Sace, nothing about new NA server?

~ Johns
Hey any chance with the new forum software and skinning that some of the profile options can be enabled or setup for say System specs (specific enough to input the specific components including windows and motherboard and video card and such) as this may be a benefit to someone posting on the forums about a problem and "hoping" they have spec list listed in their profile..

And maybe also enable options to include specific character details if we wish....

Just a though.. it's more of an interesting option.... rather then a necessity.

its 7 days from tomorrow until live GoD. they will take these 7 days to measure how many players are coming back before making plans for new servers. please, relax.
1) The store will be self-explanatory or is there a FAQ about using it? (i.e., time for delivery, restrictions, etc?)

2) Will we need to make any changes to our account profiles? (passwords, security info, etc?)

3) Forum logout fix= awesome

No, it won't be. The update to Goddess of Destruction doesn't take place until Nov. 30th. Tomorrow is just conversion from subscription based to free to play (plus the web site changes).

we dont want play in chronos or naia... we need a new NA server to begin from zero.
Thank you Sace :)
Edit : In this post you give PST times. In the other post, you give all but PST time. How could I do conversion please ?

Not yet. We will know more around launch time frame, as someone explained in this thread. :)

That will not happen with tomorrow's forum maintenance. Perhaps it will happen in the future if we open a dedicated staff- or player-run tech support section.

1) The store will be self-explanatory or is there a FAQ about using it? (i.e., time for delivery, restrictions, etc?)

I haven't seen a universal FAQ for the whole store yet, but I know we're going in to a lot of detail regarding the delivery and restriction of each item for sale. Hang on and see what it's like tomorrow, then we can write FAQs as needed. :)

2) Will we need to make any changes to our account profiles? (passwords, security info, etc?)

Nope, no need for changes.

/Agreed. And if for some reason it doesn't work, I'm sure you'll post in that thread quickly and let us know. :)

That is scheduled to open on November 30.

Edited the original post to add links to that time zone website.

PST is -8 hours from GMT, -2 hours from Central Standard Time (one Chronos is set to) and -3 hours from Eastern Standard Time.

I think you just implied I'm a forum ***** :eek:
well, she's right. she always is.
I'm pretty sure there will be a new server. Lot of people won't come to play with vets. My comeback depends on it too :s
Activated account without playing haha

Please don't let the new server idea go. Bring it on so we can shut private servers down and have some fair fun :P
Good news all around, glad to see a new website after all these years :p
4am? Quiet busy at the offices...

How much you want to bet they will have server transfers if they do open new servers. If that happens I can see many vets moving to the new server to take it over. :)

I am staying on Chronos now that I am in with a really good clan.

As for private servers, it will not stop them as they will always exist no matter what NCWest does. Not everybody likes Goddess or the grinding aspect of the game. Me? I have been playing here for seven years and I have no intentions of leaving anytime soon. :)
sure wish they would not tell us these things at the last minute.

I reactivated 1 account yesterday because I would need it for the double xp. owned.

Guess I can buy me some hats.

I want some hats xD and ****, what a badluck lol
Good news Thx Sace and welcome back.
Can we get half coins for half months? :P My 3+1 kicked in Nov 5 I believe. Just wanting to get all I can for the money I spend :D When you can measure your lifestyle by how many hours you work... for example I work ¾ hours to play Lineage II every month. Then I spend three hours to grind up 10%. Entertainment seems more like work these days.
Sounds great. I have to admit that I'd absolutely love to read/hear some sort of post-mortem on this whole transition (why, no, I'm not a Gamasutra junkie, why?). Looking forward to seeing all this work come to its fruition ^_^

most Vet's were around when that happened with Luna and we also remember the end result so erm as long as Naia/Chronos has more pvp activity then the new servers I don't think many will actually bother to repeat past mistakes :)

Well don't forget how many will transfer to farm the epics and re-transfer like it happened for soo long now.
all epics (new ones at least) are instanced so why would you do that these days ?
Great news, ty.
Imo, forum need more moderators, with f2p, when anyone can post here.
@Sace, will you guys put in new policy on posting behavior now that "everyone" will be able to post here to counter posts by ppl who do not play this game (NCWest version) and are not contributing to the player community ?

just asking as there has been a clear increase of random posts by users with a join date of Nov 2011 that are semi provocative of nature which ties back directly to the F2P & increased competition between NCWest & Innova and simply said doesn't belong here imo.
I foresee topics on RMT...

In anyway, Welcome Back, dear Sace...

I don't know how to say it but we've been missing you around!

These updates should stop the QQ for a while and put people into something...

New forum skin and fix and new website will be awesome! Thanks NCI for that.

Now, after this almost reached the bottom of the well, it is time to do something!
After all, while at the bottom, there's only one way to go, don't you all think?

Time to see if NCI can regain the trust of the old pals and snatch new ones...

Good luck for us all and for you, NCI and Sace.

I really hope the Dark Ages we have been through are begining to fade...

No forums in 30 minutes from now until late this night... No websites until when I'm about to leave work...

Oh well, it will be a really boring and anxious job day...
Good news all around, glad to see a new website after all these years :p

Hopefully it will be a complete update and not a partial one like the last update.
And also I wouldn't hold my breath that it will be fully updated or even accurate (if it is I will buy NC coins worth 20$)
