Meiko Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) As many of you know, LEGO and Warner Brothers will be launching an MMO soon for the Legends of Chima theme. I wanted to start a discussion thread about this, since I haven't seen too much talk about it elsewhere. I have gotten beta access, and as a friend of mine (jamesster) pointed out, GameStop is currently giving away a limited number of beta access codes. (promotion has ended) After June 27, 2013, you will no longer be able to claim a beta access coupon. Get one while they last! CLOSED BETA ENDS ON JULY 9, 2013 AT 4:00AM EASTERN TIME OPEN BETA OPENS AUGUST 1, 2013! Open Beta has been delayed to open on August 5, 2013 Open Beta is out! You can access the website for the game here: http://www.chimaonline.com Screenshots So, what are your thoughts on the game?

Toa Talo Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Looks interesting I hope you can play as other races like the eagles, gorillas,etc. and maybe even the bad guys?

So yay, it seems fun enough even though I'm only level 2 at the moment I wouldn't mind getting together with a buncha other BZP peeps. People that I somewhat know are cool!

Mr. Cup of Fail Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) I try the game and it is good but sometime it is really bad with the fighting. I like you can choose what race you want to be like bird, lion, bear and gorilla but it bed that you can't choose the other side and be a Wolf and Crocodile. The Music is good and it sound like they put the old Lego Universe music. Selling your items to other people is a great idea so someone can use that item to help them when you no longer need it. The voice in the game is amazing but it oddly stop sometimes. On the game i am Officer PurpleWolf of the lion race, i am on level 12 right now.

Meiko Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) I have two major suggestions for the game:Some sort of "bank"-like building where you can store weapons that you can't use yet, weapons you don't use anymore, and bricks so that you don't need to keep them in your inventory if you don't want/need more space. Crafting should give experience. Recently I've been doing more crafting than I have done battling.Also, I have exciting news! Open beta opens at the start of July!

The Lonesome Wanderer Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I agree with both of those, but I would also like a combo attack system. That was one of the best parts of LU IMO.

Tanu Toa of Earth Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Admiral EggyWight, level 1 or 2 or something... but I won't be playing. The graphics is just too disappointing. I was hoping for a big screen and third-person, and instead I get somewhat low-quality isometric view in a tiny Unity web player, and seemingly repetitive, boring gameplay. Come on, LEGO.

Click Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Just started as Eerie Coldspark the Eagle. Not a bad name if I do say so myself. It's so glitchy though; when I first started, everyone was just lying on their faces and I couldn't do anything. Most of it fixes after a refresh. It was cool to see some stuff from Lego Universe too. Anyone notice Stromling was one of the name options? Also, interesting mechanics with the outposts. Like one of those city building games. EDIT: I do have to say, after playing for a while, I like Lego Universe so much better. It's not just the gameplay (although this is pretty close, but not nearly as fun), but the whole look of it. Compared to Lego Universe and the Engineer, Space Marauder, etc. armors, these wimpy sashes and things are so boring. They'll probably be some more armors, but it can't compare to Lego Universe. The bad guys are just as boring too. Come on, Lego, we were battling infected giant spiders with missiles! Now we just have boring crocs with spears.

Sir Kohran Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I really wanted to like this, but the gameplay is unoriginal and repetitive. You just run through forest settings killing enemies and picking up bundles of items so your level number can increase now and again. RPGs have been doing this for years, if not decades. Is it more lively when done with other players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully over the next beta period and once the game is finalized and publicly released, it'll be more fun.

The Lonesome Wanderer Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 They should add Speedorz as a PvP mechanic. Maybe dueling for items/EXP in a tournament of some kind?
