      First of, sorry if this Topic already exists but i couldnt find anything...
      As for the rules regarding this forum: Im not advertising, just collecting Informations.

      Now to the Topic:

      Anyone got more information? I appreciate any information, no matter which :p

      All i know is:

FACTS:

  • Staff: DarkDevine, Death_Black, gash, Kenpachi, Simca, Sirius_White, T-Bash
  • Client: A new Client will be coded with much more possibilitys.
  • Emulation: Neither eA nor AEGIS will be used for ro.org. They will code an whole new Serverengine
  • ROorg Wiki: http://wiki.roorg.net/

  • Opening: Opening will be 10-03-2010
  • Pre-Registration & Community Board: Will be available one week before the release; means 09-26-2010.
  • Character Transfer: A Transfer from Euro/Iro and some pservers is planned. No exact Statement about that yet.
  • Version: It will be Ragnarok Online Classic, NOT Renewal.
  • Rates: Not decided yet, but they wont be too high. First infos said they will be 1x. Sirius_White said:
    Quote from: Sirius_WhiteDue to the technical structure we can't say much about the final rates, but they are not going to be comparable to original '1x'.
  • Association:: They are forming an Association in Germany which can then operrate without making Money out of it (earnings need to be used for Association stuff (f.e. Hardware), its not allowed to "earn" money with this Association)
  • Official?: Previous Statements from the Staff said, every single time, they will be kind of legal. It is an grey area of the Law. No further Informations yet.
  • Press Release: http://wiki.roorg.net/pr/statement_01_08_2010
  • The Law: They didnt get sued yet. Its only a rumor.
  • Harmony: Harmony WONT be used for ro.org. As stated before, new client - new possibilitys. The client will have its own protection.
  • Misc.:
    ROorg will use UDP. Not TCP.
    Movement will be coded in another way. There are is no positiondelay anymore.
  • Sources: http://www.ragnarok-online.org, Facebook, Twitter, #ROorg @irc.dal.net

Ps.: Sorry for the bad english but its not my native language. :([/list][/list]

So apparently they will use a new client, seeing their Features page...and they have an official license. This looks quite interesting.

If it has some eA devs, I suppose that explains why eAthena is almost completely dead for the past weeks/months.

Well as far as i know their "license" isnt a real one like iro/euro etc. got.
Its in an grey area. Not legal but also not illegal.

But the difference to pservers is, pservers are more on the illegal side (if not completely illegal) - no matter what.
This server claims to be more on the legal side (if not completely legal).

(As always, no facts, just rumors...)

And yes, didnt think about it that this could be the reason for eA's afkness...

Staff Members (Source: Facebook):

Kenpachi

Phew... so... DarkDevine is in the Staff...
Maybe he can say a word or two bout this Project and whats true/wrong? ^^

Just checked irc channels. They now got an brand new (i suppose) irc channel (#roorg @ deltaanime).

DarkDevine

Everything I can say to this, that this indeed is (or will be) a legal server.
I am in the development-team for web-coding and general content as well as marketing.

The team is correct as posted there, most people mentioned there should be quite known, as for Simca, she's my girlfriend and responsible for our graphics, e.g. the current ROorg pre-project page.

Last time a forum posted about ROorg, it became a huge flame-thread, one mod got his rights revoked, I got 30 of 6 possible warns and ROorg was titled a scam-project.

I won't go into further details, sorry.
You may ask Sirius_Black for more information in irc.deltaanime.net, channel #roorg, just as mentioned before.

I'm very interested to see how this will turn out, best of luck to all of you, Dark.
To right the countless wrongs of our day, we shine this light of true redemption, that this place may become as paradise. What a wonderful world such would be...

Lucian

Very interesting indeed. Good luck, Dark.

Kiyoshiro

Sounds like this might turn things around o-o I'll definitely make sure to give this server a try :P

Aaronock

Oooo with character transfer in there that makes me super tempted to try it out.
Even if all I get to keep character wise would be levels that'd be super super cool with me X_X

*Will love to see more info about this server once it is ready*

Abversen

I can't help but wonder what the point of this is, though?

I mean it seems nice, but there's already things like iRO-Valkyrie floating around. What's the perk? It's as up-to-date as kRO is? It plans to be bigger & badder than current retail servers?

I'm not trying to be a **** but yeah I really just do not get it. Expecting people to legitly play a 1x (I'm merely assuming you'll have some kind of anti-bot, if not then REALLY what is the point?) at this point is optimistic to say the least.

Scereye

Well... they are in the making of an brand-new client.
More possabilitys.

And i appreciate an back to the roots 1x original server.

And by gods sake, i kind of BET they will have an bot protection... look at the staff... :x

I'm not having good vibes with this new server.

You will see once it is released, dude. Believe me. There would be no sense in explaining now, when it will be released in at least 1th August this year, since things can change every day.

Sirius_White is the author of Harmony, the bot protection that OpenKore abandoned to bypass in v2 because they weren't able to, v3 is already out. The project surely is optimistic, being pessimistic brings you nowhere in life, since you just don't try out, so we rather are optimistic.

I am myself excited seeing this project growing, all we can do is to wait until the release and check it out by our very own.
Since I am the web-developer, I sadly don't have information I can satisfy you with. I am just a random eA contributor that they picked for their team because of my web-skills.

Thanks to everyone that will at least give ROorg a shot once it is released.

Here are the only things I can think of:

- No lag.
- Impressive anti-bot.
- Good staff.

And that's really it. Unless this is some kind of customized 1x, there's pretty much nothing else unless you do things like fix position lag, but that's a negligible change at best. I'm not trying to downplay this server, obviously the intentions are good, but I can't understand what I could possibly "wait and see". The concept of the server is controversial and not very awe-inspiring. Maybe I'm missing the point somehow, but so far this is coming off as a "too little, too late" server. I could see this being successful 3-4 years ago. But not now.
