Default The future of Guild Wars?

http://www.dungeonrunners.com/commun...ng_begins.html

lol, $4.99 to stack potions

"Stackable potions - taking up far less room in your inventory and therefore allowing space for many more potions than normal (you’ll need ‘em where you’re going) and of course for all that lovely loot"-Dungeon Runners™

*Edit*
Ya, but the thing I don't understand is why offer the game for free anyway? I mean, I would give it a try when it comes out, but there is going to be a very wide variety of "1337" vs. "newb" player discrimination going on, all because one can stack potions and the others can't.

Membership billing goes live! January 31st 2007

We’ve come to the point in our grand experiment known as Dungeon Runners where we need to test billing and you are our guinea pig!
That sounds so wrong.

I wouldn't say it sucks, compared some of the other beta games out there, dungeon runners is ace...ie have you tried regnum online? Now that sucks.

Man...That looks so bad that it makes me want to cry. That's like anti-MMO. You won't need to eBay it because, damn, they offer it under the "From The Devs" tab.

It's rather embarassing, really...Like seeing your dad suck at a video game; it gives that teary feeling.

Wait, GW has the whole buy extra character slots thing right? So how is that the same as buy stackable potions thing? I missed something, someone please explain for me. I am inebriated at the moment.

I'm in the closed beta of Dungeon Runners too and it's an okay game, but not that great. Still okay and enjoyable when you have nothing to do. Basically, it's a simple online dungeon crawler somewhat similar to Titan Quest if that's how I should describe it.









The art and graphics of this game does actually look a little similar to WoW :P

I was actually gonna say "stacking potions saves your space", making it unfair to other players - but so does an extra character slot.

HE HAS A POINT!

However, this game takes it to the next (horrid) level:

" * Access to all top level armor, weapons and items. Not only will you be more powerful than non-members, with superior stats - you’ll also look cooler than them as irrefutably determined by our science team**.
* Stackable potions - taking up far less room in your inventory and therefore allowing space for many more potions than normal (you’ll need ‘em where you’re going) and of course for all that lovely loot
* Log-in queue priority. If the Dungeons are full, you jump to the head of the log-in queue. Enjoy a rush of superiority as you glide by the ‘common people’.
* Hold on to more stuff! Members get access to the Dungeon Runners bank – essentially a storage facility. As you know, you pick up a LOT of stuff in Dungeon Runners. Imagine being forced to sell or simply drop loot just because your inventory is maxed out and there’s nowhere else to keep your stuff. That would suck. This prevents or at least alleviates the suckage."

So if we're pretending this is Guild Wars, being "Elite Status" will give you Obsidian armor wither better stats, access to the Xunlai Agent, and being able to stack stuff.

Yuck.

Haha... just thinking of guildwars without being able to stack stuff makes me laugh. A whole inventory of glittering dust worth 150g. I'd be pissed.

Dungeon Runners isn't too bad compared to other games that are in the beta phase now. The game is like Diablo but 3d...I'm in the beta of the game btw.
There are a variety of item potency depending on the rarity. f2p gets
You can always get the 2nd rarest best items easily with King's Coins or if you a free player...get these items and sell to the merchant for $$$. Stackable potions is a joke really...Come on...you have Waywarp Scrolls to get back to town...
