A late update, but currently Yakisoba is playing Battlefield 3!

Our platoon is up, click on the link and request to join. We are still looking for more active players to join us on our nightly affairs on our own dedicated 32 player server, hosted by Hypernia. Our server is managed by myself, Tsubaki (tsubaakiii) and Shader (ShaderX) running the best map rotation of 1 conquest 2 rush and removing the useless laggy Tehran Highway. The server also has Friendly-fire on and Kill-Cam removed. Requirements is that you join mumble while playing with us, as teamwork is so crucial to BF3.

Members will get priority into the server, request on mumble to either myself or Shader to free up a slot for you. As for now the current server version does not support slot reservation, but we believe it will be release in a couple of updates soon. When that happens, members will be added into the VIP list and will be able to join into our server without queuing for a slot.

We play daily, so join us. Also do join us on our facebook group for more active discussions and updates.

And we’ve moved on to another MMO, this time an action type MMO: Dragon Nest (SEA).

It’s f2p, and it’s a lot of fun because it’s action based, all about moving and positioning and aiming.

We are currently on Springwood, and Yakisoba has already been made. Pm Tsuubaki, Feito or Shader to join in.

Details are on our Facebook group.

Woah. The blog’s a bit dusty, but our guild’s still very active. Here’s a quick update on what we are up to:

We are currently playing Eden Eternal, a very beautiful anime-styled MMORPG.

The guild is currently residing on Emerald server, under the same name: Yakisoba. We are currently Lvl 2, hoping to hit Lvl 3 so then we can get a guild town and emblem. Still open to recruit new members, preferably from the GMT+8 timezone.

Guild leader, will not be Tsubaki (Tsuu) but instead Testarossa. Pm Testarossa to join.

Also for all existing members from our past games, if you have not join our Facebook group yet, do send your request and also identify yourself. We are a lot more active there and we post our updates and game related news frequently there compared to our blog.

You won’t believe this, but we picked up a new casual game to help kill time and it’s proving to be rather addictive and fun.

Spiral Knights is a free to play, java-based browser game. Now before you say “meh”, have a look at it. It’s a dungeon crawler that doesn’t have level or classes, instead you punch your way deep into the planet’s core to gather loot or mats and what’s addictive is the crafting aspect of this game where you can make a lot of gear. The graphics are cute and it works well for the game.

The limit to this game is that you only have 100 energy to spend each day. 1 energy takes about 15mins to regain. You roughly get about and hour or two worth of gameplay time, which is pretty good if you want to play a casual game. Everytime you head down to the dungeons you will need to spend “energy”. And there’s where the payment model comes in: You can pay for more “time”. But the game is designed in such a way that you can still buy energy using crowns, the in-game currency.

This allows you to keep farming for crowns to buy more energy and pretty much be self-reliant.

Yakisoba has already established a guild in this game. PM or drop a mail to Tsuu to be added in! You don’t have to be online for us to send you an invite.

As we have formally merged with Singapore Gaming on RIFT, all interested players who wish to join us or former members from our other games, kindly proceed to http://sgclan.enjin.com and post your application there. Do flag up if you are a former yakisoba member.

We are currently still recruiting, and we do need more Mages and Clerics especially.

The new system is that we will use SG’s guild infrastructure which Sgboss has very dedicately build up his community over the years, while retaining the Yakisoba guild name. They have a website for interested members: http://sgclan.enjin.com/

There’s also a 25m Mumble voice chat for all to use. You will need to download the Mumble client, and frankly I think it’s quite good compared to Vent or TS.

So for all interested players who want to join this really big local community, do register at http://sgclan.enjin.com/ and make an application.

Cheers,

Tsuu

PM Tsuu, kongbakpao, Testarossa or Xobile to be added into the guild.

Busy grinding now, so won’t post much.

All members who are still queuing, take note of the shift and move to Dayblind instead.

Thank you and sorry for the trouble!

Here’s a major QQ-post about rift.

It’s 5 hours into the game, at the moment the highest level member in the guild is Lvl 2. Everyone else who woke up early to play the game is stuck on the incrediblely long queue. Massive QQ-ing on the forums, facebook and twitter. A lot of angry people. We’re also tired of people trying to defend Trion by saying it’s normal, because it isn’t. We have been playing a lot of head starts and this 2-4 hours queue just takes the cake. Period.

If Trion knew that there are 1 million subscriptions, they should have expected the numbers.

Sure, it’s nice gesture for them to open more servers now, but that’s just knee jerk reaction. And not to mention that in months to come, those newer servers will slowly die off one by one and then the whole “need to merge” shit happens and when you know it, the game is dead. Just like the other MMOs who have tried and failed. Most guilds/groups of friends have already decided on a server and to move everyone to a new server requires major communication, and more queuing. Good luck in retaining the guilds when they quit in mass numbers.

I guess the fact that most of us are just treating RIFT as a filler game to the other titles. It’s not gonna last unless by some magic patch the game is so soul sucking at the end.

TLDR: I am still patching.

…I am still patching. Fucking fail. It dropped to 9kb/s when I was sleeping.

And people are complaining the servers are mad packed. Queues for it are 2 hours along. GG.

Man, RIFT fails to anticipate this.
