It gives new meaning to the crap that is turn-based combat. I joined the beta, because the story sounded really cool. I knew going in that it was turn-based, but didn't know your could make turn-based combat any crappier until I played this game. If I wanted to wait my turn to fight in a game, I'd play chess or checkers first, LOL! If I had to rate different areas of the game on a scale between 0 to 5. Zero being horrible and five be excellent, this is how it would go down.

Storyline: 5

Movement: 4

Graphics: 3

Combat and Gameplay: 0

Well at least thats my 2 cent, who know other people may like this kind of game.

I dont think the same.

The combat system is very strategic and it feels more intense than your regular point and click MMORPGs.

But I agree, the combat style tends to turn down a lot of kids and generally bad players, making Atlantica Online have the most mature communitty I have ever seen on a RPG.

i agree wid u :D turn-based in not for dumb who just want to click and farm..:P

ahh i find the game quite cool ^^

Unlike most online games we actaly have to do something to win a battle... in this case we have to give combat commands ^_^

maby u like a difrent type of game.. well thats quite logic...

i do say tho.. something is curently wrong whit the game and website since i havent be able to login for hours on both the game and website

Well.. many players do not like this game because they have no idea how to play STRATEGIC game. I learned some strategies from Free League and YouTube. This is a game for thinking how to combat~~ not about SPAMMING skills or HIT-n-RUN or LAGGERS pwn u all like the other boring games.

* I posted the same reply on the other thread

i'd have to say that this game is well worth my time, playing this cost free is a huge surprise. this game has plenty of potential.

the combat system is what most complain about, if you dont like the style dont say the game sucks and leave it at that, explain yoru reasoning and it isnt "For you".

i would recommend this game, greatly enertaining and is personally a great style for me.

 I found the combat system to be refreshing. But in the end, grinding is all you could do (Though less tedious because of the TBS).

OP, have a nice time in another mmorpg! Hope you find the one that fits you.

It seems that you played this game for so little that you can´t make a nice review, even if not talking good about it.

For me, its one of the most polished betas I´ve ever been into and having fun, I have a lvl 66 char.

The best of it,its its communitty ingame, I´ve found a lot of nice ppl.

The game teaches well in the new lvls and strategy is all about.

Greets

I'd like to ask the OP how long he actually played the game before coming up with his point system.  Whenever I see posts like that I cant help but think ... hmm 12 yo grinder possibly macro kiddie pissed off about stamina cuz he cant go to sleep when mommy says and leave his comp in game to make him uber leet.

/rant off

I like the game so far.  People should really give this one a shot, it seems a nice mix of mmorpg and strategy rpg.  I am level 40 and it didnt take too long to get there and my crafting is higher than I can actually use so I get a lot of money from selling my wares.  The game is worth giving a good 2 to 3 weeks or more before basing a decision.

Final Fantasy was a turn based game and look how popular they were.. and still are.

 Even if I'd never played this game before its clear the op is an ass.

The turn based system gives new meaning to MMORPG. I like how massive the game can be. I would definitely want to play Atlantica Online.

The turn based system of the game is really a major breakthrough in the mmorpg community, and I must say kudos to this game for giving gaming fans (like me ) another reason to love playing mmorpg. sure it's not suitable for kids who doesn't understand the concept of turn based systems, but the combat system is really cool I'm going to give it a 5 out of 5
