Android web page

Recommended Posts

Fake_kain and I have been working at a web page for the Android client. I would like some feedback on it. Please visit it on your tablet or phone: http://www.eternal-lands.com/android

 

Please note that the download link doesn't point to a valid file yet, so don't report that. Another issue I noticed was that when clicking on screenshots, their aspect ratio is wrong in portrait mode. Other than that, I would like some feedback.

Suggestion for first few sentences:

 

Eternal Lands is a Free MMORPG, which now runs on Android as well.

 

Eternal Lands is a Free MMORPG which has been in existence for over 14 years on Windows, Linux, and OSX. Eternal Lands now runs on Android as well. You can play on the same server using the phone or desktop client.

I like the opening sentence weaverdas posted, its good to let prospective players how long the game has been running but in the first sentence drop the "as well" its sufficient to say "Eternal Lands is a Free MMORPG which has been in existence for over 14 years on Windows, Linux, and OSX. Eternal Lands is now also available on Android" In the next sentence "It works on all the Android devices we tested, even on very cheap tablets". Drop the part "even on very cheap tablets" again I feel its not needed. Minor adjustments to the following sentence

"However, in order to get a nice experience, we recommend a large screen (5.5" or larger) and a decent CPU. It works pretty well on a Samsung S5, which is a 3 years".​ Change to "In order to get a nice experience, we recommend a large screen (5.5" or larger) and a decent CPU. It works well on older devices".​ (Some people use devices older than 3 years)

It's in your signature. Imageshack killed their free hosting, and replaced images with their ads. Change your signature to get rid of it.

Why should I drop the cheap tablets part? It's a strong selling point. So is that it works very well on an S5, people will have some terms to compare to.

I went through the content and reworked it a bit. My suggested content:

 

Eternal Lands - Android client

Eternal Lands is a Free MMORPG that has been in existence for over 14 years on Windows, Linux, and OSX. Eternal Lands is now also available on Android!

 

It works on all the Android devices we tested, even on very cheap tablets. For the best experience, we recommend a large screen (5.5" or larger) and a decent processor. It works pretty well on a Samsung S5, which is a 3 years old device.

VIDEO HERE

 

Here is an overview of what Eternal Lands has to offer:

· Choose from several races to create and customize your character

· No fixed classes, you can assign your attributes on the go

· Click to move (similar to Runescape, Diablo, etc.)

· Many maps to explore on two continents

· PvE oriented, but there are PvP areas as well

· Friendly community that will usually help you if you ask

· Lots of one-time and daily quests with plenty of variation

· Many skills to develop

· You don't have to fight (much) if you don't like it. You can harvest resources, make items, trade, and develop skills

· Over 1000 items, including weapons, armors, potions, ores, plants, tools, and books

· Day and night cycle which affects some aspects of the game

· Events with other players, such as monster invasions, or on your own, like treasure hunting

 

Please visit eternal-lands.com for more details and information about the game.

Quick Start Guide:

After you install the game and create and name your character, visit the Tutorial NPC and follow the instructions.

 

Keep in mind that the tutorial is written for the Desktop version, so a few things will be a bit different. However, the Android client is generally more intuitive.

If you get stuck, or just need some help, you can ask the people on the newbie channel.

· Double click on one of the camera rotation bars to bring up the keyboard.

· Type "@Hello" (without quote marks) to say Hello to the people in the active channel. Without @, players nearby will see your message.

 

Download the client here: http://www.eternal-lands.com/el_android.apk to get started on your adventure!

 

Please keep in mind that this is a Beta version, and there will be some improvements in the future. If you encounter any problems, please visit our forums at http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/.

SCREENSHOTS HERE

Special thanks:

I would like to thank the author of GL4ES, a library that has saved me a lot of work in porting the client. If you need your OpenGL 1.x program to run on GLES contexts, this is the best library to use.

Probably want to feed character before taking screen shots again. I know some players never bother with feeding but the negative shown is something which will turn some players off rather than understanding it is something you control.
