At the heart of every great adventure lies a hero's desire to

creators behind Knight
Online (KOL) that. The team's latest substence
begins the Forever Saga
storyline for KOL at chapter one, titled Vigilance. A plague
ofshortdragons invades the land, most likely because of some angry
gods. Though not as menacing as mature dragons, this infestation proves
quite deadly. It's up to the gamers to sort things out, which means a
lot of dragon slaying for gamers! Ten Ton Hammer has acquired some
images of the dragons. Let us know when they're all dead.

Knight Online : News from the Wider MMORPG World: September 30th, 2008Sep 30, 2008 06:00:00 PM News Item: 5561
Filed under: At a glance, Fantasy, Dofus, Knight Online, MMORPG industry, Pirates of the Caribbean Online, News items, Free-to-play, Chronicles of Spellborn, Dream of Mirror Online
The MMORPG genre is more than World of Warcraft, Age of Conan, and Warhammer Online. Here's what's going on in the rest of the world.
Ankama Games commencees new Dofus Heroic Server; includes permadeath
As of September 23rd, there's a new worlddedicated to Ankama Games' Dofus. Called the Heroic Server, its most notable feature is permanent death for all characters. Once dead, the gamer's opponent is allowed to take the character's items, and the deceased becomes interred in the Cemetery of Heroes, a worldwide ranking that can be consulted via a dedicated website. To offset the permadeath penalty, all skill and professions leveling will be much easier, allowing gamers to rise in rank much more quickly. To the brave and the bold: the Heroic Server calls!
Atlantica Online begins open beta; offers prizes
For their open beta commence, Atlantica Online's NDOORS is offering gamers of its Free Leagues -- the Player vs Player system -- a variety of prizes, including a Nintendo Wii, an iPod Nano, or $10,000 in cash. Interestingly, these prizes become obtainable only once the gamer population hits certain landmarks: 5,000; 10,000; 20,000; and 30,000.

Knight Online : MMORPG subscriptions report -- who is beating whom?Dec 12, 2007 09:30:00 AM News Item: 4293
Filed under: World of Warcraft, Dofus, EVE Online, EverQuest II, Guild Wars, Knight Online, Lord of the Rings Online, MMORPG industry, Second Life, Vanguard
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/gaming_news/MMORPG_Subscriptions_Report_Who_Is_Beating_Who'; MMORPGCrunch has started a monthly feature based onstatisticsfrom new site VOIG that shows subscription facts for different different MMORPGs. What that boils down to is that they'll be reporting each month on the most subscribed-to games, position changes in the rankings, and basically which company gets bragging rights for that month.
The first report examines thestatisticsfor October this year. The top 5 MMORPGs by subscription in October were World of Warcraft with 26.03% (surprise!), Second Life with 18.86%, Guild Wars at 12.6%, Knight Online with 11.9%, and Dofus on 9.73%. WoW, SL and Guild Wars I could most likely have given you, but I had not realized that Knight Online and Dofus were so popular.
Other fascinating tidbits: Lord of the Rings Online hit 300,000 subscriptions, EVE Online overtook EverQuest II and Vanguard grew a little, but still isn't doing too well. Assuming that the VOIGstatisticsis reasonably accurate (something that MMORPGCrunch themselves say they wanted to be sure of, and watched the site for a few months first before running the article) this should be an fascinating feature to watch in coming months.
