Tara Na! Balik Ragna Na!

Ragnarok Philippines has always been close to my heart… I’m sure it’s also close to yours.

Maybe 9 out of 10 Pinoy MMORPG players started with Ragnarok, the game that ushered in the birth of the online gaming revolution in the country. And now, thanks to the efforts of my new RO Brand Manager, Ryan Sacares, his RO team and of course, to all peeps and departments in Level Up who helped in the project, we recently launched the YGGDRASIL LIF project - or the BALIK RAGNA campaign.

The premise is simple: Invite your old Ragnarok playmates/friends. If they return and top-up, you get corresponding points. Save those points and you can exchange them for FREE INGAME ITEMS which will help you in making your character stronger.

I’ve reprinted the entire mechanics after the break for your convenience…

Yggdrasil Lif Project Mechanics

Mechanics:

Recruiter:

1.       The promo is open to all existing active Ragnarok Online players.

2.       The active player must log-in his account and register at the “RESURRECTION” page to qualify as “recruiter” and will get a special “Recruiter CODE”.

3.       An active player can invite his friends who are inactive Ragnarok Online players* to play again by sending email to his inactive friends with his recruiter code.
* Players who have not played Ragnarok from Jan 1, 2004 to Nov 16, 2008 are classified as inactive players.

4.       The returning (inactive) player must log in his/her email address to confirm the invite. Recruit must click the link given to him/her and input the “Recruiter Code” of the friend who recruited him to the given site.

5.       Maximum of ten (10) confirmed invitations per active player only.

6.       The recruiter will gain points when the recruit tops up his account. For every P100 top up, the recruiter will get one (1) point.

7.       Accumulated points of the recruiter can be converted to the following in-game item of choice via website confirmation. 

8.       The recruiter can redeem the in-game prizes via automatic in-game insertion to his account every time he confirms his conversion of points.

9.       The recruiter must log-in his account and claim the free in-game items through Cool Event NPC in

Alberta. (Cool Event NPC is a special in-game character where the player can claim the free in-game items)

Recruit:

10.   The recruit will get a “welcome Kit” once he tops up a minimum of P100 load to his account.

*Welcome Kit are in-game items as listed below:

Player Top-up

Prizes

11.   The free in-game items will be automatically inserted to the account of the recruit one (1) day after the confirmation of his top-up. Cut-off time of confirmation is 3pm daily. 

Promo Period:

12.   Promo period is from March 4 to April 30, 2009. (phase 1)

13.   Employees of Level Up including their relatives up to second degree of consanguinity or affinity are disqualified from joining the promotion.

    New feature, Maybe ragnarok is loosing some of its players because some of the other players are migrating to other games. Maybe I’ll return once the system has been balanced(no lags, no bugs).Thanks for the great info GM Tristan.

  • Blades

    bitin parin ata mga rewards for recruiting gm T, sana mewon rin mga items and gears, hehe.. RO is so last half-a-decade already, hehe, pero nkkaamaze parin may mga ro fanatics parin naglalaro hanggang ngayon.. numero uno reason is mostlikely dahil masaya parin WOE siege ng RO.. now may be if LUG would kinda improve d lag latency on the game durings sieges.. cguro marami makkbalita sa news na iyan at babalik sa ro.. sana gawing priority tlaga ng lug ung woe siege, the attendance/subscibers will follow im sure of it..

  • bRO player

    I agree with francis. I think balancing after transclasses was poorly done and lag/bugs just spoil what could be an excelent experience. Renewal project made me so happy when I first heard about it in 2007. GM T., by the way, I think our LU people are trying to do something about the tickets system – it’s the same as yours in .ph.

    I find it very nice that .ph LU is trying to reach old players. But I also do think that most old players somehow keep in touch with the game – as seen by me and francis above. Heck, I even check .ph news and use google translate for .ru, .jp and .kr. ^^

    Bottom line, I think if LU did better with CS and did not let cheaters go unpunished it would do much more good to our beloved RO. And I also think you and other publishers should push Gravity to make better GM tools and a better user interface. Think of wow’s “report spam” and link equipment as respective examples. And pleeeeease, something I always wanted… a way to open a “buy” shop, that I wound buy N quantity of X item for Z price and after that it would close automatically.

    I’m one of those inactive players that hopes and wishes that someday, we’ll play Ragnarok just like old times, when there was no bot, minimal technical problems. Right now, even with the reward system, I don’t think that time will come.

    Yes, it is very close to my heart but don’t get me wrong, Ragnarok is a beautiful game. But inactive players like me doesn’t see any reason why we should come back.

