How many login attempts? Post your best score!!

General Discussion Started Last reply 95 posts
My record at the moment is 45, but I might break it in the next 5 mins....
The only problem is with Naia and of course it's fault of ncwest.More europeans playing this game than americans,obviously ppl dont want to go to innova so naia suffers as its the only one gtm +1 server.

Back on topic,u really dont want to hear about my record i act like a lunnatic pressing the buttons on the keyboard :P
Well .. i try on NAIA of course because i am from europe, and all my friends play there.Let's say i type my password and try login in 10 seconds .. if i'm slow .... last time i tried literally 30minutes non-stop before i gave up .. that's surely more than 180 attempts.
I've gone far beyond breaking my first record.....

301 attempts and just stopped trying.

I'll try again tomorrow, maybe.

In the meanwhile I'll play a bit on the 20x private server. Which is more or
less the same exp rate we have on the official server these days. Even
slower, when vitality goes to zero.
i finally found the use of my nostromo after GoD. psw writing and enter spamming macro saves my hands and keyboard, though must watch all the time at screen how it is spamming, cause after i login if not turn off it will spam my psw in chat :>


if not that, it could have ended like this long time ago

127th attempt 12min non stop typing my psw... Still not IG



I'ma out, better play skyrim before I destroy my computer
123 attempts.
203 trys and i quit trying
1h and still trying
My top number of times is to log in is 20.
I dont count, but i spam my pw during 30min, then stop 10min, then back again for more 30min.. then quit.
It as been this way during to much days, im really almost quitting this ****.
L2 is a amazing game, its the game i wanna play and with my chars created in 2006 in Teon.

I work all day, get home to play a little and its impossible befor 22-23h (gmt+0). At weekends is even worse.

My daughter only plays at weekends, she was able to logg in the morning, then get disconnect and it was impossible to return untill now.....

nice1 :D

88 already more then my lvl :rolleyes:
hmm they should add counter at login screen, "U failed xxx times try harder!"
at xxxx attempts "omg U still here go eat smth, U was trying to log for x hours, U should consider taking a break in login".
what a wonder that the server is full. look at naia in gludio 2m near the GK, 50 bots at 1 spot and 2 who drop adena without end....
but for that nc did the present next week, so maybe just 60% players hate them :mad:
+12 so far today

I have no idea how many times I've tried. I just use macros anymore.
About 80 times, I guess.
I usually give up after 5-10 attempts... :D
My record is 1. I get in on the 1st try everytime. Oh wait, you were talking about the official servers.

Oh, how edgy talking about private servers. You must be a bad ***.
Well I need to do this on Naia though because Chronos hasn't been that full... you know, shots don't work and all...

Tomorrow I might give it a try but last time I counted when Chronos was full, it was 30 tries before I managed to log in. Typing manually every time. 120 words per minute help in that sense... :D
..I rarely have any issues logging in, out of the last week of play I've been told to try again maybe twice. Then again I'm in PST and I'm not awake at 6am when most of you guys are spamming login attempts.
Oh, how edgy talking about private servers. You must be a bad ***.


Why, you want some names? ^^
Pm me anytime!!

Edgy, sarcastic, **** and you know it. rofl!! :) I am one mean motors******.

wow, you can't say SC-O-O-TER? Wow, Even 3rd rate, 3rd grade American slang is a no no. it just gets funnier and funnier every post.

Remove the "S".
Remove the "S".

I was refering to cooooooooooter. cooooooooooooter. motorscoooooooooter. You know coooooooooter was a guy who kept helping the Duke boys dodge Boss Hoooooooog (just in case hooooooooog was also a bad word :P) and his fluuuuuuuuunkey Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane. IF seeeeeeeexy was a bad word, too, let's make Daaaaaaaisy Duuuuuuuuuuukes one, too.

