Dragon Nest JP

You won't be able to play the korean version. If your KSSN is under 19, you won't be able to play more then 6 hours or past midnight in korean time. That basically screws over foreigners.

When I click on "game start" I get

It says anyone can join in, but it also says "EXCB" which I'm assuming is "extended closed beta." How does that make sense? lol Well, if it's really opened to everyone, it's starting in 7 minutes. I'm going to try to join in.


Edit : The downloader pops up, but it keeps giving me "the download has failed" errors... =/


Edit 2 : DOWNLOADING! I hope to be in-game soon.

Edit 3: Holy pomegranate... You can definitely tell a ton of JPs are downloading this now... My download speed went from 4MB at the beginning to 300KB now. =/

Edit 4 : Damn it. I got the game downloaded and everything. As soon as the patcher pops up, it gets to 25% patched and then STOPS.

Edit 5 : Restarting the patcher fixed it. lol

Expect Japanified English terms NOT to make sense 80% of the time and just take it for what it actually means, not for what it says...I know how you feel though.
Also what class are you making? I'll try to make one that starts in the same town as you so we can play together....as you may have seen by my vids, soloing gets hard, takes longer, and is less fun further down the line.

I'm going as a warrior.

Also, does this game not have a difference in graphics settings? I played around with it and highest is the EXACT SAME as lowest. Or do I have to restart the game for it to take effect? If there's no difference, this game is going to be EXTREMELY laggy for me. =/

Edit : I restarted it and it's a TON smoother now. It's actually playable now.

Edit 2 : IGN is ShiKage

ok, I made a warrior too since i already have an archer. name's Phantasm. Be there in a sec

Japanese DN STILL doesn't work for me, I still get the same error. Shikage, under what conditions did you press 'game start'?

@Erich I was playing it just fine a few hours ago. I live in New Zealand so theres not a big difference in time zones from Korea.

I've try to change this but still not work

this feel kinda hopeless now . . OTL
btw currently it's an extra close beta not open beta yet


@Phantasm
I don't have another hard drive nor Jap OS . . TT___TT

@btbam
yup but I can't communicate with other player since I can't read nor speak Korea

@Erich
it'll work if in the year 95~92 and regist with adult option

Um... Lol I set my entire OS to everything Japanese. Though, I highly doubt any of those changed enough to make that much of a difference, since it's not an authentic Japanese operating system. All I did was go on the site, log in, and click "Game Start" and the game started downloading.


Anyway, this game is FUN. I was on it throughout the entire time Open Beta was up today with Phantasm and we both went from 1 ~ 10 on our warriors.


Edit : Wow... I just realized how little sense that previous sentence made...

Edit 2 : By the way... The dance emotes are f'ucking HILARIOUS.

Edit : Wow... I just realized how little sense that previous sentence made...

WHO CARES! THE GAME IS MAD FUN! The best part is that there was no grinding so we never had to do a stage more than 3~4 times and even then the stages are short as hell!!!
I'm getting my warrior to 15 tomrrow and then farming abyss difficulty >

We need to get more people on before the next open session!

I think Erich is going to join us tomorrow night (EST, speaking lol). Though, he's going to be alone if we're going to be getting our warriors to 15.

If anyone else is having problems getting the game to start up, tell me here. I'll tell you how to switch your computer to pretty much everything Japanese if you need to do so.


Whenever the official version is released, we need to make a guild.

First idea for a guild name : 外人Smash

@ShiKage
I'm still got problem with start button, can you tell me how to make it work? . . . OTL

I get an error with the button too.. but i'm fairly sure, right now, you can only download it when you're in the play hours for it.. which we aren't in yet.

I will too, just so I don't get too far behind. The good thing, is we only have a few more days left of this beta, until we have to wait for the real thing. Which means we'll all be in the same boat.

Onto the fact of the forum.. it isn't going so hot.

I can't find the news post anymore, but I recall reading they had an open beta coming after this as well, before the official release? When is official out?

No idea, maybe there will be a real OBT, hopefully with 24/7 servers.. but uh, hopefully we won't end up like spadow, who got to the max leveled content before the real game came out..

I can't use the download(s), I get:

you need to log in to Han Game first to download

What proxy are you guys using? I haven't been keeping up with this lately but maybe when APs are over...

We use a VPN to get to the website. I'll PUBLICLY release it here now:
http://www.packetix.net/en/secure/install/
when you get into it, first go to virtual adapter -> create new virtual adapter. Then follow the instructions under settings on the download page to setup the actual connection. The game doesn't need this; as soon as you start the download, you can turn off the vpn. Same with the game; no ip block.
