Anyone heard of Aion?

Dont know if anyone has heard of this new game coming out soon, but it looks pretty cool. It is an MMORPG like WoW, from NC Soft. The makers of Lineage 2, City Of Heroes/Villains, Guild Wars, etc. I have only played Guild Wars from them so I dont know what the rest are like, but this game is not like Guild Wars at all. I know a lot of people didnt like how GW played, so that is probably a good thing.

for Graphics, the game uses a modified CryEngine so it is pretty graphically intense for an MMORPG. I can play it just fine on high settings, 16x AF, 4x AA, and 1600x1200 resolution with a single ATI 4890 and a Phenom 940. But it does get kind of laggy in cities with a lot of people.

Aion will be released on September 1st, and if you pre-order you can get a few special items. Although the items will probably be mostly useless like all games that have pre-order stuff. But at least you get a free pair of lvl 30 wings to fly with.

Played closed beta tests 1, 2 and 3, and really enjoyed them. Looks promising. :)

I played in beta 3. Was very fun. A good forum to check out would be www.aionsource.com

I've been keeping an eye on this game as well, but didn't get into any of the recent beta runs. The game is gorgeous but I really hope NCSoft learns from Lineage 2 and creates more then a huge grind session with an out of control economy. Let's not forget the limited Weapon and Armor Options once you hit high levels....everyone looked like a clone.

BTW, I played Lineage 2 for 4 years on and off

I think I have only done some grinding once so far in one of the betas. There are a lot of quests in the game and they give a pretty good amount of experience. Perhaps they learned too much and there wont be any/enough grinding at all this time around...

Korean based MMO without the grind??? I'll believe it when I see it :)

Oops, needs 56K warning.

I've never heard of this game before, and I'm not a fan of MMO, TBH. Anyway, the game looks good though. The modified "CryEngine" word catches my attention, LOL.

It could just be me but I'm seeing some Oblivion-looking textures on the game, just resemblance, maybe.

the lack of an end game doesnt bother me in an mmo, but i hope pvp will be worthwhile

The lack of end game PvE content was fixed in patches for Korean version already, 15+ group instances added.
PvP has been fine since the launch of Korean version.

wow 15 instances in 1 patch? Looks like it has a ton of potential, I've been looking at the pvp vids on youtube. I'm also liking what people are saying about it in terms of difficulty.

Is it going to have a monthly fee?

Playing beta - game rocks =) .

Yes. I'd expect the standard $15/mo, but I'm not sure if they've specified the actual rate.

That's a shame, I guess I'll wait for Guild Wars 2. I don't game enough to justify paying a monthly fee

Guild Wars 2 has some nice looking gameplay "specs", and it is supposed to be free per month like the original. I like Guild Wars a lot, especially for being a free monthly game. But it just doesnt have enough good skill combos in it, basically everything after the first campaign became massive ammount of mobs throughout the game with very little story, started focussing too much on PvP and dropping nearly all PvE. Then the nerf hammers started raining down and basically anytime someone found a decent combo it was nerfed and completely useless. That went on so long that all balance went completely out the windows and it game just seems like it doesnt work right anymore.

I am hoping this game doesnt follow down that same path, but it seems fine so far. The creators also seem to be taking the bugfixes and some suggestions much more seriously than during the Guild Wars beta events which is a good sign.


How did this last beta go that ends in 20 minutes? I didnt play at all this time cause I was letting my sister try out the game so she was on all weekend :/

anyone looked at continent of the ninth? If you can hunt down a HD video of the gameplay you'll see what looks like benchmark currently as far as graphics, combos, etc etc.

Unfortunately, by the time GW2 comes out I think it'll be overshadowed by many other clones that produce the platform. The edge they retain is that its free to play once you pay the initial cost. I wonder if they nerf hammer GW in order to "motivate" players to move on to GW2.

I have the collectors pre-ordered... Might have a WoW killer here... :(

well im sure as you know what they are doing is with hall of monuments etc, you can keep your maxed titles and pets and weapons armour etc... soooo thats an incentive to start off fecking powerful lol...

GW2 beta will be early next year imo.... it took 7 years for gw to be made and it's been 5 since the announcement iirc of gw2 ... so a year of beta testing etc.. will be nice :) annoying how they keep delaying etc.. it sucks :(



but this game looks really great.... thats it's downfall .. wow is so big cos 90% of computers and laptops can play it and run it fine!!!

