It's an old GM sprite if i'm not mistaken.

[G-On]

Its the old GM Robot sprite from several years ago (IMG:http://www.eathena.ws/board/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) , im expecting the magic gear sprites to come in maybe one week , or more.
But as of now i cant find anything about the Magic Gear helmets in the grf, and their still adding Magic Gear/mechanic related items.

By the way ill say Mado now instead of "Magic Gear", as that is what i get from translations (IMG:http://www.eathena.ws/board/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) but correct me if im wrong

WTF
I just died hard

[LimitLine]

It's temporary... I hope... If they really use the old GM sprite for the Mechas, I'm so never going to use that class... ever. But they've already said it's temp, so we can only wonder on how the final Mecha will look like (Yes, I've seen that pic about it that's been going around for ages, I actually like it (IMG:http://www.eathena.ws/board/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

[Rytech]

The mech sprite currently being used is a temp sprite that will be used until the real ones are complete. So dont get upset just yet. I did post in the last update that a temp sprite would be used. Once they are, they will replace these. I allready made a copy of these sprites since ill be using them in the future for the 3CeAM project as a GM mount that will show if a GM mounts on anything.

Oh the intense hate of what I'm seeing here. What's gonna happen when this becomes the only way to play RO because people won't run servers that have an end-point at the last pre-renewal changes. I know it won't happen for a long time.. but people that make their own pservers these days are just hellbent on adding half-assed jobs already. @_@

Ok, fine, I won't deny that they putting a great deal of effort and overhaul work into something just because they feel they need to. I just know the possible product does not look promising for a game I like.

I agree that Ragnarok is losing its charm over time, too many maps, too many forced implented classes. In my opinion , ro was at its best before the advanced classes, ninjas, teakwons, etc.
Nice and simple (IMG:http://www.eathena.ws/board/style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)
And can you ppl stop posting screenshots in this topic of mechanics/old gm sprite >_> , the interwebs is loaded with them already.

Tenebrea: What's gonna happen when this becomes the only way to play RO because people won't run servers that have an end-point at the last pre-renewal changes.

I would , but unfortunately the ammount of people interested in such servers is verry limited, the only way to get a decent playercount these days is to go either verry customized ( thus explaining the Project im running ) or wait for atleast a year and hope the ro community hasnt died out by then.
I tried running a oldschool server a little while ago, but with little succes.

Thats because all of you are already getting bored of the game.
It "used" to be nicer, because back in the day you didnt know, as much as you know now, about the game.

RO is by far the most entertaining game i have played on the world of mmos. I just dont stick with any server because...Simply, they all suck. Few servers have decent rates (lower than 5x) but they ruin adding other custom npcs i dislike, or rather, the admins sucks too damn hard at everything besides giving items to their own characters, and when i make my own without the crappy npcs, people wont join because they are spoiled by jobchanger+teleporter+healer combos.

That, is Exactly what happend at the server i used to run a few weeks ago, i tried preserving the good of Ragnarok , and refrained from using bare crappy custom items, basicly what you described in your post, but the highest playercount i got was...7?

And i agree, whatever MMO i try to play and like, i always end up back at ro ^^
Even with the new content its still the best MMO out there in my opinion.

It's just like Brainstorm said. Why many of us remembering "old times RO"? Because backthen devs didn't throw us in bunch of mobs with a just unbelievable damage. Because RO was a smoother game than now - without AD, Fiberlock, Earthquake...
We had A VERY NICE and REALLY FUN game. We didn't need miniboss cards or even mvp cards or millisecond voice coordination for getting fun on mvp's or WoE. Just like Doddler said not so long ago:

"Again it comes as no real surprise then that when Gravity finally decided that they wanted to stop dallying with stupid things like the World Project and crappy little towns and focus on making challenging content for high end players, the method that they chose to do it was to make monsters impossibly strong. It wasn’t enough that a monster could hit you for 1000 damage a hit. No, they would make a skill that causes monsters to triple in damage. They couldn’t just make a skill that makes a monster evade some of your attacks, they had to make a skill that made monsters impossible to hit. While they make impossibly hard monsters, they expect players to utilize their extreme equipment and abilities given to them. I think though that in their desire to make things challenging, I can’t help but feel that they’ve overlooked some important aspects, such as reward for being challenged."

So many of us just getting bored to go to new servers and start all over again with no guarantees of stupid admin politics or bugs or even developers decisions to make game "better", just to get that piece of fun we didn't get on previous server.
I'm very sorry for this long rant on current RO or FPT servers.

@Topic
I'm really glad Gravity start making things in renewal by adding new content directly after development. We've got a GCross, AB, Warlock, Ranger, RK and Mechanic already, 3-2 classes are on their way for 25th March so very soon we'll have all new classes implemented and devs will take their time to get game ballanced. In the end(We all hope that devs know what are they doing) we'll get a game, with different mechanics, new monsters, interesting mvp fights\WoEs. Same candy with different filling? I think it's better way than get new mvp with 32-64k melee damage and oneshot-damage new mobs. All complaings about classes (Oh, warloks with casttime just suck, AB don't have battle build and just got mass version of old skills, GCrosses can't oneshot everybody anymore , RKs must hunt regs for runes and casttime of skills make them suck, Rangers can't spam DS and have useless traps etc.) is just like complaining about non-assembled car not moving as it normal or a stool without one leg constantly falling. Give them some time guys, and we'll get our piece of fun.

P.S. After playing RO for about 4 years I get a words in my head for all players: "All of us will be back". Even if you quit playing, you will return later for sure. May be for a minute, may be for an hour, day, month.. but you will return to this great MMO.
My big thanks for guys who read this post).
