I’m happy to inform everyone that the programmers from Gravity arrived today in Manila from Seoul, South Korea. They will be working here until they resolve the issues that have been hounding Philippine Ragnarok Online for the past weeks – especially the connectivity and disconnection problems of Valkyrie Server! This has been a thorn on our side since we launched Valkyrie and it’s about time that this gets finally fixed.
In the coming days, they’ll start out by evaluating all the hardware and program applications of the game. After that, they’ll know the problem and work on it until it gets fixed. I can’t promise yet a definite timeline but I can assure everyone that Gravity is giving their 100% to solve the problem.
I’ll try to get pictures of them on Monday when I get back to the office so I can show them to you guys. Maybe if you see them on the street you can give them some food or something to encourage them to work double time, hehe (labo ampf).
Anyway, I’m off to Bataan this weekend. I’ll be back Sunday afternoon. Hope everyone enjoys their weekend! Cheers!

Can’t wait to see them, para mabigyan ng jjampong to encourage them to work double time..

Eto ang sira ng Valhalla
1. Ang tindi ng lag pag siege. Pag lumagpas na sa 1k ang pop ng Valhalla, di na halos makagalaw o makalakad pag siege.
2. Hypermart Items di nasta-stack up. If you buy 10 arrow quiver naooukupahan ang mga slots. hassle ito sa pagdadala.
3. Acolyte/Super Novice skill points na nawala nang alisin ang teleport
4. Rachel Sanctuary sarado pa rin.
5. Walang safety limit ang upgrading ng normal oridecon at elinunium.
The Angel-Killer on January 26, 2008
just like what Tychus Findlay sed it on the trailer: “HELL, ITS ABOUT TIME!!!” hahahaha
hmm, i just hope all issues (not just valky) will get fixed..it seems kc all servers ang may problema huhuhuhu
Doppelganger on January 26, 2008
Mr. Wauks exactly how long will they be staying ? you said in your previous post that hackers work on a 24/7 basis, even if they fixed the problem what makes you think that it won’t come back again ?
Kiehl on January 26, 2008
Sweet, a little error though, Sir Wauks. Programmers not Progammers.
And I lol’d hard at this, ” Maybe if you see them on the street you can give them some food…”
Nagmukha tuloy silang pulubi or something.
pong on January 26, 2008
Good Luck! for them but F2P is the source of all these problems. Just made things easier for the hackers coz they have nothin to loose and everything to gain. Those programmers would be better off touring the country with the other tourist.
Doom on January 26, 2008
ang lag kanina ng siege sa baldur tas biglang mawawala ka sa guild imagine mo ma ec ka tas mapatay ng kaguild what a bug paki resolve po
xchan on January 27, 2008

Castigador on January 27, 2008
A temporary bot fix would be a GREAT bonus.
Rocky on January 27, 2008
“Maybe if you see them on the street you can give them some food or something to encourage them to work double time, hehe (labo ampf).”
Haha this one’s comedy gold, Waukeen. You should include it in your WTF moments.

Mr Ople we are having a really hard time playing in Valhalla ever since you guys rammed that awful server down our (Thorens’) throats.
•lag begins (always) at 8:00am and ends (always) at 11:00pm, no matter how many players are logged in. Common sense will say that this has nothing to do with population. Last new year’s eve we had a population of 700 at around 11:45, NO LAGS. It is, however, laggy, even with just 600+ players anytime between the mentioned times.
•We Thoreans also experience disconnection problems, especially during sieges. My guildmate’s account got suspended just because it got dc’ed almost 50 times in 1 hour, the system thought her account was in soulless (BOT) mode.
•Any chance you can get the Koreans fix up your Customer Service guys? If there are bots in the real world, your guys are. All they do is cut-and-paste from a template seldom providing at least a partial solution to a problem.
•And like Lola Artemis said, we were promised that the rachel sanctuary will be left open. It is only open for us who did the quests back during the (much preferred) Thor days. Also, you guys still owe us 2 skill points each for our acolyte characters who lost the Teleport skill after the forced server migration.
•UPDATES ON RO2!!! YAAAAYYY!!!! =D

@12th degree of insanity
Well maybe if you see them on the street and give them food then maybe they’ll fix it, eh?

hindi po yan bug, remember same lang server settings ng Valhalla and Valkyrie. Ang pinagkaiba lang e walang PK feature ang Valhalla.
hype on January 27, 2008
sarap mag pa-asa ng lvlup, aayusin daw amf. tagal na nyan mga bug na yan, october pa ganyan ang valk, dupe sa comm servers wala pa rin. kakatamad na. sana sa pRO2 wala bot at may mga active na GMs para mag gala. wala naman pag asa na yan mga yan!
Night on January 27, 2008
Sir Wauks, a bit OT but please check moonlight ring effect, it says +3% to aspd and I have around 167 base aspd w/ katar and 174 base aspd w/o any weapons, w/ a Katar, 3% of the 167 base aspd should yield a +5 in aspd but when I equip it, it only gives +1 aspd >__<

Not really a big issue but im’a still bring it up ^_^;
Reminder only for the name change that former Chaos, Saarh and (dunno if it was odin or fenrir) citizens deserve.

Titan / Minorus Card Problem:
http://ragnaboards.levelupgames.ph/index.php?showtopic=75914
i hope this gets fixed soon.
filed a ticket.. no answer. if ever there’ll be one.. too late.
please check out the link guys.. i dont know if it affects u guys, but it bothers me.
and a little transparency on the goings-on please.. a little official statements perhaps?
The Angel-Killer on January 29, 2008
@jhomz :: ahm, have you tried selling the nokia phones to the NPC? i think that will work (just like the red and yellow key of thanatos tower)
@all :: grabe..i think a virus attacked level-up this time kc of all the problems happening not just in the valkyrie realm but also in the commercial realms. imagine ah, eversince valk came in, problems occur and worse, when thor became valhala, things really get complicated REAL BIG TIME… not to mention the dozens of bugs found on the game script X_x..major bummer… i REALLY hope gravity will be able to fix all of this and in the end, compensate us all. mas kawawa ang commercial servers kc its P2P…sayang ang time (mas lalo na ang running time 1wik or 1month load)
bdw, change name topic afterwards pls.? people in chaos, odin and sarah (odin po un ROplayer^_^
) who wants their name change are at a distress side…nalulugi cla X_X
Crimsonflash on January 29, 2008
Do something about the bot issues and every human player in Valhalla will be happy..
