Naruto: Evolution

The game has a ton of potential, but there really are a ton of things that would make somebody walk away. Aside from how the game was developed internally, the training system is nice but it can create a very unfriendly environment for newbies.

The fact that players can run around spam killing anyone they wish can a big problem if there isn't rules set. There needs to be some way to keep abuse to a minimum with both training and PvP.

The way the game was programmed creates a ton of server-side lag due to long loops and unsafe programming techniques.

Client-side lag isn't too bad, but it still won't work well with older machines. That's always going to be the price for a higher ended game so I don't have much negative feedback here.

Due to NE's source being leaked, its put a bad name on NE itself even though 95% of NE's player-base is on the official server.

The frequent messages about "I'm working on NE" and "I have a lot going on in life" provides players with worry about putting forth hard work into an enjoyable game and then having it all disappear due to a personal life. With this matter I hope that Crazah does his best to ensure the servers future if he plans on running his project again.

Overall, NE's visual output is amazing and really draws people in. However the horrid server-side lag creates an unfriendly environment for new and current players. The bugs should be being fixed at a reasonable rate and that server lag should be worked on as much as possible. Active GMs and Events would be a plus if there isn't already.

Crazah, I wish the best of getting things going here. I'm always a MSN Message/Text away if you need me. However I won't be much help when it comes to doing the actually programming. It's too much for what I have going on. However I'm very sure you can manage that part without anyone else. Good luck, mate.
