Is this crypto tab-target shit again?
>>2872405What does that mean? It's a regular tab target MMO.
>>2872412god sake, why even make a sequel if you're just going to release the same thing again
>>2872430I wouldn't say it's really the same thing as Aion, there are a lot of differences, even in the combat, it's tab target but it's definitely not like Aion 1 tab target, much faster paced.
>>2871877every time I try to watch Kanon play this game it looks boring as fuck and why can you p2w revive if you die in a dungeon?how reliant on conscious teammates is this game? what made me quit lost ark was 600 mechanics on a single boss and requiring everybody in the party to do them flawlessly, plus waiting 3 days to get a support for your lobby. if pugging is difficult then I don't even want to bother.
>>2872723it's not p2w revive, you get those for free, afaik this system is limited in raids and dungeons aren't really meant to be that hard, I think the game is easier than lost ark in general and pugging isn't bad
I really hope it'll run on Linux. Seems people have been having trouble with their shitty launcher.
>>2873000The existing versions don't so I wouldn't get your hopes up
>played TW release>was overrun with bots within daysI don't feel good for a western release bros
>>2873100no mobile client makes botting a little more difficult, but every MMO like this gets botted to shit because it's so profitable for third worlders
>>2873105>no mobile clientI don't think that really makes any differenceI still have a sour taste in my mouth from this game, especially the crafting system, it felt dumb to craft up tiers but then lose it all on one failed craft and have to start all over again from the first tierI'll probably still play it for a few weeks, goon to my character some, and then delete it
I am pretty sure they've changed the crafting system to have guaranteed options
>>2873117>>2873113
This game can't come soon enough. I am bored as fuck with Black Desert and any MMO that was promised; Archeage, Chrono Odyssey, and Vindictus never came. It's not like AION may be good, but the situation is dire. Anything goes. We need new mmo's.
>f2p
>>2873419f2p is not viable, basically a subscription game
new trailer droppedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGZHZGvQNLE
>>2873100were you not around for Lost Ark or Throne and Liberty launches?eastern games are all heavily botted and littered with RMT.they rely on the KR social security verification to reduce botting in KR, and the KR players all accept and participate in RMT. the only ones who don't are the ones with an English audience on twitch who have to feign a performative anti-RMT opinion. which is strange because the only popular mmo, wow, all of the streamers and players acknowledge and participate in RMT.the concept of a mmo always sounds like fun to me but the player base is always the most embarrassing excuses for humans in existence. maybe I'm just nostalgic for high school when I played wow during its early years.
>>2873978>eastern games are all heavily botted and littered with RMTwestoids will say this and then go back to their shitty westoid games with the exact same problems just with ugly westoid graphics lmao
>>2873978>I played wowReally, nigga? You count that as an achievement in playing MMOs? The worst, most stale, boring game in existence, solely fueled by milking millions or retards alone. Not to mention the faggiest community I have ever had the displeasure to meet in real life at cons. Koreans and Asians actually bother to bring something new to the table. Had we let the West lead, we would still be in 2004 in graphics and gameplay.
>>2873117limited amount per season and doesn't apply to orange crafts, which could mean that you either spend a premium to buy it off the market or gamble at a 25% chance to explode it twice or a 25% chance to proc it and have another chance to explode it or win and get rich
>>2873882The only real limitation is no market board, Ironman mode sounds more fun to me anyways.
Eurobros, we need to make sure to pick the same server this time!
>>2874909yes pick na east you dumb motherfuckers
>separate us west and east serversI hope US west won't be a ghost town like it usually is.
>>2874981No, we're not playing with burgers.
>>2874994It will be lol
>>2874059>You count that as an achievement in playing MMOs?NTA but he never said anything about achievement, he just said he missed it. Rightfully so, wow up until mid-wotlk was good.So what's your achievement in playing MMOs bud?
>>2872077Also add that new servers are added at real launch so in the end majority of players will be on the 2nd wave of servers while tryhard/shills/loserstreamers will flood early access serversthe auction house is also separate between early access and real launch serversDO NOT BUY A FOUNDERS PACK!!!!you're paying to be stuck on the worse servers filled with the worse kind of people
>>2875746There's nothing stopping anyone from just late joining the EA servers, I don't think it'll make any significant difference especially since their markets will be merged and PvE is cross-server while abyss PvP matches you against similar servers.
The patch in KR today has made ping much less of a problem for DPS, so EU bros will be able to comfortably play on NA
>>2875958If you're wondering what this meanshttps://youtu.be/GrJyHCju1ko&t=120
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSTwX4orhAsLatest video from the AION Team..
is this another game where I'm going to have to watch a 5 minute video before any boss and have a cheat sheet open on my second monitor?
>>2875958Why would you want to play on NA as EU.
does anybody have a good video explaining classes?what role has the shortest queue time?are classes hard locked into builds or is there more freedom to find things like a dual wielding warrior tanking?
>>2877304Maybe. They want the black desert audience.
>>2877372If you plan to play with anons and not normalfags then EU generally isn't an option, there's always a much larger NA population than EU.
>>2877304maybe for the raids but you can rawdog dungeons, mechanics aren't difficult>>2877390classes are pretty similar so you should just pick whatever looks cool to you, the main difference being the obvious roles and whether you're ranged or meleethere aren't any queues, just party finder like lost ark, people use a lot of healer alts and there's obviously plenty of dps players so tank is probably the most desiredthe builds are pretty locked in, there's hardly any customization except which stigma skills you use except they're not remotely balanced to be competitive so you're gonna use the same as everyone else
https://docs.google.com/document/d/11u4wLCG1WfL-xSka2Aze0rI9vYRa7mq3N3Gp1bt0AWY/Some autist made this.
>>2877565sounds so fucking sterile and boring like it's just another fotm p2w pvp "mmo" from the east.
>>2877906It's more focused on PvE though, the PvP exists but it's not like the main thing you do or anything.
>>2877858An autist would have made this much more pleasant to read
>>2877858>some autist>kanon
>>2877511We literally had more people than you guys during NEO. Plus this is a ping heavy game. There's no reason to play on NA.
>>2878519I'm EU and I can think of plenty of reasons to not play on EU. I also play on TW already and the ping issue has been solved, having 100 ping on NA is going to feel buttery smooth.
Any word on if they'll bring back the mech class from the first game? That was the coolest thing about it.
>>2878588Nothing about that yet, next class is called "Slayer"
>>2873113>I'll probably still play it for a few weeks, goon to my character some, and then delete itSame.
What's the difference between the two factions?What's the difference between Chanter and Cleric?What's the difference between Sorcerer and Spiritmaster?
>>2879424Different maps, Elyos play in Verteron and Eltnen, Asmodian play in Altgard and Morheim, and you get different wings.There's rifts that allow travel to the other factions maps for a limited time every day, mostly just for map completion shit, but also PvP that hardly anybody does cause it's a flag system.Chanter and Cleric are bother healers/supports but Chanter is melee (kinda half ranged though) and Cleric is ranged.Chanter leans more into buffs and Cleric leans more into heals.Sorc and SM are just two flavors of the same thing, both ranged DPS but Sorc is more burst/cooldown oriented while SM is more sustained DPS, the summoning aspect doesn't change the gameplay at all since you don't really control them.
>>2876593>trusting these two not to fuck the game with monetizations
>>2880093that neck beard looks glued on.
>Launch plans>speedrun to level 12 and start mob grinding for picrelIYKYK
>>2880418enlighten us
Is Brawler gonna be available in the global release? How pay to win is this shit going to be?
>>2879458Hmm, I see. And then I'm guessing there's also "neutral" zones that both faction eventually meet in?I watched at video (at 2x speed) describing all the classes and I think I'm leaning towards Cleric. I really like that it has a bit of a battle priest vibe to it and uses a cool mace + shield combo instead of a lame staff. Plus instant queue times for dungeons is always nice.Here's the video if anyone cares:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qHXZ3LG96gApparently whichever class you pick first is super important and leveling alts is a pain in the ass for some reason? Don't quite fully understand why that is though. Also apparently some more changes were made to the monetization in the global version.
>>2880574god that video was fucking insufferable I had to turn it off
>>2880093They're just itching to fuck the game up with monetization. It's like a junkie trying to get drugs.
>>2880487Only image I could fine to showcase, but it's an easy transmog item to get which is just a straight up panty legging "armor" (skirt is part of the upper body on this armor set)
>waiting room for more gookslopThe only not shit Asian MMO is PSO1. EVERYTHING else is objective garbage.
>>2880093they already tried that in Korea and had to humiliate themselves on stream with an apology tour
>>2880574The only neutral zone is the abyss which is full on open PvP warfare.Leveling alts is the same as leveling a main so idk what that means, but I'd advise sticking to one character anyway unless you want to rapidly burn out, maybe wait for a boost event if you really want an alt.
>>2880565no. yes.
>>2880888we like garbage here
>>2880888everything legacy doesn't get updated, or if it does it gets patched for the modern audience.everything modern is trash.media and entertainment sucks. return to monke.
Yo, motherfuckers! Including myself. The game has changed. You can pre-download the game on the 16th of September and play the stress test on the 18th of September; all you need to do is go to Steam and ask to partake in the stress test. Good luck.
>>2881809based, signing up now
>>2881809the game will be available on purple, what are the steps to stress test on that client instead?
>>2882958just install the game on the 16th and you can play during a 6 hour window on the 17th and 18th
They really did the franchise dirty. Everything I've seen about the game so far is absolutely atrocious, as if their only goal was to piss off people who liked the first game.
So what is this? Aion but even more p2w?
>>2885136idk makes sense I guess? the audience of the first game couldn’t keep the game alive. the next logical step would be to try and find a new, bigger audience
can someone give me a guide t o have best start? and does faction mean anything?
>>2885192a handful of gook incels aren't a wider audience though since those just coom to gacha, which doesn't require a modern pc
>>2885294we all know it’s going to be dead in a matter of months anyway. but I’ll enjoy the leveling journey, craft a bunch of stuff and then call it
>>2885304i wanted to give it a try but "leveling" is just a few hours of following the quest marker all alone and the combat is horrible mobileslopthe world is also small and there's nothing to explore since the game is a daily login chore simulator
>>2885304throne and liberty is still going and Aion 2 is a much better game having played the TW version
>>2885677still going is quite a strong accusation considering a single server in wow or ffxiv has higher population than the entire game, and it has roughly the same population as lotro.
FFS, can someone confirm or deny if im able to make THIS body type (Elin+) for Aion 2? It will decide if i skip this game or buy the $100 founders pack, its an IMPORTANT question!
>>2885309The combat is fine imo, it feels good, it's fast, I think being simple is actually good since the whole mmo hotbars with 50 buttons thing is a major turn off for a lot of people, and it means they can make encounter design more interesting since you have less mental burden in terms of doing a rotation.
>>2886138That's literally a screenshot from Aion 2 so yes, they aren't changing it in our version.
>>2886138you're weird.
Newfags don't know how many good changes they already made for global that cuckreans don't have (this is already out of date btw there's a lot more)
>>2887110this doesn't entice people into playing your game.every eastern game is like this too.recent translations that flopped on release in kr before coming west>bdo>lost ark>tnland they're still bad games.
>>2886261Have you actually seen it in action? It's the most braindead mobile shit ever. Overly fast, flashy and mindless. Dungeon runs are just speedrun spamming AoEs on dummy trash packs and spamming single target on bosses while dodging the occasional bad on the ground. The PvP is just a P2W stat+first jump check.It's the worst combat I've seen in a "MMO" and the encounter design is from people who never played a MMO before. The first Aion's combat is leagues ahead of this vomit.
