Introduction
ArcheAge is an MMORPG developed by Korean developer Jake Song (former developer of Lineage) and his development company, XL Games. The game was released in Korea on January 15, 2013, Europe and North America on September 16, 2014. ArcheAge is described as a "sandpark" MMORPG, which the developers say is a hybrid of the open content style of a "sandbox" game and the more structured play experience of a "themepark" game.

What is "Unchained"
Everyone who do play MMOs should know that Korea titles are always accompanied with p2w cash shops even if it published by western companies. "Unchained" is basically the latest Archeage version that follow a complete different business model and that is buy-to-play model and promise that it will contain no gameplay advantage cash shop items. The cash shop items and premium pass will be cosmetic and related rewards. It also claim that anything p2w in the f2p version are completely removed in "Unchained".

Release date
It supposedly release on 15-Oct-2019.



Where can I buy it?
You can get it from https://aaunchained.trionworlds.com/account...put.action?dd=1 where US$26 is the cheapest and US$80 is the most expensive.

Personal thoughts
This is basically all their claims but all veterans should know that the company has rather bad track records when come to p2w. So, if the claims are indeed true, this would be the best non-p2w pvp-oriented mmorpg on the market.

this game is good.. until hackers started to roam free, land-grab issues and the stupid blockade on trade routes using your wheel cart - fyi, i dont mind being attacked on the road, but being unable to enter cities to complete the trading route because of some idiots parked their wagon at the castle door is so stupid!

Currently no. I believe it depends on the success of the release.
For example, BDO didn't has SEA but the NA/EU was very successful thus SEA was then added.

They adding it to steam but it might be region locked since they only got publishing rights to NA and EU. However, the game does not has ip block so you can buy it directly from their site.

The game is delayed to 15-Oct-2019. They are still working on some ingame items changes.

Anyone heading to EU due to better ping, please go to Alexander server!

Those going to Alexander EU, if you haven't reserve your name yet. The last window to do so is at Monday 6pm!

Otherwise, the server likely locked due to overpopulation.

Don't be alarmed at the requirements, this is basically your daily gamer activity level.
There are a lot of casuals who just play to see see rook rook and pass time, not gonna do anything in-depth or simply solo player. I intent to filter them all out.

You can join both region and see the ping yourself by checking the resource monitor under task manager.

I can only tell you to go for the lowest ping. The ping advantage is huge for pvp.

Ping in US server is 330-400 range depends on server load.
Ping in EU server is 130-180 range depends on server load.

Tested both and our gang now settled in EU server - Gildaron to get a smoother game play.

Ping me if you need friends to play together biggrin.gif

Archpass is back. Single account players now can get up to 4 labor charge per day from it alone, including spending most of the coins on labor charge.

Alongside with halcy labor charge, you will get 5 labor charge or 4685 extra labors per day.

I played this game for almost 4 years ( jakar server eu average ping is 220 with battleping) and i wont reccomend it tbh , no lag compensation and no skill queue , atm im 16k gs melee. Fightning european same gear level or higher ids a chore especially since at ur screen it say u are 10m away from enemy while in their screen is 12m ( out of ur skill range) so ur skill light up but cant be use or if its use it doesnt register hit

I mean sure atm its a new server everyone is kinda equal , but im at original server so i played the end-game content so kinda know how aau will be in the future.

Yeap have you downloaded the pre release file? I was hoping someone would come out and say it's infested with virus or something. Can't really get much info..most of the people in that group/page all pancut already saw SEA server.

Honestly still not yet 100% convinced it's legit lol!

from my experience playing on euro server + watching eu ppl play eu unchained , its going to be heavy p2w but less to do with buying ingame item from marketplace but more to do with just buying gold from players.
