Transformers Online (CN) - Preparing for launch

Posted: 28 May 2011 03:20 AM PDT


No, 25th May isn't the day the game launched, but officially announced. So, if you have not read my previous posts, there are actually 2 Transformers Online game in development. This particular one is from Chinese developer NetDragon and it will be a third person online shooter (MMOTPS). I read that NetDragon is kind of pissed at Hasbro for giving the rights to have 2 similar titled games being developed at the same time, but then again it is just a rumor.


Some character artwork was shown and I thought I should share them. Each faction currently has a new robot on their side, together with an unannounced one. I am sure more will be revealed as time passes by. If you are thinking of creating your own Autobot or Decepticon, be prepared to be disappointed. But otherwise, stay tuned for more info as the game prepares to launch later this year.

Dragona Taiwan - Pet system preview

Posted: 27 May 2011 11:25 AM PDT


So, the Closed Beta for Dragona Taiwan is still going on and I thought I should give it a final spin before playing too much and spoiling the fun myself when the global server comes. I will just like to touch briefly on the pet system found in the game. Dragona Taiwan's pets can only be found in the cash shop lottery boxes. If you are lucky, you might get a Pet Chest from the boxes.


Right clicking the Pet Chest, players must go through another lottery. There are 3 pets available and some comes with different number of empty skill slots. Some will want to spend money on the boxes until they get one with max 4 skill slots. I was able to get all 3, seen below. There will be costumes for them as well.


Where do the skills come from? Well, you get them from Pet Skill Chests, which can be found as a random item from the cash shop lottery boxes as well. Some skills include looting, expanding pet's inventory, ability for pet to help you sell items etc.


How do pets help players sell items? Well, with the looting skill, pets will loot for players and the items go into players' inventories. Players must manually move items into the pet's inventory and click on the sell command. It will take about 5minutes, as the pet will need to "return to town" and sell them before returning. It looks pretty cash heavy since everything is lottery based, but we shall see the prices when the global server is out.

Dragon Ball Online (TW) - Official Closed beta starts 27th May

Posted: 27 May 2011 11:22 AM PDT


Dragon Ball Online Taiwan, which I covered in my previous posts, will enter its 1st official Closed Beta phase on 27th May which is in a few days' time. New features will be the ability for characters to change into their adult forms at level 30, with the level cap at 38 this time round. However, players will get an item at level 10 and become level 33 straight once consumed. These adults forms are also considered job advancements as well, with characters able to access new skills and of course, a new class name. Super Saiyan mode?!


There will also be more Time Capsule quests, leading players back into the past and re-visiting old scenarios found in the comics and anime. Various GM events are also organized for participating players. Be sure to catch my uploaded high definition videos after the VIP Beta ends! Dragon Ball Online Taiwan also revealed it official website look, which is really, really neat~
