I have an i7, 16GB RAM, gtx 1060 on a 100mbps Internet connection and it crashes for me as well. The game client is not written to handle crowds.
While it is an MMO or something like that.

Will I get an answer?
I think Retail will be on life support for remainder of its lifetime.
-
I don't think we get a compensation.
It's a "never happen" behave.
We should keep pinging CM-s on Discord, I want to know to be honest like some ppl couldn't use 3 days Siel since outages continued.
-
Honestly what is there to think about?
just give out 30days siel.
They problems weren't anyhow close to 30 days, so if GF would do what you wrote then they would:
- lose money- encourage further ddos attacks (as it's worth for a player)
Another 3-4 days Siel + some stuff maybe for those who play atm some went to other game D4.
-
Bought siel's for 3 months and already regret it...
Never FOMO or pre-order, never give in to temptation.

This is disrespectful from all the gameforge staff that are handling aion classic/ retail servers. How can you say you are working on something when it's 3 days now since we face this ddos attack problems? What compensation can you think of? 3 days, i mean literally DC after DC, not being able to do anything, and they come up with excuses and old excuses, like anyone would believe these lies... None of these guys are man enough to tell us that they aren't working, and they will handle this situation in the following working days, just leaving it in thin air...
Its their servers, ddos is a lame excuse who would attack a small Aion lmao.
The attack is focused on all gamefore services and games. There is no focus on AION alone.

Your server-park can still be garbage as I see it and "all I care" says the ordinary player aka "victim" of outages. Its not crossing it out 100%.
People complaining here are your PAYING CUSTOMERS this time, more so than Gold Packers on Retail and "customer is king".
GF is specialized to run niche/thrown away games and salvage them so I don't expect top-notch servers - outsourcing/lowest budget possible - is motto of this day and age, wild capitalism at its finest. -

Dang, I had forgotten Elys also had more instances and easier instances.
Talk about being spoonfed :')They used to be underdog against edgy bad boi asmos in KOREA. However thats lazy game design, implement ely/asmo "dredgion" and "invasions" then to put pressure on "winning" faction. Balaur failed this in later patches esp since actual defense was removed on Retail and I didnt mention Abssy yet where Dredgions - NPC ship patrolled and you could be killed by them.
-
For all other players, I beg you. Do not spend any more money in the game unless we have the servers stable for at least a week straight. We vote with our wallets. Please be on the side of players and hold this company accountable for their services.
This part will be deleted because "boycotting". Rip.
You are right and answered your own question/dilemma: "are you really just milking us for all the money you can while maintaining minimal investment?"
They wont refund you and this is why Gold Pack is superior you can just stockpile it and take breaks even. We tried to tell you guys paying a sub with no alternatives aka broker/kinah is a big
flag. 
(Gifting is meh and more risky) -
Real sub experience.

Display MoreNone of the"problems" mentioned in the question are of big concern to me. There are other reasons for not p(l)aying.
The nostalgia isn't there for me. Not that expected much of classic anyway. It's old and not all games age well.
And... I stopped playing because I can't finish quests because people that are 10+ levels above me enjoy killing me over and over.
Those guys are the target actually - gankers buying SUB + PASS and possibly shop stuff to sell to "plebs". These ppl defend Classic fanatically actually as they are "winning".
-
I find it funny that they try to tackle the Kinah problems with special "events". Honestly, it feels really tone deaf, especially in this case where it's for soul healing (which really shouldn't cost anything if we're honest).
Sine they can do this that tells a lot, didn't they say they need help from NC and cant change anything. Turns out they can tamper with some values temporary, so they could make this last weeks with some other "event" for instances - super pve and people would be busy and occupied. How come we are smarter than GF higher ups lmao, goal is keep people buy Siel + (your pass) = mid-term = they stay - you cant approach it with same attitude as you do with Retail of grabbing the money and job done...

Hey gameforge, what the hell is this crap? hahaha
i can't sell , because of this stupid restriction.
didn't find the table with all the limitation for classic, but as far as i know, we always had a weekly NPC sell with GF
(on retail, it is on this topic)
it resets the night between tuesday & wednesday, at midnight.
Yea but those are/were newer patches with diff economy and you guys pay hard cash for sub ahaha, its hilarious .
-
This is why I play scout so I can hide lol.
Yes it sucks but asmo do the same indeed, recently swapped from Elyos to Asmo and I got ganked by roaming squads of high level asmo's more times than I can count.
These kind of "pvpers" have returned in huge numbers and they missed this "toxicity" , the power to "make them angry and hopeless" and to hinder their progress. Howeve elys are more numerous so it will grind asmos down more - just like happened on Retail - old Telemachus is a good example.

