The MCC system is one of the key features that set Granado Espada apart from the rest of the MMORPGs. It enable players to control 3 characters simultaneously. This is an ability found in most classic RPG games but never before on an MMORPG.

Using the F1, F2, F3 buttons, players can also easily switch control between characters, while the other characters perform preset functions. You can also use different rows of keys on your keyboard to control the three characters simultaneously. Hotkeys can be used to activate the various talents on different characters.

Alternatively, there is an auto-hunt function that complements the MCC system. This is like a legal "bot" for the game, but will require more management and strategizing than simply just running around a preset area, killing mobs

when this game will close beta????
Nov 7, 2006 5:32 am
its right now in open beta not sure when it will be final for the release

Hanbitsoft announced on the 21st that ‘Granado Espada (www.granadoespada.com)’ published by the company and developed by IMC Games is gaining popularity with need to increase servers from explosive increase of users. The game is currently ranked the first among search lists.

Hanbitsoft remarked that through existing server tunings and channel expansion, they are fully ready for the explosive increase of users. The company also shared their plan to add ‘Scarlet’ World on the 21st in which users older than 18 years of age can access. Lastly they added that their game is gaining popularity as it has been ranked the first in the game search list earning favorable feedbacks from the users.

CEO of IMC Games Kim, Hak Gyu expressed his opinions about the first week of the open beta period, “The major problems in the earlier stage seems to have been solved as we have been focusing on the stabilization of service. The adaptation and satisfaction of users on the new trial of the game looks favorable, better than we expected.”

Especially, the share in Internet cafés has kept rising to enter the top 10 list among games. The response of users through offline events is hotter than expected as about 20,000 users visited ‘GE Experience Zone’ in the weekend.

The managing director of Hanbitsoft Lee, Yoon Mi stated, “‘Granado Espada’ can not be equaled by other games in terms of game excellence, contents and credibility of the services. We will only allow WOW to be considered our rivalry. By emphasizing our strengths and listening to the opinions of the gamers, we will surpass WOW

Are you sure they are in the beta state? The site didn't change at all from July to now, so I doubt they are planning to release it soon. Although the game looks nice, can't deny. <3

English Beta Coming!

, starting near somewhere at the end of this year .. hopefully

As always - no one can say for sure if you'll be accepted or not

Good Luk To Ya All!

---------------------------------------------- Updated [04.10.06] ----------------------------------------------

Some time has past and since middle of August the Closed Beta registrations are really received by the IAH

We all have the same questions and for some of them we now have the answer!

MOST IMPORTANT ANSWER! - CLOSED BETA STARTS AROUND NOVEMBER

From an external interview by AnimeDesho with Jonathon Sze, the product manager of IAH, the company responsible for bringing GE to Singapore:

1. OVERVIEW

Quote:

This little information will intrigue former GE gamers who have played in the Korean or Japanese servers.

- Alpha is in version 1.8. Looks like they scrapped version 1.0 and went straight to 1.8. Hooray, no MCC quests to do.
- Some of the minor 1.8 bugs in jGE still exist in the English GE.
- Exp rate is similar to the Korean exp table, which is quite tedious to level. I’m trying to get Jonathon to increase the exp rate, telling him that we don’t have the perservence Korean gamers have, Lol.
- There are no voices in the game. Those who play jGE would probably cry since we will miss those anime seiyuu voices.
- The translations are decent and understandable, but according to Jonathon, they’ll brush up the english before relasing the closed beta.
- Closed beta will be released sometime in November.



2. What’s GE.sg servers running on and what’s the internet infracture?

Quote:
The current test environment for G.E is running for medium specification servers, there are 40 units of servers mounted in a datacenter located in Singapore. For security issues, we cannot reveal the OS of the servers.


3. How many servers will be avaliable on GE.sg?

Quote:
There will be at least 6 realms to begin with in open beta. Each realm requires at least 20 units of servers. Hence, a full infrastructure of blade servers will be deployed for G.E.

Looks like a very nice game, but I think I'll wait till after beta to try it out.
Nov 8, 2006 1:31 am
Looks pretty, finally a non - engrish game with nice graphics. If they get rid of the text glitches it will be perfect.
B> new PC to play this. ; - ;
