QUOTE
Today, Thursday September 25, 2008 we are going to pre-launch our newest addition to iRO. The Valkyrie server is our iRO Free to play server, any account confirmed and available for play will be able to access the Valkyrie server.

There are a few differences between the Valkyrie server, and what will be known as our Premium Servers (Chaos/Loki/Iris). Experience and item drops are a little lower on the Valkyrie server, and a few game systems are tweaked as well. But the game play should be the game we all know and love; Ragnarok.

Please visit our update page for information on the precise differences between the Valkyrie and Premium servers. We will be updating our FAQ and Forums with more specific questions regarding Kafra Shop, Value-added-services, and other emergent questions and answers.

We look forward to seeing many more Heroes joining us on our adventure through Rune-Midgard!

Welcome!

Sounds pretty bleh to me actually. Teleporting costs 500sp and only acolytes can do it because creamy cards don't drop? No kafra warps? I'm surprised they let you make more than 1 character on the account (although they didn't mention that now that I think about it) with the way their free service is going/sucking.

Maintenance today improved teleport SP cost, and kafra warps are available in the two main capitals, Prontera/Juno. Right now there's a few hundred people on so its off to a pretty good start.

Wow. Gonna try it out but geez. They're really making you fight in order to be free. Everything costs much more, halved drops, 75% sell prices, tons of items are no longer drops and are just NPC-sold, you lose 3% exp on death (Worst part of the whole deal).

Don't see all that working out very well, honestly. And no Kafra Warps/teleporting? I just don't understand their reasoning for that. That's just a timesink, and on a free server that's utterly pointless.

The point of this free server was to stop bot farming on main servers, (no more free trial accounts) and they are trying to avoid that on teh free server as well. By nerfing teleport to cast an extrodinate amount of SP they are essentually telling botters that all their money will have to go on flywings, so it will hardly make it worth it.

Well, lone_wolf has a point, and it does make sense, but some things are still very messed up, because even though there are thousands of botters there are also thousands of players, so...

Personally I thought they would do something like this a long time ago to compete with free private servers (IMG:http://www.eathena.ws/board/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Seems like Gravity keeps charging against p.servers with their own f2p and with renewal coming as a killing move

1. They is no renewal on iRO yet.

2. This server is still much 'easier' than the kRO free server!
