Hi everybody! I'm collecting feedback about past contests! (hmmm I wonder why... ;) ) Please answer the poll, and remember, you can still vote for a contest even if you didn't participate.
After voting in the poll, and if you're comfortable saying which contest you voted for, feel free to answer the following questions:
1) Which contest did you vote for, and what did you like best about it?
2) Have you ever participated in a contest? If you haven't, how come?
3) Do you find the contests very difficult?
4) If you had to pick only one, what kind of prize would you prefer: a) free game time, or b) in-game items (such as Revita Pops or event-themed accessories)?
5) What contest would you like to see in the Lineage II Community?
I chose the Adena art contest because I feel it brings out the creativity of the community and doesn't require anyone to have any special skill per-say (like being able to make a wallpaper) for prizes I deff like vita pops and unique in-game rewards like special hats and such so you can show off to your friends...
1) Which contest did you vote for, and what did you like best about it? The Movie one because I love watching movies. I wish Nc would make at least 2 every update.
2) Have you ever participated in a contest? If you haven't, how come? Nope. I like the ingame ones more like the race one they had years ago
3) Do you find the contests very difficult? I can't say that I do becasue the only one I did was the race one.
4) If you had to pick only one, what kind of prize would you prefer: a) free game time, or b) in-game items (such as Revita Pops or event-themed accessories)? b) in-game items of course
5) What contest would you like to see in the Lineage II Community? The Race one again or any ingame one that involves a lot of travel in game. I even like that Quest that at the end showed us a movie about the kamael coming. Best thing about events and quest like that is you have to be at the computer to be involded in it.

1. halloween. it seemed the most interactive and fun
2. no. none have been interesting to me.
3. haven't entered so can't say...but some like making movies aren't in my skills
4. both? ^^ If i had to choose revita pops and in game stuff. Cool in game stuff...no lame buff scrolls/potions/etc special accessories or weapon or something would be cool.
Didn't participate in any of them, I like in game events much more. Especially ones that actually help the players out... rather then benefiting just a few players out of thousands.
Don't want contests, want this official website to be updated and correct for things like Skills, Recipes, Weapons, Armor and a nice drop list like they have on the korean site >< since l2wh is no longer updating :(
A good webmaster could do this in a week pulling info from game files :o
Isn't it a little embarassing that a fan site like http://lineage2.rochand.com hs much more accurate and up to date info than the official site? :confused:

I got to agree with Archaya, we prefer the in game events from which we can all benefit and have fun participating. Makes the grind more pleasant.
More of these please. :)
Hi everybody! I'm collecting feedback about past contests!
Listening client is always wise ... but just asking them to talk and do not listening is ... NOT wise ...
1) Which contest did you vote for, and what did you like best about it?
I liked Movie Contest, maybe because it was new to me and I was excited on any news in L2 :D
2) Have you ever participated in a contest? If you haven't, how come?
Tried, but have no well to end up :D
3) Do you find the contests very difficult?
No clue
4) If you had to pick only one, what kind of prize would you prefer: a) free game time, or b) in-game items (such as Revita Pops or event-themed accessories)?
Unique Game Items
5) What contest would you like to see in the Lineage II Community?
Cool contest - update Library of Lineage on official page.
If you can't do it yourself - make contest to let people do it for you.
Payment in artifical rewards like HyperIcarusDualDoomSwordOfExtermination or RobeOfInfinitiveKnowdlageOfDestructionSeeds won't be big issue ....

1.Lineage II Gracia Guide & Tutorial Content
2.No
3.No
4.Unique ingame items much better
5.More ingame events, less outgame contests.
Never really liked any of the contests... They are more a waste of time/resources than anything else. If you think about it, how many players actually participate in the offline contests, whereas compared to the amount of players participate and or are effected by in game events. Not trying to be rude, but the contests are genuinely a waste of time for the majority of your player-base.
1) Which contest did you vote for, and what did you like best about it? Remix only cause while i didn't submit my mp3 it was far easier to edit and submit a mp3 than the movie event which had alot of problems editing
2) Have you ever participated in a contest? If you haven't, how come? i try and i like to see what i can create. i just run out of time
3) Do you find the contests very difficult?movie contest. the formats and editing i wasnt too keen on
4) If you had to pick only one, what kind of prize would you prefer: a) free game time, or b) in-game items (such as Revita Pops or event-themed accessories)? IN GAME!!!! Vita pop's should be given to everyone and then extra to those who enter the contest
5) What contest would you like to see in the Lineage II Community? I would suggest it be a mix of mp3 and movie contest to be put in an Advertisement to promote the game. who better to put l2's best foot forward than its own players as it seems we bring the most people to the game by promoting it to our friends.
as a ultra prize for winning thus fly said player providing they are 18+yrs of age to NCNA for photo op and a day helping cm and gm's in game. with lots of photos capturing said mythical gm's. im sure there would be more tacked on but thats the jist of it.
Sorry, don't do many contests except for the one where you guys came to GenCon and met the players of online games.
That contest got me my unique item :)
Contests are ok, but are we really looking for what here?
We need reasons for people to log into the server!!!!!
Now, take the Holloween event from Lin1. We got a tranformation that was actually cool, you could wear it full time and it was fun.
You have transformations in game now, but how about some pure fun ones?
or the wands, etc from Lin1. Imagine how a field of battle would be leveled if a level 80+ toon was turned into an elpy with no armor and no weapons for a few minutes if a wand was used against them -- lol good stuff there.
No, I would think that at least once a month a mini event of some type, friday thru monday, double drops, double exp, unique items of some value to the community that don't slow down your picking up of drops while you hunt normally, and updated info on the main site :) maybe even some pazaze :)
1) Tutorial Guide. Because we all saw the mess it was of people willing to make a guide.. but gave up because it was NA only.
2) Nope. And probably never will. I spend too much time IG. :)
3) Have no clue.. but I would never be able to make an Adena Art.. I'm more into ascii...
4) Either. But for every continent NCWest is responsible for. Don't make only NA-side events.. there are more europeans playing, then Americans.
5) I said this.. 2-3 years ago.. and I'll say it again. A Pk-A-Bot contest... for 3 monts. Each AFK user.. you kill, gives 1 lvl of Vitality. If you're already full.. then it becomes a buff... and increases 1 min per AFK player you kill.
*Bumps the head on the bedside table*
- Ah.. I'm awake now... I'm having strange dreams... :x

