An announcement from CM Jay's Blog:

Good Day to all CABALists, we will be moving the OPENING of the LEVEL CAP and SKILL CAP for CABAL Online to July 1^st. The new CAP will be Level 120 and Skill Rank Completer. This is to give way for more gamers to achieve [Level 100] and to halt the rampant use of BOT Programs. We are expecting a fix from our game developers soon, so it would be best to wait for the fix until Level cap is set to Level 120. The GMs will be very vigilant in banning all gamers found guilty of using 3^rd Party Programs We encourage all gamers to please report all abusive gamers in our forums site- Quarantine Sections.

For the meantime, please do check out the new CABAL PETS and Premium Items to customize the faces, hair colours of your Characters.

Do you spend more than 3hrs on your local net cafe? Do you usually hear your friends call you "ADIK!"? Or you just simply sit down to play after a stressful day at work? I took the Bartle Test to find out what kind of gamer I am...and this is what i found out:

AESK

AESK players are interested in the player-versus-environment aspect of the game more than anything else. They are often soloists who want to achieve and see what the world has to offer. Often, they find groups cumbersome and PVP to be more an annoyance than a feature.

Breakdown: Achiever 80.00%, Explorer 46.67%, Killer 33.33%, Socializer 40.00%

History

Ragnarok Online has been up and running since June 1, 2003. The game is not a new one to the massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) scene. Ragnarok online's strength seems to be in its capacity for humor or as the company refered to it in a recent press release: the game's quirkeyness has been expanded.

Summary

Company Line

GRAVITY INTERACTIVE LAUNCHES CULTURALLY-THEMED EXPANSIONS FOR RAGNAROK ONLINE

MARINA DEL REY, Calif. – September 27, 2004 – Gravity Interactive’s launch of Amatsu for Ragnarok Online marks the first in a series of free expansions to the game based on different cultural settings. Amatsu opens up the world of Japanese folklore and legend for Ragnarok players.

Each expansion will include new maps, building designs, clothing and monsters based on actual or mythical elements from major Eastern and Western civilizations. In addition, NPCs will tell players about the history, folklore and traditions of each culture. For instance, in Amatsu, players can wander through fields of cherry blossoms on their way to battle tengu (Japanese mountain and forest goblins). Many of the buildings in Amatsu are derived from actual Japanese palaces and pagodas, complete with gardens and reflection pools.

Ragnarok Online has one of the world’s largest MMORPG communities with millions of people playing in more than 100 countries. Because of that diverse community of players, Gravity is providing content that appeals to people in multiple geographic regions.

Many MMORPGs on the market draw subject matter from a single, or very few cultural contexts. In contrast, the Ragnarok culture-specific expansions will be inspired by multiple world traditions. This will allow local players to see familiar and comfortable subject matter that confirms to the interests, their likes and dislikes, which have been influenced by the society in which they live. This will also provide foreign players with a more diverse game that incorporates novel elements from other cultures. The core Ragnarok game draws its inspiration from Norse mythology.

Gravity plans to continuously supply free expansions and updates to Ragnarok Online. Several culturally themed expansions are already in development. The next expansion in the series is currently in beta testing and will be available in a few months. Amatsu is composed of five new Japanese themed regions/maps to explore. Clothing and buildings are based on historical styles and real world structures from Japan. Several now monsters derived from Japanese folklore such as the karakasa, tengu and kapha populate the expansion.

Two technical updates were also recently added to Ragnarok to coincide with the launch of Amatsu. The total number of characters per server for each account was increased from 3 to 5. A graphical sprite addition was introduced to improve particle effects for weapons.
