    considering no one even has any real details on it, then i doubt any dates have been published (heard someone say middle of 2007 tho, but once again nothing has been officially announced *that i know of*)

    My god has horns.... nah, I don't think he is real either.

    Lineage 3 won't be out for at least a few years.

    try again in a year or 3~4.

    I thought I remember someone that it was said L3 was suppose to be released in early 2007 or something...

    But maybe that is just when L3 info will start being released. But who knows. One thing is for sure, I would rather them take their time to release a nice polished, fantastic game, than a partially broken one...

    It can't be that far off, like 3 years though. Remember they are using the U3 engine, so in three or maybe even two years I am sure a U4 engine would be developed. So within the next year (2007) I would keep my eyes open.

    In Korea L3 annoucned about Q4 of 2007.  Most likely be pushed back.  So for it to hit the USA... I'd say we're looking at 2008. worse case 2009.

    May I ask where you got this information from? I didn't hear NCsoft state any release date yet.

    They said that they would be releasing information about L3 sometime in the beginning of 2007. Not the  game.

    i would say since nothing has been out but a name that it will be about 2 years before it comes out.

    Lineage 2 was way ahead of its time in terms of graphics, and still is in the west. with Lineage 3 using the unreal 3 engine, I'm really curious what the game is going to look like. I hope a screenshot gets released soon.

  • SovrathSovrath Member LegendaryPosts: 32,976

    Quite frankly, I'm a little scared.

    You see Gameloading... I'm what's known as a graphics whore. And if the game is visually impressing then that will entice me to play leaving my (now) lvl 75 character to the virtual worms.

    So hopefully they will make it look like fluff and sugar so that I don't get seduced.

    I know what the game is going to look like ... here are the settings

    600x480
    8bit color
    minimum char detail
    minimum enviorment detail
    no AA
    terrain distance = 0

    well ...under a seige .. cause god knows 80% of us cannot handle a
    unreal 3 engine + 1280x1020 + 200 chars + full render .......

    Let's just say... L3 is not a game you should be holding your breath for at this point. It's going to be a loooooong time before it's released. Just get comfy in L2 or whatever game you're playing right now. ::::35::

    lineage 2 with a sane economy, doable grinding and exciting quest content *drool*

    One things for sure...Taek Jin Kim isn't as naive as he used to be.  With success of WoW and how the contents in Aion are featured, I can affirm that Lineage III is going to be something to look forward too.  But I kinda wish they could've used another engine than the Unreal 3.  Maybe Cry2...

    Anyways, Lineage 3 isn't going to be out for a long time...at least 2 years.  Reason being, NCsoft already announced early this year that they were only focusing on the release of Aion in 2007.  People were kinda mis-informing themselves in 2006, that Aion was going to be Lineage III until, NCsoft actually announced the title.

    Part of the problem with L2 (sort of off topic) is that NCSoft simply isn't reacting fast enough to any of the market changes.

    The economy is sane in L2 now but its a quick fix patch style fix. The "seven signs quest" essentally fixes the weapon cost problem. However its not good enough. To many people either don't understand how to use it or don't care and buy currency anyway.

    The grind/content issue...yes again. Way to slow to react. The quick fix is the dropping of instant heal pots while hunting. What kind of solution is that???

    Leveling should be coincedental to a fun and engaging play experience.

    I really don't get why NCSoft handles the game as poorly as it does. No other game in their portfolio is like L2. Most (if not all) are very content driven. They have reacted far to slowly to the changing demands of the players. This game could be repaired easily. For whatever reasons, they choose not to. Instead they stream in quick fixes wit each new chronicle.

    The same thing happened to Turbine with AC. They pushed it off to the side to make AC2 and it got all the attention. Both games ended up dead. (AC has live servers but is just as dead) and tied up with DDO and LotR. 

    To many irons in the fire. No focus. One disaster after another. L2 is very similar to what happened to AC back a few years ago. Bots where rampid there in its hayday also. As soon as the genre started to grow, people bailed for other games.

    L2 was build on the same leveling design principals as the old style grinders like AC and EQ. People don't want that anymore. Players want to have fun and enjoy their game time, and rightfully so. It is a game and we are paying to be entertained.

    Linage 3 is needed now, to start without bots for the first couple months anyway.  


  • JukanJukan Member UncommonPosts: 325

    L3 needs to be the first game to be created that people don't want to use bots, nor buy currency because it is just too damn fun and engaging to let a program or chinese farmer do the work for you!

    Yea I am very much looking for L3, but not looking forward to having to buy a new PC to run it. image


  • ShousengaShousenga Member Posts: 6
    Well The Japan/Korean/Chinease Etc. Staff Are Already Working On L3 So I'll Say A  Year Or Two. 2007 Is Too Early.


  • JukanJukan Member UncommonPosts: 325
    2007 isn't the release date!

    It was stated that in the first quarter of 2007 "INFORMATION" on L3 will start being released. Maybe something as simple as saying, L3 will take place after L1, or before L2, or something like that....yadda yadda yadda. Maybe we will get a sneak peak at what races they plan on having, etc. Hell, don't even be suprised if we don't have a character model yet by this time. Maybe a bit of concept art...

    Beta will probally be released a year after they start releasing information. Beta in Korea that is! So 2008... If Beta goes smoothly then maybe it will be released live in Korea in late 2008 or early 2009. So we in NA will most likely see Beta in NA in Late 2008, or at most 4 months into Korean beta test, depending on how much NCsoft plans on marketing it to North America.

    I am waiting for L3! But most likely I will play other games before L3 is released...unless L2 keeps changing and becomes really cool to keep my interest away from games such as Aion and Vanguard.
