Thank you and Farewell...

Dearest Lineage II Community,

It is with great sadness that I come to you today to bid my farewell to the Lineage II team.

Lineage II is a game and a community I’ve been a part of for most of my time at NCsoft West. This was a very difficult decision for me, as Lineage II is more than a project to me. I am so proud to have been a part of the great teams that helped bring it to the North American and European territories, and to have been a part of the community, the people that are the very lifeblood of Lineage II, who made Lineage II great. The friends I made in and out of the game filled my experience with unforgettable memories. The direction I am taking within the company will still allow me to work with and for Lineage II along with other NCsoft West titles. However, I am sorry to say I will no longer be working as the Producer for Lineage II.

I have not been able to achieve all of the goals I had originally set for myself, but please know that great things are coming to Lineage II. I leave you in good hands and I know that the current and new members of the Lineage II teams are excited about the future of the game.

So thank you, each and every one of you, for giving me years of fun, excitement, and memories.

wow.... well best of luck in the future no matter where you might land.

I guess leadership speaks volumes at NCWest?
The Best of Luck in Your Life.
How about going on a 24 hour bot banning rampage before leaving?

Just for fun...
Omeag, I wish you best of luck!

I still remember years back when you were one of the GM who had helped me. It is sad to see another veteran go, but if you are still with NC, then maybe we will see you popping into L2? Maybe you can cause some major chaos then!

(Yes, like someone had mentioned in another thread, you should spawn Antharas in Giran square as a farewell gift. I will be waiting on Aria to see all of the dead shops. XD)

ok, just kidding!
hook me up for some more DoD omega <3
Sorry to see you go. I wish you joy and prosperity on all your future endeavors.

And by the way....



CAN I HAVE YOUR STUFF!!!!


Godspeed.
CAN I HAVE YOUR STUFF!!!!



Oh... man.... I missed my big opportunity to use that line. Gratz on thinking of it
Well, didn't know you, or even that you existed, but I wish you luck all the same, and here's to hoping that the move is a promotion not a demotion as it sounds like it is. Best of luck in your further carreer and if they ever give us beers in game or i'm in seatle drinks are on me.
ba-bye.

=Omega=
Good luck in your new adventure! Tell the new guy/gal to get rid of those auto targeting systems people are using in PvP before they do anything else. You've evolved just as L2 has. DING!! It looks like your career has leveled up!!!

yeah, many of us play L2 for a long time lol <0

kk thx bye
peace out bot.

Who is the new producer?

agreed.
Thank you for all of your work for us.
I have hopes you bring your efforts to other parts there at NcWest and please, please make them give us a producer that loves the game we play :)
we all hope you can achieve your goals elsewhere, L2 has always been le, and i'm sure you know better than most.

although...
maybe before you go for good, could you explain to the dorfs why the skill Festive Sweeper was not implemented?
Thank You Omega *Passes BEERS :D Best of luck always!
help! help! its the titanic!!!!


omega: ok women and producers first....


:)
Wow, I honestly thought you left the team when Spam left, obviously many don't even know who you even are and what you do which kind of shows how great most of the L2 team is by hiding in the shadows.

Cya, but we've heard the "good things are in store for this game" before, more like "more of the same, but with less real players" ;)
Too bad you were the producer of the most botted game in existance.

Too bad you lied about EULA's to all the people that believed in you.

Too bad you proved that greed can overcome morals.

Too bad you made so many players never want to play a NC game ever again.

Rest with your failure.

You are a disgrace to the gaming community.

Good Ridence.
I don't think you understand the role of a producer in the game business. If you did, you would be praising his performance as that is a pretty good job description for a game producer.

But, I'm not bitter or anything.

2/10 - was a nice try, but really need to try harder next time.
Role of Producer (according to Wikipedia)


An internal producer is heavily involved in the development of, usually, a single game. Responsibilities for this position vary from company to company, but in general, the person in this position has the following duties:


Negotiating contracts, including licensing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/License) deals
Acting as a liaison between the development staff and the upper stakeholders (publisher or executive staff)
Developing and maintaining schedules and budgets
Overseeing creative (art and design (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_design)) and technical development (game programming (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_programming)) of the game
Ensuring timely delivery of deliverables (such as milestones (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milestone))
Scheduling timely quality assurance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quality_assurance) (testing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_tester))
Arranging for beta testing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_test) and focus groups (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focus_group), if applicable
Arranging for localization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalization_and_localization)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_producer

While as NC soft West is not responsible for pure game development but implementation of localization, events development and beta testing I would say no any reson to blame Omega for bots in game :)

Ok he could force, one who do events to attach anti bot/anti 3rd program utilities .. but in principle it is not his role :)

I would say, last event what never happen can be treated as fail ;)
Same as few evens (like infamous letters ) are not something to be proud.
Errors in translations, not working TW jewellery attribute defence...
But surly not that people bot :)

In general I can say Well done - with such big project small errors can always happen.
Good luck, whatever you going to do!
Thank you, good luck and bye :(
Best of luck to you.

