We sincerely apologize for the downtime and will keep you updated on the situation.

Thank you

Update 10am CST: We are still working on a fix.

Update 10:30am CST: Server is up but log in may be slow. We are still investigating.

Update 11:10am CST: We think we have found the source of the issue, and need to bring the server down again in order to fix it.

Update 12:05pm CST: We are still working on it. No ETA at the moment.

Update 12:30pm CST: We are nearing completion of our testing. If all goes well the server will be open very soon. Stay tuned.

Update 12:50pm CST: The server is up and the issue has been fixed. Have fun!
I hope you are fixing Lorain by Cruma Tower. She was missing all day yesterday.
And reverting back to old good PVP/PK system, not this stupid fame system where you have to farm 700+ mobs to clean your karma.

Moderator2 Is just some random kid posting **** acting like he is a GM or Admin. He has 2 post's we can only hope he keeps this up and they will IP ban him and not only he wont be able to post on forums but also banned in game.

Actually no, Moderator1/2/3/4 are what NCsoft use to test their new community managers. Why do you think he can post in the Announcement section and you cannot?

Also, Moderator1 just became official today as Juji.

Good answer :D
Dear, Admin.
when server can be ready to play?

but yea, some updates with general times would be nice

or russian ppl trying to make "GAME OVER" in L2

Here is: 13:33 PM and I can't play anyway, Now server shown Down.
ofc i can answer. bc tons of idiots trying to log in same time= server crash
or russian ppl trying to make "GAME OVER" in L2

-.-"then I'm Such of these Idiots, because I see the server ON, and wanna play haha,
Thank you anyway.
Does anyone knows if XP RUNE keeps going during maintenance ??

I hope not
what about just let the guys fix the problem and wait to inform us ? stop always turning a threads like this one into chat or something lol

So what server are you trying to log onto AveZ? :D

EU players should be playing on EU servers in the first place...and people wonder why there is so much crowding on this server.....
-.-"then I'm Such of these Idiots, because I see the server ON, and wanna play haha,
Thank you anyway.

all players want to play now. but this server crashes are good for now, why? kids will leave, i hope most of them will= more spots for exp, no more problems with quest monsters etc etc

"like wtf with karma system oO i made 10th char to play and im ****** or im just idiot"
i hope they will leave.
what about just let the guys fix the problem and wait to inform us ? stop always turning a threads like this one into chat or something lol

Totally agree with u
EU players should be playing on EU servers in the first place...and people wonder why there is so much crowding on this server.....

Yes because i'm gonna play on some ******ed russian server
So what server are you trying to log onto AveZ? :D
im not even trying to log. i'm waiting for info from admin or moderators.
Shilen just went up and this time I'm in... go go go!
Yes because i'm gonna play on some ******ed russian server

Yes you should, EU servers are for EU players. It makes more sense for you as far as distance with reference to the servers and it makes more sense for us because there wouldn't be an insane amount of crowding...taking all night to do one quest.
suck it up all of you and stop talking random ******** if you don`t like, you can leave no one keeps you with force, now be patient till they fix the problem.

No one said anything about leaving. It is perfectly ok to vent frustrations about a launch of an mmo...
think about change that system ok pk you take one pk even by mistake mean rr delete char..............
The real question: Why is Shilen the only server that needs special all day maintenance. The way the server is going up and down makes it seem like they don't really know what the problem is. So when in doubt just do trial and error until it works? It's also possible that they want some players to get frustrated enough to change servers.

If they don't know whats causing the issues how else do you suggest they try and get a fix?
moderators admin please info when start server
think about change that system ok pk you take one pk even by mistake mean rr delete char..............
not really

if your stupid enough to start pking like 30 minutes into the game, u deserve to remake ur character, i can burn 1000 karma quick in VoS, or FoD....
anyway i still don;t understand admins. Why they have problem to make topic: serwer problems and explain it, we tryung to find problem and dunno when serwer can be again stain minimum time is 5-10h follow this topic and w8 for more info.
we just know serwer was under maintenance for 40min = fake bc serwer is off around 5h
think about change that system ok pk you take one pk even by mistake mean rr delete char..............


+1 is stupid pk system I have friends who stopped playing because of that ... 700 mobs to take off the karma of 1 pk P_P illogical, would have to be like before ..
If they don't know whats causing the issues how else do you suggest they try and get a fix?

Hire a professional to maintain their servers.
It would be nice to know how far the staff is with fixing the problem and to know how much longer this is going to take !!!
Concerned user.
Why the hell i paid 200$ and cant play in server shilen?
Hire a professional to maintain their servers.

they should have a profesionist in these...ffs its lineage 2 official not some crapy private server.
Hire a professional to maintain their servers.