None the less, L2 is trying miserably to compete with private servers and the MMOs coming around the corner with their flashy animations and audio, attempting to capture the short attention span of youth today. If they kept it P2P while GoD runs it's course, it would probably do pretty well. But, alas, we will never know.
My record so far is trying to login non-stop for 4 hours make the calculation...

everyday i find high traffic or i crash during a pr or when enemys rush,today im trying to log for over 1.5hours

event is over,since high traffic is still on,Ncwest was is doind to solve this?
Luckily the number of players on Naia drops at 2300 GMT+1 so i have some time to play before bed. I just got myself a mentor and have 2 friends on Naia otherwise I would move to Magmeld right away. I might move there anyway but I would like to lvl up a little higher with this new cool 200% exp from mentor =]
During the day if I want to play I tried a few times 5 minutes continous attempts at logging in. 1 attempt every 7-10 sec. Sometimes I'm lucky, if not I go play LoL.
i finally found the use of my nostromo after GoD. psw writing and enter spamming macro saves my hands and keyboard, though must watch all the time at screen how it is spamming, cause after i login if not turn off it will spam my psw in chat :>

I LOL'd................
best was 3
sometimes take me 5 or 30
Only counted once which was yesterday when I got dc, took 88 attempts.
Usually I log on early in the day then it usually works on first try and stay online until I go to sleep.
NC should start give us XP for each try accordingly to killing mob of our top lvl char on the acc :D really, my "best" result is 30 mins nonstop attempts - I could get 50% of the level
I should get a statue for player who spent more time trying to login... 2hours.
My lucky number was 213 one day.
I try to count every day how many times to post it here. Every time i lost count...
Somehow magically i always manage to log...during siege on naia it took me about 15 mins, in evenings 3-5 mins so far.


hmm they should add counter at login screen, "U failed xxx times try harder!"
at xxxx attempts "omg U still here go eat smth, U was trying to log for x hours, U should consider taking a break in login".

:D:D:D
301 attempts and just stopped trying.

Didn't count the # of attempts, but I type rather fast & blind...

Last weekend I got lucky and was able to logon on Naia in 40 minutes :p
we had best siege video ever frapser frapsing his login attempts
Ask NCsoft for create another statue in towns for most insisted player to log :)
omg you guys are nuts!! more than 80tries???!!!

I give up trying to log in after 10 tries :D
Can someone tell us, if you create a new account, do you have the option to choose Naia server for character creation and play?

If yes, then no transfer or anything will save us, from that miserable crap, of not be able to log in.

Lock down subscriptions to Naia & Chronos!
This might be a copy of Silkroad Online's problem with bots. Many people left, so if NCSOFT wants to keep players here, they better act quickly.
I've never had a problem logging in.

This has ben going on for 7+ years, some years less bots than others, but L2 still kept going even though it was pay to play; plus Silkroad is still online as well even though I have never tried it.

If NC was the least bit concerned about their game they would have done something a long time ago. As long as they are making money that is all they care about, they are trying to run a business after all and money is what really matters to them. :)
I've never had a problem logging in.

You showed up too late. You missed the F2P zerg.
I've never had a problem logging in.

And without your auto-log bot ? (sarcasm inside)

Trying since 30mn to log on NAIA. GF NCTards. Hopefully Tera will be online soon (even if NCTards try to prevent the launch).
As long as they are making money that is all they care about, they are trying to run a business after all and money is what really matters to them. :)

yeah that's why it helps their bottom line to have Naia un reachable between 16pm & 24pm GMT+1 cause they don't want any player be able to login with a job cause omy they might actually buy some NC coins with their money.
Yeah the fact is their incredible lack of communication let us thinks that they don't care... EVERYTIME pp are raging against them is because of the lack of communication. 7 years laters, still the same problem. How the *** pp never learn ? So, we want to know :

- are you doing / planning something about logon pb on NAIA
- when ?
- do you actually care ?
Uhm i was okay at first with this full server thingy...i was thinking as long i am not the only with login issue. But i had enough. Basicly if you are working person u cant play pretty much. So i am signing out. Ty l2 for all these years. Time to play something else!

Cya All!
Even though I have a mentor on Naia I'm getting more tempted to move to Magmeld during the next maintenance. At least there it's possible to log in and do daily quests.
last saturday 2 hours might be arround 70 trys (and than i stopped trying) i have 2 chars with xp scrolls active atm, i want my money back that is fraud of NC on us players!
i will quit lineage finally now, i feel so badly treated as a costumer i think they really dont care about us europeans, so i wont care in future about all games hosted and released in korea. thx nc soft
I think the XP scrolls are active while farming. If you log out or don't farm, they don't consume any XP...
Tried to play just now, on Sunday evening. Out of 3 hours, spent playing maybe 35 min total, and wasted the rest of this time logging in in between of a few disconnections.

