I know that there are some problems that resulted from the recent merge, but so far the Merge absoluely rocks. I haven't had this much fun in game... ever! It's constant pvp, "old HS" type of areas are back, and I still manage to find a decent xp spot easily (cos everyone is pvp'ing :D). The fact that there are no castles, chs and heroes is also pretty cool - hero skils do heavily influence the fight, and the way it is now I even see smaller clans running around picking off key classes of bigger clans in mass fights quite sucessfully. Even the lag (outside Giran, haha) is bearable/comprable to what it was before.
I know this won't last, but for the time being it's amazing, and I know a lot of people feel that way, but are too busy pvp'ing to come and post about it. Thanks for doing something crazy and merging 5 servers - best decision ever!
To all the complainers: For the first time in a while we have a GM team that actually bans bots (not saying they ban ALL of them, but I only rarely see bot trains anymore), tries to organize events that please us (ewd anyone??! no thanks!) and tries to communicate with us. The last part seems to be sucessful and unsucessful on a case to case basis, but at least they try. When was the last time NCwest did that?! And you know what? I'm too busy to care about TW badges atm: too much pvp @@!! LOVE IT.
(PS: still think you should restore badges.. the ch process is fine imo though)

Nothing wrong at all about the number of people on the servers. I remember back in the day (around C2ish) of tons of ppl every where. TOI was a rocking place to be and so was Cruma. Then came the bots and then C3 came and the population declined. It's great to have OB numbers again for a little while before the game dies.
I joined L2 for the promised PVP aspects and was really disappointed when I didn’t find any PVP and came this close to leaving *puts fingers close together*. However, now that this merge has happened I am getting PVP all the time and am so happy that I have kept playing! I may not win all of the time, but hey, it is fun anyway :)
yeah, I see ppl returning and this is nice, but there is no shift in NCNA attitude so it will only last a month more, or perhaps two. Ppl are now like a reunion after many years, play a bit of basketball or tennis to remember the times when were young and passionate, but then everybody goes back to their houses and this will remain like a photo in a frame.
We need new ppl and they:
1. Wont come because everyone knows how the cheaters destroyed the game and continue to do it;
2. Wont stay long, after 6 months to level 85/80/80/80 and top clans and raids, and then back to CS or Medal of Honour, whatever...

Wait, I missed the bit how its possible to do that in 6 months :D
Its taken me years and years to even get my main to 80, never mind subs :p
Really good xp ptys =x
Idk if being maxed out legitally in 6month is possible. but I'll have only played a year at the end of oct.
one one account im 80/76/56 with another 75 almost 76 toon on it, and a few 5x alts.
one another account im 75/77/4x with some 5x and 4x alts.
if you just focus on one toon for sure you could do atleast 80/80 in 6months but idk it would depend how much you played and how well you could take avantage of the event when they had them. I have school and work so sometimes I was lucki if i could do 2 hrs ago or even 1.
hm... well I never liked pvp. My only happiness it to kill mobs for hours and hope for a drop.
Me too unfortunatly I haven't seen happiness for about 15 levels now.

I am too only level 80, but i dont actually level, i have vita 4 most of the time, just going on when clannies need me, however, bots did 80-85 in a few weeks, it all depends on how well you know the game and script your party according to best location, best setup, high level main and low level support etc. For most of them it is hard to get best party, but a really Pr0 one had no issues in sparcely populated servers as there was not PK for place or they know to choose realy well locations.
