Ragnarok Valkyrie Presscon

October 12, 2007 · Filed Under Events, Level Up, Ragnarok

Woot! It’s a long weekend! Malacanang just announced a holiday today, Oct 12, 2007 in observance of the Muslim Ramadan.

Yesterday, we arranged a press conference for our media friends to tell them all about Valkyrie - Ragnarok’s newest Free to Play service. Valkyrie was launched last Wednesday, Oct 10.

The event was held at Friday’s, Bonifacio High Street, The Fort. Lunch.

Thanks to the efforts of my true “Valkyrie Angels”, Joie Borja and the lovely Gamer Babe Pam for organizing the event. Also, RO 1 ABM Rob Yatco and GM Lilith were there to lend their help and support. I’d also like to thank a Ragnarok “living legend” and my good friend, Master Diwa. He was there to show support and share a few words to the press. Thanks, idol!

GM Lilith even commissioned this great Valkyrie costume which was created in less than a week. Check it out!

More photos after when you click below…

That’s me doing my presentation.

Master Diwa with Level Up Girl/Model Joline as our Valkyrie

And Master Diwa sharing the joys of RO to the media.

While Level Up COO Pet Syling explains our plans for the future.

GM T with the Valkyrie

ABM Rob with Joline

For any bloggers out there who want to blog about Valkyrie, just drop me a note and I’ll be more than happy to send you stuff and pics.

Thanks,

GM T

Nice costumes! Press release and cosplay at the same! Go Valkyrie!
seaneas on October 13th, 2007 11:18 am

DJ_BB, kaw nanaman DJ sa LU Live. :heh:
Congrats, again. Sana may 2z vending ka dun.

@topic
Sir Mon, sana hindi lang puro publicity this time at may makita kaming improvement sa Valkyrie Server. Ung mga Police keep it up. The more the better I still see some. Fixed the bugs ASAP kung meron man. Congrats again.

Pero just wondering what will happen to Thor Server. Mukhang kunti nalang tao dun. Do I smell merge servers again? :heh:
monmon on October 13th, 2007 1:39 pm

matanong ko lng po.. bat po pag may bug/sira sa server parang naglalag din yung ragnaboards. pag maayos ragna, maayos din ragnaboards. internet ko ba may prob?
dodge113 on October 13th, 2007 1:46 pm

Good job on Valkyrie. I do, however, want to say that Thor is getting depressing. I hope, GMT, that you and the RO team can think of something for Thor that’ll entice others to play Thor as well. Also the same hotkey bug that is plaguing Valkyrie is affecting Thor.

Hoping for the quick fix of the servers affected.
Ogs Peace on October 13th, 2007 3:26 pm

hello, apat na years na po ako naglalaro ng RO [pero 2nd account ko na po ung ginawa ko last year - since na hack po ako] - matanong lang po, is there a possibility in the near future na, maimplement ang f2p mode sa commercial servers? or is it exclusive sa valkyrie?

and, 2nd question: maimplement po ba ang anti-bot measure sa commercial servers? [sana ma implement po.. kc, meron pa po kcng mga natitirang non-botters - tulad ko - sa commercial servers - from freya]

i like the new server - valkyrie - i really do, pero nasasayangan po ako sa hirap na dinaanan ko [and pag pondo palang ng money ko na kahit 20m lang] - sa freya - kung maglipat po ako sa valk… pero, the fact na free2play and no bots po.. well - i guess it’s worth the sacrifice of leaving freya.

sana po pagpatuloy nyo 2ng fair play na to.
thanks.

Waaa

Pet Syling was my prof at DLSU

Sir Pet, MEM 95 here !! Kmusta kina Phyllis, Mets

and Edge /no1
Rai on October 14th, 2007 9:26 am

E di wag kang maglaro sa Valkyrie di ba?

Sa regular servers ka na lang…

An easy solution to your “major” problem
Rai on October 14th, 2007 9:28 am

Then don’t play sa Valkyrie right?

