Please Tell Me You're Joking NCsoft

- KeyWord: Aion, cbt, beta, South America, Europe, English, MMOrpg, P2P
- Summary: Aion already had beta in Korea to test gameplay. To be honest there is very little need to do it here. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TRANSLATE KOREAN TO ENGLISH. In other words the whole point of any NA beta should be to check for typos(which btw, is everywhere). What happened to that one time when you were talking about worldwide release?

After entering open beta in South Korea and China, NCsoft finallly announced Aion's closed beta in South America and Europe. Here arises a question: what costs NCsoft so much time to set an English version? After such long time of waiting, will players receive a MMORPG that deserves it? Do the screenshots and videos NC revealed tell lies? Let's keep watching!

elliot - Please tell me you're joking NCsoft
Are you serious? June 19? and lvl 1 - 10? not even opening abyss? Are NA NCsoft really that incompetent or are you getting some kind of sick euphoria from making us wait even longer with this pointless beta crap?

I log on today and translation in 1 ~ 20 Elyos area isn't even complete! Who the hell are you hiring to do your translations. Divine Stones being called 'GODSTONES'? SPELL BOOSTING POWER? when you can just say Spell power? No wonder item names don't even fit in auction house frames. ' Bob's HP was healed by 123 because you used Healing light II?' .... how about 'You healed Bob for 123?' or 'Your Healing light II healed Bob for 123'? LOOK. I have better English grammar than you and I'm not even getting paid for this!
Don't get me wrong. I waited so long for this game. And I even endured the beginning zone zerg rush-waiting 1 hr to get 1kill for mission quest. The game looks gorgeous and the stability is just incredible. Aion runs better than WoW with superior graphics.
It just kills me to look at these half assed efforts by NA NCsoft. You didn't even make this game. All you have to do is translate an already made game and deliver it here. By the look of these beta dates Aion is going retail by Christmas. Jesus christ. Every single person here in Aionsource will tell you that you had more than plenty of time. Seriously, you can do better.
Then again I guess you have no reason to listen to me now. I already coughed up 70 for your pre-order.
Quote:I really was going to be content with beta this weekend, but wow. This just makes me nerdrage.

Pretty stupid how some people call this a WOW clone. I certainly understand that WOW is big in the US as the US have not evolved in the future mmo genre but do
understand that the art styles of Tera, Lineage 2, ZerA are very similar because it's KOREAN MODERN CONCEPT ART (fit in your head) just like WOW has very weird art styles, asians go for a very commercial and attractive look. I look forward to playing Tera since the gameplay looks wicked and the UI is plain and simple. If you are not into korean MMOs and only support games such as WOW then don't play. Though I'm sure TerA will set fire just like Blade & Soul will.
WoW is EQ clone its a fact do ur research if u think its not. And wow WAS the "shit" pre bc. Onyxia, Molten Core, BWL NAxxx 40 man raids were the BEST which made WOW the BEST MMORPG but since BC came it became a grindfest then blizzard decided 2 nerf the name 2 the ground ( no req to get into hyjal or black temple ) and now they just nerf'd the shit outa ulduar so GG blizzard 4 killing a great MMO but its not their fault its the QQing noobs that think game was 2 hard to play. Anyway Guild Wars 2 will kill WoW
Facebook, haha. Is that what Sony really thinks? Sorry, but they are wrong. Of course WoW will *eventually* be dwarfed by *something*. Game technology keeps evolving, graphics, gameplay, etc. One day it will be taken over by something. But not by a Facebook MMO. I'm sure that someone at Sony has a daughter that is like "All my friends and I are on Facebook!" and that affects their thinking, but the reality is, that isn't the lauchpad for the next big thing, just because it is a social place and you already have an account. You can make an account at a new game within 60 seconds, it's not a big deal to do so. It doesn't have to be somewhere you already have accounts. Plus, you are using Facebook for different reasons than to play games. There are a billion people there that have no interest in MMO's. Are Sony exects that ignorant?
Its so good to live in 2009. Some online games have really good graphics and psp games are also getting better this year(I have the psp (hahahaha!!!!))
Happy happy birthday MMOsite!
a great article. your and my experience does not have much differences and i also like enjoying the game's sorroundings and doing quest with a group of people but having too much botters and cheaters really destroys my gaming experience.
