Ragnarok 2: Making of the Yoko Kanno OST
The developers of Ragnarok 2, the most anticipated MMORPG in the Philippines, hired world renowned Japanese composer Yoko Kanno to do the in-game soundtrack. She’s best known for her work in anime titles like Cowboy Bebop or Ghost In A Shell. When I was at the Gravity Festival, I was able to buy a copy of the RO2 OST and I wasn’t really disappointed with what I got. Yoko Kanno is simply brilliant and you’ll know what I mean when you log-in Ragnarok 2. The music is engaging and it definitely helps set the mood for the various stuffs that you have to do while you’re in the land of Rune-Midgard. I was able to find a video on Youtube about the making of the Ragnarok 2 OST and I’d like to share it with everyone here.

PARA SA IT TO… di ko maisip kung pano babagsak RO unless galawin nila ang connection… kalokohan na kung anong sasabihin nyo… naka up ang digicel… naka up ang mga taga pilipinas… may sinisiraan ba kayong GM na taga ibang bansa para hindi maka lahok ng particular event?… or trip nyo lang kasi nga naman x3 ngayon… mas masarap mang-asar ng tao lalu na yung hindi makakaganti… ASA… iniisip ko rin… wala ba kayong disaster recovery man lang… yung tipong pag bumagsak ang isang linya may extra… naisip nyo ba yun?… ano nga palang ginagawa nyop pag walang maintenance… nagbibilang ng blink ng ilaw sa router?… or baka tama si richer nung sabihin nya nag dodownload kayo ng porn… baka naman meron kayong time kahit konti lang na ayusin ito… narinig nyo na ba yung SMA? bago ba sa pan dinig? ang ibig sabihin nun ay Service Maintenance Agreement… dun nakikita kung bagsak performance nyo or hindi… meron ba kayo nun… explain kong mabuti para malaman nyo… isa dapat sa item sa SLA Chart ay Internation Connection Up Time per month… ang passing grade dapat at 99.98 to 99.99… iyon ang industry standard na passing grade… ibig sabihin count mo numbers ng days sa month, multiplied by 24 hours iyon ang total hours na operating nyo… marunong naman kayong mag multiply di ba… multiply by .9999 is equal to uptime ng international connection… ganun dapat naka up ang palagi ang connection… pag bumaba duon, bagsak kayo sa performance…gets nyo na… take note tagalog na to ha… bukod sa International Connection Uptime meron ding ibang items like… Customer Service Respond, Power Uptime, Maintenance Time Average, Project Performance, Program Efficiency, etc… research nyo na lang sa internet kung pano compute ito… magaling naman kayong mag search di ba… iyon nga past time nyo eh…. o pano… ASA kami sa inyo as in ASA (Ang Sarap Asarin)

September 7th, 2007 at 7:07 am
therefore inform us GDI
September 7th, 2007 at 7:15 am
since mgaling ka nman ?????? ikaw mgexplain samin kung bkit down kmi at up sa phils.
September 7th, 2007 at 7:21 am
matanong kita @?????? naglalaro ka ba RO… if not shut up because you cannot relate…
“Walang magagawa ang mga nonsense rekamo nyo lm nyo ba yun?….” I believe pag mayproblema magreklamo para maayus….
“ano ba tingin nyo sa levelup tnga na walang paki sa mga games nila…” kaya nga nag aasar eh kasi naiinip kami walang ginawa anu ba…
“wala kasi kayong alam about technical problems and how like levelup corp. do dir jobs wag kayong mas yadong ma tahol kasi sila ang mas maraming alam kaysa sating mga gamerz na puro reklamadors.” Technical marami ako and most sa matataas na companya, this is how they do it by disaster recovery and SLA kaya nga nag share di ba… matanong kita… ikaw meron ba technical?… again kung hindi ka nag lalaro RO just shut up…
September 7th, 2007 at 7:28 am
UP na RO… Salamat IT… sorry sa pang aasar
September 7th, 2007 at 7:45 am

@Kramer, if your asking me if i’m playing RO…My Answer is 4 years. and ang prinsipyo mo is mag reklamo para ayusin?…I don’t think that makes a good sound for me. As you never know gaming corp. like levelupgames is doing the very best to resolve problem such as connection,glitch, and hacking.
example kung may isang problema ang RO at ang problema ay connecting difficulty..and tumawag lahat ng mga player sa CS and only 10 customer representative are present..and equal to players on RO has approx 20,000,00 player at a time. so how do you feel kung saby-sabay sila tatawag, edi sakit nun sa tenga at papausin ka..yan ang hirap sa mga NOOBS. D kc nila na kikita mga tao sa likod ng company…. kung nag trabaho lang kayo sa ganyang nature, ma iintindihan nyo sila….
Another things just to clear-up. I’ve don’t have any intention to pinpoint anyone. just because many people don’t have called “Patients”.
September 7th, 2007 at 12:18 pm
Da.. how do you know the problem if nobody is going to complain… and how are we going to complain if the connection is down… even the CS site your taking about is down… my point is connection is very unstable because RO does not have any disaster recovery. You mentioned 20M players… what is that got to do with anything, I did more that that figure you told me… how did that come about anyway… we are taking about servicing players better… how do you serve us better if you don’t take critism politely… people like you makes customers lives miserable… I have been in CS, I’ve been a QA Manager, was a IT Manager ang is currently the CIO of a big respective company… people talk to me shit sometimes… but i dont answer them back because “they don’t have patience” nor call them “reklamadors” It serves my point clearly to say… people like you need more education in Customer Service. What you should do is apologize and keep us inform and do not answer back with an attitude on your pocket. You see my little experiment about attitude at RO CS works… You wanna ask me about the grade… go figure brother… Sorry for the this flame Wauks… promise this is the last… i’ll copy this topic as a souvenir for my staffs to read… lol
