    I thought they were out of Beta everywhere now? I know the IAH servers are getting a major content patch and are giving out x3 XP for the next few weeks. I haven't played the THQ version.

    I guess they're out of beta, otherwise it'd be pretty ridiculous for them to actually sell Cash Items, but at the same time, when I installed this game, it's called Dragonica Online Open Beta in my Start menu. The game itself doesn't mention beta anyway though.

    open beta's done i believe. this should be the full game. it's just that whatever installer you got was the open beta installer, probably.

    Oh damn, I should have read the info in the OP, I got all the way to level 18 in THQ version.
    Welp, time to download the new one and start over. It'll go much faster now that I know what I'm doing.
    And friend points!

    Hook this game up go a controller and goddamn it becomes 3x as fun.

    And I think THQ is the NA one and IAH is Euro or something.

    Is it possible to hook up a 360 controller to this game? Tis all I have. :(

    whatever you like best. For as far as I am aware you'll be the only PAer playing.

    Not that it helps any: but both sides keep spamming me with cash shop updates and more content, so the game is still considered lucrative by the publishers.

    Well, being forced to repeat every mission 4 times immediately after each other got kind of old, so I uninstalled already.

    Is anyone playing this? Is there a PA guild? I started this up and it looks like a fun little diversion to play during vacations and wen on the road with a hotel-grade WiFi connection.

    Best news: increased EXP gain, balance improvements
    Other news: housing system, new subclasses, new skills (of course), new maps, new PvP stuff, skill macros.

    I quit at the high level forties, when the fastest way to level was to farm minion spawns on a boss stage for hours at a time. I tinkered around a bit with the latest patch, but levelling is still painfully slow. I'd estimate that players can earn experience around 50% faster now, but I still wouldn't wish that grind on anyone.

    They raised the level cap, and I can't even imagine how horrific the grind must be past level 60. Given the game's exponential experience curve, a 50% improvement can't even make a dent on reducing the tedium.

    Dragonica is, unfortunately, a fun game that desperately needs private servers. The rate of progression as the developers dictate is just awful. Korea!

    I started playing again just to see what has changed, but early on it's still the same. Which means it's still fun, so that's something...

    Dunno how long I'll last this time, maybe I should just return to my old love Lunia instead.

    I don't think a 50% improvement on a 500 hours grind is going to get people back. Not much else has changed, only more stuff to do once you've grinded more than you can enjoy.

    is this for both versions or just the European version? I tried the euro one but it was too laggy for me.