The longest try took 35 minutes of non-stop typing. That's more than 300 login attempts in a row, since I do 9 attempts per minute. Fingers seem a bit hurt after typing this much. :o

In total, 140 minutes of trying to login means that I did 1260 attempts, typed in 18900 symbols and clicked mouse 3780 times.

That's the Lineage2 grind now, as of GoD: grinding at the login screen!
My fingers hurt from typing... On the bright side I have been able to make my overall game settings optimal to the login screen!
My record is still 1. 1 everytime, all of the time. I had a great TW today. The siege went wonderful. Oh sure, I had to sacrifice not play GoD anymore but considering the alternative (bugs, bots, overpopulation, m******s) it's a good trade off. I come back here for a good laugh after looking at silly cat pictures. You all have a good time trying to log in. I will go back to my server. ciao!

BOTs are the reason the game went dead when it was P2P

BOTs are the reason the game will die out again
CONTINE SPAMM FORUM AnD PETITION NC SOFT SUPPORT SITE FOR LOGIN ISSUE.
STOP BUY ANY ITEM FROM COIN TILL THE FIX LOGIN:
ASK EVRYONE COMPENATION EVRYTIME ARE UNABLE TO LOGIn



QUIT ANY NC SOFT GAME FOREVER if not FIX the server. DONT GIVE THEM MONEY AGAIN!!!!!!!!
Yeah, WestL2 shall do something, this is boring, but rising more servers is not a solution, they shall remove mentoring system and instead of this to use Bartz model on all servers.
634 attempts still no luck, this is so fu.ck up :mad::mad::mad:mad:




Gm's do you fu.ck job, or pass it on to some
634 attempts still no luck, ...

Don't be mad, I successful got logged after 10 or something I moved to the Auction NPC and BUMP "You have been disconnected from the server"

I seen a lot people happy to see me log (they always like the leader bonus buff), now they probably wonder why I disappear after 1 minute!

There are not even enough servers for all the people, and timezone poll pretty show there is a LOT EU players around since the Innova suck a lot with emptiness and lag spikes in areas where the only active thing you see it is yourself!
there is enough servers
the problem is that the majority make chars on already high populated servers like chronos and naia
35 minutes continously. Don't ask me to guesstimate how many logins that is, but its a lot.
2 hours, few minutes more or less.. CONTINUOUSLY. I am quite sure I own the top of log in attempts along with the infinite patience one. I Guess I continued to type in my pass on and on simply because I refused to believe the next time wouldn't work. I mean.... how long could it take?? Apparently, sometimes... 2 hours .
Ah well my pass is long and complicated, did type it wrong few times too. The horror
Dont worry guys, NC Soft are working "Diligently" to fix it, it will be ok.

I agree with Aconyte though on login being the new L2 grind!

Why not allow Mentees to gain double xp and buffs from having a mentor without the mentor needing to be online and the same rule applying the other way with the mentee xp boost for the Mentor. This would save the servers being FULL of afk people. At least do this until you can think of something better, rather than doing nothing and enraging the players trying to play your game.

NC use your heads guys, your feet are for dancin....

And winged faeries carrying candy cane wands will fill the air with peppermint fragrances and good tidings to everybody.. then takes their wands and knock on the head to bring you back into the real world. :D
My CP is trying to log since 1 hour :)

JUST START CARE ABOUT ***ING BOTS AND THERE WON`T BE ANY PROBLEM !
Tried to login for 45 minutes at about a login every 10-15 seconds.
634 attempts still no luck, this is so [Prudent Censorship] up :mad::mad::mad:mad:




[Prudent Censorship]


634 attempts!? I challenge you all to do better!!! >.<

Pity your post will probably be censored and you'll be given infraction points.

I'm quoting you with some minor censoring, so that your record wont go lost. ^^

You DO know about server times, right? I mean the alignment of events' time with the GMT.

European player base is mostly around GMT+1. How could an european player afford to stay up at 3am to do a siege or anything else that has a specific time schedule bound up with US' GMT?

And what about who already had an end-game character in Naia before L2 got f2p? Not a small group, this one.

You dont know!?

There's no need to click anything, to log in.

Type your User ID, Tab to move to the password field, type your password and hit Enter until you're in-game.

If it says your attempt to connect failed, just type your password again and hit Enter-Enter-Enter-etc-etc....

No clicks needed, to log-in.

