Archlord 2 Now in Open Beta
Webzen is now serving up an Open Beta for players interested in trying out their latest MMORPG, Archlord 2. Self described as a "Brutal PvP MMO" Archlord 2 offers players the opportunity to join one of two factions and battle it out across a variety of PvP scenarios including 400 player battlegrounds and open world contested zones.
The move to open beta comes with a patch that increases the level cap from 30 to 41, adds the Aquila Arena Skirmish, increases basic attack speeds by 20% and slightly adjusts how secondary attributes are calculated.
While Archlord 2 features a fair amount of instanced dungeons to tackle, Webzen will be primarily focused on monitoring PvP during the Open Beta in order to fine-tune combat over the course of the summer. Regardless of which style of content you focus on though, Webzen wants to remind players that Archlord 2 is an MMO focused on party-based content and not solo questing.
For this reason, Webzen is recommending players try and group up as much as possible to enjoy their time within the MMO. It also doesn't hurt to have someone watching your back as you gather crafting resources in a contested zone.
If you're interested in downloading Archlord 2 and trying it out for yourself, you can find out more information and the link to download the game here.

thats just dumb
It plays like if it was done in the 70's. Graphic well it could be seen as ok, but the mecanic behind the game is just horrible. Even the combat is slow almost like turn base game. Can't even dodge the hits from mobs have to click your skill and wait 30sec for the animation to go off and hit the mob, it is a mess right now.
these garbage korean asian games suck.
Give this a pass unless you want to experience the disappointment personally, then by all means give it a download.
It's good in a way, but not as good as the trailers etc. shows it to us. The gameplay feels clunky, movement is meh, the performance is horrible for the graphics used...
And speaking about graphics: They are dated and i feel like the trailers used an engine, that was never used to create this game