Ya, this game seems like the "Crysis" of MMORPG games when it comes to graphics. I guess that is to be expected since it uses the CryEngine though... I did notice that a lot of the world textures are kinda low res, whil;e the character and monster textures seem ot be much higher res. They probably did that to make it playable with such a large world and so many people in it. But the good news is that I can play this game fine on 1600x1200 witha single 4890, so people with lower end computers should be able to play no problem on 1280x1024 or 1280x768. But you will definitely need a graphics card from sometime in the past couple years to play this, any older and you will have to turn the settings way down.

Has anyone tried turning the graphics down all the way yet? I wonder how bad it would look all the way down, probably pretty close to WoW. The minimum specs are pretty down low...

Aion Minimum Requirements:
CPU : Pentium 4 2.0GHz
RAM :1GB
VGA :GeForec FX 5600(128MB), DirectX 9 or higher
OS :Windows XP

Ill have to see how it looks during beta event 5 at the end of this month.

graphics from screens arent much better than wow.

the graphics dont fit in with one another, the difference between the models and the background is so huge, just look at the picture with the dragon.

The graphics are stunning.

The crafting system/economy is "interesting"

The PvE is (at least for the american version so far) so-so.

This is a VERY PvP centric game. Not to the levels of Lineage (which is pretty much nothing but PvP) or Warhammer, but still very PvP oriented.

Most of the PvP centers around the abyss area, but you CAN be ganked in your home region. From what I hear, ganking is not a big issue with the korean version as everyone's busy in the abyss, but it remains to be seen if this westernized port works out that way as well. (I doubt it though, the US PvP games seem to attract a larger segment of the a**hat players, imo at least).

Note that this Aion is a US/Westernized version of a Korean MMO that's been out for awhile now.

To anyone thats interested, Beta 5 is this weekend. You can go to Game Stop and pre-order the game for $5 to get your beta code. Try out the game and if you dont like it cancel the pre-order. If you like it, then you get early access to naming your characters when the game is released as well as a couple semi-useful items for early/mid game.

And here you can check when next beta starts up and final game + list of beta servers

CBT6 this weekend!!!

My Guild is gathering members we have formed up with a group of other guilds to get things rolling at launch. Just click on my home page for info if you want in.

I got sick of WoW because they catered to the whiners on the forums about "Nerf class X" or "Buff class Y" and they really screwed up the balance. It used to be, you could specialize your character to kill a certain class, and it made you weak to another class. With all the forum whining, you couldn't depend on your class to be playable a certain way from one week to the next. They continually made huge, sweeping, fundamental changes to classes and builds that made you have to re-learn your own character. Now it has all gotten diluted to a point of entropy.

I am always trying new MMOs even if they look like WoW, because I really enjoyed WoW, and hope they can at least get close, without screwing with balance too much. Warhammer was great, but the community just wasn't there. I am hoping Aion can do better.

QFT!

and changing the raids to 25 was fine... but 10man pretty much broke the necessity of belonging to a guild...

back in MC days... EVERYONE had to work hard to belong to a good guild... no whiners, no emo... well, not too much... and it somehow held the folks together better... now, with 10 man raid option... folks just throw a sissy fit and walk out, get 10 of their chums and sign up a new guild...

there's no sense of working together to overcome obstacles anymore...

Indeed, 10-man should not even be called a raid, I still remember when Stratholme was a 10-man (yeah, you COULD toss 40 people in there, but it was meant for 10). I don't want more Stratholme instances, I want more BWLs !

Okay, so the pronunciation to this game is...

A-on.
Eye-On.
Ee-On.

Which is correct? I call it A-On, however the intro to the Beta sings something like Eye-On.

Couldn't they call it something simple like Warcraft, where theres no possibility of mispronunciation?

Yeah this game looks pretty good, I picked up the beta package and looking forward to checking this one out. Tho I am not excited about getting into another MMORPG again.

Will grinding be heavy duty or more compared to WoW ?

More like WoW.

I played a 'lock in the early days, and agree, they needed fixes.

