Aion: Recent Accomplishment Thread

[Hyan]

Only Western version or Korean too?

[Gokulo]

I'd say Western, I don't think Korean are doing so bad to need to switch to F2P and microtransactions.

[Fallyn]

what the fuck? it wont open for me, what is it?

[Alderaan]

Not surprised since i've been saying forever that Aion was built perfectly for a FTP cash shop model.

I honestly don't think it's worth $15 a month.

[Veyron]

Got Lakhane's finally, accessories will be complete when I get my last earring. Then to finish +10ing armor...and every time I try to +15 my Spear I go down to 9, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Seems Aion will become F2P along with both Lineages?

Is it actually mentioned in there? I can't be bothered to sit through it all to find out.

[arus2001]

Whatever video or something that was supposed to be didn't even work for me. Admittedly, though, I am curious about the game going F2P.

[Gokulo]

It's an audio from their financial conference. I was able to run it in WMP, it buffered and worked fine. Didn't bother to listen really, just what my friend posted from it was:

the NCSoft 2010Q2 financial report - conference call.

- Lineage, Lineage2 and Aion goes to microtransaction system. The reason is: call back the inactive players base.
- After the 2.0 start in oversea (EU,USA): The NCSoft will provide new operation team/knowhow, customer support, powerwiki/etc., and 'customer convininence' on same level like in Korea.

Dunno if that's even legit, didn't see any other confirmation about that.

[arus2001]

If all of that can mean a legitimate Westernization (Improved drop rates, reduced death penalties, meaningful reduction on kinah costs and craft good requirements, etc.) on top of the F2P, then the game will certainly regain some appeal for me. I can somewhat tolerate class imbalances or even randomly getting ganked if it didn't feel like I spent X hours working on something, just to NQ some garbage or lose money due to a sudden market shift because some twat thought farming something themselves makes it cheaper to synth.