Expendable, they have professional system and network administrators as well as highly experienced programmers developing the backend systems in several different programming languages. Believe me when I say, it's not a simple process and even professionals use trial and error to solve problems. It's a part of the developmental and maintenance process, it's called debugging.

Please, don't make such arrogant remarks when you likely haven't much (if any) technical experience beyond the use of your click-and-go Windows-based machine.
Shilen UP!
People will think twice before PKing, and you need to be a moron to PK by mistake. That's what flag states are for. The game isn't and was never about PKing.

NCSoft is hiring proffesionals. Probably more than one, and probably smarter then You. If You don't know what the problem is, why do You act like You know best?

Have patiance. It's not like You need to play right now.

Plausible, but it is madness.:rolleyes:
inform please when the server will be available.
We should know...
Where do you see Shilen UP? :/
About the PK system, it TOTALLY SUCKS. It just deserves to be removed, 'cause it REALLY sucks. A friend pkpped three guys and got more than 2k reputation to lift, and he quitted server. If they won't fix this PK system, more and more people, just like my friend did, will quit.

I like the new system with karma, it makes you think twice before doing it
Hope this will fix everythink because alot more not official servers are more stable with better gameplay.

But anyway , this is official server = support = happy players :D

Why only Shilen have those problems btw ?

Finaly logged in and after trying delete char with 100+PK poitns (also with 999999 (+) karma) i get disconnected. :(

First fix it and then turn it ON!
DDOS only at MYM Dota @ Razer Global Challenge haha
This is somewhat normal for servers, it is possible there was a glitch within the copy of the game that once I character speed leveled to that location and did that exact action that caused the whole server to become unstable then we have a complete lock out. Reason why it looks up but is not is they are investigating what actions were taken before the crash. It is not an easy process... so sit back be patient, and hey if you dun like it there is always delete your character and move on to another server.

server is down. cant delete anything. just go ahead and move along?
Just like your friend,the pker?Ok,bb then.
You don't understand, PK is a part of the game which CAN'T be ****** this way. Don't you understand? What if you want to farm a spot and someone wants to? Let's assume you flag on him and he doesn't react, the guy who will keep the spot will be the fastest one, 'cause you can't PK. Let's assume a clan is camping an epic boss and many randoms go there also, clan can't PK randoms 'cause it'll be impossible to dekarm. Let's assume you're hitting an almost deflagged guy (blinking mode) and he deflags and you get PK, you're ******? Let's assume you want to kill a raid boss and another party wants to, you flag on the other party but it doesn't react. What will you do? This are only few of the thousand reasons why this new PK system TOTALLY SUCKS.
still can not enter to shilen, i see "light" but i'dont advance to select my character.
I dont understand why any Moderator says anything :S, plz Admin, Moderator Some1 inform us of the situation.
I just give up... Trying to connect dont help to fix it faster.

Ill take 2hrs break and just can hope after that time everythink will be alright.
finally i log in after 15 mim 5 mim for char select and 10 for enter the world

I agree that new "reputation" system isnt so good. PK was and everytime will be part of game.
700+ mobs to get reputation back to zero is insane.

I agree with the farming spots,but i dont think,e.g. your friend pked 3 ppl because of this.
First of all, thanks Moderator2 of informing us!
Second... don't you understand guys that the flow of "I want to enter as fast as possible" players is really huge so it's normal even NCSoft's computers crash...
And third for the "I hate new pvp/pk system" players - this system is pretty good and I appreciate it! That should be 1 really good-working battle system - who make pk take the responsibility of killing someone without any equality! That will prevent low-grade zones from high-grade players with the complex "of being the great!". About the others with the stand "Who annoy me I will pk him!" - well since you boast that you are so strong ti kill this "annoying person" with pk, take in mind that you should be as strong later when he return with more people.
now really Shilen is UP!!!!!
I agree with the farming spots,but i dont think,e.g. your friend pked 3 ppl because of this.
He killed three people (pkpping) with my help (I was lvl. 61, they were lvl 40-45 guys), 'cause they were hitting him/ksing him for more than 30 minutes. I just limited myself to heal my friend and he did the rest, pkpping. He found out just later what that pkpping meant. Btw if they don't fix this system, they will see the results. 100% sure about this
Now error 660 wtf xD
now really Shilen is UP!!!!!

no server isn't up.......
not at all, i was stuck on server selection screen for 10 minutes, now im stuck on character selection for more then 15 minutes.
check this while you stay and watch **** and ENABLE SOUNDS
its awesome =D http://shilen.kaifas.lt/

lol nice :)
now the server is DOWN again :p
lol nice :)

well im in game ... so yea server is up ... but is hard to login also SS and npc are not working ... some lags .
now the server is DOWN again :p
server is up and 900 ppl online
First of all, who gives you the right to pk people that want to go to kill a boss, or farm at some spot. I didn't see Your name tagged on it.