Actually it starts to resemble Retail, but it is even harder to progress which is ridiculous knowing what Retail is. On retail you can get some basic gear, some older content, kinah!!! lul etc.. on here you cant progress to mid-tier (missing stigmas and be poor beggar is super low tier... kekw like at 50 you have eggshells attached to yourself when you are a young adult eagle.
Asmo home front and economic backbone is destroyed by this + combine it with elys numerical superiority and wallet superiority...... -

Display MoreI've been playing aion for over 15yrs and i've never seen bot banned in western servers i think for 2 main reasons:
50% of users has a bot couse in 2023 only few people can spent 24h/day to farm a decent set
Also without bots people will pay something like 2-300k for a white manastone and 1-2M for a yellow one
I personally use to kill bots when i want some easy kills to complete abyss quest and i suggest all to do the same
Aion came out in 2009 so 15years it is not.
Siel in NA has rampant bots as a result everything costs a fortune.
Price go up because of all the kinah generated by merchanting drops.
That's why in February, Korea have now made it so the merchant will only pay you 1 kinah for a world drop.
Didn't candies cause kinah inflation at start? NA = a person walking with an open wound, as a starting point. I doubt all that candy kinah just sublimated. I read crying about empty broker on NA Ely side coz bots were rekt so no stones etc.. Every coin has two sides.
-
That's your solution ? make X accounts to sell my stuff ?and my logic has no flaws, learn to read, the guy asked for farming spots, i never said i need to run dungeons (which are week limited) to reach the 2mil daily cap .
Paying for a premium account, and i'm beeing prevented from playing the game, with stupid bot limits & what so ever. We're already on some weird bastard version which has nothing to do with the vanilla version, but this is too much. Preventing people from gaining kinahs.
NB : you can't trade white items, & some blue / green items that are droped from certain named mobs. so having others accounts won't help much.Limit would make sense if they WERE FIGHTING INFLATION , but thats not an issue here with costly kinah sinks built into the system. Btw that mentality comes from retail I guess where they abused veteran system to max then it was removed.... Same searching for little backdoors mentality, instead of facing GF upfront about issues.

Hi,
I know classic is not really old aion and all that jazz but ... Why are lvl 45-50 mobs still dropping lvl 20 manastones and lvl 25 gear ? Is this a bug or 'intended' ?
I mean, you lvl up in the world so you can kill bigger and better things and then you get drops that are the same as the lvl 10 mobs you started with and can make no kinah out of it...
*
WRONGBUTCHERED DROP TABLE IN CLASSIC
Did they think they wont be found out by veterans and even then it is silly and unnatural for a 50 drop low level crap not trash item (grey) but crap gear. -
It is intended. Read the several topics next to this thread. Loot table and kinah you get when you sell to NPC is nerfed by like -90%. Everyone is hoping for a fix but I personally don't think anything will be done. They might add p2w/rng events for kinah and thats it.
This confirms my theory about grabbing da moniez $$$ >>>> the game itself and its survival, but not as direct as candy on NA and they postpone collapse a bit. They learned things from NA, but not things which people have hoped for aka how to milk more $$$ and you are right shop will have something I am sure. These things happen for a reason, remember EC gold piggy bank price nerf a so called GF freature and entry nerf or lurkers, veteran levels and rewards, hero trial - restriction and punishment - a good motto....

This is just my humble opinion so take it as you want. I think the PVP system needs to be changed.
Level 50 shouldn't be farming people lower than them. It's toxic. There should be a penalty to discourage it. Or a on/off switch for PVP like most games except areas like the Abyss or high level areas 45+.
This pvp system is the reason people play this game this will never be changed.
PVP in the game sure is fantastic, but killing lvl25-30 players who just try to do campaign while you're lvl50 is not and that's a massive difference
We had ap gear twinks (lvl30-35) killing 45-50s back then.
Guard system should have been tweaked in areas with toxicity danger and some extra patrols esp for asmo as their guards are nyeh esp in Gelk later. Ely guards could doom lure/stun strike from 5 million kms, better placement and chokepoints with ely guards. I think elys are already outnumbering us on both servers. Thats about mid-term balance.
