    It is sad to see such a poor communication toward this License,
    Aion Classic Europe is indeed waited from alot of players.

    There can't be communciation when there is nothing to communicate, if anything happens, there will be as usual.

    there is nothing to cummunicate becouse there are no efforts or plans of even starting to tackle any of the platform issues classic realesed in kr at november 11 2020 we are walking towards 2 years you would think 2 years would be enogh for gameforge to solve a platform issue if they really wanted to becouse as far as licence we know from ncwest that gameforge has it already 2 years almost same time took to develop the game itself but not enogh time to fix a platform issue ok....

    Not promoting nor giving name, but there is already a private server around with Aion Classic NA 1.5 real files (and also Aion 1.2 from 2008/2009) and they managed to attach their own launcher to it.


    Private server out here doing better/faster.


    Gameforge make profit buying game licenses,
    that what they do(and its all right), and I think for me the moment they are focused on Sword Of Legend Online and another game they recently acquered.

    It is clear they do not focus on Aion Classic,
    Aion 8.x is freshly released in EU,
    alot of other new MMO released around here,
    They have other licenses to manage.

    And it seems CM like Galeas is working on multiple platform (mean different MMO) for Gameforge.

    Even if as Galeas said, Gameforge tought about this Classic idea long ago before ncsoft, since it was known that Aion Classic is out here (KR+) I didn't see any effort from Gameforge to make it faster to get it (2years+ = 0 evolution).

    For sure there is some unknown side issue we will never know,

    but as mentionned before,


    Seeing how they treat this "Aion Classic" matter, (look where this topic is Off Topic / SPAM), it is clear for us that they don't prioritize it for almost 2 years nows.

    KR/JP/CN/NA/TW got it yet EU has its confirmation that they have the license.

    Yet 0 annoncement or a garante of any release date.


    Therefore I will not be surprised if the community itself will have no pitty in any matter regarding Gameforge / and also the staff once the game is released or facing any issue regarding the license.

    We just gonna sit around and wait for a miracle.

    As I explained multiple time fixing the platform issues does not rely only or us or on effort. It has nothing to do with having time or not to fix the issue. If that would be the case, it would be fixed already ;) You don't know what has been tackled or not you are just making (wrong) assumptions.

    As I said just before, at this point we can't prioritize it in any way since we can't have it yet. We can't start working on it until we have the greenlight that we will have it. Until this is resolved, there is (almost) nothing we can do. Other GF games don't have an influence on that. The fact that I have several games doesn't have any influence on that (I always did have several).

    Classic server:

    Both Gameforge and NCSoft would like to make AION Classic happen in Europe. However, we still have first to tackle together technical issues related to the platform used to run the AION classic version before we can set things in motion. We currently can’t run AION Classic on the existing platform that is used for the current version of the game.


    Sep 3rd 2020

    We just some players that get hyper by Classic annoncement 1/2 years ago, since then we didn't get any ETA because apparently the situation didnt evolved.

    Galeas is it Ncsoft fault ?


    In this 2 years gap did they worked on this issue ?

    Because you didnt mentionned the fact the team / people who this issue rely on are currently working on to resolve it or not ?

    2 years for a platform issue that why we are asking who is responsible to understand how come a simple platform technical issue didnt get solved since 2 years this issue has been annonced.

    Platform :
    Account linked to different Game MMO (Ncsoft launcher 1 account different MMO)?


    Launcher : Gameforge Aion Launcher that cannot have Classic attached to it at the same times ?


    What does this Platform issue is really about I might didnt understood what it is ?

    Not willing to argue since we players arnt member of the staff just wanted some info,



    ====================



    Also how does we report that server who is using Aion Classic NA files to promote it in Europe ?
    They are currently using the same client as NA Classic, the sames files / database / bugs. (selling skin + siel aura etc)

    Since gameforge have the license of Aion Classic in Europe and this private server is providing exactly what Gameforge will release (their server is currently on with a peak of 500+ players), since I cannot mention its name or give a link could you pm me on this forum ?
    (or delete my post if its not autorized to talk about it)

    I do regularly , like I just did in the post you quoted. If I have relevant information it would be shared as news and not in a normal answer, since the topic is so important For now, there is no point in going further into the details of what is going on, that won't change the situation or help anyone.

    So what we understand from your post, is that it is NCsoft responsability to fix those platform issues, they have done it for NCWest (NA) and Russia now too, no?


    So basically they are not fixing the platform for you so EU players go to play in NA and give them extra profit lol. And you are not complaning to NCsoft to block IPs from Europe on NA? or to fix this inmediatly?


    So yeah, you will release Aion Classic when it will be dead already in Korea/America. Good marketing. (going back to play Guild Wars 2 again...)

    Did i missed something? Since when is russia getting aion classic? Any sources?

    I just read a post about it some pages before, so i was saying like "it also got fixed no?". Not sure at all.


    Im watching MyAion right now, and literally all the regions have Classic release except Europe and Russia. China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan and NA have it.


    Its unbelievable at this point (getting close to 2 years).


    My predictions are that IF we get it, it will be for this Summer (as always), if we dont have it by this summer/september. GG/GL, its not happening.

    Innova getting the license for Aion Classic and they annonced it way earlyer than GF mentionned it publicly.

    they had the same trouble as Gameforge it seems,
    but they seems to have "fixed" it and will get sooner than EU.
    I can give source / official link for their forum but not sure it is autorized.

    As I've understood it, they use the same game shop/item database as KR client (and could therefore seamlessly implement classic), while Innova and GF have their own clients that are incompatible with the KR classic database. Might not be 100% accurate but that's the gist of it, I think.

    Nah Classic Aion use a remastered client based on 2.x with aprox the same database,
    but that is not the issue Ncsoft providing everything when they sell a license,
    the issue is not technical, its more like a conflict of interest.
    We will never know, the final end of it is that we still don't have Classic nor any progress on this issue.

    That is clear that is done on purpose.
    We can argue alot on it it will never change just need to wait until they finaly motivated to release it.

    As I explained multiple times, you are wrong, the issue is technical. We don't have a working client for classic and we need one. There is no conflict of interest in any way or shape.

    monthly peak to check on progress, nothing new.. mby need to check every season monthly looks to ambitious, oh well cya at the start of summer

    Did NC already start working on the client or are you still in discussion whether they are even going to or not?
