Well... I was skeptical at first, but then I realised that it wouldn't be fair to judge unless I went to look around and see what they've been working on first... So I did. I logged on to look around, and I must say; I'm not skeptical anymore. In fact I'm quite positive, that once again, this is not Bravo Online. What gave it away you ask? Well for one thing, even after 5 or 10 minutes of running around the overworld I still couldn't figure out that I was actually in Bravo! It wasn't until a staff member logged on and told me that I was standing in Coast Town that I realised that I was. I thought that I was in the "Ages of Ignis" part of the overworld (I'll get to that later).
My point here is that Bravo doesn't look much like Bravo. This isn't a good start. From what I've seen of Centra there are some very important elements in place, the entrance looked a bit wonky, but I'd have to see the original to refresh my memory. Chicken did go a bit overboard on the streams around the houses though.
As was previously mentioned, even aside from the fact that the layout looks nothing like the original, Coast Town isn't that pleasing to the eye. A lot of copy->paste detail, and physics defying houses; which is fine on some servers, but that's just not Bravo's way and it's things like this that will make this 'new bravo' have the old Bravo feel.
Right; so back to the 'Ages of Ingis' thing. What does this really mean? Will there be a second part to the playerworld that has the overworld from 'Ages of Ingis'? Or is this just Bravo's Age of Ingis (Which I'm told means fire?) Because that just doesn't make sense. I'm pretty sure that there was fire on Bravo Online in the 3rd (which never made it far), 2nd, and probably 1st age. Now honestly this sounds like another one of these:
Player 1: I want to start my playerworld up again, but I need hosting.
Player 2: You can host on my server space. But you have to merge the name with mine so that I can call it my own too. Oh, and make me manager.
Player 1: k.
One more thing. You guys are rushing into things again. You got the idea to try and revive Bravo again, what... Two, Two and a half weeks ago? And you're already posting threads boasting about this new revival, and how it's actually going to work this time... and how levels are sixty percent done?! No, no they're not. There are tonnes of towns on Bravo, in fact so many that I can't remeber them all: Coast, Centra, Scrawby, Bethla, Bou... I know I'm forgetting atleast two or three. Maybe you should take your time instead of trying to rush to get it out there. I'd much rather wait a year for a good Bravo remake, than have this one shutdown three days from now.
Now there was another problem that I had with the new Bravo when I checked it out the other day, but I believe that was just a misunderstanding and is fixed now. I won't go into details anyway.
That's all i have to say for now. Sorry, I wish I could give all praise, but that's what I honestly think. |
