Allods PH News: Higher patch than Allods NA, CBT Dates

Levelup Games PH's Allods PH Management Team had a meeting yesterday with a few of the guilds who will be actively participating in the game. One of the premier guild of which I'm a member of, The Holy Order of Light, has put up a blogpost in their fansite and summarized the meeting for all those who weren't able to attend. Here are just some snippets and my comments.

Allods Cursed Items

So we've all read in the Allods PH forums that the Gipat patch was the straw that broke the camel's back for most players in Allods NA. Actually it was the inclusion of the Cursed Items in the game that made a lot of people quit. In order for us to prepare for it, we might as well review how it happens, how to avoid it, and how to debuff it.

How to build and pilot an Astral Ship in Allods

The ultimate goal of a serious guild in Allods Online Philippines (Allods PH) should be the Astral Ship. Compared to other MMORPGs this can be compared to a guild castle. An Astral Ship will allow you and your guild to fly into the Astral (space) and go to different islands, also known as Allods. However travelling through the Astral will be fraught with dangers both from Astral mobs and other guilds as well.

If you and your guild are interested to build and pilot an Astral Ship in Allods PH, then it would be best to read up on the guides linked below.

Fatigue in Allods Online

Allods Online PH will definitely have the Fatigue system. At first, most in Allods NA thought that Astrum Nival, the game developer, was committing suicide by putting a rather large block infront of "adik" players. Eventually, players saw what it was, a way to earn extra EXP when they rested. Below is a comprehensive guide to Fatigue via the Allods NA forums.

Allods Build Making Sites

While we wait for Allods PH CBT, most are looking for more info on the game--most of them are looking for the right builds. There are two sites that can tremendously help in making a character build for Allods Philippines.

Allods Online PH has been confirmed!

My guess was as good as I thought it was. Allods is coming to the Philippines!

“We are very excited to bring Allods Online to the country, and are confident that this title will take Filipinos to a whole new level of MMO gaming. Gone are the days of just hacking and slashing. The time of Astral warfare is now at hand.” says Level Up! Marketing Director and noted gaming blogger, Mon Macutay.

Allods Online, the biggest game project in Russian history which took $12 million to produce, features breathtaking graphics designed by artists honored at the prestigious global art competition, Dominance War; and a cinematic soundtrack by Mark Morgan.

With stunning visuals and a magnificent orchestral soundtrack inspired by classical, electronica, new age and tribal music – Allods Online guarantees to be a delightful explosion to the eyes and ears.

They just opened their site but has yet to provide any CBT date nor download link for the client. Most likely they will put it up there in a couple of days. Until then feel free to check out my posts on Allods Online.

One game ends, another begins

Taken from Allods Online International CBT

It wasn't too long ago that Philippine game publishers were adding new games at a rapid clip. It seems that these days they've developed a plan of closing one game and adding a new one a few weeks after. A good example would be eGames closing Supreme Destiny and opening the (ALSO currently closed) ZXOnline. With the addition of Allods Online into the Levelup Philippines list of MMORPGs, it looks like the cycle has been broken (IF Hello Kitty Online opens on Oct 2010).

Level Up Philippines new game is Allods Online?

UPDATE: They just announced it. Go to Allods PH site now!

Just got news from a fellow guildmate regarding Level Up Philippine's newest MMORPG. Check out the vid below:



The ship at the end resembles the one seen on Allods Online!

Now the question is whether the game will have it's server in the Philippines or will it be part of Global Level-up. If it's the former, then it would be great news for PH MMORPG fans as this game had quite a following internationally. If it's the latter then it may have competition with Mobius as they too sell Gpotato Points. Personally, I'm hoping for the former.

Hoping to be part of the CBT soon!