The Paladins not competing with DPS of DPS classes, or heals of Healing classes though ? When you pick a hybrid class, do you really expect to do as good at another classes specialty ? I never understood why paladins complained that they couldn't do the same DPS as rogues, or tank as well as warriors, or heal as well as priests... yet they had the capability of doing ALL THREE to a limited degree. I would like to see how good you do as a rogue healer, or a priest tank. If you choose a hybrid class, you should expect to be able to perform all of those duties, but not to be as good as a class that specializes in it. You have options, they do not. They deserve a huge benefit at their roles.

My issue was all the whiners saying crap like "I am a mage who specializes in fire and when I get attacked by an assassin rogue I don't have a chance !" Well, duh ! When a class specializes at killing one or two classes, they should be able to do it with a high percentage of success, because they did it at the expense of being weak at fighting other classes. Don't nerf that specialized class, or buff the victim against that specialization.

class changes were needed and fine.. i rolled a warr and stayed a warr... loved it...
now we have to AoE tank like pallys... fine... i got used to it...

but my biggest complaint was WoTLK... BC was fine... Kara 10man was fine... got folks a taste of raids... but WoTLK 10man raid everything was just dumb...
there's no sense of community any more...
there's no sense of having to learn to work as a team any more...
there's just so many guilds with dumb... and at times funny names...

it was a better game when people were "forced" to rely on each other.. on different classes...

i do miss the game.. i miss my friends.. community... there is none any more...

you guys makes me want to log into my character again... i miss my ape... yea, he was BigApe in silvermoon us...

Well before you do that, log in to Aion cause the Beta 6 event is going on now...

Is it possible to get into the beta for this game? Or at least check it out for a few hours?

You have to get the closed beta key first. Some sites used to sell early access keys for 5$ or so. Or you can pre-order the game and see.

Supposedly there will be an open beta soon. So you can try it out then.

Looks interesting but i'm holding out for FFXIV.

One word: theme park


I beta tested Aion and after a few weeks I just quit. The developers are trying desperately to hide a lack of game, behind all the flashy graphics. Terrible game, no challenge and nothing to character build.

Fun to play for about 3~4 weeks, just to explore. But the game has no sustainability and is like going to a themepark... there great to visit once a year... nothing more.

Yeah, I have very high hopes for FFXIV as well.

Still trying to figure a few things out, but so far the game is pretty good. Basic stuff like game lag I have almost none here on the west coast. Its a very polished game for a Beta, I have very little complaints.

The game is very nice looking, loads very quick and has prolly the best character creation I have seen yet. Characters actually look like the one you created ingame LOL. There are so many different ways to create your character I highly doubt you will see another ingame that looks 100% like yours.

The UI is pretty good, but hopefully there will be some addons so you can change things are a bit to suit your liking, not sure if addons will be allowed, in some ways I hope not.

There is still a great deal I have to learn about the game, like raids and instances if there is any. I have yet to group with anyone or even seen if there is any crafting. Stuff I look forward to checking out tho.

I happen to see one thing that was a turn off, that was a player sitting in a chair and turned into a merchant. I dont like that as it turns many meeting places into huge player merchant zones. Its to hard to find anything your looking for and compare prices. Plus it forces you to stay logged into the game while you might need your computer for something else.

I like the fact that I can login for a short bit and do something and not be forced into a long drawn out game session. Maybe at higher levels grinding exp might become much more noticable but so far its been under control.

All in all tho I like the game a great deal.

Looks rather intriguing simply due to it's graphics. The open beta is supposedly right around the corner as the closed beta ends today.

It looks like in US release date will be Sept 25th ?

So is there any info on what builds will look like ?
What I mean is there anything other than just buying spell books ? Is there and talent tree like setup, or other ways to build your characters.

I did not get outside of the beginners area, I assume that when you reach a certian level you can leave this area and head out to the bigger world.

Level 10 seems to be where you can pick certian classes that expand from the basic types we start at. Is there where we can decided things like a talent tree gives us ?

Thanks for any help.
I played up to level 9 and liked the game very much.

Did any of you guys pick up the Beta pack at Best Buy. When I look at my package it has two bar codes on it, one is for the regular version and one for teh collecters version. At the cash register I picked the collecters version.

I also thought that this will be a download only game and no box ?
If that is so how do they know I picked the collecters version as it only had one code ?

You can get Stigmas and equip them, they unlock new abilities. There are limitations so you will have to pick a few thus there will be many different builds.

