The Goddess of Destruction: Tauti update is launching to NCsoft West Lineage II servers on June 13, 2012! (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=240311) Among other exciting changes, this game update removes the Territory War system from the game. This announcement serves as notification regarding the date of last Territory War session on each server, and what related quests and items will and will not be available after the update launches.
Final Territory War Dates
June 2, 2012: Chronos, Shilen
June 9, 2012: Naia, Magmeld, Bartz
The final Territory War session for each server will proceed as normal. After the game update launches on June 13, the News Informer NPC will be in-game for one month, until July 11, to help players complete any unfinished Territory War quests and to sell all previously-sold territory-related items for Territory War badges. In Goddess of Destruction: Tauti, Territory War badges can also be spent at the Aden Reconstruction NPC for Hero’s Treasure Chests.
Noblesse Changes
The ability to purchase Noblesse status with 100 Territory War badges will no longer be available after Tauti launches, even through the News Informer. Unfinished pre-Tauti Noblesse quests cannot be finished through the News Informer. Tauti does however bring a new Noblesse quest, details of which will be included in the patch notes when they are posted in the near future.
As this game update removes the Territory War system from the game, the dates of the final Territory War events for each server have been announced (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=240310).
So you announce the last Territory War ONE DAY early!
Incredibly good job.
I don't like your "we can't give any ETA until all details are finalized" policy.
How about you give every player 200 TW badges as compensation for your outrageous incompetence?
You probably don't do any long-term planning, don't set any long term goals. I guess you don't do Olympiads, TW, sieges etc. either. Of course any "timing" must be convenient to you, since you're not doing anything that requires planning. If so, why would you want the game update at all?

That's a lot of assumptions based on no proof. You know what they say about people who ASSume?
I've just seen an in-game announcement that "The last Territory War will be June 2". Then I went to the forum to see wth is going on.
26 hours left...
Oh, I forgot you play on Chronos, if I recall correctly.

Honestly, I really don't understand the last minute warning of this. It's not like it was a change that needed to be kept secret for market reasons (like Kartia passes, etc). There was absolutely no reason to hold this information back from the users, except that you didn't know yourselves.
It really makes me think that you (NCSoft) are as kept in the dark as the players.

Probably makes more sense than you know. NC Korea probably tells them what they can announce and when to.
It wouldn't really affect my toons too much but I don't think it would be out of line to suggest that they double the number of badges each toon has. That way people who have put in some effort will be rewarded and those who haven't even bothered get nothing. 200 for everyone is just a bit too much, imho.

they did say the reconstruction manager would exchange them for chests, so my thinking is if you have for example 20 badges you could get a chest for every one or every 5 badges for one chest.
Well if you got some misc badges left over it's better than getting a big fat lump of nothing isn't it. Let them sit in your inventory then and get nothing. I got badges too,but one more TW won't be enough to spend on anything for me either.
Would it really matter if they had announced it at all?
Its not like you could have done anything about it and we all knew Tauti would come soon..
Well, it could be the difference between getting enough badges through sitting in town in a couple more TWs for noble or knowing it is the last one and having to organize an event to get 50 or more.
Pray to the L2 GOD that the Korea Random TW badge reward so you don't end up total with 99 badge when you need 100 for noble or last TW weekend. NO More Tease plz.

For my badges, I was aiming to get 2 items worth 350 million each.
I don't really need anything else, especially "chests" that are "better than nothing".
I'd gladly accept 700 mil adena in compensation, since Sace failed to do the announcements in time.
We are aware of the necessity to announce ahead of time when the last Territory Wars will be for each server, and we plan to announce that as soon as possible.

Are you SURE you were "aware of the necessity to announce ahead of time"?
I don't think so...;)

You're bitter now that your cash cow is going away,time to find a new one :)
This last minute thing is pretty unfair, couldn't you guy's have given us at least 2 TW's advance notice ?
How about all the player's that have been saving up for TW item's that cost a insane number of badges, how is this fair to the new player's that have absolutely NO chance of obtaining what other's have gotten in the past, how on any sane basis can you guy's consider this a fair and timely announcement ???????
I know you guy's try to implement the changes as they become available and are translated over from the Korean server's, but there is one HUGE difference here, over THERE, they give their player's month's of advance notice when changes like this are implemented, once again the American server's treated like second best, hell we even treat our dog's with more respect~~~~
Much like many other situations like this we have had in the past, this is not the end of the world, nor even the end of this game.
If anything its a new beginning. And the removal of Territory war has been known months in advance, sure we didnt know the exact date, but we knew it was coming.
In a few months, the ppl that cry the most about this right now, will have quieted down, wiped the tears on their cheeks and moved on, and will still be playing the game, most likely coz there is no game that compare to this one, it simply is one of the best games out there.
As for getting noble from TW, sure it might have been nice to get noble on a character right at lvl 75, and getting it very fast too (2-3 TW's needed with some planning). But from what I've heard there will be a new easier noble quest at 85, and 85 dont take that long to reach anymore, and I bet the quest will still be easier than doing the subclass quest WITH stabbing Baium, and then doing the old noble quest INCLUDING killing Barakiel.
So calm down ppl, or if you dont wanna calm down, at least get excited about a new patch...

