Come discover it now at http://www.ryzom.com and tell us what you think about it on the forums !
PS: Don’t forget to join the events with us during Halloween!
With the latest patch, we launched the Ryzom app store where PHP developers can create powerful applications that are available in the game (SHIFT+W) and also out of the game with the browser at this url: http://atys.ryzom.com/start/index.php
Currently, we have made a mail application and a small notepad.
We already have lot of ideas but we would like to know your ideas too. So please add your ideas (in English) and vote for those you like:
In order to fix most annoying new issues with patch 1.6.0, we are working on patch 1.6.1 that should be live today.
Bluegrazz, a new player on Ryzom, wrote on the official forum a very nice testimonial. :)
WOW- Spent about 4 hours in game last night and that was enough to convert me. I had issues with my video card (needed to change to Open GL) and at first it was running really poorly- Within seconds of asking for assistance I had several members of the community give me a very helpful explanation as to how to change to Open GL.
So, after playing around with the crafting for a few minutes (harvesting actually) I was amazed by the depth- This is the only MMO I have played in this Millennium where I actually had to read things- Twice…. I am in MMO Heaven right now- Skill based advancement? Sandbox? Deep Gameplay? Helpful Community? Death penalty???? Why haven’t I heard of this before? Seriously- I have been wasting my time playing EZ Mode, linear MMO’s with a bunch of 1337 Kiddies and I could have been here.
Thanks for offering a hardcore MMO that hasnt been dumbed down for the masses- In the few hours I played I have found more “meat” than I have in countless hours of “raiding”, “faction grinding” and “racing to endgame”- And havnt scratched the surface.
So why (seriously) is this game 5 years old and I have never heard of it? There are a ton of people out there who have been waiting for this game and yet they dont even know its here. I will be spreading this game around to people I know will appreciate what you have done here- I sure do.
I WILL be subbing to this game (and after only a few hours of play- It amazes me that I know this already) immediately when my trial ends- And will be focusing on my crafting/harvesting in the meantime (havnt even had to try combat yet =P )
- Thank you for the warm welcome from the community and thank you for a sandbox to play in to the devs.
You will be seeing Eppenguar alot from now on.bluegrazz

I agree with him, Ryzom community is very mature, warm and helpful. We are grateful and it motivates us to work hard to create a better game.
We are currently fixing the last few bugs we find in the patch, test it, translate missing sentences and, next week, we’ll be able to release it!
We are also already working actively on the next patch.
Last night I saw a Zoraï… who had a strange tatoo… but she told me they are very expensive… Only the richest will be able to have it!
The Ryzom Coding Contest is over!
We are giving a last chance for those who don’t fill correctly their submissions and next week we’ll do the official announce.
It was really a pleasure to see so many players sharing this Ryzom birthday and we had lot of fun!
We would like to share with you screenshots and videos we found about the event on Internet.
Thank you screenshot and movie makers!
