Updates Changelog

From iRO Wiki Classic
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This is a work in progress of several changes that came with (very) old patches that marked a major change in RO game play. For an idea of how long iRO took to get updates, see iRO Updates.

Alpha

Ragnarok Online (English version) began as a free 100~160 MB download with scattered patches rather than scheduled maintenances.

There were only five first classes, although the sprites for Magician were in the game client. The classes were: Swordman, Thief, Archer, Merchant, and Acolyte. Swordmen were the best at MVPing due to their high HP and ability to equip Plate Mail, the strongest armor, while Acolytes were the worst character as skills were not yet implemented. Users began as a Novice with a cotton shirt and knife in north Prontera.

Hair was animated while performing actions (such as attacking), and was "built into" the sprite (each class and gender had set hair an a set hair colour). Some sprites also had headgears: thieves wore modified goggles, the female archer wore a hairband, the female merchant wore something similar to a hairband, the male merchant wore a bandana, and acolytes wore berettas.

Players were only able to gain base levels. The original experience requirements also had more linear growth curves, so although more experience points were needed at lower levels, much less was needed overall to reach 99. The job level on the status window stayed at '0'.

  • Other
No guilds (no Emperium either?), Elu/Ori stones in game but upgrading not possible, cards in game but effects unknown and unable to compound.
Players party would be shown beside their name (despite being "guildless").
Status ailments not implemented.
External programs were not looked down upon (i.e. exp viewers) until the ghost bug, which was blamed on Arsenic's ArseKit (Previously "hacks" had been linked to on all major forums, following this they were removed; mid 2002)
Removal of Prontera Castle caves (where Doppelganger, Elder Willows, etc spawned)
Loki a few months into 2002
Flee dropping when more than 2 monsters are attacking a player, rather than infinite dodge
Soft def reworked
Training Grounds introduced at some point. Would enter the castle, then talk to the man behind the desk to begin. There were also three portals outside that led to Moroc, Payon, Prontera.
Still no elements are weak to poison, they either take less damage from it or it does not affect them
Archer Skeleton hit nerf and related changes not implemented.
  • Skills
Teleport was 10 skill levels, and Warp Portal was not usable until level 8. Pneuma was not implemented.
Improve Concentration did nothing.
Double Strafe did not take arrows and did not require equipped bow.

Aqua Benedicta disabled (could still put points into it).
  • Exploits & Programs
Pre-February 2002
Speed hack (fixed quickly)
Autopot program
Arsenic's program (bypass filters, change name to anything while talking)
ArseKit (no disconnect, etc)
Artfort's bot and ragboost.exe, both sent the user's username and password to a character in game which resulted in many people losing their accounts
Post-Loki
Arsenic's equip hack (allowed for equipping items in any equip spot)
Main duping incident where one could deal another user an item and then rollback their character
Roll backs on log off, allowing for more duping, which was fixed without first kicking everyone off the servers

ro-world shut down, February 2002

First Beta 2 (July 16, 2002)

This version was not open for very long as it was announced August 2nd, 2002 that iRO would be shut down for 3 months. When servers re-opened, the Closed Beta 2 period would commence. This was due to the servers having so many problems since July 16th.

Classes: 2-1 classes.
Hair: -
Headgear: -
Reset Status: Characters were kept through this transition. Any unequipped items were lost, and the amount of zeny limited by character level (level*10k ?). No announcement was made regarding equipped items staying through the transition until after the servers went down. Stats and skills were reset (all stats were taken to "1", thus bypassing the character creation minimum stat point allocation).
Cost: Free.

  • Misc
Acolytes warping people to GH (not accessible, map only had a few Mysts; could warp there with packet editting)
Infamous Dancer screenshot surfaced in July 2002, most likely fake (SP and HP bars and points did not add up, etc).
July 24 - missing characters began
Alignment system (as explained in other Beta 2 updates, i.e. for jRO). The bottom 5% players would have their names displayed in red. You could only use one good and one bad point per day. You could also only give the same person a point per month (month? definitely not the next day).
The amount of exp per level was adjusted and raised, as were existing characters:
Level 43 -> 34
Level 99 -> mid 60ish
MVPs buffed and no longer respawn instantly. Previously had 5000-10000 max HP.

Hello this is Ragnarok Online Operation Team.
We inform you that the re-opening of international server will
bring away the Beta 2 at the same time.
Meanwhile the pre-arranged opening time has changed
from July 9 into July 16,Tuesday 10:00(Korean Standard Time)
especially concerning the New Client Downloading Period of players
and other conditions.
Thank you.