>>2887685I've played it nigga, it's fun.
>>2886138kys pedojeet
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhHmG-X7pR4
>>2886566>>2887821shite taste retards, i bet you are making trannies.
>File Deletedcatbox plox
>asmodian lost all their features>both elyos and asmodian look like kpop plastic dolls by default>the game is an obvious coomer, pedo and agp troon bait since the character creator is its only redeeming feature and allows for full on softcore porn, that plus coom outfitsWorst Korea is truly a hellscape.
>>2887948you can always just play wow if you want to play a generic mmo except all the characters are ugly
>>2887917no, I am playing a male because I am a male. you have a mental disorder and do not deserve to exist in the same society as me.you better pray that people like me don't get elected.
>>2888022>i play a maleso you are gay
>>2887948I'm gonna be honest bro, if you don't like "coomer" stuff then Korean MMOs are like the last genre you should ever consider touching. And they've been this way for like two decades.Vindictus is still alive to this day because Nexon are geniuses that decided to start selling gacha boxes containing outfits that are little more than a few strings covering the character's privates.TERA only survived past its first year because of Elin players buying costumes, by the developer's own admission.BDO is 10 years old and somehow still alive even though it has the worst gameplay loop of any MMO but the character models are hot, the gameplay is flashy, and the costumes are sexy. Sound familiar?If the idea of playing with these people give you the big ick then you might as well stay as far away from this game as possible. Because that's going to be 90% or more of the game's population.
Aion was shit 19 years ago and it's shit now. Why are you retards hyping this trash up?
>>2888022>plays a coomer game just to play as maleI'll never understand this. Larping as a buff male in a vidya game is so fucking retarded, even if you were fat and ugly. Just hit the gym and you can look like that irl, no need to Larp as a male, just makes you look like a faggot. For me, I like to look at tits and ass, its just more pleasant to the eyes when you are playing this game for thousands of hours vs looking at your shirtless male char all day. Seems faggoty.
>>2888177its also why BnS Live and Neo is still going. The game is filled with lolicons nowadays, and its glorious. Just like with Tera, lewd Lyns are keeping the game alive.
>>2888177anon those games are the outliers that literally innovated MMO with their own unique combatTERA could've survived till now if they didn't get shutdown from PUBG's success seeing that there are hundred of TERA private servers
>>2888214who's even hyping it? kmmos are trash and I am a raccoon
>>2888431$100 Founder's Pack was on the global top 10 sellers on Steam. The only NCSoft MMO worth supporting is Guild Wars 3, unless they decide to bring back Wildstar or Tabula Rasa for some reason.
>>2888436really?
>>2888436gw3 is a game we know literally nothing about other than it has black dudes riding highguard mounts, think I'll hold off on the support for that one for now
>>2875772not merged at launch, learn to read.Maybe months later which by then none of it matters most people will quit, but at launch EA servers will have zero interaction with launch day servers.This means>all of the tryhard losers will be on EA>all of the whale losers will be on EA>EA servers will have whales/tryhards (both also use alt accounts to bot on top of it) absolutely destroying the market and abyss
>>2877565Not true at all>>2877390early on you will get instant queues as cleric and templarduring the taiwan launch I could get into any group instantly as a cleric but if I played one of my dps classes like gladiator I had to shop around for a bit and wait for like 5-10 minutes.Cleric also can carry bad players, you can basically heal people through mechanics.
>>2888639Hate to break it to you but there's going to be whale guilds on every server, gone are the days of lone wolf whales, they stick together.
>>2880418This might be the only perk to playing on EA, on taiwan I was able to buy a ton out for cheap which let me permanently unlock it in the dressing room before people realized it was the first lewd armor you can obtain.
>>2881172It's not bad to at least make alts if you want access to quick easy cosmetic armor, every character on your server gets a randomized blackmarket shop (npc store that sells pets/cosmetic armor for gold)Just level them high enough to access a bank to take full advantage
>>2885136Blame asians, they have the absolute worse shit tier taste in video games and multiplayer mechanics and they love pay to win faggotry.>>2888648far less likely on launch servers, whales are impatient and will roll EA, founder packs including subs guaranteed that.
I don't really care about whales or whatever I'm going EA anyway, all my broke friends can just join me later, or beg me for a pack if they're desperate enough.
Can Gladiator main tank all 5 man content? Is it just a raid thing where they're designated OT bitch?
>>2888712yes it can
>>2888684After playing like every mmo I learned the worse faggots are the big spenders so I'm being patient this time.All of the gay streamers are going to be on EA also
>>2888646I really hated healing when I tried it in wow because I was just staring at health bars playing whack-a-mole and I did not even notice the environment I was in or the bosses we were fighting.I don't know what game I would enjoy healing in because that's kind of the point of healer in MMOs is to play whack-a-mole on health bars?so I guess I'll have to play a tank and hopefully it has a build that can deal damage?
>my guildies and statics from other kmmos are moving to Aion 2>dead content creators resurrected just to main Aion 2>top 10 revenue on steam on the preorders>many people already played the TW version and already know they like itdoomcels in shambles
>>2888997>the game makes their weenurs go doki doki>all of them are low value menMakes sense
>>2888997MMO players are always eager to jump on new ones when they come out, especially with how very infrequently that is these days. I imagine even a lot of WoW and FFXIV are going to give it a try just because it's shiny and new and they're tired of the monotony their main game has become after so many years of doing the same thing. 90% of them are obviously going to drop it though and go back to their old games after a couple weeks.I personally haven't tried an MMO when it was new since BDO. Kind of fell out of the genre so I skipped Lost Ark, New World, Throne & Liberty, and whatever else has came out since then. My expectations for Aoin 2 are low but I'm cautiously excited because I feel there's an 0.2% chance that maybe, just maybe, it'll turn out being halfway decent.
>>2889372This game is pretty good imo, but western players always bounce off of KR mmos, it'll probably be a BDO tier game, solid enough to have a playerbase but relatively niche in the grand scheme.
>anon thinks this tab target Throne & Liberty clone is as good as BDO
>>2889393There's absolutely nothing wrong with tab target and in fact all "action" combat MMOs except Tera are trash.
>>2889570vindictus was the mother of action MMO, then the whole genre regressed back to tab target starting with tera
>>2889570>>2889612and BDO was the great comeback at reminding everyone what the fuck does action combat mean while rejecting raidniggetry like the one found in vindictus
>1v1 combat>in a fucking mmorpgno wonder all those a akshub games flop
>>2889393tab target is the best way to create mmorpgs there's a reason BDO population is garbage while probably billions of people are spread across thousands of tab target mmo'saction combat is for low IQ mongoloids who want to play devil may cry (one button spamfeast)
>>2888997>>2885702
>>2885702BDO only has 25k? ultima online private servers have more than that lmao
>>2890264bdo has it's own client, plus it's on console. I don't know if they're on the same servers as pc.but the same can't be said for loa or tnl.bdo is a successful game.
>>2890275>>2890264>>2885702and when you compare bdo to other successful mmo's with their own clients off steam.
>>2890275>>2890282pathethic so it only has 27know compare to world of warcraft which has 10 million lol
>>2890282Anon, BDO is an idle game, at least half of those are not real players, just dudes leaving the game open auto fishing.
Sorc or Spirit Master?I want a chill class if that’s even possible in this game. Shit seems hella spammy
>>2891237SM is chill, most of the classes are chill actually, it just looks spammy but you're really only holding one button most of the time.
>>2891240because of macros right? briefly looked into it. SM seems cooler than Sorc. Like me some elemental bros
am i fucked as an aussie, as always, or will it be bearable to play in jp server?
>>2891424you'll be ok in JP server, will be pretty shit in NA or EU
>>2891424>fellow ausfagYes. We are always fucked.I read the JP server is also going to be located in S.Korea as well to make things worse, but I can't locate where I read that anymore so could be fake newsI think they at least improved the animations and skill queueing so it should feel better to play on a higher ping than it did in TW launch
>>2888464I'm just speaking from a consumer standpoint, ArenaNet has been exempt from (((NCSoft)))'s bullshit. Highly doubt they're gonna start interfering during GW3.
I made a thing because I'm bored at work and indecisive about customizationsI didn't plan to be a heal slut, but the wheel has spoken>https://wheelofnames.com/zeh-n63
>>2890978This is true, I'm an active player and all you have to do is log in and check towns, the ocean, gather spots and grind spots on multiple servers to see that there are only ever maybe a few hundred people actively playing at any given time of the day, the most populated grind spots being the ones closer to endgame. Early and mid game spots are extremely dead. The number goes up during node war or siege but the vast majority of those players return to afk activities or log out from the game when it's over. For some reason pointing this out gets bdo players mad even though they can easily see for themselves by checking in game.
>>2892156now explain why are there 100 players on a random field boss of each channel out of 30
even bdo will be a ghost town when the new goon simulator drops
>>2892187Yes, a few hundred people actively playing at any given time of the day. That's what I said.
>>2892121kys pedocoomjeet
>>2892121Amazonian TemplarI'm kind of okay with that, but I'm still doing large breasts because what's the point otherwise
>>2892377You're ruled by pedos, get used to it chuddie.
>>2888997Imagine this outfit, but on a loli. wait, i dont have to imagine it! this game will be amazing :3
>>2892889Is there a list of all cash shop outfits somewhere? I've seen a screenshot of someone with a micro-bikini, and suddenly being stuck on the JP server doesn't sound so bad now.
>>2892987Haven't seen a comprehensive list that isn't outdated by almost a year, but you can preview everything in the game if you install TW version.
>>2892987>>2892996nvmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nvCQimOJEs
>>2893017This guys character is the perfect visual of "bigger isn't always better"A moderate to large best would improve almost all of these outfits than what I assume is just maxing out the breast slider.Causing abnormal texture stretching, weird positioning, and unnatural gravity to them
>>2892996>>2893017Based. Thanks a bunch
>>2893081Yeah, the sliders are pretty extreme in this game, you can make some absurd characters, the size diff between min and max is insane too.
Anyone else planning to go F2P?
>>2893356No sounds awful not being able to use the market
How shameless do you have to be to have your character wear this
>>2893356I'm probably going to at least sub and maybe buy 1 outfit from the shop if anything I like shows up.Depends if they put something up before november, otherwise just staying F2P and then leaving the moment GTA VI releases in november, not worth spending on a game that will obviously die in like 6 months and I rather swipe for cosmetics in GTA VI online whenever they launches.
>>2893365Korean MMO players are a little lacking in the shame department
>>2893356I'll play it for a while and decide after. I've fallen for the early access scam too many times.If a few days into the game I'm still having fun and the membership or whatever to use the market is reasonably priced ($10? $15?) then I'll probably buy it because that's just pocket change anyway. If in less than a week I'm already growing bored then I just saved myself an extra lunch.>>2893365Dressing like this is like 50% of the appeal of Korean MMOs. As someone who's been playing them for nearly two decades it's still so bizarre to me to see the sissification of the western world and people going "Ewww, these characters are so sexualized!" No one said shit like this back during Tera's heyday. Like why are you even here? It's what the intended audience for these games wants.
>>2893496>It's what the intended audience for these games wantsOlder gook MMOs (the good ones) maybe had a plate bikini here and there but overall they were just normal games.These AGP pedo coomer simulators are rather contemporary and their intended audience aren't even actual gamers but deranged masturbators.Even the first Aion (originally) has nothing to do with this garbage.They've figured out it's easier to swindle incels out of their money with low effort pump and dumps. Making a good game is too much effort apparently.
