It's one of the IT giants in China. Oakpacific, who owns: mop.com, one of the best community in China renren.com, one of the best SNSes in China, similar to fb donews.com, one of the best IT news site in China, similar to techcrunch and etc... it's not related with any gold farmers at all. what would you like to say then? if players choose to stay in a game like this, that means they really like it. Marketing is just a method to make more ppl know its existance... why don't you blame Apple when you are watching their ads about the stupid Ipad? because it's not from China. right? haha focusing only on ads, gold farmers or China itself can't make it even a tiny little better for the western world to even dalay a little the steps of Chinese companies expansion.... what western game developers or publishers should do is to spend as much as those Chinese companies on marketing, lower the cost on developing games, improve game quality, and offer better service... or, the whole online entertainment market over the world will be taken by China soon, just as what you are seeing... Only loosers choose to hide here blaming on non-related things and wailing uselessly... One last thing is, this game certainly is published in the name of an US company. It pays tax to US government. Since Chinese government won't get even a penny from this game, why don't you blame US, a beneficiary of this game. haha Stop masturbating mentally here! That doesn't help at all. Oh, I forgot to say.... I'm a Chinese. haha, u suckers... Let me tell you who’s behind it…

It’s one of the IT giants in China. Oakpacific, who owns:

it’s not related with any gold farmers at all. what would you like to say then?

King Tue, 19 Jan 2010 17:22:02 +0000 http://www.bruceongames.com/?p=2091#comment-7449 There are various differences between Empire Craft and the other MMOs mentioned in the article -- all of them showing Empire Craft in a poor light. Passing over game play issues and the English that's so poor that it's often impossible to work out how to play, you should check Empire Craft's forums, and look at the stream of people who paid money for "Diamonds", tried to use the Diamonds, and didn't get the in-game goods they were promised. Then look at the way those people are treated by the Forum mods.

That fool must have spent good money to get where he was, now I'm a monthly target for him to level up even higher. The game is for rich turbo nerds.

WoW is like a DJ of myth... and one that can't keep the songs in key. they're ripping off mythos and artists from other ages, not other games. Btw... where are all the good, safe MMORTS to replace this garbage? I would love to find some safe games that I can play while MMORPGing. >:D Might I remind some of you that WoW is mostly considered the biggest rip-off in mmo history, with the record for gold-farming bots.

Ad still there. When I'm bored, I play Empire Craft on server four, but I'll never yield them a dime. It's such a rip-off. And I admit their ubiquitous ads are annoying as hell, but at least they haven't resorted to half-naked women like Evony. I mean, I was expecting half-naked women, not a ridiculously boring MMO, lol. Their characters are apparently WoW rips, so in the design contest, I was going to provide to them something more original. I don't even know what they did with the submissions, but that's okay because I was too late. You know what, speaking of rips, what about WoW? So what if it's cool, it digs ten feet into your finances. Then if you're institutionalized and you payed for however many months. You may as well die, but you're in the insanoplex and no one will let you. AHHH, nightmare in Hell. Ha, ha. Ad still there.
