Turns out the “naive fanboy” was spot on and right.
And the “experienced” who “know” NCSoft where simply wrong,
but no one bothers anymore and is doomongering allready again about recent updates, falling back to their so called experience.

Just check the official & in-official forums, where NCWest posts and it’s easy to see how capable – technically, intellectually, organizationally (thanks to Elmar for the wording^^) – NCWest is. Aion in NA/EU was dead 6 months after launch and NCWest has done everything they could to not establish the product properly. At the same time they completly failed building up an healthy customer-relationship (from ‘soon’ to rewording the same non-info several times …)

The fanboys should check what’s currently going on with Lineage 2 in NA/EU – or what’s actually not going on … The Next update ‘High Five’ is going live in Korea tomorrow. In the Meantime NA/EU still hasn’t delivered the current update ‘Freya’ and is still debating if they gonna do the next round of server merges before getting ‘Freya’ live in NA/EU.

This also gonna be the future of Aion in NA/EU just in a much shorter time-frame than Lineage 2. NCWest simply can not handle the product properly – just look at all the typos, misleading NPC names, screwed up descriptions, texts, UI-elements. These are all ‘bugs’ NCWest could easily fix on their own without having to check with NCSoft in Korea. Droprates, balancing, basically all the core functionality of the game never gonna change from the korean original (even tho NCWest attempts to make it look like they could) – but that’s also not expected, with the exception of fan-boys and people having their r 1st NCSoft experience.

Like langlang said, it’s history repeating – so enjoy it while it lasts (NCWest is doing nothing else than that, who ever thinks differently is delusional IMO).

They might step things up a notch now that final fantasy 14 has released their publish date but they certainly had no intention what so ever of releasing 2.0 in na/eu in June or July. Even if they do release it in septmeber, that is way too late and way too long. We were originally “promised” in sysc updates. September is also much more time than how long it took the koreans to MAKE the patch.

Why so much fan boy bap? Ncsoft pay your bills? Y u so mad on the internet?

Theres being pessimistic and theres being outright, well … wrong.

And 1.9 has been released when the Korean timeframe was open until 30.June. Thats close to two months earlier than your “ALWAYS, ALWAYS, FUCKING ALWAYS VERY FUCKING LATEST” date.

Theres being experienced and theres being outright, well … wrong again.

So who is the one fucking naive here?

There’s being optimistic, and there’s being born yesterday in a barn fucking naive.
