25arp26 No s***, Sherlock. I said it was against the rules. What the f*** is wrong with your head?
should you really talk like that a Mod Mr. Calm and Collected.
When a Mod edit your post and delete the part where you already said it was against the rules and right after notify you that it is against the rules just to show some work I guess everything is possible, no?

Everyone is mad at GF because they let us think that the game would not have IpBlock (I even create a thread on the first day of the beta asking if we would receive such thing, no one from the staff responded, don't know why) but keeping creating threads about it won't solve anything because they already "explained" what happen and the people who can play will alert the staff so the thread gets closed.
@Edit
Wnat my advice? Forget the game and let's just play something else. Don't even use VPN (at least not on GF's servers. JP server got some lag but they are still better). The hype for this game will die and the population will start to decrease quick and, who knows, maybe GF can take SEA and SA license away from smilegate and open the servers for us again.
Edit by 25arp26, content
There aren't many game publishers in South America. And most screw up big time which causes the games to die within weeks or months, sadly.
This is why my hopes for an actual south american server of Soul Worker are really low. I do hope GF eventually lets us back in.
Well until they make us download a new update that it isn't from the client or they don't banned the accounts we can still play the game. If any of this happens later on we can still use a VPN but I'm kinda tired of using it.
Again, the lack of information is destroying here. They NEVER bring up the possibility of a IpBlock. =/
That's very common, indeed. But sometimes It's even worse and they host it on european servers. Let's hope if we ever get a south american server it will be a proper one.
Besides LevelUp Games (since they already got Elsword), I can't think of anyone that would take this kind of game. At least here on Brazil.
If they knew that other company has the right licenses for south america, asia, sea.. etc etc. Then it should've launched from the BEGINING with IP BLOCK.
Don't you agree?.
More people to help them do their jobs with feedbacks. As soon as most of the problems were found by the users and fixed, they put the IpBlock.
Simple =/

Dear SoulWorkers,
We will be carrying out server maintenance on 05/03/2018, starting at 14:00 CET in order to apply some minor bug fixes, changes in the chat filter and to do some optimizations on server side, meaning you will have to download a client patch. The maintenance period will take at least 2 hours. Web services and servers will not be reachable during this time.
Stay up to date on any changes to the timetable by checking in on our forum and also on our social media channels on Facebook and Twitter.
Not sure what time this is where you are? Check https://time.is/CET
Note regarding IP block: Players from regions which are not under our licensing rights unfortunately are not able to access our version of SoulWorker.
The SoulWorker Team
Friendly reminder: CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My first mistake was that I didn't wait for someone from the staff to respond the thread and got all happy and shit. But, again, maybe even the staff didn't know about this one. GameForge kinda sucks when dealing with information...
Now, our only hope is that someone else bring the game for SA. The hype was kinda big so maybe this can be kinda possible. Or do the same thing we do with the Jap server but with GF's server.
It kinda sucks that they let us play the game on a broken server (at the beginning) and it sucks even more if you were one of the people that help the servers improve with feedbacks and all the sudden a wild IpBlock appears.
Still doenst answer what happen to the players who are able to play and been playing since last week?
At some point we, the IpBlocks players, will have to download a new client from the site to log in the game. That's how they will deal with us, since we probably won't be able acess the page without a VPN.
So, VPN it is guys. Dug up your on grave because now AT LOT of "trolls" will not give a shit. Sad =/
The biggest problem here is the lack of information. With the possibility of the game not having a wype in the end of the "beta test" makes people wanted to play the game, but now with this pseudo IpBlock (or whatever you wanna call this whole situation), I don't know if it is worth it to waste time in the game if my country will actually receive a IpBlock (wich it isn't unusual since my whole fuc**** game community is full of trolls. Fuck you Brazil) even if I can join the server right now.
Display Moref you think someone talking a different language is enough to put a IpBlock then yeah, it is selfish. Besides, putting a IpBlock when the game didn't have one on the beginning will not resolve the "problem of people talking different languages" or any other problem. It will only get worse.
Sorry but I'm going to clear this.
Looking from outside while you don't understand the language you can think "Nah it's fine, it's just the words". But it's not.
Take Vietnamese as an example here. Some people actually used bad words on mega. And public chatting as well. We who can understand the language are annoyed by those words. As far as I know, some players from other regions were actually annoyed by it as well.
What makes it worse is the fact that they used mega for pointless purpose: Once the game is officially released, imagine your mega selling something being dragged up for NO REASON AT ALL. Now THAT is a problem.
Among the community, we don't use Vietnamese for public chatting, nor that we do use it for mega. We either use English or just shut up and let somebody translate all the stuff we need. Sadly, part of the community is just pure trash- they like spamming bad words in Vietnamese in public as if it helps them prove something, and we can't do anything about it.
As much as we hate it, we need to admit, we'd rather see our country's IP getting blocked than let the player base have a bad look on us- this actually IS happening right now among the Elsword community, many of them hate us because of the pointless mega spamming (and the lag as well).
So yeah, "speaking other language" might be a reason that leads to IP block.
(Tbh, if the community is annoyed by this, I personally will suggest the dev to block our IP as well.)
Put up a "Block system", like ANY OTHER GAME, and block the people who keep abusing the megaphone channel. And if you know what they are saying then take screenshot and ask for the staff to remove then from the game. But I guess I'm asking to much, right?
Yeah, let's just IpBlock (wich it can be easily bypass with a simple vpn) a entire country because of two-three as***** that we can't keep banned because they keep creating new accounts.
This just shows how good the staff is when handling a problem.
They blocked Brazil to, without any announcement just ridiculous.
A game blocking BRS might be the best thing I could ever hear imo, now just block china and we'll be set
Should've realized gameforge will make this game exclusive to selfish people like you
How is expecting someone to speak English on an NA server selfish?
If you think someone talking a different language is enough to put a IpBlock then yeah, it is selfish. Besides, putting a IpBlock when the game didn't have one on the beginning will not resolve the "problem of people talking different languages" or any other problem. It will only get worse.
Display MoreWell there's people talking in different languages in the NA server.
(Korean, Japanese, etc.)
It's probably why they're starting to IP block.
Were they talking to you?