>>2893496>" it's still so bizarre to me to see the sissification of the western world and people going "Ewww, these characters are so sexualized!" No one said shit like this back during Tera's heyday. Like why are you even here? It's what the intended audience for these games wants."The issue is you're taking random retard comments off of youtube/twitter/tiktok at face value, there's a lot of hyper perverts who for some reason has to pretend they're prudish puritans during the very few hours they're not gooning.In reality 90% of people don't care because all media is hyper sexualized just now with the way the internet is the loud minority of weirdos and the mentally ill all have platforms/soapboxes to yell on and ragebaiting losers will screencap their posts to rile up the rest of the population.
>>2893365Yet you found it and saved it on your computer, fuck off LVM pervert weirdo tranny loser.>>2893812Outside of the cash shop the overall games armor for players is 90% normal looking armor, but keep acting like a disingenuous faggot tranny that you are.End-game is primarily heavily armored and dragon theme
>>2893812I wanna say I didn't really start noticing total coom outfits and biological men going really hard on dolling up their female characters until maybe like vindictus and tera.
>Only one month left to decide if I want my character names to be Deltarune references or Dungeon Meshi referencesNot even forever is not long enough to decide.
>>2887917>>2892889People keep saying this, but how loli can you actually lolify a char in this game? Can anyone show the potential? Fuck the anti loli mongs, im sure there are some loli bros that can fulfill my humble and simple request?
>>2893362Is the market really that essential?
>>2894759Have you played a MMO before? the market place, aka Auction House, are always the most important feature of a MMO. ESPECIALLY Korean MMOs. Its actually how people make money, and how a f2p can make money. Newer games realized this so they scummily lock it behind a sub.
>>2894294and that time period just so happens to overlap the rise of the troonsreally makes you think
>>2894858It's funny cause there was always a problem with dudes pretending to be girls on MMOs and I don't really know how I didn't see it coming. Guess I'm just retarded lol
>>2894783First Aion was like this too. But that didn't keep the bots out.
>>2894289anyone who plays a korean mmo is low value, off your high horse
>>2894289>Yet you found it and saved it on your computerThe fuck are you on about, it's from the video posted above idiotSo many triggered retards, clearly feeling called out>>2893812This anon gets it, it's a fantasy game, plate bikini armor, sure, revealing dress robes, sure. It all at least fits into the theme of a fantasy game about factions at war. It can be sexualised and still attempt to be thematically relevant. But instead people would rather run around in a sukumizu. Streetwear, regular clothing, bear suits, it's all dumb, this isn't Second Life.
>>2872092What's the difference between the factions?
>>2896318It used to be a Light vs Dark, Asmodians used to have hair manes, tails, and hornsBut Elyos were so dominate in player count in Aion 1 because everyone wanted to be the pretty race that it was a pubstomp every pvp match.So now Asmodians are cucked and just look the same as Elyos in Aion 2 to try and get a more even distributionGameplay wise, they have different levelling zones
>>2872092I shouldn't be surprised that the big sword class is the most popular
>>2896415Thanks, I wonder if there will be a big split still in the second game. Will check out the starting zones.
Does anyone still actively play TW?Did they remove that bs % chance when converting a piece of equipment into a transmog? That shit was gay as fuck.
>>2896581No, I think, the lower tiers are guaranteed but not the higher ones?The main way is to just fuse all your lower tier shit into higher tier ones.
>>2893356yes. game will be dogshit. I never swipe for cosmetics either.
>>2896415I miss Aion 1 so bad I wish they'd do a proper remake
>>2893496>referencing a game that was shut downgreat argument.
>>2894759I think this is the kind of game where 90% of the stuff you find isn't worth picking up, 6% is entry level gear but it won't be for your class so you should try to trade it, 3% will be entry level gear for your class, and 1% will be gg gear that you'll realistically only get from trading on the auction house.
>>2896674you need everything, there's a collection closet that gives stat boosts if you burn stuff to etch them into thereit's similar to throne and liberty's lithograph book but instead of item reward you get direct statsthere's also a high rate of failure so you'll want multiple copies
>>2896806lmfao.
>>2894735The height sliders let you shrink your character down to a really tiny size. You can't really go 100% flat though, at 0 chest slider the boob cleavage texture still remains, plus the long supermodel legs. And I'll be honest, it's really easy to get filtered by the CC, especially more so for loli characters (all the presets are older looking characters) So you gotta know your shit like proportions and stuff. A lot of characters I've seen running around in TW are like 80% leg for example.
>>2897414what if I wanted 100% leg
>>2894735https://aion2.plaync.com/ko-kr/styleshop/popular?viewType=detail&view=6a60410d38eb0528f90019d7koreans usually give their characters tits even if loli but you can dig through here to see what's possible
>>2897460>Click the rabbit rain-coat>it's all stuff like pic relatedI see.
>>2897460God damn anon...
>>2897543would
>>2897543holy shit
>>2897460careful, this would probably give westoids a heart attack
>>2897460I shall call forth the feminists, the tumblers, the fags and trans, and the woke community in general to riot and bitch and moan about the underage characters in AION till there is nothing left. As Tera was shut down, so will AION2.
>>2897460>>2897512Th-That dont look like all legs to me
>>2897414>You can't really go 100% flat thoughI mean, this looks pretty close tho
im going to make a ARMY of fat butt lolies with fat thighs in string bikinis to scare off the normal fags.
>>2899185Try this shit, and I'll send this to the news for scandal purposes. It worked for Mass Effect; it can work for Aion 2. If the p2w narrative didn't work to demolish the game, then we will accuse the game of being pedo oriented.
>>2899255>It worked for Mass Effectthats because it was a wester slop game> it can work for Aion 2not a single asian devloper cares about the anti pedo woke BS the west is trying to throw on them. Lyns are keeping BnS alive and Tera 2 is on its way, and if you think Elins wont make a return in it you are delusional. Every single Korean game has a lewd loli in it. even BDO, and it has the most tame loli in terms of outfits for a Korean MMO.
>>2899064depends on the outfit, ones that cover up like that appear flat but with visible breasts your always gonna have a little bit of titty
Do you still need VPN to play TW version? I want to fuck around with character creator.
>>2900742Yes>t.still fucking around with the character creator before launch
>>2900742Yes, you can use mudfish for a cheap option.Or wait for the test in a couple weeks.
>>2900771>>2900775Yeah I might top up Mudfish then since isn't the server test only for a 6 hour window or something?
>>2900879Yeah the test is pretty short and you can easily spend more than that on character creation alone
>>2900315I dont mind itty bitties if this is the smallest it can go >>2899185
How in demand do you think Chanters are going to be?
>>2899358that is a FAT booty on that loli wtf more
>>2901216they're a healer, right? probably always
I'll probably spend an entire day in the character creator before playing. I really need to make my bimbo sex doll perfect.
Im gonna recreate my character from TW, face is from some preset so it should be easy
>>2902609Is there like a barbershop or something that lets you re-customise character appearance after character creation? Ideally I'd want to just start playing on launch to see if I like the game and then I'd spend time in the character creator afterwards
>>2902653yes, it requires a ticket which you can get through events and stuff and they just hand them out sometimes
>>2902653Yes but it uses the ingame currency that costs real money to edit. Quna I think it was called? Dunno if you can earn them ingame as I haven't played the TW version long enough to find out (was f2p as I'm waiting for global anyway) They also hand out free edit vouchers every now and then.Anyway you can access the character creator anytime and can save up to like 10 presets, so what I'd do is make edits here and there while playing, then once they hand out a free voucher I commit the changes once I'm satisfied with the look.
>>2902387I'm wondering if most people are going to want the proper heals of a cleric instead, but I like the idea of just slinging out buffs.
>>2903044they both give out buffs, its more of a playstyle preference at this point
>>2902644Perfect game to roleplay as a healslut.
>>2902644Does anyone actually wear 'armor' in this game?
>>2904898I will be, plenty of cool armor to mix and match, I'm sure most people are just gonna put on some skimpy outfit and that's fine too.
Are there armor types like cloth/leather/mail/plate for each class?Or does everyone equip the same gear and there is class armor at some point?
>>2905226It's all the same, there are distinct visual categories like this but there's no restrictions on them, so I can wear robes on my glad or plate on my ranger etc.
>>2897460>Mission Impossible>Try not to end up with a kpop star customization
>>2904898yeah, only paid skins arent "armor" and even then some of them are
>>2899358can a loli have a ass this big in Aion 2? Might play it if thats the case. BDO is shit.
>>2871877def gonna try this for the customization options i see that there is also flying that looks cool, i hope that it is as free as it soundsbtw are daeva what the player character is?the lore looks interesting but there are a lot of words in here that i do not know
I'll probably play this for a month and purchase the founder's pack (standard). Hope it's good. One thing that turns me off is the random text flashing on the screen.
>>2899358Aion 2 won just for this, literally no other game can compete in this regard
>>2908370Sadly I thought it would be obvious this game will die after like a month or two but pedo weirdos are probably going to keep it alive for awhile and eventually the game will have like no male or adult female characters and a ton of half naked midgets running around
>>2908426are you new to video games or something? No shit the coomers and lolicons will keep the game alive, ESPECIALLY a NCsoft game. Why the fuck do you think BOTH versions of BnS still exist? BnS actually outlasted Tera somehow.
>>2908743>BnS actually outlasted Tera somehow.Actually nvm, I forgot Tera still technically exist officially on console and still getting updates.
>>2908743BnS has far better gameplay than tera and it would have a far larger playerbase if NCsoft wasn't so greedy
>>2908952no it doesnt. Tera still remains to this day the best action combat game of MMOs. It Pioneered the entire action combat genre ffs, nothing else compares, ESPECIALLY from a pvp perspective. If Tera 2 releases, all they need to do is polish that combat system.
>>2908995nah BnS combat and arena > Tera by miles
>>2906343>I'll probably play this for a monthGood for you, I plan to play this for the next 10 years as i did when black desert came out in 2015.
>>2908995Bullshit, the only thing Tera had people worked for was the ELINS.
>>2909094What class do you plan to play?I love gladiator but everyone wants to pick it, I wish they still had multiple weapons like aion 1.
>>2909094>>2909098this is massive cope and blasphemy. Not a single person actually played BnS the normal way. EVERYONE used 1 button macros... and they still do. thats how i know you retards dont play it.
>>2909388I played the normal way, I really really sucked at it but I still played the normal way.Which is why Warden was perfect for me when warden released on the original version I actually got to do end game and tanked for a normie guild in raids and I still SUCKED at it but the class was basically overpowered as long as you saw in your aura thing you couldn't get stunned and you had like -80% dmg reduction
>friday for ausfagsGooning to TW character creator and getting a feel for the supposed patched improved responsiveness for high ping players
>>2909432is that out? I might patch and test it
>>2909447I assumed it was but didnt check patch notes tbf
>>2909447>>2909474After trying to find any information about it, I came up empty, so many it hasn't been implemented and I just hallucinated it
>>2909510I'm dumb, I found it>https://youtu.be/GrJyHCju1ko?t=119So worth checking out if it does actually feel better to play now
>No martial artist/monk classEhh maybe I'll wait
>>2909521yeah I literally cannot use dodge using softether but its a free vpn so the ping is like 300 and understandable
>>2909624the class feels awful to play btw, I thought the aesthetic would be like kfm from BnS but it's just so lazy and goofy I could never enjoy my character as that class, the weapons are literally giant foam fists like those hulk hand toys for kids so retarded
>>2909399if you actually played the normal way, you are retarded, greifed raids, and did the least damage on your team>no i didnt, i did the moststop lying you piece of shit, no you didnt if you didnt use macros, thats just a FACT.
