2Moons (From that one company that bought Acclaim's name!)

It’s an mmo, kind of like a vulgar D2 crossed with WoW.
hell, I’ll just copy paste.

Wikipedia.com says, “2Moons is a MMORPG published by Acclaim under the direction of David Perry. The game is an adaptation of Korean MMORPG Dekaron by Gamehi for the North American market, featuring a new story line by Henry Jones.” 2Moons is currently in open beta, yet there is a very small list of bugs and none are game-breaking. The open beta started on July 30th so it has only been out for about a week. The first guild popped up around the 3rd day in so the ‘grind’ doesn’t seem too bad at all as you have to be level 50 to even start one. It will be free to play with a cash shop and optional in-game ads for 10% experience bonus.

This game requires that you are at least 17 or older. Why?

EVERYTHING IN THIS GAME EXPLODES IN A SHOWER OF BLOOD AND GUTS!

2Moons also curses like a sailor, or rather tries as fuck shows up as f*ck or f8ck. The recent patch slightly censored the hilarious fishing responses like, “You didn’t catch shit.” “The line snapped and the fucker got away.” “The fish was stronger than you, pussy.” I hope they add back in an option to see all of the profanity in it’s wonderful glory.

The 17 year age limitation and profanity should keep the kids away from this game, though it doesn’t stop them. I’ve gotten a few idiots to admit their 14 year-old age in global chat and I can only hope got them banned.

[ul]Some key features of the game are:
[li]Amazing potential to grief players.
[/li]> [li]Characters are tied to server groups. You can play with that character on any of the servers part of that group. There are currently 6 servers.
[/li]> [li]Very good graphics including bloom, bump-mapping, etc.
[/li]> [li]Gibs and blood. Which, in my experience, is a first for the MMORPG genre.
[/li]> [li]Cursing and no chat filters unless you use all-caps. So you can say “fuck” but not “FUCK!”
[/li]> [li]Diverse landscapes and monsters. I have yet to see monster models be re-textured to be used again. Also, most monsters have a gimmick to the way they attack you and really mix up the combat to keep it interesting.
[/li]> [li]Single and Multi-player Instance Dungeons
[/li]> [li]Free-for-all PvP, you can kill anyone you want at any time but you turn evil and able to be attacked by anyone for a certain amount of time. Think Ultima Online style PvP but without death penalties.
[/li]> [li]Guild PvP, declare war against other guilds, siege guild castles for control over them, etc. Not implemented yet.
[/li]> [li]Battleground PvP, there seems to be a large area with a ton of NPCs to send you to instanced battleground areas limited by player level ranges. Not implemented yet, though.
[/li]> [li]Observer PvP, watch the large fights from the safety of an observer camera.
[/li]> [li]Level cap of 150 - 750 total stat points and 150 total skill points.
[/li]> [li]A better fishing system than any other MMORPG out there. It’s still fishing, though.
[/li]> [li]Socketed items, insert sockets into items, insert items into sockets, take items out of sockets, etc.
[/li]> [li]Enchanting system to increase the damage level of the weapon with fairly rare stones.
[/li]> [li]Great party system with the ability to power-level players.
[/li]> [li]An intuitive stat and skill system with the ability to reset your mistakes once. There may be a cash shop item to reset them more times just in-case you are capricious.
[/li]> [li]No death penalty. All you lose when you die is time, but usually not much. You get a 15 second re-spawn timer and have to trek back to where you died.
[/li]> [/ul]

[ul]Classes:
[li]Azure Knight - Run of the mill knights. Sword, Axe, Hammer, Shield. Dual Wield, 2-Hand, 1-Hand, or 1-Hand and Shield.
[/li]> [li]Bagi Warrior - Hulking clobbering men. Cestus and Spikey-fists. They use their hands, and feet, like a monk.
[/li]> [li]Incar Magician - Cut & paste sorceress. Fire, Ice, and Lightning.
[/li]> [li]Segita Hunter - Just your average ranger. Daggers, Bows, Crossbows.
[/li]> [li]Segnale - Wacky healing demon class. Attack stuff with a lightsaber whip. They can heal, buff, and curse.
[/li]> [li]Vicious Summoner - Obvious summoning class. Uses either beasts (furry spec) or demons. Can dual wield daggers and cast some poison spells.
[/li]> [/ul]

“Amazing potential to grief players.”

I never lost so much interest in a game in such a short time in all my life. I can already SEE the thousands of retards screaming "nier, sp*c, Faot and god knows what.

and when has unfiltered cussing been a highlight to any game? have we all regressed to such a deranged state?

well, theres my 2 cents. :fungah:

Yes, nothing keeps kids away from a game like swearing. With profanity being such a highlight, it seems the game is only marketed to teenagers, in spite of the age restriction.
“Our game only appeals to those under 17, but you have to be over 17 to play it.”

And yet it’s so much fun because those that are actually old enough to play the game are the only ones good at it. IE you can unmercifully destroy those that suck once you hit level 20 :]

It just seems endlessly juvenile to me, and i don’t mean to come in here screaming and seemingly “knocking down” what this guy has to say. But when i went to go play crono trigger or Shen Megami Tensei, i can tell you i wasn’t looking for “Unfiltered cursing! yes! lololol!” as a highlight to making my game expreince better. Sounds more like a curse than a blessing.

If WoW didn’t have something that stop all the kids and “kid adults” from that kind of nonsense i would have stopped playing a hell of alot sooner.

And what, WoW is a sophisticated MMO for grown men to sip tea and discuss the current economic climate? It’s a fucking game. Why not enjoy it?

This looks pretty cool, but it’s AV weekend. :frowning: I’ll download it tomorrow for sure

I should hardly think so, and i never said that. {infact, 50% of it population being complete retards was one of the reasons i quit}

However, its a game where things where controlled semi nicely, and there arn’t a million people getting mad and saying {WARNING very adult stuff, and no i’m not a racist] FUCK YOU NIGGER!!111 FUCKING NEWB! BITCH BITCH BITCH ASSFUCK MOTHER FUCKER!! FUCK YOU FAGGOT BITCH NIGGER LOLOLOL YOUR A GOD DAMN MOTHERFUCK FAGGOT HAW HAW HAW1111!!! {This is literally what diablo 2 LoD had melted to before i finally quit… sad really.}

yeah, that sounds REEEEEAAAAL delightful.

Your logic is broken.
“THIS GAME SUCKS BECAUSE OF THE PEOPLE THAT PLAY IT”
that kind of logic only works in situations where you hate a band like ICP or slipknot because their fans are stupid.

I play 9Dragons which is pretty good and by the same people. It has the crucial advantage of Ninjacommies being a class.
