It's funny how people blame/curse nc and be like "omg worst company ever this is so bad this is a slap to player base omg i am canceling prestige etc etc".
and NCwest is laughing, because NCwest knows, no one of you will cancel prestige and all of you will continue to play the game and spend a fortune each month.
So, guys, please stop posting negative comments. You have nowhere to go, you will be here forever.
I stopped spending money on this game 6 years ago.

Let's say it took me years to make my hotbar and I used it everyday, I would be back up and running in a few minutes. My many alts would be back up as I used them. Like some have said the muscle memory you should have from playing the game will help you thru these tuogh times. The horror would've been losing all the macros to all those toons. Still since you created them and use your toons skills daily, no biggie get thew ones needed back with little errors. So, yes this is not a crisis for most and those impeded by this database issue will survive once they spend more time play the game than post about how hard the gamer's life is. Black Saturday is in the past, no need for compensations or hugs, GAME ON!
I don't play all of my 24 classes or 480 hotbars daily
You should really consider that sometimes you don't have a clue of what you're talking about.

It is fun to read about peeps freaking out over silly stuff in a game 22 years old.
I'm not understanding what the age of the game has to do with our current frustrations. Now if you had a little empathy, you'd understand it took some of us months or even years to set up the perfect hotbars.
The unreasonable comments over the server crashing are a little too much though IMHO. After all, it's software running on mechanical hardware. It's not going to run smoothly or perfectly 100% of the time. There will be setbacks like these.
Lesson is learned. I'll take screen shots of all of my hotbars as a backup from now on.

funny how they cant remember whats on the hot bar..
I could press the keys with a blind fold.
Maybe you only play one toon. Sounds pretty boring.
Some of us play 24 or more classes. Your memory is that great? I, personally, have screen shots for my 1st 5 bars on each of my toons. It's the other 6-20 bars I have no backup screenshots for. It's not that big of a deal for me though. I'll eventually repopulate the less used bars in due time. Some of us are simply venting our frustration & the inconvenience that NCsoft/NCwest isn't responsible for.

Hello everyone,
We are still working on resolving the issue. However, we will need another unfortunate extension. We anticipate the downtime to last until midnight on 8/28 PDT, roughly two hours from now.
I apologize for another extension
.
HermesDon't lose any hair over it. You'll eventually get it resolved.

Such visceral comments. No need to be so harsh. Everything will be OK. I promise.

@HermesI understand there are factors that are out of our control (I work on tech support too), and sometimes it takes some time to figure out a problem. I am with you on that NCSoft. I've been there.
Now, what you have control over is the downtime compensation for Chronos server. A) Olympiad for example, Chronos was not able to compete on the last day of the month to do Oly, and we know the last week is the key. Chronos lost easily 5 or more heroes (lost also legendary hero too) because they were not able to do their matches. B) XP and Dethrone. We all know that Dethrone is the best XP of the week, and several players might not be able to xp during the week because work or life, but they look forward to be in Dethrone because the XP in there will make up for the missing XP during the week. Not only that, we compete in points with Naia and the winner server has extra XP/SP bonus for a month + adena.
I hope NCSoft realizes that Chronos not just lost 8+ hours (by the time this was posted) of XP in game, it lost more than that. Chronos lost Legendary hero of the month, several other heroes that were in the lead, and it also lost the competition in Dethrone which combined with Legendary hero is a descent xp/sp bonus Chronos won't get for a month.
I don't think the Golden balls are going to be enough of compensation this time, and you know that too. Please be fair with the compensation. Not sure how the compensation will work for heros that lost Oly this month.
Hermes clearly said there would be more compensation in addition to the immediate Dandy balls. You guys need to calm down.

What if no one buys nc coins for a month. Lets see how big of a hit that will be ...!!!!

Hello everyone,
Another update: We will need to extend the Chronos server downtime by one additional hour. However, we are bringing the Dimensional server online in a few minutes.
Regarding compensation, we will be discussing it once the problem is resolved. However, once the server is back online and stable, we will spawn the Angel Cat as an immediate action, and additional compensation will follow during the week.
I will keep updating this thread with the latest information.
Regards,
HermesJust a request: don't tease us with mediocre compensation with an expiration date. Make them permanent, please.

ok.. have you NO knowledge about Oly??? its enough for Naia fighters to reach certain POINTS.. without proper resistance.. SUPER EASY to get!!!! what does it matter how much time Chronos fighters have.. the others just dont need to fight anymore.. to prevent loose points!!!

