1.Is there any chance to get a F2P HellBound/Interlude server on the server list?
Im agree with You. I want to play older chronicles Lineage 2. GoD is not Lineage 2 IMO. GoD is looking like 10000+ chinese/korean mmos. Now L2 is commerce ... so sad.
Is there any thing your going or will do for all the players that have been there for you (Linegae2) for many years I have been playing the game and it seems to me that the game is still fun. But there are a few bugs that have to be dealt with.. we all know that this is something that we have to deal with like any other MMO. just want to know how you are going to Deal with the issus and if any thing what. We (myclan) all have been playing the game for years and we would just like to know when the new stuff is happen sooner then what you have been tellings us in the past , That way we have something to look forward to.
Thank very much From Beta tester of Lineage2 and still playing the game
Will class specific Legacy weapons, that are obtained after awakening, play any role in future updates? Are there any plans to diversify current 4th classes by giving back some upgraded old skills from former 2nd/3rd classes?
if you guys think the game did not have bots before going F2P then i have no clue what game you were playing. my server not only had bots but it had an alliance protecting said bots. it doesnt matter if a MMO is pay to play or free to play there will always be bots. why is this true? because no MMO Developer will do what is necessary and do either IP Bans or file lawsuits against websites that violate the EULA, COC, and TOU.
Now for My Question: Will a new race be added to the game?
because the TOS doesnt hold much water they get away with it because goverment is stupid to all things internet
the game is ok till 85,great content....but after 85....everything seems rushed,and with only 8 classes,everyone will have the same toon,do they plan on ading more awken characters?....or more custom skills? i wished you had like 20 race skills,and 20 class skills from which you choose 4 or smthing
or maybe a talent tree like wow and other games.....altough i don't think most people will like this
Why ruin the game with a pay2win model (DEWR / DEAR / POWER SHIRTS etc...) ?
Why most of the private servers can deal with bot while retail cant ?
Why servers had a drop of 2k players after the Power Shirt added to Shop ?
Why the community of bots players are raising while real players are droping ?
Why you cant test the patchs sended by Coreans ?
Why you censor your forums ?
Why its more hard to level in NCwest while its more easy in NCeurope ?
Why you dont recruit competent people to your support ?
Why You make downgrades in the game ? Like Harmony "update" giving advantage to players that Bot up to 90+?
Why you dont do nothing about ZRANGER PVP BOT PROGRAM used by players in castle seige that cause LAG and instantly help an intirer clan to kill the important targets ? (Lets see if they censor the name of the program here)?
1. Any comments on the degradation of the quality of service from NcWest? For instance almost any update will cause new bugs and ninja fixes with sudden server shutdowns, poorly thought quests that caused the players to spam on the login screen for +30 minutes to be able to login, recent problem with geodata that now is disabled causing movement in places like ramps a game of skills.
2. Imbalance between free players and paying ones with the provision of gear by means of ncoins. For example the recent Power Shirt and Scrolls of destruction for R weapons/armors.
3. Will you finally fix bots? It really makes me wonder how World of Warcraft has 0 bots and ncsoft will not fix this once and for all? I don't like jumping into conspiracy theories, but this aging problem reallly makes me wonder.
4. Will the old quests be updated with usefull rewards? The forgotten scrolls from the 7 signs epic quest are completely useless following the skills change.
5. What are the plans against the raising competition. Tera, Diablo3?
6. How about dropping in something for the NON-donators and NON-top players? You had the crafting of R grade gear really cheap a while ago and only the already top lvled players could get the mats and recipes to craft. Now you have it back to the old insane amount of required items for crafting. So the prices on already crafted gear goes up, making the rich richer and poor poorer. Nice capitalism system, though i am afraid as real life teaches it will crash sooner or later. But why should we worry, you still allow bots so you push ppl into buying adena, which brings us back to my 3rd question. (My two cents of sarcasm).
This is all that comes to mind atm since I am at work. Be warned I might hit again
Will future events have rewards that are not tied to the store but are also worth having? I speak of events like the evas runes, the Santa Event, and the enchanting event.
Has there been an internal review of NCStore selections since the release of the power shirts? What was the consensus as to future store item releases and their potential effect on gameplay?
There are some postings on various boards that claim that the xp needed for each level is different on the NCWest servers than it was on other servers with this same update. Is there any truth to that?
1st. Why you do not simply add the power shirts/destruction to an a IG campaing/quest/raid. An make it posible to all ppl for obtain thats items (make its very hard OC)... All the private servers (or at least the best of them) are give the oportuniti to all players to reach all the items (even if they are in the donations list -vease Galleria or store here-)?
Ther is a lot of bot controlling programs arround the net (vease lameguard) an all of them work very fine with all the bots programs (even the newest version will be imposible to use). Why you do not simply add some like this to the game? is cause 90% of the players IG are bots?... If that is the problem, remove the auction house off the game, an make posible to offline trade (buy/sell/manufacture shops). If the problem is that, a lot of ppl will make tons, just add restrictions zones (where the players are imposible to make a shop, like close to npcs) like every private server have. I think can you do that