There are other servers which can cater to your

own lifestyle /no1
testing on October 14th, 2007 9:47 am

akala ko nga mkakatipid dun sa valkyrie server..kaso madoble ang gastos baka hnd lng doble ung gastos ko..kaya balik freya n ulit ako..hehehe.. un lng
kaz on October 14th, 2007 9:57 am

i thought the conference was about to those botters
anonymous on October 14th, 2007 4:17 pm

there are so many robots still in valk.. even though its a new server.. we regular players cant compete with that.. please fix.. and another for MPs (Midgard Police) who has a bad idea about reoprting me that im a robot.. well then, he forgot that we were in the MVP map, so i killed him..! please fix those also and get responsible MPs not just regular player that who wants to report whoever they like…

Rai on October 14th, 2007 9:30 pm

Question lang po.

Different ba ang steels sa hypermart from those

na drop lang? I bought 100 steels just to find out na

ndi sha pwede gawing Binoculars for archers.

Did i just waste those steels and ROK pts?
GM T on October 14th, 2007 10:19 pm

Thank you for your comments and feedback. I will bring this up with the RO team and Gravity. I will update you soon.
Openkore user on October 15th, 2007 4:43 am

@rai may tama ka! di nga siguro kami bagay sa php server a.k.a. valkyrie server. pero FYI totoong nakaka hiya ang pagiging botter (importante pa bang malaman kung nag bot ka o nag manual ka?)pero mas nakaka hiya ang character na lumakas sa php diba, proud ka ba dun?
ganyan talaga sa umpisa masipag mag pa level kasi bagito eh, pero mga RO veterans like me na nag pa level ng 3 characters “manually” up to level 99 (3rd job) in 3+ years eh mag iisip isip ka narin diba? sipagin ka pa ba? syempre gusto ko mag laro sa valkyrie kasi maraming tao kesa sa commercial servers, saka malalaman mo kung malakas talaga char. mo at ok yung build mo diba? nwey, baka naman nag sasalita ka lang kasi me nakaka basang mga GM dito? wag maging plastic ^_^
Openkore user on October 15th, 2007 5:04 am

sa mga GM congrats nga pala sa bagong server, nwey salamat nga pala sa pag trap nyo sa mga bot ko… hayaan nyo gagalingan ko na sa susunod ang pag config sa mga bot ko para di nyo na mahuli. ROK on! /gg
Rai on October 15th, 2007 5:41 am

Positive thinker ka bro

Siguro nga coz i’m still new sa game kaya ganun sagot

ko.

Sabi nga eh, “Pag gusto, maraming paraan; Pag ayaw,

maraming dahilan”

Tuloy mo lang yan, you’ll reach new hieghts ^^

make it sure GM T… make it sure…

in my opinion, valkyrie was made for people fitting for those who has the expense in buying those rok points for their own good.. the thing about bugs, is that it will be fixed this coming wednesday… (i hope so..)
rya on October 15th, 2007 8:36 am

ermm madami po abusive MPs chucking the wrong people in ail.. i think there should be sumthing done about it.. tska ung steel.. bug cya d marecognize ng npc na magkakasama steel so tingin nya iisa lng.. di 2loy ako mkpg job change.. wed.. grbe tgal bgo ako mkpg job change almost 5 days kailangan hintayin

Openkore user on October 15th, 2007 1:58 pm

Openkore user on October 15th, 2007 2:35 pm

@ rya 5 char mo na tranced di dumaan ng bot? hmmm… bale 10x ka nagpa 99! ilang taon mo kinuha? tapos baka puro melee pa yan… hmmm… parang imposible yata? wala ka bang ibang buhay kundi RO? i mean wala ka bang trabaho or kung estudyante ka palang RO lang ba laman ng utak mo? dibale na mahaba ang kwento basta totoo \m/ (O_-) \m/
rya on October 15th, 2007 5:59 pm

fatman on October 15th, 2007 9:02 pm

@ Gyun: The Hunter test has been moved to Hugel. Go to the building at the North East corner of the town. The other NPCs are still in Payon.