>>2908952bns is a tab target game blud
>>2908995this, tera pserver getting 5000 players to this day, bns is dead in both official and pserver, bns gameplay has nothing to offer, tera is much deeper
>>2908952niggas always coping that their dead games weren't trash.why am I not surprised you're in a kslop thread with this mentality.
Lyns are hot but they dont compare to the OG.
>>2909769yes I didnt use macros and I did end-game raids
>>2888177>TERA only survived past its first year because of Elin players buying costumes, by the developer's own admission.Nice hyperbole, retard. Too bad it's not true.A year in there wasn't shit to buy.
>pedo coomers still larping as the saviors of a long dead gametera flopped because gooks are incapable of maintaning and improving anything, and even if the original release is well received, they'll find ways to run it into the groundthe whole elin pandering shift meant absolutely nothing because all actual humans have already quit and would never join againat best it zombified the game in a ghost town state for a bitaion 2 is just a conglomeration of everything that's wrong with the gook gaming industry, they're not even pretending to make a good game anymore and instead proudly pump out putrid slop for the gookcels to slurp down
>>2910387why people like you are always infesting every mmo community? if you don't like it, just do something else.
>>2909769warden's rotation is just holding right click to do damage so it checks out
is there PVP in this game? how is it, i just applied for the playtest
>>2910730there's pvp but it's an mmo so it's not good
>>2910870i have seen a few mmos do pvp well, but they are few and far between, for now i was thinking of trying TW out, this youtube video says that gear up is a good VPN for this, what do you guys thinK?
>>2910941any vpn that connects to taiwan will work, just pick one that has a free trial or use mudfish which you can pay for once and have credit for months/years
>>2910730it's classic tab target but with mobile elements>get in range of a zerg ball>immediately get stat checked by omnidirectional auto attacks>no iframe or block or parry in pvp>only passive RNG block from stat differencehttps://x.com/MIKANxOG/status/2095536402729730454
>>2911101are there butt jiggle physics too?
>>2911101I'mma coom in those fucking Asmodians' tatas like no tommorrow.
Will this likely get enough traction and playerbase to sustain vg threads?
>>2911325Probably not, it'll have an influx in the first month but really die off afterwardsI honestly have very little faith that ncsoft will do anything to combat the bots and the amount of p2w is going to be severely off putting to mostI expect an emergency dev apology stream within a week of launch
>>2911325if blue protocol can do it I know aion 2 can do it
>>2911325don't see why not, only thing that matters for vg sustainability is coomability and this game isn't lacking in that
>>2911325I think so. What >>2911336 said, because it shares the same players as pso2, tera and xiv.
>>2911325gameplay's structure is very similar to throne and liberty so that's a yes, for several months
>>2911325for a few months. it's a slop game though that will burn out fast, like tnl and loa.
>>2911387this game will last longer for this reason alone >>2911338
i played aion for like a decade and am pretty hyped for this
>>2911393I don't know why you're so adamant about pronouncing your AGP to people here. nobody cares.
>>2911436on the contrary, nobody cares about a game being slop if they can erp in it, if this upsets you then run away now because i can already tell you the aion 2 thread is going to be 0% gameplay 100% erp and drama
>>2909624>monkthere is brawler on the TW server
>>2909630what about the brawler class is not fun to play
boys, are we playing asmos or elyos on na east?
>>2911325I think it will have a /vg/ general but it will turn into something like blue protocol or pso2 generals where it's a dozen or so posters just doing cyber stuff in the thread.>>2911335Also doesn't help GTA VI will only be 1 month away after it officially launches and that game is going to siphon the audience from every game in existence.
>>2911396Honestly after playing TW aion 2 I rather have a new aion 1 classic server but it mimics the original official NA launch from like 2006 or whatever and has zero P2W, I would love that so much.that pocket of content was perfect imo
>>2911668This one decision is going to divide so many anons and god forbid we end up picking a server that locks a faction early like with what happened on TW
>>2911455you're right the popularity of the threads on /vg/ is based on their ERP. too bad that has 0 correlation with the health of the game.
>>2911668Elyos are the superior chosen race. Asmodians are just peasants and slave castes.
>>2911668Elyos have better maps and better housing. Asmodians live in the worst possible areas of the game and it's very ugly to see—garbage dumps, war thorn places and the list gets worse. Elyos are for the whales, while Asmos are for F2P players and Brazilians. Really, it's for poor motherfuckers.
>>2911668Asmos are human like, similar to Elyos, but more visually appealing due to their black feathered wings. The majority of the fashion leans towards industrial kpop aesthetics, which looks better on asmos. You choose one over the other entirely based on the maps. One is bleak and dark, while the other is very vibrant and colorful.
>>2912619>black feathered wingsthis is why i picked asmodian lol
>>2911668ASMOS IS KING!!!
post some og memes
who ready for zvz?
SM still broken?
>>2911668i tried both until level 10 and noticed that both factions get different game experiencestutorial storyin the asmodian story, you get the RE4 experience during the tutorial level. Also spoiler alert, why didnt teh player back up hergal? The priestess told her that the village was a honey pot. elyos tutorial story is independence daytownsthe asmos have a quaint village in the mountains and the locals are skeptical of visitorsthe elyos on the other hand, have a town with some neat roman like architecture built into a the sides of a valleyelyos NPCstypical heroic typesasmos NPCsanti heroesall that said, is there a lore reason that explains why asmos are always getting the short end of the stick?
>>2912936>>2912912i was told that the support classes are bad in PVPdo those guys just suck?
>>2912912>decade old forum discussion complaining that the asmodians are underrepresented
>>2912912It's because weirdo koreans for some reason come to our version like a pack of rats with tryhard premades and they always roll elyos because they're ugly as sin irl so they make a "beautiful" character to make up for itthey're already openly bragging about coming to global and that their groups have set aside "10k" to spend on this version, on the official discord
>>2911668asmo because elyos maps are eye rape tier bright and it's awful
>>2913299i really forgot the link...https://forums.mmorpg.com/discussion/315197/whatever-you-do-dont-ever-pick-asmodians
>>2913546It wasn't bad at launch but everyone quit after like 3 months because of how awful end game and upgrading was except the koreans lol
>sex doll successfully createdNo I'm not original and I am a life long lover of blue eyed blondes
>>2913582>can't even afford to swipe several grands monthly for upgradesfilthy casuals smhh
>>2913631ikrI even tolerated it longer than usual so I decided to make a rift twink, spent hours grinding my drops (extendable polearm, sword, and a legendary bow) and I even had a cope upgrade point of +8, spent my mains entire fortune of like 300 million and I literally failed back to like +2 on a COPE weapon btw not even my extendable weapon but some blue cope weapon because I just wanted to finally run around and pvp then I quit forever.
>>2909521>netcode improvementJust dropping an update. Mudfish is reporting a 120ms to the TW server but the game still feels terribly sluggish to play ie. press dodge and takes 300-500ms to happen on screen, maybe this is just Mudfish as I'm not using a gaming optimized tunnelling serviceI'm just a noob though and can't give any insight in the rate of skill usage per second etc, only that it still feels bad to playAs an Ausfag, unless the responsiveness drastically improves when removing VPN, we're fucked having to connect to JP servers
>>2913680that doesn't sound normal, i get 250 ping to tw and it felt exactly like 250 ping, and that was before that update, some of the streamers i watch report a massive improvement and it's extremely visible too like they're able to dodge way faster now
>>2913680I was going to try soon with softether but yeah I won't even bother lol
>>2913680mudfish lies about its ping, just like everything else>rate of skill usage per secondeach skill has a specific animation lock delay, your ping simply pads up this delay even more by the same value
>>2913696Can't really explain it desuIt feels worse now with mudfish + new netcode changes vs what I remember at TW launch using GearUp or whatever service at the time
>>2913753maybe try another vpn, mudfish can be really shit sometimes
>>2913753enable multi path mode or switch to exitlag
>>2913585She looks good, anon.
Can you create characters of both factions on the same account? I want to experience both zones at least once.
>>2913773yes, but all your bank, cosmetics etc are server locked and factions are different servers so you won't have that stuff
>>2913773yes but only on seperate servers and unlocks are only server wide unlocked so if you spend 500 hours unlocking all the best armor and weapon appearances on your asmodian server NONE of it carries over to your elyos server and vice versa
>>2911336BP is alive only because schizo trannies who ritual post every 10 minutes.
>>2913766>multi path modeThanks anon, this made a very noticeable differenceFeels playable now
Man, I loved the first Aion, got the collector's edition preorder with those aura rings and played the shit out of it. Retarded gooks just let the game rot though and then turned it into P2W garbage with brainrot cosmetics.Anybody remembers that Aion Vision trailer? Nothing came out of it, they just let the game die and now they're releasing this low effort goonbait which just shits on everything Aion stood for.I fucking hate ncsoft.
Few questions.1.) What's the best possible server for OCE?2.) Is there a server transfer feature? I have a few friends on NA that's playing but it may take some time before they start so I figure enjoying a couple of days or weeks on server that's not laggy since I've heard the game is ping-reliant with the existent of macros.
>>2914031JP server, you can transfer servers within region but I doubt there will be region transfer.
>have to get to level 10 to delete my characterfooey!
>>2914205what a kablooey!
>>2913353Why?Aion1 was heavily pvp focused so whaling meant you got to shit all over the poor peasants but aion2 is just pve. No one cares if you spend 10k to clear the hardest endgame pve content 2s faster than someone else.
>>2914470>aion2>just pvecope from free2pleb
>>2914488>have to flag for pvp>can only attack other flagged playersthe only one coping here is you
Is the Dawn Legion Base no longer the main hub of the game?There's only about 6 people here now, used to be packed or has the drop off just been that large
>>2914618there's a new map for each faction so probably everyone's there instead
>>2914470that limited time in the abyss is the only time their lives mean anything outside of that they're ugly and live in a very boring and messed up country
a little worried that since i registered on this computer that when global drops, there will be issues getting into that server
>>2910985>mudfishdude its literally only one cent a month that is insane why is it so cheap
>>2915701because the guy who made it is based as fuck and all the other vpn companies are scamming morons
>>2900889>>2900879this is why i am screenshotting my sliders so i can hop into gameplay as fast as possiblei dont know why i cannot just download my appearance
>>2903053is the difference in playstyle is that a chanter is more aggressive while a cleric prefers to sit in the back?
>>2915733how are the other ones scams? im not too into VPNs so i am out of the loop
>>2915808mudfish is just giga cheap while the others are charging monthly subscription way above what it should cost
is brawler going to be in global on release?
>>2916107no
>be me>see some big boobs and stop to admire>my character in the background looking at me angrily
>>2916114any word on when it may release?
>>2916107Is it even fun to play?
>>2916153no>>2916353no
>>2916353i enjoyed it, but then again i was just trying out classes until level 10 to see what i like>>2916536i seen people say brawler sucks twice now, why is it that it sucks?
>>2916353Sadly at least not at low lvls, I rolled one about a week ago on taiwan and the skills are really dumb and unfunit also plays around a "rage" bar type system and a special buff that changes your abilities, extremely unfun.Classes like this tend to be far weaker than non bar/buff based classes, for example if you got into a 1v1 with an assassin they can just unload on you right away while as a brawler you need to build your bar to do any real dmg.Now at end game with gear I could be wrong and maybe it's better, but 1-20 it SUCKS compared to gladiator and templar.
