How does the Head Start Work?

DojoDojo Member CommonPosts: 42

Hey Everyone,

   I pre-ordered the game and I heard about the head 48 hours which I think starts tomorrow?  How exactly does that work?   Do you just use the account you created with your pre-order key?

 

Thanks!

    Dojo, the first thing you will want to do is create your 2 characters and select the name for them. I would strongly suggest doing this today. This will reserve your name, character and server. Then on the 20th you will be allowed to play 2 days before the games official launch. On the 22nd the official launch of AION will take place and anyone buying the game from that point on will be able to play. Hope that helps.

    Ditto-thanks for getting the word out. I should add some servers show full for one or the other faction.  If you're heart is set on playing on a certain server and you can't create your character because that faction is closed, be patient as the server will open up. Your other choice is to just find another server.

    My question is, does the headstart begin at midnight? :D

    Headstart starts at NOON on sunday for west coast and 3pm on the east coast. Everyone else can figure it out from there ;)

    Tomorrow will be a busy day for NcSoft! With GameGuard gone, hopefully the Headstart lauch will go smoothly.

    Headstart begins at 12PM GMT-7. Sweden looks to be GMT+2, so it should start at 9PM your time.
