Anyone here familiar with RF Online?

The main premise of the game is that you're in a race-war, either belonging to a race of humans-turned-robots, elves with mostly magic, or Dwarves utilizing both. Each race has their own race-specific classes.

 

The Accretian Empire (humans-turned-robots) have rocket-launchers and flame-throwers.

The Bellato Union use Massive Armored Units, basically mechs that can either use melee or ranged weapons.

The Holy Alliance of Cora can summon entities who can help deal damage, tank monsters, or heal.

 

Accretian Tank-build and Launcher, and Bellato Pilot has to be my favorites.

 

Every 8 hours, there would be a chip-war. Basically you have to take control of the mining area for crafting resources. Needless to say, it got me hooked to RPGs with heavy crafting and levelling.

 

I used to play this game a lot back in 2008-2009. Never spent a penny back then since I wasn't that much into subscribing for the double exp and loots.

 

I jumped back into the game in 2011 and 2020, but the private servers would close after a year or so.

 

It used to be subscription-based, but they made it F2P and put a cash shop on it, with PVP-heavy perks such as 40% damage and defence potions, true-sight, teleportations to bossfights, etc.

 

In 2011, we still had the auction machines, but now it's mostly pay-to-win. Which sucks considering you have to pay at least $60 to fully enjoy the game the fact that it's a PVP-based game, so your could be in a losing side for quite a long time. I was able to ask the admins to move me to the other race, for a smaller fee. But, it's still pay-to-win regardless.

 

 

There's a concept for an updated version of this game with modernized combat and navigation. Combat feels like a mix of Final Fantasy and Warframe.