>Templar damage buffsJust wanted to report on my very low level experience from what I recall play templar on TW launchMy memory is that they were tediously slow, but man they destroy things in 1v1 questing/levelling now
>>2917018plus they get the kino body slam skill from aion 1
Is ranger fun to play? I'm a rangefag
>>2916986i think that class is meant to appeal to fighting game players (me) due to how their resources are managedmaybe we could make sure i keep the bar a bit full by farming some mobs i havent noticed it decaying when you are out of combat. unless there is something that resets the bar?is there an item that fills the bar?>>2917109seconding, i like zoning
>>2917140Probably, I imagine if I had the whatever point board filled, proper stigmas, and gear with good passives it probably becomes way more fun.Maybe it's one of those classes where having attack speed cap makes it giga kino?I can understand if maybe they balanced the class around end game and just said "eh" at early game because it's just so automated and easy, not a fan of that but I understand otherwise.
i only made it to level ten since i am just testing stuff out but:i like chanter so far, because i can have my cake and eat it too!i can sit at a distance and cast spells and if i want, i can rush in and do melee damagethe spirit master class seems cool too, i love pretending im a jojo character, and it seems powerful but i like pressing a lot of buttonsi saw other players practicing on dummies and it seemed like apm increases?
>>2917146well, ig it is time to hop on and find a brawler in the wild to observe them fighting?their big ass fist weapon would make for a good mika from uni cosplay
https://www.mmoexp.com/News/aion-2-macro-and-rotation-guide-how-to-maximize-dps-with-weaving.htmlwas looking for rotations per class, how accurate are these?
where do i get cool clothing?>>2913585>>2913680>>2902644
>>2913585Blue eyed blondes have always been the most attractive, no need to make excuses for not being contrarian.
>>2917360attraction is not objective nothing contrarian about liking what you like
>>2917270The cash shop.
Give it to me straight bros, is there any chance this isn't ruined by the usual Yellow Jew shit?
>>2880888>The only not shit Asian MMO is PSO1.One more good MMO than westoids have made.
>>2917735No
>>2917402dont play like that there have got to be a few armours that you can find in game>>2917777there is a private server if anyone is interested after ncsoft ruins aion again
>>2917270>>2917818those are cash shop stuff, if you just want actual cool shit then play the game and you'll unlock all the armor eventually
>>2917777early aion 1 was good, early lineage was good, early BnS was goodmost asian mmorpgs in the past launched as great games with decent gameplay loops, subscriptions, and zero P2W.the issue is when P2W fever consumed all of asia and turned their games into clown shows driven by greed.
>>2917860aion 1.5 was the goat
How reaction heavy is the pvp? I have the reaction time of a dead sloth.
>>2917912its more being the first to engage
>>2917912TTK is pretty fast and honestly it's pretty garbage even in aion 1 it was all about>who is willing to use the most consumables>who engages first like the other anon mentions>who lands lucky crits>who has better gear/better enchants>who wins the meta match up>who has full cooldowns up
>>2917952aion pvp was peak https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFN22CRdEmo
The world is 20 times larger than the original game and the game started developing pre-pandermic. How was that even possible? Did they opt to using AI?
>>2917994it's just a bullshit claim, it isn't 20 times larger
I asked my wife if i could whale a bit for aion 2 but she only allowed me to use $100 on it. Is it still worth playing?
>>2918048dude you beat the game give your wife a smooch [/smooch] on her cheek
>>2917821i have been watching aion 2 vids and saw that you can convert in game cash to premium currency
>>2918085poorfags, we are SO back
>>2918085yeah, but all the fits are sold for real money and not quna, i guess it's possible that they'll change this for global but probably not
>>2918085yes, that's how the bots survive, by botting up millions of game currency, then purchase a pass, then RMT everything immediately
>>2918161you have to subscribe to use that feature though
>>2918085Do I need to do raid stuff to get in game cash (kinah) or can I just farm them in overworld? I like being alone and chill farm.
>>2918179why play an mmo then?
>>2918179its a dungeon grinding game, but i guess you can try to farm in abyss that's the only way you can get unlimited kinah
>>2918160In TW, some outfits can be bought with Quna but it's mostly the non-immersion breaking ones. The immersion-breaking/event/mega gooner outfits are the ones you pay with real money
>>2918366why do koreans all look like they have downs?
>got my rainy forest greavesThe new macro feature is kind of broken, seeing gladiators teleporting across the map insta killing mobs seems insaneEven as a templar having the leash on macro with auto target selection, that resets cooldown on kill, can just walk through farming areas holding it down, pretty op
>>2918472Also kind of dumb to give a camera mode but then have so much limitation on itCan't set any blur, can't control head facing direction, can't offset the camera from being locked on on character
>>2918480that's asking too much for a mobile game dude
>>2918480the camera mode seems pretty pointless all it really does is turn off the uigame looks great though maybe they improve it at some point
>>2918271why leave your house instead of doing everything from home?
>>2918480Yeah and I notice the player character also has some kind of 'glamour' lighting that's on at all times. Sure it's great for selfies but for group screenshots everyone else is going to look pretty dull lol
>>2917994In a couple years in the 90s Bethesda made Daggerfall, a game larger than the entire solar system.
>>2917993lolI remember at launch our server had a big time RMT buyer and he was so geared we either needed a SM to take him down or at least 10 people
>>2918366Why do gooks always insert their dogshit fashion and ghastly plastic surgery looks into fantasy games? Do they not understand simple concepts like setting-accurate cosmetics and immersion? All gook games are choke full of the most retarded, out of place cosmetics.
>>2919534cause it sells? they tried not doing it and they didn't make as much money so now we get this in every game
>>2919534>waahhhh why isn't this as ugly as my westslopIt isn't for you, cucked faggot.
>>2919534>choke full
Actually I think I will allow myself to be excited for this. I don't care if it's p2w, if I get to create my perfect waifu and play her for thousands of hours I'm in.
>>2919833What if you create your perfect waifu and she gets violated by a sleazy asmodian (me)?
>>2919835how do you know his waifu isn't an asmodian herself?
>>2919847how would that change her getting violated?
>still not accepted into the playtest
>>2919853Violating your own race is immoral.
>>2919858>TW is practically free with only a couple bucks on Mudish vpn that will benefit you for yearsWhy bother with the play test
>>2919833some people are saying that the p2w claims are overblown
>>2919853how about my waifu violates yours first?
>>2919864you can get a headstart with the playtest>>2919858how would i know if i was accepted or not?
>>2919906Is what way is it a headstart if its all wiped
>>2919864softether is free
>early access is an entirely different server only for the paypigskind of retarded but i guess that saves me 25 bucks
>>2919897You can turn $$ for unbound kinah and speed up the gearing process but thats about it.
>>2919969EA servers become available to everyone on release
>>2919938it gets wiped? one of the youtubers said it was a headstart and that you should get to level cap
>>2920119You're probably confusing it with the 5 day head start that people who buy the founder packs getThe play test is just a 6 hour window to stress test the servers that will get wiped
>>2920159the devs said that it gets wiped? that is gay...also i swear that the vidoe was for f2p players
>>2919969yeah EA servers are going to be filled with the biggest losers (streamers), avoid at all cost
>>2920191They're also going to be by far the most populated serversand that's a good thingEnjoy your dead server when the player drop off hits
>>2920202keep assuming, little disingenuous faggot.Also when the game dies on every server who cars GTA VI will be out by then.
>>2918472>gladiators teleporting across the map insta killing mobsBelieve it or not, this is legal and not considered hackingGame is going to suffer so badly in the west
>>2920281I thought they were removing the macro system?
>>2920287I've not seen anything to indicate as such, and since implementing in KR/TW it's only been developed further and improved upon
>>2920281can other classes teleport?this is actually hella cool, my only issue with gladiator is that the sword is too small
>>2920281lol that looks so silly
>>2918472>gladiators teleporting across the map insta killing mobsI main Kullervo in Warframe, this is my shit
>>2920462you sound mad that you dont have instant transmission
>>2918472>gladiators teleporting across the map insta killing mobs seems insanewhy cant the dedicated burst damage classes do the same
>>2920462One of the skill point passive buffs to their charge skill is it auto resets after killing a monsterIt feels more fair and balanced when you used it pre macros, they also kind of need it because every other class can insta kill enemies from range, you'll notice how bad gladiator is in the PVE mini game where you have to kill mobs, rangers basically just instantly delete everything before they even render on your screen so melee just stand around and get zero points
>>2920281yo imagine the skill needed to aim perfectly on each mob while zipping around like this
mobile goon simulator btw so don't complain about the dogshit gameplay
>>2920281It's going to be so much fun seeing hundreds of bots all trying to do this at once.
>>2920514Fine with me I'm literally only playing it to goon and then killing some mobs while my dick is on cooldown before gooning some more
>>2920514>goonJust say Male Gaze, it's not like we don't know what you are.
>>2920516bots are going to be so bad on global lolat least taiwan had a nice little grace period at launch before they were fully developed and spread around (for like a week, barely)
>>2920281do you get anything from grinding open world like this?
>>2920529That's some potent cope. Actual men aren't AGP coomers and they play games for the gameplay. Maybe one day you'll stop being an incel but it's unlikely.
>>2920538Puritanism is the original incel cope you dumb cuck.
>>2920537you turn every mob in the game into a mount and pet, as you continue killing them you collect like soul orbs or whatever the real names called to continue unlocking higher pet lvls which give passive statsits the biggest reason tons of asian bugs started running bots, you also make a tiny bit of dosh on top of it and get random drops.
>>2920547this game sounds gay and retarded.
>>2919969>>early access is an entirely different server only for the paypigsWait what? They don't merge with 'official' servers on release?
>>2920545There isn't any notable difference between you and a troon. Both have utterly failed at being men.
>>2920547oh shit you can turn whatever you want into a pet and mount? that's cool
>>2920559i do not know why you guys are listening to him, obviously, they are using the same servers for everyone but if you paid, you can get on them earlier
>>2920567Holy shit dude, this is some severe mental illness. Get help.
>>2920568yeah it's actually pretty cool and every monster has a unique mount animationreally surprised they took the time and implemented it since flying is always better 90% of the time
>>2920514The graphics isn't dogshit unlike the mobile gachas from China. It's UE5.
>>2920582actually looking forward to farming nice looking mobs now
>>2920605early on you can probably make a ton of money selling stuff like leather, at least during TW launch leather had horrid drop rates and you need a massive fuckton for armor crafting, this was also before they made the shop sub only so I ended up making a ton of kinah just selling leather after I found a decent spot to grind it.I hate how early on it felt like a real mmo and after they nerfed like 30 different farming avenues due to bots it felt far more mobile and soulless F2P asian slopYou don't even get exp and drops from mobs in solo instance dungeons anymore, they almost feel like a waste of time now but you get feathers/points or whatever for clearing them but they really do feel super shitty to explore now.
>>2920614well shit, that's a bummer. any clue if those changes coming in for global too?
had a dream where my character fed me her spit only difference is that she was a black woman
>>2920577fr it really is not that deep that people like seeing attractive people in their media
>>2920762why isnt your ingame character black if that is what you like?
>I-I just like looking at attractive characters!>proceeds to make some deformed gook hooker in a g-string to self-insert as and imagine getting rapedDamn, the psyche of the AGP troon larvas is truly fascinating.
>>2920843This is what projection looks like in a nutshell.
>>2920843You are broken, normal men don't go into a panic about troons when they see attractive female characters in a video game.
may i see those attractive female characters by the way? so far the best effort looks like picrelsurely the tw players have have something to share
>>2920867 typed by brown hands
>>2920877It's a game for browns after all.