Ip blocking entire nations for talking another language in an MMO, Naice conclusion you got there m8.
You're taking out your anger on the wrong person.
Be mad at gameforge, not me.
Sorry, but I'm not mad. I actually want to know why two people can't use a different language to talk to each other on a american server. That's why i asked if they were talking to you, cause if they were I can understand your argument.
And again, I was able to join the servers. What I really want to know is what hell is this whole thing.
It is Steam's team mistake, GameForge's miskate or they actually can't even do a IpBlock right? Or is it going to have a IpBlock at all? Again, the lack of information is the big problem with the current staff taking care of this game.

It seems they removed it the IPBlock. At least I was able to connect on the game.
(Brazil)
Its simple. This "Open Beta + Stress test" just showed who are the ones that "can" play the game and the ones that can't play the game. Its way more easy to just Ip Block the ones that can't play then fixing your shit. But again, we will continue to do the same bullshit we did with the japanese servers.
This whole thing just show that ENMasse should be the one taking care of Soul Workers. They a doing a good (kinda) work with Closers. At least better than this.
I get this is obt and even a game that has gone threw cbt into obt will still have some form of issues. But couldn't some of this have been avoided if we had a proper cbt-obt-launch
Like lets be for real the game isn't going to pull in that many people but I feel It will have or try to have a steady player base. But from what Ive noticed lately when it comes to gamers 1st impressions matter and srry this a bad start for a game that delayed its cbt/obt in the first place. Just a lil disappointed I guess
What kind of none server related problems are you seeing that would justify another CBT?
Because I can guaranteed to you that if this was a CBT we would still have the same problems. Strees test or not, the servers wasn't ready at all. Simple.
I feel that most of the problems (if not ALL) would be solved if they had a proper cbt-obt like you said. It feels like the problems everyone is having right now its not because the servers can't handle the amount of players, but because the servers wasn't ready at all.
The worst part is that we got no words from the staff. The only problem was the login screen and that is it. They should close the server and fix the BASICS shit. Keeping open like that just to satisfy a small group of people that got lucky and can play without any problem is stupid.
People getting frozen when trying to get in the dungeons, the need to close and open the game until you can see your character, the constant DC some people keep getting. This is why you do a Alpha test and a Closed Beta teste BEFORE you do a Strees test. And if you say that they already did, I think this game will not last as long as it should with the current staff.What does has Alpha and Closed Beta has to do with a stress test? It's not like there are gameplay issues to deal with.
They are just testing stability of the servers as they said they would.
What did you actually expect during stress test? Lag free gameplay? No freezes or Disconnects?
I know i sound like a white knight, but come on, servers have only been up for 14 hours. Give them time to do adjustments.
Wow... Just, wow...
No gameplay issue? Really? Bosses getting stuck in the walls is not a gameplay issue? Please, don't try to defend the game as it is right now. And no, I'm not stupid to think that it would be a lag/dc free gameplay. Even right now when almost everyone already gave up and there is less people playing you still can't even pass the character screen whitout something going wrong.
And no, this is not GameForge's first game they bring to us so there is NO excuse for this sh****.