3rd. Where will be releases in NCwest the new Tauti expansion?... They will have all the content show in korean patch notes?
4th. When will be added the acount services?. What options they will have?
5th. We can fight vs Shillen, eva, einhasad or/and grand kain (like epic raids) in the future updates? when?
6th. Why you dont simply add a event engine with more funny events, like tvt, capture the flag, last man, etc etc?... I think that, there will be more funny these events like the actual campaing sistem
7th. Why you do not add (I think that this are petitioned from the c1 launch) a translation to spanish and portuguese language (cosidering that, english spanish and portuguese are the 3 most speaking languages around the world)?... remember that, we are a big community into the oficial servers from now (at least magmeld and shillen).
8th. Why you do not add more payment options, like sms payment?
9th. Why you allways try to ruin the game by making a rush-in into the final lvls of the game?... Remember that, the end-game is more beatifull when you make a GREAT work to reach him.
10th. Why you do not try to make the game backwards?... More hard in the beginning, but a little more easy at the high lvls?. And, by removing the vitality sistem.
11th. Why do not try to expand the max atk speed/cast speed max acu/evasion?... Cause many players can reach the actual max stats, and inst funny to see that. (if you know that you can reach more).
12th. The new dark/light sistem of the castles, and the new festival event, will make the game like faction game? you will add a red light saber and a blue light saber?.
13th. Why you dont leave the ppl see how many players (and a list of them) are online in the community board?.
14th. Do you have a problem with the korean ppl?... Why you ALLWAYS change something from the updates make in korea?.
15th. You see us like "chino-botgrinder"?. Why is more hard to lvl up in the ncwest server?
16th. About the store. Why you do not simply add the mats/recipes for r grade items, and remove all the other shits that you put there?... OC, like i say in the question 1, put all the store items into the game for the non-pay ppl (hard, very hard to get). Remember that, if the ppl who pay is your revenue, all the non-pay ppl is the fun for the "pay ppl"... Both are needed in order to stay fun in the game. (if a group of non-pay ppl, work hard, they will have a chance).
Hi, i want to ask about the kamael race.. any chances that they can take any sub???? (since the star of destiny cant be adquired anymore) its any possible way to make this race to wake into a diferent one besides tyrr-iss-yul-feoh. Other races can awake into any other class with DUAL CLASS.
2. When services will be aviable including transfers to any other servers?
3. It's there any plan-Event to get new hair-accesories? (It's well know that champaings fail most of the time and also they are 90% empty)
4.Any plans for adding support in Spanish/French/Portuguesse
First of, thank you for making Lineage2 free to play and congrats on your 8th year anniversary.
My question is more on the business side of L2. I'm very curious as to how you guys manage to keep this game alive this long using F2P. And I'm also curious if the pay to win system enough to generate revenue to keep this massive game alive.
1.) How does the free to play system affect NCWest's revenue and how will this affect game updates in the future ?
2.) Do you require less people now to manage L2 ?
3.) Is your ability to procure advance technology/services to manage L2 affected by the F2P system ?
1. When is NC Soft going to start providing actual customer service for hacked/compromised accounts instead of just giving a set of bound gear which is useless not even for the players class, and tell the players thats all they can do which is not true.
2. When is the store going to offer actual previews of gear in game on the character, and things such as XP Boosts, and other useful items not only 5 hour boosts but 30 day subscription packages and such which include those boosts and stack with additional hourly boosts for those who want to pay for them.
3. When is the game going to get an actual auction house so players can sell and auction their items off.
4. Why not remove the trade restrictions on all Cash Shop items there is no need for them allow players to sell/trade them in game.
5. Why not improve to the crafting system which better explains how to obtain stats like accument, allow players to craft their own items and such instead of the way it is now, and get rid of the old Enchant Scrolls there is no need for them really. * Instead add these to the cash shop as sell items with higher chances of enchant success and just charge adena to enchant in game from a NPC.
6. Make quests easier to understand for example Soul Charging I think its called where you obtain a red crystal kill monsters or something it is very confusing I haven't played for years I can't remember now to do it now and it leaves me super confused.
7. When is the Dark Elf hair bug going to be fixed this is one where the DarkElf wears a robe and suddenly their hair changes even when they did not change their hair and it looks ugly.
8 When are cosmetic changes going to be add back to the game cash shop such as changing hair/appearance in game since the old Ancient Adena method of obtaining these items was removed.
So, I was wondering there was suppose to be a hotfix for Harmony that buffed daggers substantially. I was wondering how far off that is and if you could shed some light on the subject? I know many people that are very eager to know and hopefully you can help us out! Thanks!

How is balancing going on with 8 classes instead of 32? Is it really that much easier than it used to be?

ElSevillano@ Here Hello to our friends at NCSoft.
My question is this, it is possible that the game comes out or suffer any adtualización from English to Spanish?
Take TERA back and create another new game! Lineage II its over!
because the TOS doesnt hold much water they get away with it because goverment is stupid to all things internet

@Renoaku
1.The soul crystal quest is just about dead. I am not sure if its even offered anymore. The luxury shop in giran sells the soul crystals now.
2.There is an auction house in game now that was introduced with the Goddess Of Destruction update.
