That could very well result in me returning to Aion...providing they sort out the technical issues like gold spam and server lag (if it exists anymore).
 
lets pray that it's looks with optimization and *not* just the looks like AoC.

crytek 1.5 ? or scaled down crytek 2 ?

Click to expand...

No more lag(yes the pings to us are high but there is NO LAG at all, only pc lag), and hardly any spam bots, (just made a new account last night havnt got a single shout / whisper re RMT's yet)
 
Good to hear, thanks :)

Problems one and two are therefore solved. Now to wait and see what Visions turns out as.

Any idea of when the estimated release date is?
 
Yeah I am also considering it, but only after Aion 2.0

After reading forums today for Aion it seems that little to nothing has changed, and in fact the game is suffering in many areas.
 
I'm surprised that it's still so high on the Xfire rankings, though. I was expecting it to drop to a 40-50 ranking like Warhammer Online and Age of Conan.
 
what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine what engine ?

Google your friend (not yahoo's tho)

pffft irl programming it would be hardly the same. they are obviously then using a propriety engine and "first" aion was scaled down of that and the one they are doing now is a notch up from the previous one.

i'm not one to just back into something i left just because it looks better now ;)
 
I still think they made a mistake using the Crytek engine to start with, but I don't suppose there's anything they can do about it now without restarting from the bottom up.

I don't think spam bots are completely gone, but I haven't had any shouts over the last couple of days, and having mentioned that, I haven't seen too many bots running around either - so I think they're getting a handle on the problem. I'm surprised that gold spam would induce anyone to quit though - easy enough to block as it is - so even when it was a problem, it didn't really bother me all that much.

There are rumours floating about that the level cap is going to be raised - of necessity, that should mean new content - we hope.

As for when Vision was going to be implemented, I believe it's going to be an ongoing process, and not all done at once.

One thing I really do wish they would pay attention to are holiday events - Valentine's Day was limited to a rather stupid looking balloon hat (at least, that is all I saw) and double xp, whereas Guild Wars had the whole Canthan New Year theme going (so naturally, I spent a bit of time on GW over the weekend again).