>>2920281nah, this is exactly what MMOs need. retard westerners dont want to admit it, but when it comes to grinding we want to turn off brain and press 1 button. With a macro, we can just completely automate it entirely and watch a movie or something while grinding.
>>2920826i dont know how to do make up for black girls
>>2920881then why are all the servers in yellow countries
>be at work>get a ticket>its to debug something for testing the deployment of aion 2didn't even know this game was coming out and now I feel like I should play it
>>2918785I fucking hate this, many games do it now and it makes every other character look shitty compared to yours
>>2920281I don't see the problem, a game finally allows melee to farm like ranged can and you think people aren't going to like that?Westerners are more casual than gooks, they're going to glaze the fuck out of this system.
>>2920987It's cheap, it's brain dead and it ruins the integrity of the game. It's barely any different from teleport hacks. And to say it allows melee to farm like ranged is retarded, if that's how ranged can farm, then that is a problem too, the answer shouldn't be to give melee hacks.Sometimes what the player thinks they want is not healthy for the game long term.
>>2921177>Sometimesmost times
Explain how this game isn't just going to be a repeat of slop like LA or Throne and Liberty?>Fun for about month>People get settled into the gameplay loop and quit when they realize it's a trash experience unless you're paypigging constantly
>>2921177its just farming open world mobs, it makes no impact on the game at all
>>2921236TnL at least somewhat resembled a MMO, had better combat and actual PvP (as dogshit as it was). Aion is just something for coomers to boot now and then.
>>2920917you work at ncsoft?
>>2921346
Stop getting your panties in a bunch over the game being dogshit. Ncsoft was somehow completely transparent about everything and went all out on showcasing the principal aspects of the game which are the goonable character creator and Korean brainrot cosmetics.They never pretended to make a decent game in the first place.
>>2921177It's only possible for low levelled mobs you can oneshot to trigger reset cooldown innit?
I tried the Korean Beta some year ago or so and the combat felt quite shitty, does it feel better now?
>>2921525as with all gook games they just make it gradually faster, flashier and even more braindead
>>2921439ya rly, bots are doing this shit all day with or without a macro, and they're not using fucking melee classes to do it
>just farming open world mobs, it makes no impact on the game at all>bots are doing this shit all dayWell which is it, does it have no impact or does it have value
>>2921592it has basically 0 value to a real player, bots can farm 24/7 on thousands of accounts to extract what minimal value is there, or do you think actual players are gonna farm open world all day for pennies?
>>2921592(you) doing this have no impactbots doing this in great numbers perpetually have impact big enough to generate RMT value
I made my character too short, now I can't see well with the camera...
>>2921603Being a pedo isn't so cool anymore, huh?
reddit is already having a meltdown over the pedo boogyman lol
>>2921620Nah, I still would
dps bros ww@
>>2921683aion 2 version is just everyone being the same
>>2921683this is your dps bros, see what is he doing? >>2920281
>>2921688that's a tank, chanter has the same skill too
>fucking around with gladiator and making character customizations I normally wouldn't
>>2921694>bonus office attire
Are raids gated by entry per day/week or someshit?
>>2921731weekly yes
some time ago i've heard that central market is locked behind monthly subscription, is it true?
>>2921744is true
>>2921747kek, are they retarded? at this point you are basically playing single player game as a f2p
>>2921777You just have to treat it as a subscription game, but has a very generous f2p option to trial it outNever mind the egregious cash shop attached in addition to pay for power
>all this complaining about skinsWhy? d4 is being propped up entirely by slutmogs despite the game being abysmal dogshit and it works for them
>>2921503calm down shit eater
>>2921695Yowza
>>2921695
how come all these eastern games are scared of making interesting classes?
>turd worlders get really angry and project by calling you brown when you bring up the fact that the game is irredeemable garbagethey really do think with their small peepees
>>2922084the classes were interesting in aion 1 but for 2 they got really lazy gave them far worse stigma skills, far worse chain skills, and they no longer have multiple weapon choices (like 2h sword, 2h polearm, 1h sword + shield, bows etc)You use to be able to run a dual wield gladiator, or have a side arm bow for chasing people or shooting while cc'd in pvp
>>2922084Aion 1 had a cool mech class but I guess that would scare normies away.
>>2921544why do you think they have the bots do this?
>>2922084Modern combat has to be simplistic "action" mobileslop where everything is mostly the same (with minor cosmetic differences), the number of skills is comically low and there's zero complexity. MMOs died because of phones.
>>2922114maybe they are saving this for a future update?>>2921793d4 = diablo 4?
>>2921603being a midget/manlet is a tactical advantage in pvp, even with a lock on feature, it takes a few seconds more to target you however, in games like this, a man's reaction time is increased due to all the half naked beauties running around the extra blood pumping acts as a natural g-fuel thus allowing you to best your opponent
>>2922209>d4 = diablo 4?yes
>>2922217all your blood is being drained to power a certain part of your body and its not your brain...
>>2922229Doesn't matter, it's increasing testosterone which is a natural performance enhancing drug.
>>2922234Gooning actually decreases it.
>>2922247No it doesn't, stop trusting people who want to control you sexually.
>>2922217I hated how aion 1 turned into midget world online when everyone was a meta slave thirdworld spanish retardI still remember trying out a server called Aion America, because every server is EU so I was like "oh fug a serve where my ping will be normal" I hop on and 90% of the community speaks spanish in global chat lol
>>2922250what does gooning have to do with sexuality you absolute retardyou have sex with women, not gook cartoons
>>2922269None of you prude cucks are having sex, it's all an incel cope.
>>2922290>projecting again
>>2922294>no uYou know I'm right.
>>2922269https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zd8vzIRQLLM
>having sex with women is gay>cooming to virtual korean bimbos is the true alpha chad behavior
settle down gamers
>>2922328You never have had and never will have sex with a woman, who do you think you're fooling?
>>2922229that other anon is not me, and i will say that, blood circulates it does not pool, so if more blood is pumping to a certain area, your heart rate increases thus increasing circulation of blood allowing for more energy to be expended by whatever muscles are being utilizedthis is the basis of PWOPWO is a concoction of -vasodilator amino acids which expand your blood vessels allowing for more blood to pump thru-caffiene if your pwo is stimulant based i personally do not like these they make me shit-amino acids such as beta-alinine (my favourite) which allows your muscles to buffer fatigue -there are also things such as tyrosine, green tea extract, or more directly l-theanine that improve focus and moodnow how does this all tie into being horny? these effects are all present in a horny man. now a disciplined horny man is able to channel this horniness into other avenues than just his dickif you have ever looked at the cock supplements that old men take, they are full of similar ingredients to preworkout in fact, i experimented with those pills as preworkout and the results were kinda iffy, but since i am not a boomer, i can still get horny naturally and it does help as a sort of a natural pre workout>>2922247and for the record busting a nut does not kill your T levels permanently so it is ok to do every now and then (everything in moderation etc etc)
>>2922346>>2922328who cares?
>>2922370I'm sick of the puritanical faggots flooding this site now, they disgust me.
>>2922459they're annoying yes, but how is derailing the thread arguing with them gonna help anything + it is only one guy we can just hide his whiny posts and keep it moving
Hope they dont try to censor any of the coomer outfits in the west if they dont I'll be spending lots of money on this game
>>2922250Yes it does retard, athletes abstain from sex before performing.
>>2922496the olympic villages are known for the olympians having sex at an insane rate to the point where they ran out of anti contraceptives within 3 days
>>2922545Actual 80IQ porn addict, we're done here.
>>2922549>personal insults instead of engaging with the argumentwe're done indeed
now that has been squared away, lets get back on topic- does anyone know of a site similar to garmoth but for aion 2?
>one study>doesn't mention testosterone anywhereWe're done here indeed, based retard.
>>2922590this nigga didnt read his own abstractbased retard
Amazing, this dumbfuck can't even follow a basic chain of conversation.LOL
>>2922549>says stupid shit>gets called out>"nuh uh"Puritans are all retards, it's why you need to latch on to that shit to pretend you're better than other people.
>>2922773honestly, this guy is just trolling and we should get back on topic instead of replying to himin terms of guides, a lot of them seem to be in not english i am hoping that we get someone who knows asian language(s) so they can help me hunt guides down
>>2922558https://questlog.gg/aion-2/enthis is the closest that i have found so far
thoughts on Chanter?
>>2922867i kinda like it, i like having the option to semi disengage if i need to and use ranged attacksi also think their mario attack is a fun idea, i just gotta get used to it i bet it will feel so good to use with low ping
Post more characters/outfits, there must be a few people here playing on TW right?

around what level gap do drops start to fall offfor example f i am level 15 and i am farming level 10 enemies, will i see begin to see less

Is there going to be a standalone client? Or only through Steam?
this thread is just a preview of how retarded the /vg/ one will be lol
>>2923688It's just going to be another mental asylum for gay coomers to spam their brainrot in just like half of the generals.
>>2922867>>2922953(me)this seems like it would have more utility in boss fights and pvp, farming with this is a pain in the ass due to a lack of aoe attacks
>>2923627the standalone will be thru purple, me personally i am gonna play with steam>>2923694i have seen some /vg/ generals be peaceful believe it or not, anytime a shitposter would come thru people would laugh them out of the thread
>>2921437No, I work at who is hosting their servers
>>2923627What's wrong with steam?
Is pvp mandatory for gear progression? and how's the spiritmaster looking in this iteration?
>>2924071>Is pvp mandatory for gear progression?no, sm is good, very easy to play so it averages good dps on every fight, but the peak isn't as high as others
>>2923694No shit, because the coom is all this game has going for it.>>2924042Nothing at all. I just don't know if I want my IRL friends to see me playing this slop. Guess I can just make its visibility private.
>>2923885they were given a passive that makes them zoom all over the map now
I just heard about this game and looks pretty hype. Do you think they'll increase the rendering distance?
>>2924081is there a list of avg dps per class
>>2924227what level do i unlock it? that sounds FUN!>>2924129>my IRL friends to see me playing this slopi am blessed enough to have some friends who know i am a freak, but they dont care because playing a video game is not as bad as our other friend who is following ssbbws on his main instagram acc
i really hope that closet and storage is shared between characters because i just know there is gonna be some outfit piece that i miss and i am gonna try and make an alt to try and farm it
>>2924576>>2924576Free skins are shared between your characters on 1 account but paid skins are exclusive to each characterStorage is shared but there are a lot character-bound items
>>2924595 (me)at least it was like that back in january 2026
Is Rogue fun? Thinking that will be my starter class.

Important questionWhat will be the name of our legion?
>>2925084ahhh shit... we need to have one for asmodians and another for elyos
>>2925110only fags play elyos so everyone here will play asmo surely
>>2924081thanksis it still the same cc freak? shit was ridiculous in the first one, if I recal correctly
>>2925134i saw abunch of anons up there claiming elyos but maybe there is a reason for that...
>>2925110why, its just a server choice, we shouldn't split up
>>2925252there are a few differences... most notably, i want black wings, dont care if everyone else here goes elyo sorry~!
>>2925258theres a million other wings cosmetics but i agree asmo is better, they have more interesting maps
>>2925262>theres a million other wings cosmeticsi saw some but i dont see why i wouldnt just get the wings i want from the start for free, no guarantee we will get the same shit that they got in asia at least earlier on
Official /aion2g/ decision:>Server: NA East>Race: Asmos>Legion: TBD
>>2925246They really should have dropped the faction systemI bet later on they will just mesh both together for all pve content once the population gets lower.