Hope you will be given the golden ban hammer and can ban some bots. :D
Annnnnnd l2 suffers another blow. L2 has been a GREAT game in my opinion, I've enjoyed it at least. It "had" tons of potential... but it was never marketed enough and there has been so many cheaters. Past exploits, bots etc... with what it sounds like, it almost seems like if the servers were cleared of these violators 100% the game would be even more destroyed. Personally, if NC upped the infraction on rule violators, it would be good to see them actually tell people you've been caught and better stop like L2 Russian Offical and Aion. Allowing people warnings so the game does not lose players, but prevents inappropriate behavior.

Servers in fact do need to be merged despite what people may want. This is a player based game... and all servers seem pretty dead except for Teon. Private servers helped to ruin L2 also, there are many private servers that have a ridiculous amount of players... so I'm told! The whole Private server stuff though I don't feel is all NCSoft's fault, I just think some things could have been handled better.

Anyways, sucks to see you go Omega... the biggest name and most involved person since HGMSpam. I don't know if the people who leave development actually read replies once they've posted their farewells due to possible negative responses. I continue to run on hope that the game may possibly have a better future.

lol

Good luck Omega!
Good luck on your new post Omega :) I remember back a few PTS's ago where you partied us, buffed us, summoned awesome raid bosses in Gludio :eek: lol it was obvious that you enjoyed the game.

I also remember that we had very few events until you became producer, then we had at least 1 per month until recently :(

You will be missed. Hope we get a producer who cares like you did. :o
peace out bot.

Who is the new producer?


Flipsy....rofl
another one bits the dust .... *singing* :rolleyes:

ok who will be next? place your bets now! :D

Sace - has she been around a year yet? That is the usual life span of the CM's for L2.

Not saying that I want her to leave, just saying..
I hope whoever steps in ur shoes can fix few issiues that u left unfinished [or never bothered to fix] *cough*walker*cough*radar*cough*adenasellers*cough
I wish you luck, Omega.

I still remember the Omega's Revenge event... Good times.
Well, Omega is like a pillar for this game, you don't very know him, but you know he is here and it peacefull to know it.

You did your jeb well, I wish you (a) good luck in the future, m ay Eva be with you.

=Omega=

This is indeed sad news for us :(

Thanks for al the fun filled moments and memories (PTS RB rampage fun anyone :D Or drop gifts from the man himself in Giran town :D). I'm sure i'm not the only one when I say we will cherish them.

All the best of luck with which ever new project you will handle and all the best for life :) It was a pleasure having you in our community

Leya
All the best Omega, take care & have fun in w/e you do next.

ps, go out in style like tabbi suggested lol
good luck and work hard at ur new position
hugZ
Good luck to you Omega in your new job within NC.

To all those who have blasted Omega in this post, please do the rest of the community a favor and just quit playing/posting. Those of us who truly enjoy this game still don't want to hear it.
cya Omega have fun :)
Best of luck with whatever you're going to do next!

Aion maybe? I heard Spam finally wiped the bots and mergers are coming ;)
As Laby said, Omega has been a staple of this game for as long as I can remember. And I, for one, will be sorry to see him go.

Good luck, Omega. May health, wealth and happiness follow you wherever life takes you :).


@Frackenhosier - Stop being so hateful and just quit already!
I can only think of a Queen song atm.

GL Omega, wherever you go.

Definition of Omega, according to Wikipedia:

"Year or date of death...the end of death or even time. The name of the end."

Hopefully not of L2? ;)

HEHE !!! Yes ! :P + 1 ....



Btw gl Omeg... Have a good life:P
That is funniest thing i ever seen. Portrait ?
This picture seems to match the definition : "A likeness of a person, especially one showing the face, that is created by a painter or photographer, for example."
So yes, it's a portrait. Two portraits flicking in a GIF picture even.
The word you're looking for is self-portrait.

If said that i would be insulting poster (calling him a cry baby) and NC would cancel my post and give me warning.

Only people who love the game are able to insult other people and get no warning. Maybe even giggle and appaluse from NC

So if you legit player you must hate game (why would any legit player love a game full of Cheaters that NC tolerates and in many ways helps) and you must say no wrong against Cheaters that make a living at playing this game otherwise NC bring da hammer down.

Oh and thanks for Engrish grammer lesson :)
