Forge Reply’s impressive gamebook-inspired adventure Joe Dever’s Lone Wolf (Free) will be getting its third act this Thursday August 7th, the developer has announced in our forums. The new Act is called “The Shianti Halls" and will have you exploring “a not-so-abandoned place full of dangerous enemies, included the fearsome Vordak!" About that Vordak… yeah, I’m not looking forward to running into that guy, nor any of the other enemies you’ll square off against which are shown in the following Act 3 trailer.
The Shianti Halls will be available as a $4.99 in-app purchase inside the Lone Wolf app, or if you’ve already purchased the season pass it’ll simply be available for free. Well, not really free, maybe “already paid for" is a better description. Also, Forge Reply offers a mid-season pass, so if you waited to buy the original season pass but ended up buying Act 2 at full price, you can still get a discount on the remaining Acts. It’s a really nice way of doing the whole season pass thing. For more on the first two acts of Joe Dever’s Lone Wolf, check out our review, and look for Act 3 later this week.
The big thing that turned me off with this was the forced pvp in questing zones. When they finally added in badges that you could purchase to opt out of pvp, I thought it was time to jump back in, but then I discovered that those badges were purchased with the iap currency and only lasted for a day. Haven't touched it since. Have they offered a way to opt out of pvp that doesn't cost $2 a day or whatever the price was? Because nothing is more fun than being asked for money when you say you're tired of max level players killing your mid level guy when trying to do a simple quest of collecting demo horns or whatever.
Played it when it first cam out and it was great. Stopped playing when it became a money grab...took all the fun out of it.
As far as I remember, the war free brand lasts for 1 hour only. There is a way around: grind the 2 levels for which you normaly have to do some quests in a pvp zone. It's not that bad, imo. This game have some serious other problems though which are far more worse than this one here.
Oh, one hour, not one day. Sheesh, even worse than I remembered it being, lol. Yeah, I could just skip certain quests to avoid the areas with forced pvp and grind instead, but that's a fun killer for me rather than a solution. I'm a quester and would like to complete them all without having to keep paying or keep getting stomped over and over by PKs camping the area. And yeah, the game does have other big problems, but the pvp thing was the main frustration I had.
You can buy a 30 day war free brand now.
Oh cool, so you can pay (at much higher price, I imagine) once a month to opt out of being slaughtered by high level players while questing? How convenient!
Exactly
Or you can dream about living in a world where ignorant children have more mature ways to get their kicks. I love pvp as much as the next guy, but the ONLY people who camp lowbies are people who get picked on irl and can't defend themselves so they take out their anger in a game. Which is even worse since we can't pick back.
Same people that pull wings off flies and have to "take" their sexual relations. Usually end up in prison or dead.
Played this game for over two years and was in a great guild. I quit playing because of lottery ticket loot drops, meaning getting items was like playing the lottery. Then when you would see people running around in a full set of something first day of release of new content you begin to wonder what is up. Then the documentation of Gameloft employees taking money to give people gear and all the corrupt crap that went with it. I wrote this game off a long time ago and never looked back. It was so much fun but I refuse to support Gameloft anymore after all they and corrupt employees have pulled.
Also players who have gotten the game get 150 Runes free and this other thing but I forgot what it was
A golden pet dragon. ;)
*dragon pet
How do I get it? I got my runes but i don't know how to access the pet
It should be in your mailbox.
Anymore they have a system that just gives you pretty great gear whenever you reach a certain experience level with your character. Though it may seem like a generous gift, it just makes it hard to get an edge over anyone else by even grinding now. IAP seems the only way to excel at this game.
Hmm, now to figure out what to take off my phone to put this on. Question before I do: is it online play only? Or is there offline play?
It's an mmorpg.....
Yeah, I realized a few minutes after I posted that it's Order and Chaos ONLINE.
Online only. Your progress is saved online so you don't lose anything if you delete it. It's my "get 2GB of space back" emergency game to delete if I run out of space for photos and videos.
The pain of only having ~6.5 GB (out of 8) usable memory and most of it being used by songs and the couple of games I play. Only three things above 220 MB, and they're all also 700+
Lmao get a 128gb 6 plus guiz
I quitted OC about a year ago, before that I grind dungeons every day. But there were several terrible glitch outbreak that almost destroy the environment. People can literally get that epic weapon within minutes that you grind for months. And now the game goes free? That means it's going for IAP, which was already freaking excessive a year ago! Good luck with that.
I'm lovin it, though I feel bad for the people who purchased the game.
I still cant play it either cuz iPod Touch 4th gen sux balls
I love when blizzard fanboys make excuses about tech limitations stopping wow from coming to ios and blizzard saying their needs to be an "epiphany" for it to work (from an interface perspective). Umm hello. This has been running fine on devices for years. No one expects a 1:1 port but if gameloft can do this, blizzard can do one better np.
They're losing out on SO much by ignoring it. With the iphone 6 and the A8 chip I don't doubt we can even run a 1:1 now.
Wish they would release wow for mibile sooo baddd
Oh, and touch arcade. Please verify my email for me. Att is so generous they actually filter my emails for me. Even the ones I want! Theyre so thorough they just block them entirely! Saves me the trouble of clearing out my spam folder (even though only morons get spam)
But yea - that was sarcasm FTR (up to the morons part)
