Champions of Norrath., **next PSO**? Options

[Riel]

I'm going to pick up this game when it hits at the end of this month.Many are saying this is the next PSO,it plays the same almost,4 people per team online.Not sure if the Lobbies will be as cool as PSO though but the game is getting great reviews everywhere.I think it's PS2 Broadband only...only bad thing is that the game saves on the memory card...we all know what can happen because of this.

There's a playable demo in the new Official Playstation Magazine,i will pick it up this weekend and give my impressions if anyone is interested.

Will the servers prevent cheaters?

There's no way for the servers to tell if anyone is cheating. Since there is no "peer vs. peer" combat, if someone is cheating it will only affect his or her game. As such, there has been nothing put in place to prevent people from duplicating characters or items or hacking into their character to give themselves huge amounts of experience or gold.

For anyone who doesn't want to cheat and plans on playing with friends, this is not a concern. When going online, the best method is trial and error for choosing playing partners. If people have unusually high levels and walk through levels like a hot knife through butter, then what's the point? Connect with other honest gamers who want to play for real."

Nice..........