Thanks Zal

I found some info on Stigmas
http://www.aionsource.com/forum/gene...ma-system.html

All in all that seems some what limiting as I am sure there will be a certian number of Stigmas that everyone will want. Unless there is a huge number of possible Stigmas to create many different build possibilities.

Plus not being able to use them until level 20 is a drag.

So basicly every class is the same until level 20....

Not sure if I like that

this is what bugs me about aion characters... yea they look good but...

aion ala Korean girl band 1
aion ala Korean girl band 2
aion ala Korean girl band 3

geesh...

either they model the characters after these girls or these girls model their faces after anime...

:D

True, its all ok tho with me.

This is my favorite youtube of these types.

Thanks for posting that, I missed it.

Good hear and I am looking forward to the game :up:

Heard of it, never actually read anything about it.

the pictures on the top are very good looking hd.

Open beta client download links can be found here.

Man downloading the Open Beta Client is taking forever :(

Of course when my machine crashed on me and had to rebuild the SSD Raid I lost the install from the last event so I could not simply patch to new client and have to redo the whole thing :(

Looking forward to this as we are getting closer to release.

Think I will still go with SM and perhaps a Sorc on release. SM has my first vote as I will be mostly solo, I think anyway. Getting so much harder to spend time with these games these days.

Well, I'm seeding, not so fast but meh, better than nothing. :)
I suggest using the torrent download.
Make sure to add a few retrackers to your download. Would be best to have the following:

It finally downloaded and patched it up, should be good to go now <crosses fingers>.

Fileplanet subscribers can now get an open BETA key: http://www.fileplanet.com/promotions.../?_cmpid=fp191

Are any of you guys having problems with GameGuard ?

I had no problems with the game in the last Beta, now when I fire it up I get the GameGuard error. Seems to some what common and not sure if it will work or not when things go live :(

I know OB hasnt started yet but just firing up the program to get to the login screen gets me this error with Win 7 64bit.

Id rather wait for Guild Wars 2, free and I already know the game system (4x 20lvl chars in GW1).

Oh, and NC Soft is the publisher, not the developer.

The open-beta doesn't require a paid subscription does it? When I try to get a key it just keeps sending me in a login loop.

Trying to get a key from where ?

No it doesnt require a sub for the open beta.

Not sure if Bestbuy or other stores still have the pre-order box, but I would look for one of those, it was only $5 with no requirement to actually purchase anything when released.




I ordered the CE box, any ideas if that will be a limited quanty thing, so something like the store only gets 5 CE's and 100 people pre-ordered it, man I hope not.

It should. If it doesn't, the fix is simple: you just have to download a more recent GameGuard.des file (since it has problems updating itself). If it still doesn't work when the beta starts, check AionSource or Google for it, and if that also doesn't work, PM me. :up:

GameGuard does NOT work with Windows 7 x64. Maybe not Win 7 x32 either. I had the same problem and thats what NC Soft told me. "When Win 7 is "closer to release" the company that makes GameGuard will have Windows 7 support" is what NC Soft told me. I told them that they are retarded for using software that isn't compatible with Windows 7 so close to launch.

Downnloading the full install via bittorrent. 250KB/s download and 400KB/s upload, should take around 12 hours. Heading out the door for class right now but does anyone know how we will create accounts for open beta?

That didnt seem to work.

When I installed this for OB I just used the NCSoft program to install.

Now redownloading the full client and will install that to see if it fixes anything.

Buckeye, read my post about GameGuard. That is what NC Soft themselves said. No install from them will help as you are just downloading the game from them, not some new version of GameGuard.

Yeah it worked fine last time on Win 7 64bit without any problems at all.

But in the event viewer there was some errors. Not sure how they are going to handle this problem, I mean Win 7 RTM has been out for some time now, just not on store shelves yet.

Found this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NProtec...uard#Windows_7

I tried that fix they posted, still recieved the same error...

Oh well I am not gonna worry about it until the 6th and see what happens then.

Pretty good description of errors and possible fix's.

http://www.aionsource.com/forum/beta...own-fixes.html

I get these error codes: Error code 124, 153

So just redownloading the full client and doing a reinstall, nothing else seems to fix this problem. Deleteing the GG folder and having the patcher redownload it doesnt help.

opps just found this in the that thread

Thank you for the update.

Currently when launching the updated version of the Aion client a website is popping up each time that refers to "Error code 124, 153".

