FIESTA OPENS ITS DOORS TO GAMERS
Vibrant Online Fantasy MMORPG Available Free of Charge from Outspark; Players are Invited to Visit the Official Fiesta Store to Enhance their Game Experience.

SAN FRANCISCO - November 7, 2007 - Outspark, a new unique publisher and operator of free online community games, today announced the commercial premiere of Fiesta, a vibrant massively multiplayer role-playing game that is easy to pick up and play. Supporting the game is the opening of the official Fiesta Store, where players can purchase a variety of premium items designed to enhance their gaming experience.

The availability of Fiesta commemorates a special occasion for Outspark, as the game is the first from a company focused on building a distinct "virtual playground" filled with games for players of all ages and experience levels. Completely free to download and play, Fiesta can be found at http://fiesta.outspark.com.

Set in the animated and colorful world of Isya, Fiesta offers players plenty of adventure and opportunities for camaraderie. Create a character based on one of four different classes, battle exotic beasts, craft scrolls and potions and come face to face with thousands of fellow players.

In addition to dynamic daily events, dedicated Game Masters and an active community of players, Fiesta now features a store where players can purchase premium items to upgrade, customize and enhance the gameplay experience.

Some of the items now available for purchase include:

* Consumable potions to temporarily increase stats like health and spirit points
* Mounts: players can move faster atop steeds including wooden and iron horses
* Pets: small companions including mini Phinos and Boogys that sit on a player's shoulder and boost their stats
* Mini Houses: regenerate health and spirit points or even sell items in a stylish Rabbit or Windmill House
* New clothing and item packages offering a variety of useful goodies

In addition to Fiesta's uniquely crafted virtual world, interactive community, regular events and accessible Game Masters, the game features a Player-vs-Player (PvP) battle zone and guild functionality. Other features in development include marriage capability and a master and apprentice system. Join Fiesta and experience an engaging story filled with mythical creatures, enigmatic enemies and a cast of memorable characters.

Fiesta was developed by Korea's Ons On Soft for the PC. For more information and to become a part of the Fiesta community, visit http://fiesta.outspark.com

<.< Is this the announcement we've all been waiting for? Note the date.

LIARS! LIARS!

ok so "Outspark, a new unique publisher and operator of free online community games, today announced the commercial premiere of Fiesta..." should mean its no longer beta...

"In addition to dynamic daily events (daily?), dedicated Game Masters (dedicated?) and an active community of players (That's US! XD) "

"the game features a Player-vs-Player (PvP) battle zone and guild functionality" We dont hv a PvP battle zone! they're probably twisting the GvG as PvP...

Things they say to get ppl to play......... but i'm still addicted.... XD

I think you're addicted to the community, if we all weren't here, would you be?

hmmmm maybe HAHA

dispite them not addressing to any problems... the problems that they're not addressing havent really affect me.... i got frustrated that all the lvl 4x quest were bugged but they fixed it so i was very happy...

I've never really played a game were that active anyway... so i guess i dunno wat the "good stuff" are..... =/

but i cant help but laugh at all the lies they made... keke

I'm tempted to make a thread and be like "Is it in beta or not???" lol

Nov. 7th 2007?! Now they want us to go back to the past and listen to the press, *sigh* me no think it possible

Total BS.

Especially with the deticated GMs.

I want to hear AngellicDiety's reply. LOL

i actually did a search with keyword "Open Beta" and i think there were some threads on the official forum about it too keke... i iddnt go in and read it though... but if u're interested there might be something there... keke

I just remembered I was reading one... I don't remember hearing anything official from a GM =/

yeah i think they're turning a blind eye on that.... together with everything else HAHA

Hmm... this sounds iffy--like OutSpark is trying to straddle two sides of the fence:

"Come! We're not in Open Beta anymore because this is our commercial premiere. But, oh wait, sorry. We're still in development."

Though to be fair, commercial development=/=end of Open Beta.

*shrug*

i suppose they can call themselves watever they want and its not really gonna change much of wat we get in the short term....

We aren't in open Beta? I assumed we still were. Who cares? Even if this game has been officially released, the content we have compared to other versions makes us still a beta, in my opinion anyway.

=D My opinion too!
From what I've heard, CB1 and CB2 was okay, but now CB, there's just strangeness going around. We're not developing as much as we should, and the potential Fiesta had is starting to slowly evaporate ...

Dedicated GMs? Maybe. That could speak for some of them, but not for all. COOOOOOUGH.

I hope that announcement would come true sometime Dx

um, yoshi, where did you find this release? A source would be good. I'm compiling a thread to post on outspark.

I'm pretty sure the last 30 or so posts i've seen by you have been nothing but faces.

I imagine this would be the source, but there's already at least one thread regarding it on the Outspark forum.