Otherwise I would've not lasted 301 attempts!! I would've given up much earlier!!! >.<


Just to let you people know, I think that's been my very last attempt to play here. Since then I've been playing on another server, one that works as described in the homepage. =p
Ok, people, I've been missing from this thread for a bit, now.

I think it's a good moment to remind you every harsh post may bring this thread closer to its end by the hands of moderators.

This is getting truly ridiculous. Wanted to log in to craft some SS for a friend - at 1PM EST on a Monday - and it took me 30 attempts.

What will it take for NCsoft to actually do something about this? Or is it going to remain like this forever?
After 50+ tries of login attempts, installed l2 innova. Free, no bots, easy to login, no red weapons. For now, is perfect.
I spend 1.5 hour to log in game last friday. After this tries I decide to stop playing L2 until this login issue will be resolved.
LF Queue system. Typing password 100500 times to log in is very annoying.
nice1 :D

88 already more then my lvl :rolleyes:

The chances of a login are directly related to the amount of vitality your characters have and the amount of cash you spend at the NCshop ;)

(for the hard of thinking: this is a joke - but then, so is the server at the moment).

Nostromo macro:-
password
Enter
wait 1 sec
Enter
wait 1 sec
Enter
Repeat from the top infinitely

I do this but without the loop and just keep pressing the button. I have enough RSI without NC adding to it.

why I need to make some scripts for programmable devices(mice, keyboards) instead of typing login/password one time? I dont have desire to find alternative ways to log in.
No macro, no nothing.. usually I get in before 5th attempt. :)
Have this ingame friend,,who plays extremely casualy, like once per week. And he always logs in at prime time, when servers are full since Tersis event. He logins on TS, casualy logs in at first try ingame everytime and doesn't even realize servers are full, and i take forever to log, i just stop logging.:(
I bet "they" are reading this, but they just doesnt care. If they did they would think before adding events like this.
One usually learn from mistakes, usually.
I always get it on the first go :3
<rant>
making a highscore list out of this **** is really sad.
implement a queue FFS OR return to server selection instead of login screen when a server is on high traffic OR add an option to remind the password.

is it really that hard?

why am i still playing this game ...
pls stop starting these crappy farm events which have no use and benefit at all, OR replace the monkey that is scanning for bots on the servers by a real human and give him the authority to push the ban button more than once an hour.

TY

why am i posting this at all, NC has ignored the comminty for 8 years ... why do i believe they would start listening now.
i wish there was an adequate alternative to l2 on the mmo market and not only all those singleplayer wanna be multiplayer games.
</rant>
500+times trying, wasted 30min~

*** Botters!
3 hours now and i cant log in. So no more nccoin in my character. Bad company = 0 money from their customer.
I've been getting in after a couple dozen attempts in rapid fire. Considering my Missile Launch Code of a password it's no easy feat!
I have a ten character code, I know the first 5 characters and my spouse knows the last five. You can only image the fun we are having.
Ok, so I spammed my password for a loong time and I got completely p!ssed off. I had been logged in earlier in order to avoid that situation, but oh well...
We need someone who can take care of the god**** bots in the game.
...or increase the server population limit. But somehow I don't really think ANY of those things are going to happen.
It's ridiculous.

Dear L2 Team, please hear our feedback.

We are, as always, pleased to hear and collect your feedback about the game and what you want to see in the future, so please join us on the forums (http://boards.lineage2.com/index.php) for discussions.

Dear L2 Team, please hear our feedback.

They are pleased to hear and collect, they did. Noone said they are also pleased to do something about it :).
...or increase the server population limit.

thats what they did and the result is horrible.
any attempts to grant more people acess to the server fails if you do not deal with the unlegitimate accounts that are swarming any **** edge in the game.

i log in and get 5 pms immediately about how cool adena buying is and thats its only 10$ for 100m. character creatation lock is nice but the spamers and botters are already created guys...

so finally do what you should have done 8 years ago: ban the rule violators once and for all (even though this will result in Light populated servers...)

you think you would lose the majority of the community if you do so but thats wrong the players use cheats/bots because nobody is ever punishing them, hell i know a bunch of russians that think their 3rd party software are official game plugins (no joke) and download their clients from their clan homepages fully bundled with radar/bot software.
I always stop after about 10 tries. I have other ways to spend my time...and money...thankfully.