>>2925477i believe it's already like that, you can go cross server pve
>>2925488yeah but I think that's only for instancesthere was world bosses that were faction specificI remember at launch people figured out how to crash the servers which in turn respawned world bosses so assholes kept crashing the servers back to back to farm them
Can i make oppai loli in this game?
>>2925771ya
>>2925772Can you show me what the max chest slider looks like for the loli?
>>2925783no i uninstalled already waiting for global but there's no races, just very flexible sliders, maybe someone else can
>>2925791Awww
>>2925372>EastYeah no thanks faggot
Are names first come first serve per server?I hate not getting my name in MMOs, kills my motivation to keep playingBasically you pretty much have to get the 5 day early pass for a better chance to get your name?
>>2926053what's your name? :3
>>2926053I could have swore it uses like "name#304834system but my memory is fuzzy
>>2925771yea
>>2926348
>>2926348When did they add cow horns? are they on the cash shop or do you earn them in-game?pretty much going to be my permanent helmet I just hope global doesn't have to wait a year to obtain them.
>>2926053i think it is, honestly, why not pick out a list of cute names that you like?
>>2926503they're from the sexy chic devil cash shop outfit. we should get it fairly early on
>>2926574Cool, will buy it asap.
>>2871877unfortunately, i cant run this game. So i will stick to lineage 2.
i have two questions>which classes have the best default animations for jiggle physics in your opinion?>do the guys get jiggle physics too?
>browse through every armor set and outfit on the closet>feel like I've now seen everything the game has to offer and don't need to play anymorepvp looks bad and pve just looks spammy as fuck desu
>>2927147even the outfits are just either comical turbo whore thongs or some korean brain damage kpop/sports trashi want to give the game a try since i liked the first game but it seems impossible to find any redeeming factor
>>2926812You're not missing out on anything. Lineage 2 is a much better game and so is the first Aion. Koreans don't know how to make gamea anymore.
>>2926812>>2927210>browns self deportYou love to see it.
New slutbunny outfit.
>>2927233Browns are the ones obsessing over vapid UE5 gookslop. The white man gets modern hardware to play old games.
Basically ultimate bunny but even sluttier somehow.
>>2927242Is this a joke? What does this have to do with the aion universe? Are they turning the game into some kind kind of fortnite?
>>2927244Sure brownie, off to the Lineage 2 general you go. Bye!
>>2927252Basically there's this thing called money, and since this is a videogame they can just do what they want if people are willing to pay for it.It's not complicated.
>>2927252Maybe this outfit would be more your speed?
>>2927282you zoomers really can't stop thinking about sodomy
>>2927287There's no need to feel down, pick yourself off the ground.
>>2927258nobody is disputing that, i doubt that anon even minds the slutty outfits i think his point is that there is a limit to how much you can push something off theme before it gets ridiculous
imagine being an unpaid shill for some soulless korean slop not even the devs give a shit about
>>2927300I mean there's teddy bear outfits, teddy bear mounts, micro bikinis and panties with the asscrack completely exposed. This shit got ridiculous a long time ago so I don't really see the issue here.
>>2927302Yeah man surely the only thing worse than that is seething about it for free when you could be doing literally anything else.
>>2927300Yeah semen demons and cock angels are expected but what the shit is this kpop trash?
>>2927305Don't forget the sports wear and other real life crap. I find it strange how Asians went from making games with consistent themes and defined artistic directions to pumping out absolute nonsense mismashed slop. It's like the whole society got lobotomized and now all games have to be fornite-tier of retarded.
>>2927305all those things make more sense than a sci fi outfit in a fantasy gameteddy bear outfits could be done any time since sewing is a very old techniquea teddy bear mount can be magicand people being naked works in any setting desui am not even completely against science fiction elements in fantasy worlds, i just think it should make sense and not look like someone got isekai'd from tfd or something
>>2927305Because some people are coming in play Aion 2 because they were a fan of Aion 1Only to slowly realise that Aion 2 has nearly zero similarities to Aion 1 and is instead just a delivery mechanism for selling sexualised second life tier outfits
>>2927316>. I find it strange how Asians went from making games with consistent themes and defined artistic directions to pumping out absolute nonsense mismashed slop.my educated guess is that this is a result of companies being greedy and executives forcing the creative team to pump more cosmetics into the game
>>2927318wait and see how they also add sneakers, rainbow clown wig, pimp shades and do a mcdonalds collab
>>2927326what are the biggest differences from aion 1 and 2?
>>2927316Live service games are very expensive to make, and people gobble up slutwear in them like hotcakes. I think a lot of companies used to have more respect for the lore/theme of their games, but ultimately they just follow the money. Integrity doesn't get you a bonus, or job security; but record profits might.
>>2927326>Only to slowly realise that Aion 2 has nearly zero similarities to Aion 1What do you mean by slowly? They've been extremely transparent about it from the moment the game was revealed.
>>2927326>second life tier outfitsi wish second life was not slowly dying, i love how open ended it is in terms of creative freedom
>>2927336why not just have fantasy themed slutwear? i saw some i know it exists this is why i am here
>>2927343I mean it can have both. The bigger issue here is that the game doesn't let you hide other players immersion breaking gear, which is kind of a let down; but maybe in future they'll add a toggle for it in settings.
>>2927349i dont think most other games have that feature either? the closest we have is making everyone else look the same
why do i have to use a mount? i have fucking wings bro i wanna fly but i cannot fly more than a few minutes
>>2927330>>2927336The fat CEOs merely take advantage of the fact that the younger Korean generation is retarded and has fully embraced parasocial inceldom.If they pulled this shit during the golden age of MMOs, they would be publicly shamed by the players but now they eat the shit and ask for seconds. The game itself is no longer relevant, it merely serves as a medium for them to get social clout and feel like they belong somewhere. It's all about chasing that streamer/eceleb hype train for them. I'd say even the coom aspect is tertiary as the majority of cosmetics are just some retarded shit they think is funny because streamers wear them.This is also why none of those games are made with any kind of long-term planning in mind and the gameplay is extremely rudimentary. They're meant to run for a year or two at most before going into maitenance mode as the studio begins regurgitating the next round of slop. They know that today's players won't stick around no matter what so why bother making a good game when you can just abuse microtransactions in low effort pump and dumps?
>>2927373I should also mention that the devs always appear to be extremely tired and demotivated during the official streams. They're tired old dudes forced to shill soulless slop. They're simply not allowed to make good games or use their creativity anymore and so they're dead inside. The whole gaming industry over there is just a soulless golem moving by pure inertia, a perfect reflection of their society.
>>2927355Once human has a feature that lets you do it I believe (they added a ton of immersion breaking outfits because money, so people complained). But yeah, it would be as simple as just using the default armor appearance that they're wearing, since cash shop stuff is just a glamour put over the top of it.
>>2927253>off to the Lineage 2 general you goNo such thing.
>>2927349>but maybe in future they'll add a toggle for it in settingsabsolutely no way because a major point of those retarded cosmetics is the ability to annoy other players and if that's gone the retarded niggers won't buy them anymore
>>2927258>>2927300>>2927305The main thing you guys are forgetting is the base game is filled with hundreds of lore accurate outfits and they're all free to turn into server side dressing room clothes you can choose to wear 24/7the lore breaking outfits are all cash shop only, I'm actually surprised how generous they were with the in-game outfits most of them are 10x better than the cash shop stuff anyway, you unironically won't care for cash shop stuff unless you're just a filthy gooner or want like an occasional accessory to wear with the cooler base game armor.For me personally I will only buy horns, and the cute plant pets that sit on your shoulder, everything else I want are drops within the main game.
>>2927242looks stupid as hell, this game is gonna look like PSO2 NGS isn't it, if you know what I mean
>>2927562i saw some cash shop items go for 1 in game currency on tw for example, i got this skirt and i wore it under an armour to make it kinda look like a t shirt dress
>>2927388If only that were just Koreans, it's the same everywhere, the only people making what they want to make are indies.
>>2927726that was for all the server issues at launch, it's like a black goth outfit.
>>2927762damn so we wont get that huh? our launch is gonna be smooth and we wont get any gift outfits as an apology
>>2927562The issue is seeing all the retards wearing dumb shit in neon colors on their gooner loli characters every time you do anything online which is kinda the whole point of a supposed mmorpg.
>>2927562Honestly a ton of these outfits are the kind of shit that you'd pay $20+ for in other games; seriously professional quality, and you can just get them for free. That is wild to me.
Tourists can relax, the game isn't going to launch with anything too crazy, and you'll be gone after a month so you won't see the stuff that comes later.
>>2927877tourist?! how about you tour this! *unzip*
>>2927768>our launch is gonna be smoothlmao, its gonna be a disaster like usual, its gonna be somewhat fine only during 5 days of EA and then prepare for ~2-4 weeks of shitshow
>>2927877>>2902644picrel was paid skin from launchback of it isnt as hot as front tho
>>2927768Well before they made it cost 1 kinah it was a shop outfit
>>2927877Everybody but a handful of crusty coomers will be gone after a month. Welcome to gook "MMOs".
>>2928543not sure why you added gook as a qualifier as if western MMOs haven't been completely dead for a decade at least, they can't even get funding to be made for anyone to quit playing them
>>2928183>back of it isnt as hot as front thoi respectfully disagree i am wholly enjoying that little window of booty teasei cannot wait to see my queen in it
>>2927333nostalgia
>>2928552Hey there's at least one(1) western MMO in existence, that's still hanging on for dear life.
>>2929039aion 1 was made as an actual mmorpg, aion 2 is mobile sewage which only exists to play dress up
>>2929736>he's still seethinggrim.
>>2929742must be an elyos player. they are always seething at something
>>2929736the PVE isn't bad in aion 2 but everything else is kind of bleh
>>2929847how is the pvp balancing in aion 2?>>2929039i was asking for the more technical differences between the two, like what systems and mechanics changed or updated etc
>>2929866Pretty bad and the game is heavy P2W but the first launch month at least is pretty enjoyable before it gets out of hand.
>>2929847the pve is utter dogshit from what i've seen so far, just mindless aoe spam and zooming around, basically a mobile game
>>2929927is what you've seen so far a single webm itt?
>>2929997chink dungeon runs
>>2929927Show me a footage from a mobile game with similar combat. I'm watching Madsin's prog runs right now so I assume you can produce something similar.
kinda strange how i can look at outfits but i cannot look at weapons in the closetanyway i was wondering if they have any asian themed weapons since i saw cheongsams and hanboks
Will there be kernel level spyware? That's the dealbreaker for me.
>>2930419yes of course, not sure why you expect to play a new online game without it
>>2930422Because they'll lose a huge portion of their potential audience? Guess they'll make more money by selling peoples' data though.
>>2930423majority of people don't care, we're not in the old ages anymore where internet users are tech savvy, literally every retard is here
paid skin from second batch of skins on KR/TW
also second batch iirc, this one you were able to buy with quna, which means it was avaliable for f2p
free skins, but bottom was hard to grind cuz it was a drop from some rare mob/boss
>>2930521>>2930523>>2930528>>2930528Are there any tasteful cosmetics or it's all ghastly bimbo slop?
>>2930536there was some fantasy-oriented slop but barely anyone boughtered it, although they still release at least 1 non-lewd skin per 21d
>>2930543I meant sexy but tasteful stuff. This shit looks like something aimed towards 50y+ old bald coomers. It's just vulgar and of extremely low effort.
>>2930422are you just saying this or do you have proof?
>>2930423Is this a joke?
This place really is just full of reddit homosexuals now huh?
