if I recall correctly).
