New Poll and Old Results New Poll and Old Results Sep 21, 2009 at 10:05 AM - With a resounding "yes" victory, 423 of those questioned did indeed participate in the open beta. No surprises there, haha.But now, with release merely hours away, all those who preordered got access to a two day head start. So this week's question...just how much of a head start did you get? Read, Set, Head-start! Read, Set, Head-start! Sep 20, 2009 at 11:24 AM - As we count down the minutes to today's head start release at noon PST, players swarm the forums and frantically refresh twitter in hopes of being able to login and play immediately. Realistically, it won't be that smooth, but a small part of us is hoping that because this game has been out for so long that 400,000 pre-orders storming the gates at once shouldn't have any affect, right? As usual, stay tuned to the Aion Tower for the up-to-the-minute action as we also frantically hammer the server, news sites, and twitter so that you don't have to.

Gearing up with Preorder and Collector's Gearing up with Preorder and Collector's Sep 20, 2009 at 11:13 AM - The benefits are many to be had if you have preordered Aion or are the owner of a rare and much coveted Limited Collector's Edition. Notable among these is an array of in-game items you can give to your characters. To assign them to your characters, please follow these instructions. NOTE: You will need to follow these steps for each new character you create in order for it to receive the items. You will not be able to do this right now, but the feature will be enabled shortly.

PalTalk and Worlds.com Sue NCSoft and Other MMO Companies PalTalk and Worlds.com Sue NCSoft and Other MMO Companies Sep 19, 2009 at 8:07 PM - PalTalk, holders of two patents, one of which allows for chatting while playing an online game, recently filed a patent infringement lawsuit targeted at NCSoft, Blizzard Entertainment, Sony Online, Turbine Entertainment, and Jagex. PalTalk recently won an undisclosed amount from Microsoft's X-Box Live for a similar patent claim, and now looks to target all the big fishes for their cut of the MMO pie. Additionally Worlds.com has filed a claim against NCSoft and Activision, parent company of World of Warcraft, for infringing on patents held for "scalable virtual worlds with thousands of users". If successful, they will no doubt target all of the other MMO companies for its share of the wealth. Add these two babies to a long list of stupid patent lawsuits that have been fought in the last decade. Perhaps it is time to revisit our system? |