>>2930521since these are christmas skins you think we will get them this holiday szn?>>2930532i'd love to have this on a asmo
>>2930551post an example of what you have in mind
>>2930588>since these are christmas skins you think we will get them this holiday szn?yeah, we should probably get them at the end of november or mid december
>>2930589>inb4 xhe posts some safe horny shit like lady dimitrescu
>>2930589Something along these lines but ideally fantasy-themed so it isn't completely out of place>>2921695
>>2930592>not liking ridiculous thongs stuck in the asscrack and nipple shields means you're a reddit trannykys retard
>>2930598so this?>>2930528or its too much of an exposure for a closeted tranny like you?
>>2930532>second life tier slut outfitIt's so over for this "game" man
the most fascinating part of gook inceldom is that they're simply incapable of imagining women without high heels at all times which is caused by the deeply seated height complex carried by their women so in the end they're still a fully gynocratic society
This games photo/camera mode is incredibly lacking, you can hide UI and click the emotes from a list. That's it.And probably worst of all, the saved image is in .jpg and substantially reduced quality than what's actually on screen.How the fuck did they get it so wrong.
>>2930650yeah i am severely dissapointed as well regardless, i wanted to appreciate archetecture in this game, what places have the coolest buildings? bonus points for gothic architecture
>>2930642i think that the cute aesthetic is more popular over there
>>2930592lol you triggered that gay retard.
I think the late game plate armor looks really cool it's like balaur themed dragon plate armor.Sadly I have no images on hand of it but full armor sets do look good in this game and there's a lot of room for customization.It also has amazing full plated helmets which I wish more mmorpgs did.
as per usual, i'll just create a male character
>>2930754That's gay
>>2930754BASED
>>2930744>late game plate armorI'll post some into the next thread if one gets made so people can see it's not all gooner outfitsAlthough that is all anyone seems to wear
>>2930598is this outfit in tune with what you had in mind?
i really like chanter but i am sad that according to that link up there, it gets the lowest dps on avg
>>2930602>Puriteen outed
>>2930788I think having a subtle mix is better and more classyfunny enough that tribal bright color outfit that's just a low end blue drop at lvl cap is one of the most lewd outfits in the game and last time I played it was dirt cheap on the market, obviously you want to dye it though.
>try to name my character "castalina""name has a prohibited word"
>>2930909thats for pve, is there one for pvp?
apparently, you get access to different drops according to which faction you pick, for example, the elyos get dawn frost set and rainy forest set while asmos get the tempest set
>>2930532wtf is that, there's no way it comes like that by default, has to be dyed
>>2930909it's a healer and buffer, of course it has low damage
>>2872077>>Subscription allows you to trade, use auction house>>energy bullshitabsolutely fucking disgustingis there any hope for this genre?
>>2931401No, but honestly after playing some old games with unlimited dungeon content I see why they do it, it's horrible for the economy to allow an unlimited flow of drops from rice farmers, as long as the limit is not too low then I'm fine with it.
>>2930994>tribal bright color outfitIt's ridiculous
>>2931464I like this
Here's a collection of armors that appealed to when browsing the closet to try give an idea that there are a lot of actual armor sets out there, and do still show varying degrees of skinBut if you want to be a whore in lingerie you need to swipe
>>2931508
>>2931508Some of them look pretty good
>>2931508>free outfits look much better and clearly had more effort put into themthis says all you need to know about the subhumanity of paypigseven the devs treat them like cattle
>>2931508>>2931510Those looks great wtf. Why the fuck EVERYTHING has heels though? It's fucking stupid.
>>2931508I think you could look like a whore with some creative use of ingame outfits too so, the paypig stuff is just for the lazy braindead gooners out there, which there are a lot of.
>>2931539Yeah you definitely cool, >>2931464 pants for example is only a tiny thong underneath the pelvis curtain which is part of the chest armor pieceSo wouldn't be hard to pair that with something
>>2931539>lazy braindead gooners out there, which there are a lot ofpretty much the entirety of "videogame" boards
i'm more worried about the subscription aspect.. so if you don't buy one, you can't trade? which in theory kneecaps your monetary gains
>>2931750Yeah, you have to buy it or you're basically just on a free trial that limits your progression heavily
>>2930419steam marks kernel ac and so far it says nothing
>>2931508>>2931510did they use AI to design these? lmao
>>2931861ai pretty based if they did, looks cool
>>2931521stfu you faggot
>>2931874looks soulless as fuck
>>2931917oh well if it helps you can mix everything and dye it so the customization goes pretty deep
>>2931887What are you even angry at now?
>>2931255its supposed to be a flex support class, which means it should be able to dish some dmg out maybe not as much as the dedicated dps like why is cleric doing more dps than chanter?
>>2931404i thought they did this because korean gamers are getting addicted to their games so they feel the need to mommy them
>>2931521apparently, heels were more common back in certain periods, even men wore themif you do not want to wear heels, there are plenty of shoes with no heelsbtw whats ur beef with heels bro?
>>2932439the buff raises party damage by 30%~ which is like including a 6th party member. its broken
>>2932458>there are plenty of shoes with no heelsI dont think there is, i went through the closet and there were no flat sole shoes that I saw, I could have missed one or two, but by large everything is a heel
>>2932802Koreans now model women and their outfits with the assumption they'll be in heels at all times. No idea why this dumb trend happened.
>>2930528>>2930532>>2931508>>2931510ur char is a ugly fucking bimbo! show these outfits on a LOLI built char you fucking boring lunatic normal fags.
>>2933030Maybe in a few hours if I can be bothered
>>2933052thx
Yes this is as small as you can get
>paid outfits
why the fuck do you even reply to pedoniggers? they need a bullet to the head, not being listened toyou're just helping the boards remain a shithole forever
>>2933280>>2933286>>2933291Lmao the feet and the footwear don't scale down properly so they look goofy as shit. The body is also completely disjoined from that attempt at a childish face.Lolitroons btfo yet again.
>>2933316Your vitriol contributes more to boards remaining a shithole>>2933332Yeah they're not great, at best you just get tiny scaled down adults. I didn't spend long in customisation though, someone who cares more could probably do better.
>calling out deranged pedo coomers shitting up blue boards is vitriolic
>being vitriolic is vitriolicYou seem like the kind of person to say "I got banned for no reason at all" and logs say you were calling everyone niggers and telling them to kill themselvesGo on, respond so you can have the final say, I'm not engaging any further. Don't want to shit up the blue boards after all
>>2933360you're writing this shit after entertaining and pandering to a deranged shitposteryou've already contributed
Can you transfer your saved character customization preset from the TW server to Global? or is customization data stored server-side?
>>2931521That was an issue with aion 1 as well, there's a small amount of boots that are normal flat footed but they look awful because they clearly designed the models to wear heels 24/7Sadly they were modeled with only horny men in mind.
>>2933385No they made it awful on purpose because they want players to monetize presets with cash shop currency, lmaoliteral pure retarded greed
>>2933402I'm a horny man and I think heels have their place. Having them on everything is just retarded.>full plate warrior and sneaky leather rogue in high heelsPurely retarded and also undermines the goon potential of those archetypes. Leavy heels to slutty sorcerers and bards.
>>2933341>you just get tiny scaled down adultsgood
>>2933481
>>2933405i am just screenshotting my sliders>>2933416>sneaky leather rogue in high heelsi-its a part of my training! its not like i like dressing like this or anything!
I'll be playing as an oppai loli. The lolis look... fine, but you're basically limited to only outfits that don't show breasts since you can't make flat chested characters. Also I hope they allow us to change the feet size in future. I can't think of a mechanical reason why they wouldn't.
>>2933512>I'm mentally deficientNobody asked.
>>2933562I asked, and I care.
u guys must not be on taiwan, you can adjust the feet to your likingim not sure what footfags like but you can make big or small feet
>>2933280>>2933286>>2933291>tits too bigsigh, always something to nerf lolis.
>>2933332I will pretend i'm playing Kingdom Hearts character.
>>2933341>>2933481The proper word is Hebe. Most Hebe's have budding tits
>>2930521>>2930528>>2930532tits way too big
>>2933712I don't think you understand how meshes work, but let me illuminate you. Outfit meshes are essentially 3D models either worn over the top of the character, or (usually) the character's body is replaced by that mesh. In order for flat chests to be a thing, they would need to alter over 150 outfit meshes and have a toggle for flat mode (which ignores chest sliders and has no jiggle). Some outfits, like the school outfit and full body costumes severely limit breast sliders so they work pretty well for loli characters.A nice compromise would be if they just made flat mode for some of the outfits (and a flat bikini), but they wouldn't do that unless people demanded it in numbers.
>>2933332he just minned every slider, which basically looks like the same body scaled down, you have to be better at sliders to actually make it look good.
You need to start studying KR presets to get the lolitech, you're going to fail first try.
>>2933718cringe
and just factually incorrect
I am tempted to reinstall TW but there's not that long left...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbD-bTHReQQ
>>29344591 week until playtest...
>>2934566>still not invited to playtest
>>2933745I understand meshes far better than you do. They would need to do NONE of that if they allowed for flat chested sliders on the outfits in the first place. Simple fact is, they PURPOSEFULLY omitted it.
>>2934479>pay2not play the gameamazing
>>2934806are you talking about the skip tickets? i think you buy with kinah not money
>>2933280>>2933286>>2933291westoids on suicide watchkorea won
>>2934255don't plan to ever make a character like that but the servers will 100% have issues and we will 100% get a character edit ticket as compensationfunfact: free character edit tickets EXPIRE so you get a nice dose of fomo to use it, fucking insanely lamencsoft went full mega greed with this game and its ultimately going to be why it fails
>>2934895It's easy to change your character, they give out tickets all the time, I'm just pointing out how difficult it is to make good looking characters here, you'll need multiple attempts
>>2934897
>>2934898It's exactly like that webm, it looks good in the character creation, then you go in game and it looks entirely different
can you make characters that don't look so... korean?
>>2934908Yes, plenty of different face types, but you're only gonna see Korean looking ones from Koreans playing in Korea.
>>2934566playtest literally only lasts 6 hours sadly no idea why they decided to do it in the worse way possible it should have lasted for at least the entire day
>>2934897not exactly all the time, it felt that way on TW because they had a ton of issues, then gave one out for the "calm down and cope" streams, and then gave another out for christmas eventstill sucks being forced to use your tickets in a timely fashion, compared to their older games like BNS where I have like 10 tickets there over like 5 years of playing on and off because they never expire
>>2934924bns still exists?
>>2934937yeah surprisinglyI logged into my old characters before neo launched and it was sad knowing they tried to reboot the game with 10x worse gameplay and monetization while also not allowing anyone to keep their past outfits and pets but instead reselling it all back to you
>>2934943i remember playing it at launch 200 years ago (yes, i am old) but dropping it quickly
>>2934949it was fun early on at leastfirst few months of arena and pve were kino
>>2934901common theme among most character creators but alas, the delete button exists and we have extra character slots which gave me the chance to master the sliders lest ncsoft get a chance to master my wallet
>>2934908i made 7 characters across 2 servers on tw and only 2 of them look asian
>>2934993>>2914205
>>2934996make your test characters on a server you don't plan on playing
>>2934788Show me a game that lets you switch between flat and huge breasts with sliders on a single mesh and doesn't look utterly retarded.
>>2935066conan exiles
New one >>2935251>>2935251>>2935251
>>2935211Nope. Even with minimum sliders your character still has noticeably visible breasts, just like in this.
I got access now never played first one don't even know what to expect. Does everyone get access or was I lucky?
