How To Play Dragon's Dogma ONLINE In 2024 (complete guide)

[@viniciusmeneses2497]

A small correction. At minute 0:48, you must put the game on drive C and rename the folder 2x. This way the translation script will work. It should look like this "C:\DDONGame\DDON\"

[@judgebao]

very crucial process, thank you!

[@hex5884]

this is what i need to do as well

[@midnightsrealm4955]

Hey so i did this "C:\DDONnewgame\DDONnewgame" and it runs, or must it be like yours?

[@viniciusmeneses2497]

@@midnightsrealm4955 Not sure. If when u drop the "rom" folder in the script it runs with no problem, that's it good. If doesn't, than do just like me.

Never been a PC Gamer. Just got myself one to play this and get some mods for DD2.

[@blockbrush]

So been playing for a bit, and it's really fun. It feels like a dragon's dogma game. but it's still a heavy work in progress, like half the functionality is missing and the desync is rough. When playing with someone else, also the netcode is fucking garbage, but there's not much that can be done because that was Capcoms doing. The developers are wizards for getting this far, but for all that bellyaching, it's still worth playing because there's nothing like this on the market.

[@David-jw1zh]

Is anyone else still confused on how to download this?

[@magicwhiterabbit1195]

Great explaing cheers man

[@BossXAOC]

A few questions : 1. Are there any EU servers which are also active? 2. How would you describe what this MMO makes so special? 3. I absolutely love DD1 and 2 but I am not the biggest MMO fan due to boring quest and world design, streched out grind which takes way too long and the over all repetetive nature of them. Do you think I still could have fun with DDO and if yes why do you think DDO is better than many other MMOS ( for Info: I actually loved ff14, because i liked the job system and was really engaged with the story )

[@laith_iris]

The server linked here is hosted in germany

[@dmitrypavlov7096]

Because you can play solo if you wish with party of pawns (just like DDDA)

[@mathieu499]

the combat is revolving around the holy trinity, u'll benefit a lot from having friends with different classes, for instance a shield sage will be able to get the agro, inflict a ton of status effects, even have an indestructible bubble that can protect everyone inside for a while. other classes will be able to expose monster weak point, so that the dps can do max damage and so on. fighting in this game is so much cooler than in any other, u'll for sure live some epic moment there : )

[@Gaming_Legend2]

it isn't the case with most private server projects, we don't often get the source codes of games like this and everything is compiled so making new stuff without the tools they used is pretty much impossible, they could make custom quests i think, with enough time

Just a small black window after logging in, I've tried running it as Admin for both launcher and client. Anyone have an Idea? I've tried this guide and the one on Discord. I tried with all files, I've tried with just the first 3 files. Nothing different. I made sure to get rid of all files every time to not duplicate or corrupt anything.

[@dsmooveagle18]

I've been asking for this. I just need to get on the server.

[@pogkun7106]

So im having a odd issue. I download the Google drive version and extracted it. Named the folder exactly the same and all, however my NativePC folder within didn't have all the same files yours did (not including the files we move over later). I ignored it for the time being and went ahead and followed the rest of the guide and did as you asked. I noticed when I opened up the launcher it is MASSIVE, it is stretched wide across the screen, made a account, entered it in and click login annnnnnd, nothing happens. Launcher closes down and it goes nowhere. Dunno if the Google drive version is worked or if it extracted poorly orrrr

[@pogkun7106]

Mkay looking into it more i downloaded and extracted your google drive version of the game twice and both times it gave me incomplete folders. I tried the 2nd link you provided and it worked better I believe.

ok so if the links for the main files arent working for you, go to the discor from the link in the description and look for the link to ddon and from the to the client download guide... there's a link to the torrent for the main files

[@eaglex1007]

I have several questions. 1. Does the server work just like when DDO still alive? Something like seeing other players around in the White Dragon Temple, and not just some feature that you can only get after running some specific DDO's Co-op support software...etc. 2. Will the server ever get reset whenever there's an update for new contents and such? Will player's datas such as character, levels, achievement, progress, account get wiped out if server gets reset? 3. Does the game have all of the equipments including those from events when DDO was alive? If so, are they hard to obtain? I'd appreciate if the difficulties are about the same like the old DDO, not too hard and not that easy, just needed some grindings perhaps. Though if they can only be obtained by spending an enormous amount of gold (in-game currency) then i think it might be a bit too hard. 4. Does Baza in the game work? Such as selling and buying stuffs from other players. How's the market's prices? Are they reasonable or just straight up robbery? 5. Does the crafting system, equipment dye, weapon enhancement, equipment crest work? 6. Can you register your pawns and hire other player's pawns through the rift? 7. Does the storage chest and character fashion display work? 8. Are there admins or rules to prevent bad players from breaking the game or behaving badly toward other players? Is there penalty for those bad intensions? Would they get banned or simply just got their account deleted?

[@dmitrypavlov7096]

The game development went very rapid recently, few skilled coders joined the project and busted the development process. So every new update brings (revives) a lot of new features to the game. Now devs said they're reworking some old item management system and once they finish the game will get a huge amount of newly revived features and it will be easier to add new features with reworked one. 1. Devs remove any pay2win and other pay aspects of og. 2. Server owner promised there will be no reset. 3. There are a lot of items in the game and server owner set up some custom events for fashion and rare gear. 4. Bazaar is working. Players can sell\buy materials 5. Basic crafting system works but still wip - you can craft weapon and armor but you can't upgrade it yet. Devs promised to release upgrading, crests etc soon. 6. As for now you will be given 3 free pawns that you can invite in your party and customize their appearance. But very soon they will release more refined pawn system where players can hire other players pawns. Also after the update to get additional two main pawns you will need to unlock them. 7. ? Didn't understand the question. But storage, inventory, shops etc do have a preview window where you can watch your char\pawn equipped with selected item. And there is transmog system. 8. Well, I dunno, but most likely. I mean I never met bad player in this game yet. Everyone are nice and friendly. But of course you can screenshot and send the screenshot to server owner and he will be able to ban the bad player.

[@eaglex1007]

@@dmitrypavlov7096 That's actually some pretty good progress on reviving the game. What i wanted to know on the first question was, do i have to run a Co-op support software in order to meet other players or they're already in the game when i log in. Lets say when i get into the game i spawned at the White Dragon Temple, is there other players running around or is it just only me? On 7th question, Inventory aside. Can i put my items into the storage box? And about the fashion display feature, can my character show the equipment that i wanted to select? Let say my character is wearing an ugly armor but it has a high stat in defense and i want to wear a good looking armor so that fashion display feature allows me to show the good looking one as my appearance while having the high stat of the ugly one.

[@idropthepen1744]

@@eaglex1007 Hay, You can transmog/glamour over your current gear, and the storage box are working too. For multiplayer you just need to party up in the tempel and go out adventureing. Outside of the tempel, you only see partymembers. And if someone goes around insulting people or has an inappropriate name or anything else, we will of course take action against it. Just let us know and take a screenshot : )

[@eaglex1007]

@@idropthepen1744 Ahh ok, thanks for the confirmation. So that is the actual meaning of the word transmog, i translated it in Google trans at first but got confused because it meant transmission/transmit in my language. Camouflage would be more appropriate imo :)

@@eaglex1007 Yeah, after unpacking the archive, downloading launcher you are good to go. When you will spawn at the WDT you will see some people. Yes you can put items in your storage box. And yes there is layered armor system (transmog or something). You just switch to fashion tab in your inventory and chose the gear you want to be show instead of actual (ugly) one - head gear, chest armor, legs armor, clothing etc. And the same with weapon.
