Death of lineage 2, why all talk about it?

General Discussion Started Last reply 30 posts
I've noticed that more than half of players on the forum and in game, more and more talk on the topic of death of the great MMORPG. Players say that project will close in a year or two, others say l2 will close when the second chapter of the Goddess of Destruction came ... Where is the truth, managers, community administrators, GMs. Tell me are there any plans that will close the la2, if so when ...
Lineage2 will close when it stops making money and that wont happen anytime soon.

This is the only thing that can kill a mmo. No1 is re-tarded enouth to close something that brings profit.
remove dualbox

good idea, with dualbox we take too many spots from bots, they need more spots...
lol...
remove dualbox

Remove anyone who registered Nov 2011 or later.
I havent seen anyone say that.

This. All the randoms go back to your priv servers please and leave L2 for the old school people, kkthxbai

Do that and this happens


Lineage2 will close when it stops making money


Since half newcomers are "privater server donaters"

And some come from server were they donate like for 1 weapon that could last for 1y official account easy and it would still be some spare money
we do not understand it


There are several problems:

Many bots playing
Great Lag when there are plenty of PJ near (example: last Sunday Schutgard siege. It was a pity)
People that login multiple accounts at the same time
people are upset

NCSoft..... why not say something?
are you doing something?
ppl cry that the game is dead since C3 which was like 5-6 years ago
My opnion why this is true?

Destruction EWR for $$ and going to +15: c'mom people can pay to make R weapons +15 (seens like private servers where all people wanted was money, and game got realllyyy unbalanced, so no pay, no gain).

XP Runes for $$: not as important as DEWR but can really make a diference c'mom there are people playing with +50% xp no stop, dont try to tell me this is not an impact on gameplay.

Bots: this has been a pain in the *** since always but now... with free accounts its 10 times worst people are even botting to get event itens, because, well beucase they just can.

Server overflow/log in issues: kinda rellated dont you think? hard to find free spots to farm, hard to log in almost all the time (chronos) and to make it complete some @#$%¨&%$¨%$ keeps suggesting to increase server population from 5k or 6k to 10k, STOP SAYING THIS, WHAT'S THE POINT IN LOGGING IN, IF EVERYTHING IS JUST FULL?? unless you are lv 99 full gear and just need to kill war enemies

Loged in time prizes: kinda related to the one above, before you got vit from logging out, now you get mentee coins for keeping logged in, and since most mentees are lazy SOB that will kick you just for a disconnect since they have no penalty, you really have to be 24/7

Time Zone Changes: This is the newest one, i can go with the change for new servers but in Chronos and Naia? why? they were NA like always, and now change? (just so you know i'm brasilian and i still think time zone should remain NA)

Free transfers limitations: lets open free transfer to magmeld... but lets limit it to a really unfair amount of itens, people will lose their Vit pots (that should replenish full vit, but now only 1/7 WITH NO WARNING), their B-Day pots and all kinds of stuff
I have 18 B-Day pots (4 hour) got 15 from AN EVENT MADE BY NC before GoD and 3 for my regular B-Day, all my friends are going to Magmeld... and i'm stuck

So basically these are the reasons why i became a forum player, most of the time i just do a daily quest, and look up the forum, hope to find some new that will make me want to play again.....

Opnion to the future? : playboys walking around in +15 gear and lv 99 with the help of xp runes, was any1 here ever in a private server, or had a friend to tell you how it is? they certainly can relate in MANY aspects

Hope i'm not breking any forum rules here, (not by what i checked but anyways) this is my opnion feel free to disagre but GoD was the greatest Expansion ever, and its runied for me :(
ShadoWave, are you planning to buy something from NC store anytime soon ?
Yes ? then you can buy those XP runes too
No ? since you are not supporting the game, stop complaining and move on dude !!

Ok, destruction EWR are maybe too much, but game is free anyway.
Gee... Lineage Eternal is impressive, I guess that NCsoft's answer to Diablo genre.

I reckon we wont see/hear anything about Lineage 3 until Blizzard will be good on their way with Titan.

Enjoy L2 until then.

Well, let's wait the Guild Wars 2, TERA, ArcheAge and maybe, Diablo III releases, and see if the game (and community) will survive till there... :rolleyes:

It's survived bigger games so far, why do you think it will be any different this time?


GW2, niche just like GW, TERA - Aimbots DOA, ArchAge - never heard of it, Diablo3 IF it's released this year (unlikely) it's not an MMO

Just not seeing anything that compelling in any of these games, TERA was a maybe but it's already ruined so I'll pass on it
Do that and this happens

Since half of the newcomers are "Private server donaters" that most likely just buy adena from the web aswell and then go to the forum to cry about bots/login problems/being hacked or scammed...
I do think they should just piss off...

No demand = No business for bot companies = Only bots ran by players themselves (which would be alot less than companies have already)
This. All the randoms go back to your priv servers please and leave L2 for the old school people, kkthxbai

OMG people, stop crying all around this forum about the new comers. NCSoft made the game free to revive the game so you`ll not need to be in Giran only with Taurin.
You spent so many $$ playing it these years.. who gives a fak?? I waste so many money on electricity, food, drink... but I don`t go to the companies to cry that I spent my money to their profit. So it in Lineage 2, you paid = they gave you a service = you used the service = bye bye money.
Luna used to be the most deserted server on ncwest. Then naia used to be a mid traffic server.
SInce GOD naia has 200% of its capacity .
I believe nothing more needs to be said :D
NCWes closed Lineage cause people didn't give enough money to support it.
In Lineage 2 u see anywhere people with xp runes , pets and shots. That means the game is working as it should be ;D
ShadoWave, are you planning to buy something from NC store anytime soon ?
Yes ? then you can buy those XP runes too
No ? since you are not supporting the game, stop complaining and move on dude !!

No i'm not planning on buying any NCoin
"Supporting the game"? I paid for this game for a long time before it became free, so i think i kinda have the right to be mad, specially on the 15 R weapons
why dont you move on and let me QQ in peace?
and btw, that what not a complaint, those are the reasons why i just play from the forum these days
i read somewhere lineage is closing in june-july but nothing about lineage 2..

Lineage 1 servers closed a long time ago, where have you been?
I havent seen anyone say that.

Dude you aint been reading my posts...or they been so aggresive that NCSoft closes or deletes em lol and ya havent gottena chance to see em...but yeah...deleting or moving all toons made since Nov 20011 need go bye bye :D

Lineage Eternal will be a MMO, not a dungeon crawler like Diablo(focused in solo and coop gameplay). It will bring back the Lineage 1 style MMO, with better graphics and improved gameplay:

when AION goes free and GW2 is released, yes l2 will die!
people were saying this for years so keep dreaming
If I had $1 for every time I saw or heard somebody shouting this impending doom for L2 over the years I would not need a full time job.
Cause there's always a want-to-be pop guy trying to make a super cool trend topic about "the future of l2", "the future of ncsoft" and bla bla bla.
The fact that the game is a f2p cash shop says a lot already. I think we were predicting this years ago and the same people were trolling saying it would never happen.
