RF Online: Exclusive Q&A at Warcry - Ten Ton Hammer

What You Can Expect From Our Korean Friends in the Future
Warcry ran a few questions by RF Online's Community Manager, Kyle Rowley, to see what he thought of the current state of the game and where he thinks it is heading in the future. Check out a piece of the action below:

We always knew that the game would only really appeal to a niche market, so we never expected to hit World of WarCraft numbers. By successfully launching and operating RF Online, Codemasters Online Gaming have learnt a lot about all the different aspects of MMO games operation - this ranges from community interaction, server maintenance, developer relations and a host of other key areas. Our service can only get better as we learn from our mistakes on other products, so we have very high hopes for our future titles - especially The Lord of the Rings Online.
