Hi guys,

Thanks to 3vil i'm currently playing the beta. Heaps of fun, loving every second. It looked finished but today the server has gone down for 36hrs for about 5 pages of new content/updates :) Its gonna be great.

I think most of yas know, When i started playing Dark Ages of Camelot (the last benchmark in MMORPGs) i disappeared for a while, it was a great game, great people but shit customer support. Anyway, i've been askin around and managed to get a few who have seen L2 and would like to play it, what i want is for people wanting/willing to play for this game, its P2P btw, if you'd care to merge with guys to make a GU guild or something like that.

Btw, customer support in this game is good, and with the beta being free thats pretty bloody awesome. Hope we can get a few people interested, will be lots of fun. Will post info about the game if anyone would like more info.

Thanks,

-Vorlon

Post 3

Chances are I'll be playing it.

Post 4

Yeah i been playing closed beta to, Just waiting to see whether or not they delete my dwarf :(, Guess i can rename my clan if my character is lost though.

I would be willing to pay a bit to play this game, Have found it very enjoyable so far, Especially when ya get large parties of people happening. Being my first MMORPG i can't really compare it to anything but i think its great.

Use are all on the North American Server correct?

Tachi i'd suggest taking the Bounty Hunter path if your sticking with dwarf, they can't craft but they are good looters. Oh and your dwarf will be wiped when we go to Open Beta. Probably when it goes retail as well but no word from NCsoft yet.

I'm currently playing a dwarf and loving it, its supposed to be one of the harder races/classes to play but i feel its very rewarding...i like crafting and i will taking the warsmith path.

Post 10

pay to play. sif!

Post 11

Ya cockroache its pay to play with good reason. The best games i've played are P2P (Pay to Play) btw. The money thats paid every month goes towards 24hr support, new content and fixes. There are other reasons, i just can't think of em atm...got up to early :shock:

Post 12

Character my be wiped at prelude, (current update)

Post 13

nah tachi, won't be wiped for about another week when open beta starts. They need the higher level players to test the prelude chronicle before open beta.

Post 14

Im in :D

Post 15

Heh character wasn't wiped for prelude, Now i can pointlessly lvl up and have my dwarf wiped for OB :)

Hmm the guild your making is for lineage 2 correct?

Hmmm i might join although i made a guild in closed beta, so made a heap of friends which would like to keep it going for when we start again. Only problem is the bloody time differences. When i play in the afternoon they playing at like 4am :) etc.

Post 16

:) yeah guild is for Lineage 2.

ps. List uptop has been updated.

Post 17

NCsoft releases Lineage II Open Beta plans! 03/24/2004

On March 24, NCsoft revealed it's plans for Open Beta testing for Lineage II. The biggest news was the non-deletion of Open Beta characters, so that players can continue playing their Open Beta characters into commercial launch!
The Open Beta test will begin on March 28th.

FOOL!

Post 32

If you guys are so anal retintive about your cap's I will have the client at dga for the people only in beta and ONLY in beta.

Post 33

Its not like people not in OB can play anyway, And the downloadable client won't work for when the game goes commercial.

Post 34

The client works ok, the buggy part on the install file was this one:
ChrSound.uax - which you can just download from someone who has it, and you're off.

Post 35

ah hehe d/ling atm and doing some reading - be on soon :D

Post 36

Post 43

They aren't accepting anymore poeple for OB but from what I have been told you can buy key's ingame for 45k.

Post 44

Post 45

Keys are still coming, but they are 36 Hours delayed min I heard :(

Damn! :(

Post 46

Yup coco would be about right, I got mine roughly that time later.

Post 47

I registered three times, Vorly rego'd for me bout six times and i believe that Evil rego'd for me as well.
I didnt get one key from them.

Post 48

Hehe n00b....:P
Nah Ze, some people teach mage skills, some teach fighter skills. She wont teach your sorry ass any fighter skills, thats all. In fact i dont blame her for not wanting crap all to do with you.... :twisted: :twisted:

Post 56

Yep.
Also, if your skills are costing that much sp, im assuming your at a reasonable level.
The Dark Mages are able to gain fighter skills at higher levels, as far as i know.

Post 57

Every 7 lvl's you mystic's get new skill's.
Every 5 lvl's fighters get new skill's.

Post 58

Hes talking about crossing skills.
Ie - Fighters getting mage skills and Mages getting fighter skills.

I 'think' its possible once you hit level 21 and are able to change your career path.

Post 59

If you mean going from fighter to mystic or vice versa, I don't think you can.

Post 60

Career path changes at 20, But if you were a mage to begin with you would only be able to change into more specialized mage classes, same goes with fighter. There might be the odd fighter skill a mage may get but no crossing classes.
