Asiasoft Online launches English version of Warriors of the 3 Kingdoms (W3KSEA) eventer Oct 28th, 09, 10:33 AM #1 (permalink)
Singapore, 27th October 2009 – The online entertainment leader in Southeast Asia, Asiasoft Online today announces the launch of the Worldwide Closed Beta Testing (“CBT”) for Warriors of the 3 Kingdoms SEA (www.W3KSEA.com) from 27th October to 2nd November 2009.

Asiasoft Online is proud to present Warriors of the 3 Kingdoms (W3KSEA), the first English Massively-Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) based on the well-known Chinese Literary Classic, Romance of the Three Kingdoms (三国演义).

Previously, games based on the popular novel were available only in Chinese. With the launch of this English version of W3KSEA, Asiasoft Online hopes to cater to the needs of gaming communities worldwide. Apart from the visually stunning skill effects and combat sequences, it also offers gamers the choice of using both keyboard and mouse, or a joypad, to join in the epic power struggles between the three nations.

For the first time, there will be two separate phases in CBT: Level Achievement Challenge and Various Wars Try-Out. In Level Achievement phase, gamers who reach a minimum of level 25 will get to retain their character’s in-game name (IGN), and rewarded with W3KCash and in-game currency at the start of Open Beta Testing (OBT).

In Various Wars Try-Out, gamers will receive a new higher-level character to partake in the various wars at scheduled timings. There will be three different wars - Resource War, Nation War and Uprising War, for players to be part of the historical battles and experience the engaging and immersive W3KSEA environment. During one of the Resource Wars, Game Masters (GMs) will join in the fun while imparting a few tips and tricks to gamers at the same time.

Gamers can now create their W3KSEA game accounts via the W3KSEA website, with the DVD game client sent via postal mail shortly after. The client is also downloadable via various channels on the W3KSEA game site. Alternatively, gamers can also visit selected @Cash retail outlets to obtain the game clients (While stocks last!). For more information, please log on to www.W3KSEA.com.

Played for about an hour.

Gameplay is like playing a MMO-DynastyWarrior thing.
UI sucks.
I think all NPC speak chinese, with english subtitles.
Some npc has boxes for speech.

Hi guys, I tried the game and it is not too bad. Besides it is Closed Beta Testing at this moment, let's see if there are any improvement after OBT.

It is pretty bad in my opinion, not too bad is a rating too kindly for it. But you're right about how it's closed beta, some games do take off better if the developers are inclined to do something about it. I doubt it's any time soon.

The UI is bad, the controls are clunky, if it wants to emulate Dynasty Warriors, they should have done it better, control and camera wise. And seriously, play the chinese version, the bad translations in the english version is likely to kill you if you are concerned about details. The horror, for what the translations are like, I might as well be playing the chinese server. (I decided against downloading the chinese server after a few moments recalling my experience in it)

The chinese voiceovers are pretty impressive though (much like koei games), misplaced in the english server. I had it on for 1 hour and decided it isn't worth my time for now. I'll check in on it on a much much later date where perhaps it gets some magic dust to make it fly.