We are aware of this issue and are working to resolve it. In the meantime please disregard this webpage and do not reinstall the game. We just need to wait for a new patch to resolve the issue.

If you have any other questions please let us know.

Regards,
Bill
NCsoft Technical Support

Gameguard has been fixed today. Should work for everyone once you patch to 1.5.0.3.

Nice to know Zal !

As I did my pre-order from BestBuy here in the US and I we should have a 2-day head start, plus I ordered the CE edition, I called BestBuy to see if they would actually have the game for sale on the 18th, of course no one knew :(

Looks like I will be at BestBuy at 10:00am when they open on the 18th to get my shot at the CE if they have a limited quanity.


*** Well I updated it and at least it didnt't throw up the GG error webpage this time, I still recieved an error that GG had to quit tho.

Hm, I can make it to the login screen just fine, odd... Oh, and running Windows 7 build 7100 x64.
I did a fresh install of 1.5 btw.

Yeah I have been trying to get a complete fresh download but so far they all seem to time out and not complete.
Oh yes I to can make it to the login screen just fine.

I am on fully updated Win 7 RTM 64bit

It's no biggie and I will just see what happens on the 6th.

Torrent! Download it from the torrent! 100% legal. :)

Yeah they have torrent links, but it takes toooo long :(

Open BETA is upon us!

Join me on Israphel;
Name: Kaitiaki
Race: Elyos
Class: Gladiator

Seems my problems with getting to login, entering login info and hitting ok would freeze the game, GG would also error out.

Problem was with Kaspersky 2010. Stopping it or even exiting Kas did not help. But a full uninstall of Kas 2010 and Aion is working fine.

Now the problem is Kaspersky 2009 does not work with Win 7 64 RTM so its only 2010.

:(

How do I create an open beta account?

edit: wait.. is the Aion open beta only for fileplanet subscribers? what the hell sort of open beta is that?

If anyone with an open beta account wouldn't mind me playing a few hours tonight I'd appreciate it. Already downloaded the client, just curious what the game looks like. Free open beta starts on Tuesday but I'm impatient.

No its not just Fileplanet, you can get the client for free from FP and many other places also.

To get a key just go to Bestbuy or Gamestop and get the Beta Pre-Order thingy, its only $5 and you are not required to actually buy it when its released.

Or wait until Tuesday.

As soon as every teenager gets tired of playing Asain females the game might be better, right now its like that "girl generation" thing. Hey lets fight monsters with swords and magic wearing a skirt or dress and heals.

So it sounds like contrary to what I thought I'm not missing anything. Will wait till Tuesday.

Gom its a very good game tho.

Just right now there is a large mass of people playing and alot in the same zone. Just like any openning day of am MMORPG

Just wish they got rid of God damned GameGuard.

True, but ill put with it's occasional issue if it bans the majority of hackers out there.

As much as I dislike all the hackers and botters in these games GameGuard is a huge issues right now. Many people are having problems with anti-virus programs and GG with the only answer is to uninstall your anti-virus programs.

Disabling or exiting Kas 2010 has no effect and GG gives the errors and stops you from playing.

Everything worked just fine for me with Win 7 64bit RTM and Kaspersky 2010 in the last Beta so I assume something in GG has changed.

Hopefully this is will be fix'd soon with GG.

No idea if you are taking part in the beta or not, but if you looked at the Customer Support forums... oh joy, I believe at least 50% cannot play atm, apparently cause of GameGuard, and 75% of those who got to play are lagging / crashing with GG errors.

Today starts head start, good luck for all who will be playing. My characters are created and ready to rock :)

Yeah they clearly underestimated the number of people logging in and such a low number of servers is making Q's very bad. 844/3418 for me now and I have been waiting a good 2.5 hours, the max Q was 2048 when I first logged in.

So thier answer was to make the Q's bigger so people would not get the Server cannot connect because its to full message.

The queue's are a annoying but expected...

Ill see you out there: http://na.aiononline.com/characters/Israphel/Kaitiaki

I had fun. Got my cleric to 11 before I called it a night. I hope they raise the cap on the servers.

Can you all post the server(s) you are on and your character names?

Server: Nezekan

TheSneakyOne

Server: Yustiel - main server
Chars:
Saliss - main character

Played during the open beta, the game didn't bring anything special to hook me to pay for it :( The search for a fun MMO continues.
