We are putting up the “real” Beta build this evening. All characters will be wiped for this build! We apologize for the inconvenience, but there are enough changes that this is necessary. We think you’ll find many of your issues addressed in this build. We’ve been listening closely to your input and putting it into practice, along with all the things we wanted to change. The servers will be brought down shortly, and when they come back up, it will be with the new build. You will not have to re-install, just log in. Once it’s running and stable, we’ll be expanding the community a bit. Enjoy!!!
While we were made aware of the start of Mythos’ beta test a few days ago, the press release from Ping0 just wentout this morning.
“The opening of the closed beta program is a real milestone in the development of Mythos,” said Phil Shenk, Creative Director of Mythos and founding member of Flagship Studios, “With its simple pick-up-and-play gameplay and an ever-expanding universe, the beta test will offer players their first opportunity to experience the Mythos universe before the commercial release later this year.”
Mythos is an online, action role-playing game that is free to download and free to play. Set in the land of Uld – a fantasy world arising from the ashes of an epoch-long war of darkness – players assume the roles of fantasy heroes as they explore, adventure, and quest through entirely randomized dungeons and environments. With an elegant point-and-click interface and an accessible “isometric” perspective, Mythos is poised to have near-universal appeal. The game allows thousands of players to interact within the same world while using mostly “instanced” dungeons to create unique gaming experiences suited for both solo and group-minded players.
For those who haven’t gotten into the test yet, you can sign up here.
