    Hello Adventurers,

    Game servers will be down for additional AWS optimization on Thursday, April 8, 2021 at 9 a.m. PDT  / 6 p.m. GMT+1 and will be unavailable for approximately 3 hours.

    With this maintenance:

    • AWS server optimization

    Other Notes

    • Compensation will be determined and shared later.

     

    Thank you!

    Welp. I guess this unexpected server crash will expedite today's scheduled maintenance?😢

    ¬¬ This only happens to lazy people. I've been playing console & PC games since the 80's & don't look like the example in this Dailymail article.

    Get out & play some sports. Go to the gym 4-6 days out of the week to get some proper exercise.

    none of those were planned to be part of 4th July, just pure coincidence of how the event cycles go

    well that's a whole different topic...

    what you wanted me to comment on the whole holiday festivities celebrations traditions etc ? there many different approaches to take to that and all are subjective so why not just respect ppl have different opinions & believes ? :)

    we both agree that we are due a fun event, what more needs to be said ?

    Nope. I don't expect you to comment about why people celebrate holidays.

    I did't change the topic. That wasn't my intent to divert the topic to why we celebrate holidays. My comment about holidays weren't my opinion or belief. It's historical fact.

    Yes those events were entertaining & I do wish NCwest would continue to bring them back.

    a clear example of a real festive event tied to real world used to be the easter bunny event where players would transform to bunnies or the x-mas ones with santa porting around and handing out rewards near xp parties

    I don't care if the events weren't specifically designed to reflect or represent any particular holiday. We enjoyed them because they were entertaining & happened to occur on our days off from work & school.

    Holidays mean nothing to me. Most of them, like Easter, originated from cult & occult traditions. Others, like July 4th & Thanksgiving, are celebrations based on lies.

    You're supposed to pay at this day and age. Just pay like you did before and don't complain much.

    Just because you choose to be exploited doesn't mean everyone else desires to be exploited. Some of us miss the old L2 when gaming skills mattered. Before this pay2win-online-gambling gaming model.

    The line of LineAge.(Just how I see it, nothing else. Probably you guys see it in a different way)

    1. Once upon a time ... LineAge

    2. A few years later - Pay to Win ... something like LineAge

    3. Now - Pay to AutoPlay... Think about it, please... I think that`s realy stupid!

    4. Next year most likely - AutoPay to AutoPlay... That should be the last update and after that just: "Game servers will be down for maintenance beginning Wednesday at 5 a.m. PDT / 7 a.m. CDT / 8 a.m. EDT / 2 p.m. GMT+2 and will be unavailable for approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes. Standard database maintenance and application restarts will be performed.

    If you have any questions about the changes taking place during this maintenance, please feel free to post them on the forums. We also encourage you to follow @LineageIIOps for maintenance and server status updates. "

    No questions ofc. We just AutoPay, AutoPlay... or maybe some funy guy (lost in the game) gonna ask for RedLibra... :P:P

    Well said B|

    That's a small list of some of the things I miss from the "good ole days" of Lineage 2.  

    Thanks for typing this so I didn't have to. I agree with all of this:x

    I played Bartz (beta), Hindemith, Phoenix & Chronos.

    the only answers provided:  were that it should not be afk, and that the pk system worked as he wanted to,

    Thanks !

    Wow... You already knew the remedy to your "problem". Also, why not clear your PK's before you AoE? (rhetorical)  That way you won't exceed the drop penalty limit that currently doesn't exist.

    This game used to be fun when it was hardcore. Now it's designed for carebears who don't even actually play the game. Just AFK macro & buy Ncoin for instant gratification.

    The entire gaming industry is ruined & I blame the consumers.

    So nope, no deleting of my oldest toon, and I'll keep hope alive. 

    These newbies don't understand the work old-skoolers put in back when the game was an actual fun game; full of skilled players. Instead of this online casino platform we have today.

    They achieve Lv.85 within minutes & buy Ncoin for instant gratification. It took us years to get Lv.85 & endless hours of farming to obtain gear.

    well technicaly this is not an excuse. free to play doesn't mean it's a charity, people spend money they expect something back

    Yup. Also, customers should receive a guaranteed service or positively gained outcome in return for their purchases. You're supposed to receive a guaranteed upgrade or item. Instead, the L2 store is managed like a online casino which is marketed to teens. Not to mention exploiting customers. But hey... people are free to choose to be exploited as they wish.

    I put as an example

    i kill a mob alone = 20000 adena in FOS

    i kill a mob in party (1 members close) = 10000 x 2 adena in FOS

    i kill a mob in party (1 members in city) = 10000 x1 adena in FOS

    i kill a mob in party (6 members in city) = 3000 x1 adena in FOS

    I know that Adena is divided

     

    but the members in the city don't get adena

     

    should win the same adena as killing alone regardless of party members

    please respond if it is a problem or should I modify something

    Looks like to me that you're exploiting the party bonus & seek to benefit from the adena drops as well.¬¬

    Although i partly agree with your original statement, i strongly disagree with the quoted statement, people here will never stop donating, people buy stuff and promotions before they even know what they are, they literaly beg for promotions and then cry coz a) they did not get what they thought they were paying for and b) some1 else got the new items by paying crazy amounts and they are overpowered.

    People pay coz there is no other way to gather resources. The problem is not jut the 107 adena farming area for people with trillions of gear. The adena droping problem is concerning all lvls. The steady nerfs are what drives people to pay out of necessity to progress, not to get that little extra bit to enjoy the game. Most of the needed gear to enter IOS is not obtained by in game means, your jewels brooches, cloaks, some rings/earnings some shirts, some circlets, artifacts agathions and so on. Not gonna bother making estimations about the real money equivalence that a character "investment" costs which is many cases reach absurd levels.

    Many years ago i played  a different game (name doesn't really matter) which had rmt that eventually got out of hand coz people wanted to dominate the pvp and not actually play(like here!). At some point they closed down their servers. You know the thing that people cried the most? "I payed x amount of money in this game,  i want my money back". To the people saying i donated X amount and can;t do Y thing anymore and to all the heavy spenders: did your get your moneys worth out of this game so far? if yes i don't get what separates your complains from the rest of the people that also don't get adenas that correspond to their lvl. If no, i really don;t get why you keep donating heavy amounts.

    I've been ranting just like this since 2011. ¬¬

    ...equipment makes a huge difference, but the majority comes from lvl. I saw a huge damage increase from 107 -> 108 without even changing my gear, I am sure once I hit 109 it will happen again.

    Yup. There's a damage penalty if you're not the proper level range of the NPC/PC you're killing. You do more damage & receive less when you're a higher level than the NPC/PC you're against. I hate this & it should be removed but that's a pipe dream. It's designed this way to encourage Ncoin sales.

    Before F2P/P2W, a Lv.62 could defeat a Lv.80 hero (back when Lv.80 was the max). After the Kamael patch, a Lv.76 could defeat anything above it's level in PvP & PvE. Of course this was when the game was fun & balanced.
