My client seems to be updating. But every time the update finishes, there seems to be another update. I'm starting to wonder if I'm actually updating or if I'm actually runing a 'full-check'... Click the blue button on the launcher right? And then click the button on the left when it finishes (on the popup)?

This happens to everyone so don't worry about it (its updating, it just updates a little at a time). Use the red button to restart the update.

The smaller blue button on the launcher is actually the full scan... The larger red button is to launch the game and alos to check for update right before launch.

What he said. You probably will find yourself downloading a lot of stuff, as theyve patched something on this game just about everyday I've been playing. As I stated in another forum, by the time it gets to EU/NA, it should be very polished.
Just started playing AION KR today, to be honest, I have to say I am disappointed with the graphics. The control, gameplay is excellent, but I wonder why the graphics are worst/no better than Lineage 2. Trees, grounds are pretty rough, even with AA on. I think Aion does a great job in enhancing skills animation, but on the other hand, its graphics quality on the environments doesn't meet the expectation for a game that's created 5 years after Lineage 2. Maybe I am expecting too much? let me know what you think.

This is a mass market MMO. The aim is to compete with WoW. L2 graphics shut out a large audience simply because their PC couldn't run it. When you turn the graphics down all the way on L2, it still runs badly and isn't all that pretty. Aion graphics are well done, but I understand you why you may have expected more. But more would have come at the expense of audience size, game performance, and development costs.

I agree, some things like ground cover / land mass looks sub-par while other things look very nice. But with all of it, you can still run it with a Nvida 8600 videocard (maybe not the best but still doable). I can live with some of the detail being like it is as long as the frame rates are high in mass pvp.

does anyone know of any particular server that english speaking players flock to? If so could some of you guys PM with a screen of your server.
I'm DLing the client right now, and my cousin just bought me an account in korean. So I should be in by tomorrow. I haven't decided 100 percent which side I will be on yet.
So I'm one of those people who just couldnt wait and started playing the Korean Retail. Despite the fact that I cant read Korean, and youve heard this before, this game is a-mazing!! Theres plenty of guides online to help figure things out, quests are easy to figure out since they tell you exactly where to go, and the graphics are gorgeous. Its actually surprising how manageable the game is even in another language.. Best advice i could give to those who are frustrated they have to wait - don't wait. Go google "buy korea aion". Just fork out the money, spend the couple days downloading/updating the client. Go to mmosite.com's forums for some guides on how to read the screen. It's worth it. I will say this for those who are resolute in waiting - they patch this game A LOOOOT. Seems like everyday I go to log-in and I have to wait 15-30 minutes for a patch to download, so by the time it hits the Western Hemisphere, it should be pretty polished. Also if you're a non-Korean playing the Korean retail like myself, shoot me a PM and we can meet up.
edit: and also, I learned the hard way that GameGuard does not work with Windows 7. So if you have W7, you're SOL
double edit: heres a link to those guides. For those of you who are teetering on the edge of whether or not to pull the trigger, this should be a push in the right direction http://forum.mmosite.com/list.php?id=244&sid=245&cid=1
I'll wait but PLEASE keep us updated. I've been looking forward to this game for along time and it sounds amazing. I've been playing Lineage 2 from day 1 so this game is going to be a great new game for me to play.

question tho do you guys use the vpn or no? read did NEED to but just wanted to check
nope no VPN needed. I just log on as normal and I'm able to play just fine. Btw I have to say the game is great so far. I know that's not much to work on but I might expand on it later.
I got 4 Char's on the test server now. Lvl 33 Spiritmaster, Lvl 32 Templar, Lvl 32 Scorc, and a newly made Lvl 25 Glad.
High lvl aerial dog fights are fast and furious, Can't wait to get my new wings for my Glad (you can't transfer wing upgrades to your other char's via bank, so I got to buy it for each char).

I'm having problems accessing the launcher/updater. I've downloaded the client (weighs in around 9 gigs) but I cant see any exe? Also, clicking on the PlayNC Launcher gives me some kind of error which I obviously don't understand.
I have the eastern asian language pack installed on Vista, so Im not sure what the issue is.
Yeah, I don't see any exe files too and when I click on Aion icon it throws me to the Korean Aion official website. I see that there's PlayNC Launcher but it throws me to http://www.plaync.co.kr/

Btw, I downloaded the client from http://www.3zoom.com/aion-client.html Thanks
Think I've found a fix for this.It looks like they dont include the launcher with the client -
"to get your launcher up you need to go to http://aion.plaync.co.kr/ (in internet explorer) type in your username and password and then click the big blue button above your login details..."
