Rappelz Philippines Epic VI: Resurrection Closed Beta

I've always been a lazy-ass email guy. I rarely check my inbox for messages and when I do it's only when I need to send a message to someone. Anyway, I did checked it just now and guess what? I got an email from EagleGame patiently waiting there for at least 2 days. "Who's EagleGame", you said? Duh?! They're just the company behind the smash dance hit game "HighStreet 5". If you still don't know what I'm talking about then what the heck are you doing here on my blog?

Just kidding. ;)

Anyway, they emailed me to tell me about the new game they'll be releasing on closed beta this coming July 15. The game is Rappelz Epic VI:Resurrection. I've been a big fan of Highstreet 5 and I'm pretty much optimistic about this one. Here are some details I've come up so far about Rappelz Online (mostly from the documents they sent me)

RAPPELZ EPIC VI: RESURRECTION
...WHERE MASTER AND CREATURES FIGHT SIDE BY SIDE

Rappelz tells us about the comeback of the evil villain known as the "Witch". In order to defeat this menace, three races band together for one mission: to defeat the Witch and restore order to the land. The three epic clans of Rappelz are the Gaians, the Asuras and the Devas. Gamers will surely love the three distinct yet exceptional classes in the game; the fearless Gaians are the oldest inhabitants of the land who base their skills from the four forces of nature such as Earth, Wind, Fire and Water; the righteous Devas are the holy-based race who specialize in healing magic and defensive buffs and  finally, the cunning Asuras are masters of the dark magic with distinct offensive skills and high evasion.

The publisher of Rapelz Resurrection is the same guys who brought us Highstreet 5, EagleGame International Ltd. and developed by Gala Lab.

By the way, here is a copy of the press release they gave me. I figure it could give us more info on the Rapelz Online Closed Beta release:

Warcraft III patch 1.24e

Warcraft III patch 1.24e

Any maps created that are 6.62 and into the future will require the Warcraft 3 patch 1.24e or later. This is because of a massive coding change that required most of the map code to be re-written. Unfortunately this means any earlier versions of Warcraft 3 will not be able play the new map nor AI map.

[GUIDE] All about 1.24e

To the moderators: If possible, I'd like to keep all past versions of the map as attachments in this thread. Aside from doubling as a map archive, this practise will help me greatly in tracking down regressions between versions if I inadvertently introduce any. Hopefully the increasing version numbers and large download link at the top of this post should be sufficient enough to prevent confusion.

Changelog:
6.66b (v0.2141)
===============
-Rewrote Overpower and Summon Familiars to prevent AI crashes
-Undid the fix added for Pounce in 6.66b that was causing the game to crash
-Added a workaround for when AI attempt to attack a dropped Divine Rapier (item will be removed)
-Fixed AI from destroying the Aegis after having them attack Roshan

Original post:

First release, updated to 6.62 and 1.24b compliant. Note that this is v0.21, and there will be bugs.

Some abilities are not working for bots yet (they learn them but don't use them), and this is expected and will be addressed in future versions.

The following game modes have been disabled for now:
-vr, -rv, -rd, -cd, -cm, -lm, -xl

The following game commands have been disabled for now:
-afk, -kickafk, -ah, -switch, -fun

Please report bugs to me.

Things that are bugs:
-Crashes with reproducible reasons
-Abilities/items not working as expected (for players or bots)

Things that are not bugs:
-Bots not using certain abilities
-Bots being too strong/weak/cheating. They do that.

Thanks to Overflow_GR for his help on this version.

Enjoy!

Click here to download HD version.

Gameplay



The game is a tactical-RPG, meaning that you have to make tactical choices to succeed. You lead a team of up to four characters, which you can choose from 7 different character classes. The gameplay is divided into two sections - the Tavern area, where you manage your team, level up ,buy equipment, buffs and spells, and the Quest area, where you fight various monsters and perform other tasks to help the ones in need.



Each character has a set of skills he can learn while he levels up. With each level you can distribute points into skills, upgrading the ones you already knew or learning new ones. You will not be able to learn all the skills to their maximum levels, so you have to distribute the points in a way so that the character's development suits your style.



The game also features an arena mode, where players can compete with one another. Players will fight using their teams in various environments. A ranking system is implemented for players to clearly see who has the strongest team. Players with the highest rankings will have access to exclusive weapons and armor, among other things.