  • Xiphias

    I don’t think a lot of people will return because
    1. A LOT of inactive players i know HATE the “Top_up for items” system that ragnarok has adapted
    “Pangit naman ng ragna naging parang mobius na kung pulubi ka weak ka na mas ok pa yung top up lang at least lahat equal standing”

    2. approximately 70-95% of characters logged in are bots

    3. You almost can’t party with anyone anymore

    4. you won’t be able to talk to your online friends 90% of the time because 90% of the time they are just robots

    5. unbalanced characters
    “Pangit ng ragna na eh dati ang mga job parang papel gunting bato ngayon papel gunting bato tanke na.. isang job kayang patumbahin majority ng mga jobs easily.. ano kaya yun?”

    6. imba cards
    “cards that make you a bit more powerful than every other player is one thing.. but cards that make you almost indestructible to lots of players is another”

    7. Imba skills
    “ANY skill that can render an opponent completely unable to fight back 90% of the time is IMBA”
    “ANY skill that can take down a level 99 character from any class is IMBA”

    8. PVP is NOT fun anymore
    “Ang boring mag pvp isang skill taob karamihan ni hindi man lng tumatagal ng isang segundo yung laban.. magka level pa kayo! where’s the fun?!”
    “Buti pa nung wala pang monk sa pvp room ang sarap mag pvp kasi talagang pagalingan kayo ngayon pabilisan n lng pumindot at magreak”

    9. DC LAG BUG ERROR
    “Tagal tagal na nang laro parang beta parin sa dami ng error, dc, lags at bugs

    10. laos na ragna
    “luma na ng ragna may rohan na nga tapos mag raragna ka pa”

    *All answers enclosed in ” ” are the reactions i got when i tried recruiting inactive players

  • Dish

    looks like a scroll of resurrection clone. lol

  • Blades

    @ Xiphias get a life, seriously!

  • http://gmtristan.com GM T

    As you may know, the program does not force you to join or participate. You are all entitled to your own opinion(s).

    Just sharing the news.

    If you want to go back, the choice is yours, not mine.

  • vendetta1123

    Dami nyong angal kung pano maglaro ng RO

    Ndi lang kau makasabay kasi ang nonoobs nyo…

  • projectD.

    Ragnarok for me is still the best MMORPG there is but the way I see it the problem comes not in the game but on the management. LU really needs to take care of their costumers because without us (their costumers)pRO really wouldn’t exist.

    I’ve been playing PRO since chaos days, top-up pa noon, ganda talaga ng RO noon, para bang sa tuwing naririnig mo ang log-in bgm ay para kang nahhypnotize na mag laro, para bang nsa ibang mundo ka pag naglalaro ka ng RO, aproachable ang lahat ng players dahil hindi pa uso ang bot, ang mga rare items eg. Cards, Slotted Equips, etc. ay hinahunt pa, sabi nga nila’y “pag may tyaga may nilaga”. Tapos lumabas ang Valkyrie server. maraming taong naengganyong bumalik at kasama na ako roon dahil FTP nga siya. Pero habang nagtatagal ay napapansin kong masmalaki pa ang nagagastos ko sa Rok Points kesa sa pag top up ng game time noon at ang mga items ay kayang kayang bilhin sa mga Hypermart ng walang kahirap hirap basta may pera ka pero papaano naman ang mga student players na hindi kayang bumili lagi ng LU cards, tapos nauso ang mga sinasabing characters na may edited stats, sub-GM characters na may mga imbalanced equips, nuong una eh ayaw kong maniwala sa mga un, until na naencounter ko sila sa PK and PVP, hindi ako noob at pinagmamalaki ko kahit papaano eh nakakasabay pa nmn ako sa ibang magagaling pagdating sa Player vs. Player… Nasaan na ang equality?. Tanggapin na natin ganyan talaga kelangan din ng income ng LUG para tuloy tuloy ang operation lalo’t marami nang naglabasang mga iba’t ibang MMORPGs. Matira matibay lang yan TRABAHO LANG. How I miss the old days… Para sakin ang Ragnarok ay isa na lamang magandang ala ala ng buhay ko…. Sa mga balak maglaro ng PRO don’t hold back, itry nio malay nio magustuhan niyo at sa mga nagdadalawang isip bumalik sabi nga ni GM TRISTAN
    “If you want to go back, the choice is yours, not mine.”
    More Power Sa LUG and THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
    Sori po sa npaka habang comment.
    wag nio po ako kill weak lang ako.
    padaan po please.
    ty mga kuya
