DSS Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 [align=center][IMG]http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo177/heerowolfen/Jogos%20Online/GrandChaseLogo.png[/IMG] [align=center][b]Grand Chase [/b](Korean: 그랜드체이스, lit. Grand Chase) is a free-to-play, two-dimensional side-scrolling MMORPG developed by the Korean company KOG Studios. Based on a manhwa, the story centers around the adventures of the Grand Chase team. [spoiler=Storyline] The Kingdoms of Serdin and Kanavan have always thrived side-by-side on Bermesiah in peace for as long as anyone could remember, until the Queen of Darkness, Kaze'aze, infiltrated Kanavan, killed the ruling queen's most trusted advisor, disguised herself as him, and manipulated the Queen of Kanavan to wage a full-scale war with Serdin which lasted for five years. Many lives were lost in battle and much of the continent was levelled until either queen discovered who the culprit was. By then, it was too late, for Kaze'aze had fled. The Queen of Kanavan dispatched a group of elite warriors, known as Trackers, to find Kaze'aze, but all of them disappeared mysteriously. The Queen of Serdin was determined to prevent another war of such devastating magnitude from taking place on Bermesiah again. To this effect, she created an army of warriors who are aligned to no one, and will fight for the tranquility of the entire continent. She named this army "Grand Chase".[/spoiler] [spoiler=Gameplay] While gameplay in Grand Chase is primarily keyboard-driven, the game menu's interface is, by contrast, primarily mouse-driven, although some in-game key commands may be user-defined. Due to the combos and special attacks, the game has a feel that is similar to side-scrolling fighting games such as Street Fighter 2 or Double Dragon, while the appearance and design of the backdrops, as well as the characters and monster, puts the game in an anime-esque setting. While it is an action game, the designers took care to not make a "button masher". The game is free-to-play, where players need to earn currency known as Game Points (GP) from completing dungeon quests, individual missions, or defeating other players to buy better equipments or items, but there are some items that can only be purchased with real-world currency. In Grand Chase, players start off role-playing as one of three main heroines, and will be able to unlock more playable characters by completing specific missions. However, the player may freely switch among the characters he or she has unlocked between missions, each with their own specific equipment and experience level.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Dungeon Mode and Parties] When entering a dungeon, it is advisable to form a group of players, also known as a party, to complete it. When choosing a dungeon to play, the player is given the option to create a party of his or her own or join one created by another player. The creator of the game can regulate whoever joins his or her party by locking the game with a password, or otherwise leave it unprotected, allowing any user to join. He or she is also given the option to kick any player prior to or after the completion of a dungeon. Items that are found in the dungeons are distributed among all members of the party. To encourage group play, there is a slight experience boost when working together. Because each party has a maximum limit of four players, and each player may freely choose whichever character he or she wants to use, there is a chance that two or more players will control the same playable character. However, they can be identified separately through their screen name.[/spoiler] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pFiCKzuiXA&feature=related]Party Dungeon gameplay vid[/url] [spoiler=Player versus Player] Players can also compete against each another in combat. Grand Chase offers two types of player versus player combat — Team Battles and Survival — with an additional option of choosing between Tag Match and Item Mode. Win/loss statistics are tracked for these matches.There is no time limit.[/spoiler] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok50YnvgOyI]PVP gameplay vid[/url] [spoiler=Characters] There are nice playable characters to use and players may switch characters between dungeons. Each character is leveled and equipped separately. Most equipment is character-specific, and the choice of character is similar to class choice in most MMORPGs.Players are given the first three characters — as listed below in order from top to bottom — as their starting characters, and will have to unlock other characters through quests. These quests can either be purchased through GP or real-world currency.[/spoiler] Elesis Elesis is a Kanavan Knight and daughter of a Kanavan Tracker who never returned after he was dispatched to find Kaze'aze. Her reason for joining Grand Chase is to find her missing father whom she loved. Elesis has the most defense out of all characters, and specializes in close- and medium-ranged combat. She is also notable for her ability to reflect arrows, and her ability to "Berserk", which causes all enemies within her range to levitate and drop onto the ground, receiving considerable damage.
