Ah, didn't know that. Hopefully will change here then :)

Unfortunately for me, I have to pay my phone bill today lol ugh
That's usually the case with any game that saves your progress on your device rather than their servers. But with a true MMO, they really need to be able to do quick patches. If it's a single-player game it's not a big deal. But one little bug in an MMO can cause mayhem if it sticks around for too long.
I didn't know you have to buy other stuff in game as well. Is it for real cash or can you get them with in-game currency as well? And are they absolutely necessary or give an advantage over others who don't spend money?
I really want this to be a good, successful game. But I'm not looking for something to drill a hole in my wallet. I'd like to know before getting it whether I should expect to spend money besides the monthly fees. Any word on that yet?
Can anyone that bought the game make a RedRyder char. On reserve for me so I can use it after I purchase? And like delete it by then?
From my understanding, you can buy Gold, real in-game currency, for real cash. I'm not sure on how the pricing works for the game yet, if 100 gold would be a lot or just like the 160k for XYZ Plat here, but yes real cash = money in game.
There are also these Runes you can purchase, which I don't know what they do.
Got it, let me know when you want me to delete :)
Lol I hope we don't have to worry about reserving names.
Err... That means two people can have the same name with diff caps? I hope not.
Do I need to ask someone to reserve Lesrider for me? Lol
Ok add me,

Here is why, currently, I still prefer Blackstar to all the others that either just came out or are coming out later this year;
1) There is so much unknown with a game/company dealing with World of Midgard. Yes, it looks great, but what else have they ever done to show they are capable of not just delivering a quality product, but also bring quality updates and customer service?
2) Gameloft ( Order and Chaos ) have a proven track record of horrid customer service, poor updates, and ignoring updates for months at a time on their games. No dedicated forum for their MMO. Their current forums get spammed like crazy by shoe ads among other things... if Order and Chaos got big, imagine how bad in-game advertising will get? Ever read Gameloft's forum? They have just one moderator responding to people and they are almost 100% copy and paste responses like "thank you for your feedback", and "thank you for your kind words".
3) We know how Spacetime treats us. We see the updates. They are proven. You know Blackstar is going to be just as good, if not better than Pocket Legends. Blackstar was the game they originally wanted to make on PC, when Pocket Legends wasn't even a thought in their minds. Blackstar is their baby and thus you know Spacetime is going to make sure the game is great and take care of it.
You can only... Play this on wifi...

I agree with everything you said. The best thing about PL is not the game itself but the customer service and the community. Aside from the fact that you can play for 5 min or 5 hours if you so chose. STS still has the best mixture for a true MMO. I do fear gameloft customer service and updates, since they have such a bad track record on those and MMOs depend on those to be effective.
Not if you have a jailbroken device. I tried it on 3g and it works.
I love Pocket Legends but Order & Chaos is also great. I'm a hugh wow fan and played from beta up until a few montha ago. Order & Chaos makes me feel like I'm back playing vanilla wow and that is a very good thing IMO. I'm sill really looking forward to Blackstar and it is a first day purchase for me. I'm not sure where I'm going to get the time but plan on playing all 3 PL, Order & Choas and Blackstar.
edit: Varking thanks for info.
Anyone want to give their impressions of O&C yet? How's the combat, UI, PvP, PvE etc?? Txs.
You will not be able to play 100% free. Maps will be buyable just like in PL.
I wrote an article about this game on the 4th of April and one of the things they said;
So you get two zones and then you have to pay.Quote:
The plan is for the game to be free with an item shop but we will do the item shop development after game is done and playable with a few areas. Until the item shop is finished, the game will be free for 2 zones and then $1.99. We will try to add a new zone every 2 months until the currently planned 20 zones are all added.
You can say there is going to be massive updates but the fact is with an unknown company you just don't know. Yeah they can pull through and have some awesome stuff in a month or two, or they could find out the game is too much for them. A free game that graphics intensive? They might have issues keeping the server up. Just looking up some of their names in Google I don't see any previous game experience on a professional level for them.
They also said open world PvP starts in the .... you guessed it!... Third zone. The first one you have to pay for.
I just can't wait to play the game. Bad timing though when I have a 10 pg argument paper lol. Couldn't even play after the download finish due to the 1st draft lol. I'm down to play any mmorpg on iOS since the addiction PL started. TWOM grabbed my attention for months till PL took it back completely. Yslandia was a huge disappointment, and I hope this game will not disappoint. Can't wait to get on campus with it's glorious wifi :)
Longest bus ride everrrrrrrrr
