This open beta is nothing more than a display of NCSoft's incompetence.

These kinds of results in an "open beta" (bs marketing term for free preview when it's this close to live) that is not even truly open is utterly ridiculous. I'm canceling my pre-order.

Enjoy the inevitable mass-exodus cancellation woosh within the first month or two, a la AOC and Warhammer.

Quite sad. I pity those of you that have experienced other hyped-up marketing masterpieces such as AOC and Warhammer and still have the blindness to give another company another undeserved $60.

Good luck. I can think of a hundred better things to do with my money than give it to these modern-era art counterfeiters, because that's all they are, is a bunch of people taking rehashed unoriginal non-innovative crap, branding it as their own, and then not even having the decency to make an effort to assure that it all runs smoothly. All while asking us for money.

No thanks.

 Care to elaborate to those of us that don't/won't ever play Aion what the problem is? 

Not having a dig, I actually want to know what's going wrong.

[deleted for not being able to tell the difference between NCSoft and Funcom]

Don't let the door hit you on your way out...

(If you go on a rant about how things are bad at least have the decency to elaborate: what's so bad and why...)

Holy crap!

You're an angry dude.

Care to elaborate a bit as to why you hate Aion so much.

People will just report you for trolling if you don't explain yourself.

I have been playing on Chinese server for 3 months, the game seem fine to me.  Not sure what's your complaints.

Bye, I played AoC for 9 months had a lot of fun sorry you didn't =( Yg.com had me rated the second best ranger in the world before I quit. Not sure as you didn't specify what happend that made you cancel your pre-order or w/e but that sucks, it happens, yup theres lag rut roh. WoW was unplayable at launch due to the #'s logging in ... Aions the same atm.

Aion is having some server issues...

God forbid the servers arent perfect for an open beta that you should be happy to get a chance to play in.

Did you ever try the WoW open beta? It was much much worse. Hell I remember after WoW released soem servers were down for a full week while we were paying for the game. Some servers in WoW still crash constantly. Remember the release of Ulduar when nobody could zone in even?

These problems are not unique to Aion. Dont even sit there and try to say things like that.

Game guard and programs like that DO cause issues sometimes when they get updated. The game guard Aion uses was updated right before beta, and they need to fix the issues with it. I know they are working on a fix, and that is really all they can do.

Maybe if you are such an amazing person you can snap your fingers and fix the network problem...

Well, if you are expecting something radically new you might be dissapointed.

Personally though, i've been playing since the beginning of the beta (pre-order) and am enjoying it alot.

I think he refers to the fact that it went up 38 mins late,or possibly the rubberbanding issues from having 50K + players all try to login at once,or it could be the 10 min server downtime to address server stability,or maybe he is complaining about the network servers "which NC does not own" that are imploding from massive congestion on route to the NC servers.

People make me laugh,OB was for 1.5 implementation if you thought for a min that it was going to be some smooth playing happy fun time,I feel sorry for ya.

I also remember WOW wasn't released for almost a year before their open beta. Pull your head out of your ass. There is no way that this game (for almost a year in operation) should be stumbling out of the gate 2 weeks before release. This is a major punch in the gut for NCsoft. I just logged out of Aion, and it is currently unplayable. Total lagfest.  NCsoft is acting like they have never opened a MMO server before. And for this game to be operating this long, in this kind of shape is unexcuseable.

You can apologize for NCsoft all you want, but the fact is, NCsoft really SHAT the bed on this one.

Don't sugar coat it, man.  Tell us what you really think!  Also, I note that your avatar is a FailCom logo; and, here you bash NCSoft.  Are there any developers that you do like?

1) Your acting like half of the ignorant kids in region chat. You obviously don't understand OB is not a marketing term. It is a TEST ON THE SERVERS. If they could implicate realtime connections from over 50k+ players at once they would do it without us. Since they cannot they use us. I would rather they pissoff people who care more about trying to beat a game than help fix the game.

2) Your pissed at a company because they don't bend to your will? Well then why the fuck do you even troll and or play MMOs. You obviously had some really big hopes, and because you couldn't be happy with a Open Beta that you think is a *Trial* your gunna rant and rave? Especially on a forum NCsoft probably cares less about. If you really want results or answers go to the beta forums or aionsource. Obviously your just pissed with your own ignorance.

3) Good riddance. The less assholes he make it post launch the better.

The issues Aion is having atm are SERVER BASED. The servers are NEW SERVERS for the Western players. They have never had a severe load on them before. THIS IS WHY COMPANIES DO OPEN BETA / STRESS TESTS. So that their servers are ready FOR LAUNCH.

Oh my god people. Are you all really that retarded? You act like you know everything about servers and that this should be flawless becuase it's an "open beta". Why don't you go post your results on the BETA FORUM so that they can fix these issues rather than you just bitching about them?

People on this forum make me want to throw things. Hard. At walls.

It was released for 8 months in CHINA. Not the networking company in america. CHINA! We don't connect to that server. And if we did you'd lag even worse. Ignorance is an option not a god given trait of humanity.

Doesn't something strike you as funny, when using the words server stability, and beta, in the same breath?

Maybe not.....

I have already determined you can't expect logic from these trolls or a majority of mmo gamers these days... but  I still try, guess i'm not a quitter. Good luck with your attempt!
