I needed a new game to play and ive come across knight-online , and i must say it very very good and its FREE to download and play ...

This game is very much like daoc but with about 2000 more people on each server if not more . ive never seen so many people xping in one map ...

His the link and like i said its well worth a download ...

Thankfully I never had the experience known as WoW, and yes I am biased here but Warcraft games should have stayed rts imo, they rocked, and still do even though i've played them time and time again :)

Looking at the forums on the Knights Online site, it seems that the freeplay is a bit 'pot luck' depending on the server popluation. If it is busy, you are more likely to get on if you are a 'premium subscriber' (and thus pay). There is even a suggestion that non-paying players are excluded at certain times.

Also the idea of unbalancing the game by allowing you to buy an advantage (extra xp, better items etc.) might not appeal to everyone.

After seeing the trailer, I would be inclined to pay to play this game, but given the free login etc then I'd be more eager to see the full game content and make a decision as to whether I saw this as a game I would play in the long term.

This isn't the only game that has gone free play online. Games such as newly released Archlord and a few others are at this time offering such play to new or old customers. I guess it is down to timing, the games industry is typically in a lull at this time of year and trying to capitalise as much as possible on Easter before the Summer run comes when most games are released and making alot of money. So I can't say that I am surprised by this, but 9/10 for presentation, it does look like a kick ass game. :)

Sweet allmost exactly 1 year ago...
hi peeps well just wanted to tell you my 5 cents ;) if the game is free u cant expect to get same as anyone else does the idea with this premium stuff aint that bad u get nice coverage on game and when peeps love it they pay its natural. The differences gotto be significiant for someone to start to play though i reckon.

i played for 15 minutes...more adding and griefers than an eu server of doac.

as long as you dont speak english youll do fine.

game is full of turks...nice population, crap to be honest.

Better of getting the 10 day free trial of DDO:stormreach imo.

Thought they had extended that to 14 days recently? Or is that just for old players like me? :)
