This game has major problems, I know several people who have computers that the game just won't run on.  The stupid gameguard has big issues with some virus protection programs.    I hear a big thud coming.

While this is great news, but i can't help but wonder why they haven't fixed small stuff like text overlapping each other or too long that it goes out of the text box etc. I understand those are minor things but still. Also, are we going to test 1.5 before the game launches?

What makes you think they are not fixing that and other issues right now? They simply made the base install discs, when people install it, I bet you there will be a patch waiting for them. :)

Asmodian 4TW all i have to say ! ! !

it does have issues with some PC 's cuzz their  TRASH and out of date RAM sux or GPU  sux or  OS is TRASH don't Go Blaming GameGuard... also as for  Virus protection programs messing up the game play.... you most likly have NORTON installed WHAT Trash  NORTON should be used as a COFFEE coster for my STARBUCK's cafe' mocha !

I agree and if that's the only problem then that is some thing the gamer had to deal with not NCsoft. I have play many beta before and this is the smoothies I've ever seen.  When I stopped playing WOW there were still bugs that were known just like in every game.  The bug wars never end.

Exploits are what is "Good Games" Down falls... Power XPing... Cheating & hacking Destroys games of this Caliber {AION} is a MMO all in a New Class of next Gen new gaming... the flow of {AION's} game play and the UI friendliness is a Plus in my book, as for PvP it's far beyond any MMO i ever played and I have played quite a few in my day. Some people call {"AION"} a grinder or a Quest fest you can't be farther from the truth, if you see and read the Campaigns, and read the Lore of the Game you will be pulled into the world of {"AION"}!  Crafting... and the skill chain... are graphicly the most awsome things I have seen as of late in MMO's !

Yes, AION is balls of Brass saying they will be #2 in MMO's...

i welcome them to try and will be a devoted client if they do what they say!

Aion: The Tower of Eternity has officially gone gold, according to an announcement made by NCsoft today. For those who don't know, a game going gold means it is ready to have the game discs duplicated and shipped to retailers. Basically, it's "done".

 

No offense to the OP. But what's your source on this? I haven't seen anything official on the NCSoft or Aiononline website about it going Gold. I'll believe it when I see it officially.

They already announced the games release (Sept 22) so the would have to be done pretty soon.

Lag has to do with your computer and your connection, the game itself only plays a small part in it.

I'm ready to play the game but through the beta this past weekend I experienced horrible lag like issues and if it goes live with that problem they can count me out.

With an MMORPG, I am of the opinion that if you can't play it, at least for a limited time, for free, then it isn't worth investing in.

 

A single player game I can feasibly take back to my local games store and either get credit on another game or my money back, depending on the store.  With online games that is not an option, once you blown the money, its gone, regardless of how you feel about the game itself.

 

Not to mention the fact that there are and have been 100s of MMO's that have been utterly rubbish and a complete waste of money.

 

Aion has played its Beta like a prize for us to win.....we win nothing from Aion, Aion wins from us, the customer base.  So when they open up their Beta and let everyone in, then I will have a look and judge the game, however, their behaviour in the way they have played the closed Beta to garner sales, rather then as a means to improving and fixing the game, has left me wondering whether this is a company I ever want to get involved with.

MMORPGs take a commitment to playing, it takes time to play an MMORPG and do you really want to spend a lot of time in a game with a company that cares so much more about the bottom line then it does customers, fans and whether the game is any good?  Aren't you just setting yourself up for a fall?

Dude, its only 50 bucks. And you CAN get your money back for the game box which comes with a free 30 days. Plus if NCSoft only cared about the money then they would be advertising this game. So far the only place i've seen this game advertised is Gamestop and Myspace.com. Also they wouldn't take our suggestions and fix things in the game to the way we thought would be better, which they did in the CBTs. But of course, your own opinion is your own opinion and im not here to change that. Just thought i'd prove a few points. =)

ME 3 !!!

perhaps i should of said out of date mother boards and CPUs   i do not have hate towards the problems people state its just that this game is to me High end and  though does not need  tons of RAM but at least give the Game it's just deserts i.e . RAM a Good CPU speed and a GPUs that does AION justice as well as a good ISP....

~@~

no hater-aid here, just what i like to play MMO's with... i build my own PC's I go for the best ...  i try my best im a graphic freak.. that is why i love AION so much ! ~@~

Well sticking a piece of trash like gameguard on this game shows that NCSoft is blessed with idiots too.  It does not work well with many programs, some virus protection software being numero uno.

So that is a big minus for this game and it has nothing to do with the cpu or graphics card, it is the software.  I already told the manager at the local Best Buy to expect games to be returned.  The asian proclivity for these stupid protection programs is going to bite them in the butt.

You have to love the clueless that attempt to defend bad decisions by developers.

perhaps your correct to an extent for "Rohan" had game guard an was buggy for the 1st 2 weeks about loging in and sometimes having to fully reinstall to play BUT the issue was resolved in 2 weeks...

Please dont blame the GAME GAURD for their PC 's not being able to run AION etc, blame their comps make-up  blame their PC... for being less than up to PAR! to play high end games.... have them go back to Diablo 2x were they can play !

Not trying to be mean or Negative, but if you want to run with the big boys get a comp and OS that plays {nice} with  AION  & with Game Guard  :(

as for bugs and problems every game has them, they will be fixed over time as in every game...