Hey guys!! pa2lng nmn oh! Ang problem ko kac ung Char. ko sa loki n lvl 80+ ay bumalik novice… Panu ko po un marerecover…? Please help me!!Huhuhu!!
seaneas on October 27th, 2007 2:55 pm

@Jenices
Ate hindi po bumalik sa novice ung account mo na split po ung account mo cguro may ginawa kang char sa Chaos at nag exceed ung chararacters sa account mo sa kaya nag split. Try use a username “[insert username]PRO1″ tapos ung same password gamitin mo. Andun ung mga characters mo sa Loki.

For more information. Try asking in Ragnaboards, mas marami tutulong sayo dun. http://ragnaboards.levelupgames.ph/

Sorry po GMT for Out of Topic.

Dricaflek on March 27th, 2008 3:46 pm

Sir Tristan I really need your help
my account’s secret question in levelupgames
is wrong and i cant chang my pass
_NdrEw_ on April 2nd, 2008 1:59 pm

Greetings!

Sir Tristan,

The players on Valkyrie are experiencing difficulties in logging in and playing online because bot-players are invading the free2play server. I’m a newbie on the server and I used to play on Payon Cave and there are bot-players present in each level. For almost every location. The presence of bot-players are everywhere.

Bot-Players > Players

If it this would still continue, the free2play server will be only full of bot-players. T_T Help. Please.
pokamon on April 4th, 2008 7:13 am

dear GM tristan of pValkyrie.. I would like to say that make vvalkyrie a bot free online game.. ill give you an idea… like in DarkRO if they use a third party like bot programs a computer will imediately detect it and will block their IP addresses… san gan2 ang mangyari… para fair sa lahat ng pple playing pVRO….
aLipUnGa on April 7th, 2008 12:19 am

pano k naging masaya sa valkyrie kung boter k?
masaya lang sa bot kc my farmer k…
pero mas masaya kung my pera k wahaha…
reqeust nmn sa GM dyan bka pwede linisin nyo nmn ang bot ang daming farmer wag kyo mag bulag bulagan o bka nmn isa sa mga booter friend nyo!!!
aLipUnGa on April 7th, 2008 12:22 am

mas maganda na talaga sa darkRO kung gusto talaga alisin ng GM ang booter dapat ginawa na nila napakadali nmn talaga alisin pero bka nmn my mga friend sila na booter
sylv3rblade on April 7th, 2008 9:36 am

@Alipunga
actually LUG level up did good on the first few months of existence of the new server. All that botters did was bring the server down rather than be able to play. I am wondering though what has changed.
_NdrEw_ on April 7th, 2008 10:01 am

@pokamon

Ok ung idea mo bro pero wag naman yung pagblock ng IP address kasi hindi lahat naka dsl with a private IP. Most of the players are using a SmartBRO ISP in which public ung IP address. Same IP pero marami ung users. Kung nablock ung mismong IP address na yun. Maraming maaapektuhan. Example. Ako. haha.

blix on August 22nd, 2008 8:58 am

hi guys… pde mag share ng idea? hehe e2 kung pde sana ung mga bot hunter e may reward kahit 1k per kill bot.. dpt po ban ang mga bot e pero bakit ang dami pa atang mga bot
blix on August 22nd, 2008 9:12 am

hi again… ahm tanong q lng po kung bakit ang onti ata ng drop rate sa valkyrie… wala po bang drop rate ang mga cards?
blix on August 22nd, 2008 9:14 am

last comment q na to… diba kaung lahat e galit sa mga bot? diba UNFAIR pag may bot? GM^^ ok lng po ba kung may reward ang mga bot hunters.. ung mga kumikill ng mga bot sa mga pk area kahit 1k/per kill ahehehe.. un lng po. GO VALKYRIE ROK ON
lol on August 31st, 2008 5:29 am

1k per kill ka dyan.. edi gagawa ka ng bot para i-kill mo ng i-kill..tig 1-1k isa. mag isip ka tol