It's really not THAT serious. Besides, Chronos could use a month off from hero spam. Would be a nice vacation, so to speak.

Can someone please explain to me what this Angel Cat is?
It's an NPC near the Gatekeeper. It gives Dandy balls to play with.

Hi,
Have time zone has been changed in server to reflect summer time?
As everything shifted 1hour later since clocks been moved to summer time but seems in-game(server) clock is in pre-summertime.
Summer in the northern hemisphere begins June 21st, 2022.

There is an easier way to make very accurate assessments. For example many games like Lineage II, BDO, Rappelz, had horribly unbalanced PVP, instant kills, and just bad design. Everyone asked for balancing for years.
Here is the secret which applies here also. If they COULD do it, it would have already been done. Thus you can count on it being a failure indefinitely.
It takes a miracle 1/MILLION chance like Final Fantasy to actually fix real problems. Thus you can count on failure and be right 999,999 out of a million times
It can most definitely be done. I've seen L2's gameplay work tremendously well before GoD 2011: PvP was fairly balanced; Everything in game could be farmed from quests & raids; Siege participation was extremely high; Finding a party was possible during any hour of the day on any day of the week; Plus, the majority of the community understood game mechanics.
None of that is true now.

That's not entirely true. It's a tough situation, but that doesn't mean there have not been victories. Archeage? The DEAD game that got buried with the stigma of P2W sent the game into it's grave. Allods Online had similar issues and had to revamp their entire shop. EU has been pushing regulation against loot boxes as well as other countries.
The power resides in the consumers, they have the spice of life
MONEY
Spend wisely, educate, and help make the MMO market a better place.
Thing is I've been waiting for this L2 community to wise up to this since 2012. I'm done hoping for them to catch on. Most simply give up & quit.
I'm very aware of Netherlands passing a law against this type of behavior.

The issue is THEY will win. However, the entire MMO community including those who pay will always in the end be the LOSER.
You may get temporary gains in a game, but at a cost of the player base, future games, content, PVP, etc. You never really win by paying.
Which is why I don't Pay2Play.

I'm not even going to ask for these things to be changed. None of these were by chance, they were intentionally crafted this way.
I would rather just inform anyone reading the posts of the tactics being used and the difference between P2W and just pure scam.It's a shame too, because Lineage II is one of the few IDLE games on the market with this much content. It's actually quite unique.
I've been raising awareness to this fact for years. Nobody will listen & things will remain the same.

If NC wanted they could have easily had the biggest playerbase in the world of MMOs and earning lots of money, if their marketing/dev team were actually GOOD. But unfortunately they've decided to go this way, low playerbase with BIG l2 store spenders.
If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it? I'm pretty sure they'll revise their business model to something more beneficial when it's a better option. Unless, of course, they decide to end the game.

Point this out and remind it ,to those who made a business and their main job from this "game".
I'm still not seeing why there is a need to spread rumors & lies about anyone even if what you say is true about individuals treating this game as a job.

Literally has nothing to do forcing a stance to be active all the time vs having cooldown while changing from one stance to another... so I don't get your point.
English isn't your first language huh? It means they don't want us to constantly & consistently change toggles. I don't agree with the change either but noone can honestly say it's not in the patch notes.
Changes have been made so that at least 1 of Feoh Wizard classes’ attribute skills will remain activated

Enlighten me with a good copy paste of it or even a screenshot mentioning the change of the stance cooldown.
It doesn't go into detail about cool down. This is true. Although, it does give you an overall intention of the change.
Changes have been made so that at least 1 of Feoh Wizard classes’ attribute skills will remain activated:
-
At least 1 of Feoh Soul Hound / Feoh Soultaker / Feoh Storm Screamer / Feoh Arc Mage’s Origin Fire, Origin Water, Origin Earth, Origin Wind, Origin Holy, Origin Dark skills will remain turned on.
