</a><a href="http://www.ryzom.com/en/"><em>Ryzom</em></a> might be a five-year-old game, but despite the few hiccups it went through, it remains an attractive and diverse game with a number of features still not widely found in the genre.  Having celebrated its anniversary earlier this year, the game continues to roll along at a steady clip, exemplified by the <a href="http://forums.ryzom.com/showthread.php?t=34685">newly-released patch 1.7</a>.  The patch's title, The Kitin's Lair, alludes to one of its central elements: a new zone, the first part of the aforementioned lair.  Kitins are one of the game's central adversaries, and so the patch's warning to avoid entering the lair alone is no doubt well-advised.<br />
<br />
That's hardly the only feature in the latest patch, however -- the game has also added an overhauled mail system, in-game forums for roleplaying and guilds, and the ability to enter viewable character biographies built in to the game's engine.  The game has also adjusted the level display system, now using numbers to indicate the target's level only when it is close to that of the player.  The addition of official <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7">Windows 7</a> support makes <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/Ryzom/">Ryzom</a></em> more accessible, so the game's players would do well to <a href="http://forums.ryzom.com/showthread.php?t=34685">take note of what the patch brings</a>, and those of you who've never heard of the game may want to give it a fresh look.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/12/17/ryzom-launches-1-7-patch/">Ryzom launches 1.7 patch</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Thu, 17 Dec 2009 16:00:00 EST.