There were always clans all about epics, that didn't let others to get them, just for supremacy over the server, people who just pked anyone to get close to their spot.

And that **** is OVER, couse anyone can kill a boss, anyone can farm epics, anyone can farm at any spot they want.

This adds balance and this makes sense. Get over it.

If you still want to whine about it, go make a topic for it.
Listen up, the reason why the server is goind up and down is beacause they fix many things that require restart of the server, so be patient because they are fixing things.I`ve got an info that after this is done we gonna have an Announcement with the updates.
Any new news on the server Shilen? We look forward Agard...
lol 900 players ON = Heavy Server :S WTF is happening :S
I get to server selection and then nothing.. Any Ideas?
I see it On, Heavy, but i cant pass this screen, it not happend with another server :(
lol 900 players ON = Heavy Server :S WTF is happening :S

Gm's count for 1000
Maybe they are letting only a portion of players in to test something.

That would also add sense to test and fix things on a playable server instead of a test one. Just becouse people dont get on a test server with such intensity.

My bet is that they are working on login servers stability.

Mark my words.

this is global server and server is down up lagg............ private server is godly work.....

i wonder if pepls actualy read the patch notes about the changes

Clearly they don't, but I don't know if the patch notes are accurate anyhow. Example, if you go to new quests, all the quests that say "daily" appear to be one time, because they don't work more than once. Unless that is yet another bug; either way, the notes were either translated wrong, or it's a bug. Bad on NCsoft either way.
i wonder if pepls actualy read the patch notes about the changes

yeah, because we all remember every single change from patch notes posted MONTHS ago
lies....

no he is right, server back on in one hour... go watch a serie or smth! ill go take a big shower, cuz im an orc and i need it! :)
lies....

I wrote when gm said it INgame i didn`t made that up!
Now server is down :/

Or when you starte Daily quest at 60 you had 3 quest wich to chose, not to make all of them. I honestly have the same problem i want to make the others too but i can`t >.<
Thanks for the news, me and a lot of players are waiting for the server! :D
It's awesome that someone is working with the issue. It should be up soon, I guess.
i'm waiting for oficial info
no he is right, server back on in one hour... go watch a serie or smth! ill go take a big shower, cuz im an orc and i need it! :)

me too
en shilen server tengo problemas para entrar se deve a algun mantenimiento o es mi cuenta?


YOU SIR, are totally right... just did'nt know what you were sayin;

And now I'm getting game guard errors for the first time, when I try to load a client, gfg.
I dont undrstand why only Shilen server have problem and why there is no fresh info from moderators
where the hell you get this informations?

Look at the first page of this thread ;)) GM's informing us about the situation, but no one see this.. PPL ! Wake Up! and read GM notes, not player notes!

btw. Who work with computer's and servers know there is always unexpected problems, when doing something under time pressure :)

So I understand their :)) We have to wait
I dont undrstand why only Shilen server have problem and why there is no fresh info from moderators
I guess is because there's too many players kkk

I dunno, the Shilen server was with "Heavy" status, a few hours after launch kkk
Server: On
Server: On

Seems like it's ok now...fast to login and SS/BSS are working right now
Server is online!!!
See? it doesn't hurt to wait a little =)
Seems like it's ok now...fast to login and SS/BSS are working right now

Update 11:10am CST: We think we have found the source of the issue, and need to bring the server down again in order to fix it.

Update 12:05pm CST: We are still working on it. No ETA at the moment.

Update 12:30pm CST: We are nearing completion of our testing. If all goes well the server will be open very soon. Stay tuned.

.. for lazy ppl
First of all, who gives you the right to pk people that want to go to kill a boss, or farm at some spot. I didn't see Your name tagged on it.

There were always clans all about epics, that didn't let others to get them, just for supremacy over the server, people who just pked anyone to get close to their spot.

And that **** is OVER, couse anyone can kill a boss, anyone can farm epics, anyone can farm at any spot they want.

This adds balance and this makes sense. Get over it.

wtf lol.. so you're saying that KS is probably better?! as someone already said the old pk system is the core that makes L2 different from other MMO's. Pk leads to PVP.. this is a pure PVP game.. even on PVE you will probably need to PVP.. A clan has more ppl and owns server and pk all?! so what? join small clans and make a big one in order to handle massive pvp..


