    As soon as they put in the other channels THQ will be the best hands down. Less engrish, more english players, and no lag once you're in. From what I hear the others are laggy as shit.

    For us americans, yeah. When I'd kill enemies it would take a moment or two for them to actually drop their loot for instance, and there were times when a big group of enemies wouldn't spawn in a mission map and I'd have to wait, therefore messing with my score even more =/.

    I hella want to play this, but I think I am going to wait for the open beta to start.

    This looks fantastic though.

    The one channel (with no queue mechanism built in yet) for THQ is the only thing that sucks.

    The game rocks once you're in and there is no lag.

    I'm not actually sure when the beta for the US version is going to start, I just know the IAH ones starts the... 4th? You need different clients to get to each one, thankfully they only take like 10 minutes to download.

    found the problem, the password i used for my account was 16 digits, seems like the game client only accepts 14 digit passwords, i entered the first 14 digits of the password i use to login to the site/forums and it worked fine. Now if i could only connect to server ....

    its not supported, you have to use a program to enable it. I use xpadder. and yes the game plays a lot better on a gamepad (imo)

    So installed xpadder and got it set up. Everything seems to be working, and if I open up notepad and hit buttons on my pad the right stuff is getting put in notepad (c, s, x, etc...) but in dragonica it's a no go. Nothing happens :/

    Warrior, Magician, Thief, Archer are the main branches. There's no monk like class afaik.

    Thieves/Tricksters/Assassins use claws and katars, though.

    Warrior's actually will get the chance to kind of become a 'monk'. For every class there is a 'secret' class you can find at Level 30, for the Warrior it's called a 'Duelist', which leads to a Battlemaster class. Got... no clue what it's like, us non koreans probably wont see it for a while.

    Set Xpadder to XP compatibility, and run it as administrator.

    I'm using the PS3 controller with Windows 7 and I managed to get it working, so I'm sure anyone could.

    If anyone wants my Xpadder config maybe I'll post it, it works very nice.

    I have a grand total of 3 gold at the moment. I'll send it over when I get on this afternoon (GMT).

    As for a name, it should probably be something PA related, or at least have "PA" in the name. Or if that doesn't float anyones boat, We Are Nice Guys is always a good standby.

    I wanted to go healer-type, I loved playing my healer-girl in Lunia you see. Or did I just like the attention that came with playing a girl who flashed her undies every time she jumped? Hmm. We'll see. Anyway, I'm still only lev10 anyway.

    Level 11 as of right now.

    I did some tinkering with parties, and a) it appears we get "Friend Points" for "socializing", whatever that means, and b) looks we can get quests items if someone else in the party kills monsters. Which is kind of nice.

    1:1 by the looks of things and a small charge of silver.

    Eh... guess it depends on how quickly the points rack up, being charged kind of sucks too. Could at least let you get gear.

    I picked up my first piece of Dark Armor last night, helmet from a quest. Now there is a Jewel Merchant in Traitor's Ridge. From what I understood when messing with the gPotato test when it was still going the jewels were acquired by buying them in the Cash Shop, though there seemed no way to get them. But there was said to be ways to get certain pieces in other ways. In this THQ version it seems the jewels are nowhere to be seen in the shop... makes me wonder if they realized that or not.