Late July:
Guys How are you all today?
Although at least I have to excuse about the unreasonable
Server shutdown,Please let me just say 'My Apologies'.
Furthermore I heard many rumors around,
but as long as we didn't state them,all of them are nothing but scum bags,worthless to believe.
Simple server was out of control on last Sunday and
we didn't have much time to pay attention due to the Korean Commercial then.
And now apart from your all comdemnation
Gravity has been shunned a lot due to the korean Commercial trial failed yesterday.
So spare us gathering another breath for a moment and encourage us to recover our energy.
we planned to open the international server on this afternoon (approximately),
no more worries no more censures for now.
Personally I apologise that i count not take a look on the BBS recently.
I was busy enough to do my job and another things,
i moved the department again to the Development Team from the Operation Team.
So last weekand this week will be the most important term for me.
Theis might be the hopeful news to you, we are looking for 3 SubGMs to perform English Game Masters
instead of me,
If you know anyone who is Korean living in Korea and well-spoken in English,just let me know via
english@gravity.co.kr
Unfortunately we can't afford to hire Non-koreans at this moment
(Because SubGMs won't work for me but work for the Korean Operation Team,they are required to speak

Korean Very Fluently.)

I inoform this information will be applicable for Koreans.
July 29, prior to announcing RO would instead be down for 3 months
Hello this is Ragnarok Online Operation Team.
First off we apologise that we cannot promise a time for the Server Opening.
But it doesn't mean we are going to give up the International server and it doesn't mean it will take as much time as one week or two.
At the same time we are dealing with the difficulty to open the International Server, unexpected bad situations have occurred.
Please understand we will take as much time as we need.
Once again, the International server will be closed until the Further Notice.

Hi,This is Christy Kay,IRO Game Master.
I guess this might be the first time I've ever mentioned on
the French Fansite.
It is honoured for me to get a chance to face all IRO fans,
also I am appreciate for Luno the administrator to allow me to
talk on his site.
On behalf of Gravity,
I want to say thank-you to all of you that you're always showing great interest in Ragnarok even though it has been down for months.
To be honest,if IRO is back on the road,
YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SEE YOUR OLD CHARACTERS EVER AGAIN.
We're planning to set out anew IRO,of course it will be better than used to be(it should be).
Nothing except this,has been settled down yet,
it is a pity that I can't release more news about IRO issue.
By the way,Thai RO is running well.
Asiasoftnet and Gravity shut down the closed beta on 15th already.
Now it is under preparation for the open beta.
I am going to Thailand with my associate Rex and the engineer on Monday next week.I am not sure how many weeks I will stay but it is for supporting Asiasoftnet and Thai players(I will be there like 12 weeks or less).
Hopefully we bring a great version of Ragnarok in Thailand,
so that many thai players will join us sooner or later.
People in Asiasoftnet are very kind,nice and ardent to settle Thai RO.Thai GMs are fine,polite and humorous.
I enjoy working with all of them and will do.
=) I think that's all for today.
See you in Thailand.

International Ragnarok Game Master &
Senior of Foreign Tech Support Team,

Hello this is the international RO game master team.
First of all,we appreciate all of our global fans to wait for us with patience during last 3 months and are
glad to announce that IRO will be back again,in the form of Closed Beta.
Before we inform the detailed information needed for volunteering for the IRO closed beta,
there are some issues that we hope you will understand.
First we decided to charge testers the minimum game maintenance fee including server maintenance at IDC,internet backbone lines and other official requirements.
Secondly every information and game data belong to the last open beta,such as accounts,personal information and characters will be totally wiped out this time and
it means volunteers must newly apply onto the closed beta.
Please understand that we do this to provide desirable renewed environment to our global fans,to stablize game servers and to identify/confirm/manage our future customers efficiently.
Meanwhile we"re deeply sprry for a long delay and poor service quality during the past open beta.
From now on,we will try to manage IRO in a better way than before.
Thank you for the cooperation.

IRO GM Team,
Gravity Corp.
Hello this is IRO GM Team.
Precisly we are looking for SubGMs who will support the chief GM to manage IRO,
but unfortunately we have no plan to hire in abroad `for now".
We need someone living in Korea,who speaks fabulous Korean as well as English
for SubGMs right now because we stay in Korea.
But of course we have a plan to expand our branch in the states in near future,
it means we will need native speakers for IRO GM Team to operate Games
more closely to our customers.
If there is someone who want to volunteer for GM Team in abroad,
please check our official webboard frequently.
When we settle down every policy related to the law of overseas labor and the USA
Branch, we will announce our plan at that moment.
Thank you for the cooperation.

  • The fan book led to the huge scam by Gravity where many people from iRO paid for it yet the book was never released.
  • Fabre bug on first day (training grounds and thief quest fabres reset base exp to 0 (if any had been gained) and gave a ton of job experience)
  • RO was constantly down, for days at a time in December
  • In January Christy announced that registration for Closed Beta would re-open for people who missed it on January 6th. She also warned players that she would start banning them for illegal behaviour. Introduced 3 day bans for mob training. Other RO versions already had these systems.

Second Period of Closed Beta (February 21, 2002 - March 28, 2003)

This Beta phase was only going to last a month, and again cost $10 for the phase.

  • v2002.2.21 beta

  • A few new monsters (15-20), two new maps (Glast Heim finally accessible)
  • Marc card not working
  • Ended March 28, 2003
March 11, 2003

Movement-increasing properties no longer stack, except for Pecos. i.e. Moonlight Flower card now acts as Increase Agility and will not stack with said skill