5) What contest would you like to see in the Lineage II Community?
2) I didnt only because I am European and there was only one for eu players.
3) Nope if its wallpaper/movie etc. contest. (I really like Photoshop :D)
4) c) something like t-shirts, computer equipment with the logo of l2 etc. (something that we can touch in real life) or in-game items like not tradeable vesper sets or the best raise player lvl by 1-5.
5) completely new, you may contest in which we would have to design a weapon, armor, monster or terrain with everything you need for fun in the world l2 (exp / rb / dungeon places) created on pc or painted on a sheet of paper and scanned into a computer.
If you would be able to do such a contest can reward was to work together with NCsoft to finish your project and give it live in the next future updates. (this would be a prize if somebody make smth very professional and cool)
Thats my opinion and sory for my english. ;)

1 Wallpaper guide
2 No, most dont interest me
3 yes some
4 In game items (permanent accessories only)
5 Wall Paper contest - all ingame images only
Like a good cop bad cop kind of thing? I don't think it will happen, NCsoft has enough trouble keeping 1 com. mgr. at a time, and gm's are only exist in mythology...
see this is why i think you need to fly the winner for photo op...

2 No, most dont interest me or too old, I haven't played l2 at this time...
3 average
4 In game items (accessories or vitamin's Pet and exclusive korea agathions like baby panda... )
5 comic contest like this one http://www.lineage2.com/news/event_rules8.html (why did you not add it on the poll ?) maybe for Freya Update :D

Comone guys and leadies vote ! =)
Our new gm Sace want to know it !
I wont vote for any of them, for the simple fact that there aren't any I liked or even wanted to participate in for that matter. From the looks of it, the majority of others have just about the same thought process as I do. I don't think many of us would mind doing things that would help us help L2. Much like the idea above about making a commercial type video, or even having someone update the L2 website. These are all things that can help out more then just a single winner in these events.

This is my vote. Stop wasting resources on 'Out of Game Contests' and either invest time in addressing what the player-base actually wants for once if you intend on making us happy. Only a fraction of players invest time into these out of game contests, where as in unique in-game events would effect a larger scale of players, and get more people actually PLAYING the game, and looking forward to continue playing the game.
I loved the contest where the official site was brough up to date...
oh wait
! LMAO

lol, out of game contests take WAY less resources (time and work) to run
than actually fixing problems or doing anything in game. Think up idea -> post one page on web -> wait for responses -> take not very much time to judge it -> whoo it looks like NC did something when it's the players that did all the work. /yawnzors. I've never done one and 99% chance never will.
instead, spending some money or time on advertising would do wonders for everyone's game play by maybe getting new players in. How much does some internet advertising cost? ANY advertising would be better than NONE and most players don't care at all about the out of game contests. Most pepole want stuff in game, and this includes new players.
and as for in game event stuff, I want things that DON'T take up room in my inventory ffs.
Spending money advertising a game that's what, almost 7 years old? That's a waste of money at this point. The game is dying, really the only thing that is going to prolong it, and maintain it a healthy playing environment is just to continually merge the servers until the game is pretty much dead for good.
Lineage 2 was a great game due to it's end-game/replay value, and when you have servers that have No-PvP/Competition, there is no end game replay value to make players want to login and play, at which most just quit out of boredom, and or go play other games... not because they are better games, but because it's something else to do.

I think its ironic that the kids that botted their way to become L2 invinceable PvsPers and therefor have some purpose to their lives wind up with nobody to play with...kinda poetic justice.

I voted for the wallpaper contest because... I like to do wallpapers...
I would like to request though that if NC does do another wallpaper contest to PLEASE UPDATE THE FAN SITE KIT which hasn't been updated since the Kamael/Hellbound updates.
There is still plenty of stuff to advertise about this game. It's not like we've had our final chronicle or throne, we are getting more and more content each year. Jesus, if that trash ebony can afford advertising Im sure a huge company like ncsoft could put a little muscle into some for l2.
Spare me the dead horse beatings; there is plenty of stuff to do still, especially those who don't play 24/7. I've had more fun sieging the last few weeks than I have in the last 2 years of playing this game!
If a pvp clan wants competition, make some. Especially servers where just 1 clan dominates, they should stop being little whiney [female dogs] and break off into 2 clans and pvp each other, rather than just sitting in hero shout moaning they have no one to play with. I don't really see whats so hard.
Thanks everyone for all the feedback, I now know much more about what you guys like and want in the game! :)
It's true that contests are something that can usually happen faster than an in-game event, and I will host a couple of contests per year. I feel that contests are fun out-of-game events that encourage participation on the official forums.
I am also compiling ideas for future in-game events that will cater more to your desires.