And third for the "I hate new pvp/pk system" players - this system is pretty good and I appreciate it! That should be 1 really good-working battle system - who make pk take the responsibility of killing someone without any equality! That will prevent low-grade zones from high-grade players with the complex "of being the great!". About the others with the stand "Who annoy me I will pk him!" - well since you boast that you are so strong ti kill this "annoying person" with pk, take in mind that you should be as strong later when he return with more people.

lol so what? that was the fun part of the game! a naab came higher lvl than you and killed you.. so what? write is nick down and ensure yourself that in a l8r future u go and pk him! that's a movitational factor so you lvl up faster! the problem is that ppl only whine about things. what about in high lvl? is that also considerated non-equal? bleh..

Sorry for the non-topic related post.

p.s. server up..
Well, since no one else has bothered to say this...

I'd like to thank the people involved in resolving the matter and getting the server back online. Additionally, I'd like to thank the forum moderator for keeping us informed. Although quicker and more-frequent updates would be appreciated, I'm grateful that we got official updates on the matter.

Thanks

i take it ur one of those guys who loves killing lowbies...

how would u feel if u worked almost all day,had 1 hour to play,you go farm,and immediately get pked.. you go try to farm again,and get pked again.. then what? shout in town for the next 30 mins about a pker that does not let u lvl? 45 minutes go by and you still have'nt found anyone to help out,you get tired and try to farm else where, but hey guess what,theres another pker there claiming that spot..

now what? play another hour or go to sleep cuz u gotta work tomorrow?

not everyone has the freedom as others to play all day..
i don't log in shilen, "Due to high server traffic, your login attempt has failed. Please try again soon". I'm tired of Shilen. if it continues, i will go to magmeld :S
i cannot log in shilen, "Due to high server traffic, your login attempt has failed. Please try again soon"..me to the same problem but i will be patient i like this server :D:)
About the PK system, it TOTALLY SUCKS. It just deserves to be removed, 'cause it REALLY sucks. A friend pkpped three guys and got more than 2k reputation to lift, and he quitted server. If they won't fix this PK system, more and more people, just like my friend did, will quit.

Sounds good to me, my daily quests will be less crowded. lol :)

you take it wrong than.. never did, never will.
you have a nice point of view there. It can be hard for ppl that has few playtime to spend but.. Although I believe I can call what you discribed a very unlucky situation lol..

btw, not intending to offend you in any way but if you only have 1 hour to spend playing L2 i'd say you're playing the wrong game unless your final purpose is to grind..

To all of you guys who dont like dual boxing.

I party when I want to & solo with my boxes when I want also.

Shilen server just crashed :O

Server is down yet again.

You really do have no idea!! Iv played solo all the way to 86. Not becuase i have a lack of socail skills but my dedication to the game when server population were low. This was because nearly all of you were being cheap skates running around on free illegal servers as you couldnt even pay or show appreciation to the company that created such a great game that you spend so much time playing!

Thats the way a lot of us had to go in the times of low server population. We paid for our subscription to get that privilege and we should continue to get that privilege as that is the way we enjoyed and played the game
how do i get rid of the gamegurd thing i cant log in :mad:

Edit: nevermind, your not worth my time.
same story...

''whos that guy behind you'' my brother
''triple box?'' no, is my cousin and my brother ''why are they just following you?'' ''because theyre so noobs theyre learning the game''

when the chars are moving is totally different if theres a family of 4 guys and you see them making a party and going together and living chars is fine but when is just running behind you, is considered 1 guy taking 4 slots, when those 3 slots could be for another two people

ncsoft isnt taking consideration anything, they could careless about if you dual box or not, you were paying for extra account isnt a cause they were saying ''oh poor family of 4 lets let them play together''

the easiest way for resolve something like that about having multiple people with same ip is just that, let dual box but is annoying just seeing the log in screen with ''high traffic try later'' and when i finally get in i see a guy with two chars following him i just do /facepalm
so is Shilen being under maintenance the reason why ive gotten due to high server traffic log in has failed.please try again later ever since i tried logging in today

yesterday it worked fine,could log in fine for half the day.today,ever since i tried logging in thats all ive got.kinda sucks if this is a normal thing now,because im already kinda unhappy that they changed the way exp works now in Lineage 2 and questing is the way to go now,i liked grinding on mobs better because it feels like 3/4 the time i have no clue where the hell to go to get the quests

Epic Fail & Pure Ownage, how often you get those ?
ncsoft isnt taking consideration anything, they could careless about if you dual box or not.

Then we are done, you play your way & I will play my way.

You are just helping the people who do box, to box some more.
They wont pick you for a party over their alt, hell I know I wouldn't.
Their alt wont give them an attitude.
Crashed again.. I want to sell my SS omgomg...