Warning of the impending end of Territory Wars was given previously. (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=239818) The exact dates could not be given until now because they were tied to the confirmation of June 13 being the launch date. Although we regret that this announcement could not please everyone as many players have different plans for their Territory War badge amount, we are happy that it was possible to give the notification before the last session occurred, in addition to other the heads-up notice given over a week ago.
Dear Sace, is it 100% info that for badges we get Hero's Treasure Chests like for Crystals? How many badges and adena needed for one chest?
ty
I'll try to get more info on the badge exchange rate and chest contents from QA, and I'll reply again when I have more info.

Now you're making me have doubts... Wasn't the new subclass/noblesse quest in Glory Days, while in Tauti there's a simplified subclass quest?

What I'm seeing in our patch notes (still undergoing formatting, tho) is a new Noblesse quest only, but nothing about a new Subclass quest.

Even with that "advance" notice, that still leaves only this TW, so in essence it still boil's down to the "one" day notice in reality.
I am not a new player, this doesn't really effect me, but can you answer the other part of what i said, is there something in place so new player's have the ability to obtain the item's most of us already have ? If not, how can you call this fair ?
Or why do the Korean server's get month's/week's advance notice of dramatic changes like this, and we do not ?
I know people are upset that their hard earned badges won't be used to get what they want because they don't have enough,but hopefully the stuff you wanted will be obtained in a sense like the TW,but a different pvp event.

There will be the Altar of Chaos (or whatever it's called in the English version) where you can obtain something remotely similar to Territory War Jewelry: http://power.plaync.co.kr/lineage2/%ED%98%BC%EB%8F%88%EC%9D%98+%EC%A0%9C%EC%A0%84
This PvP feature has no upper level limit, so it is dominated by Awakened players. It might take normal people a considerable time to get their Earrings :p
I think many were hoping for at LEAST 2 TW periods of notice for those working on getting noble via TW
Pretty much, or they could just give everyone the max reward of 90 badges as long as they get their kill's this last TW, that's something that's easily doable, and they have done in the past when they screwed up other TW's~~
This won't happen though because that's to "logical" and this is NC~~
Can we imagine to trade TW badges between players ??? so we can finish our quest or get an item we wanted ( i miss few aden badge to get TW R grade earing...)

No it's a quest item and it's player earned. What you have left you'll have to use it the best that's available to you.
u get the info about tw geting removed for like 1 week and ppl still complain cause they didnt know?the amount of stupidity i see on these forums always amaze me..

Vasi, think before you type, even the "advance" notice happened after the past TW period had already passed, so they only gave one TW's notice, in essence really is the one day ( I know there was a whole other week + but that doesn't do any good when it still only cover's JUST the next TW cycle ), so anyone that was saving for certain high quest item reward's is in essence screwed~~
The final Territory War session for each server will proceed as normal. After the game update launches on June 13, the News Informer NPC will be in-game for one month, until July 11, to help players complete any unfinished Territory War quests and to sell all previously-sold territory-related items for Territory War badges.
Hi Sace, is there any chances that also we can exchange all tw into just 1?
For example If a char with:
23 Territory War badges from Schurgartt,
32 Territory War badges from Aden
45 Territory War badges from Giran
NPC: Trade all you tw badges to become nobles (100 tw badges from any tw needed)
I bet many ppl have this issue. And i know there its gonna be a way to trade after tauti but just for those who wants to become NOBLE, and not to get a treasure chest.. Thanks.
I think the majority of people posting here that this isn't a big deal or that people are just QQing are missing the bigger picture. More and more we are getting no or very little warning of when important changes will occur. Yeah, we all knew this change was coming but, honestly, what was the reason for the secrecy? My always-humble opinion is that NCWest just doesn't know either.
Mark my words, there will come a time when a game changer that you do care about comes along and you will have little or no warning about it. Today it's TW. Tomorrow something else.
TW ended in Shilen. No compensation at all, same apparently random reward as allways.
May be Elrohir is right and NCWest didn't get the information in time. But in anyway you can consider it has been a very wrong move.
Lineage 2 is a game where you need to plan your way in the long term specially people that cannot play too many hours like me nowadays.
Cancel a game feature that is not minor without giving time to give players the opportunity to react and in consequence wasting all the time used for some goals is not the best to keep the comunity happy.
Its the second time i have to pay the incompetence of NCSoft in the last months, first was the unwarned servers time change. I'm not happy today.

You can't become Noblesse with the News Informer.
I could tell you to bring your money elsewhere, but its free to play >.<
I dunno what to tell you, but the end of TWs is not fresh news...
The game may be FTP now, but most FTP games out there do try to make their customer's happy so they are more apt to buy the in game goodies, which is where they make their money now, and trust me, they are making a ton more money on L2 now then at any time since the game was in it's first two year's, if they got smart and actually ADVERTISED, like people have been saying for YEAR'S, and like they do do in Korea, this game would be a financial windfall even now 8 year's after the fact~~
FTP or not common courtesy to keep your client base happy is general practice for most company's, and in Korea they DO do what they can to make their client base happy, that's the real problem here, its Korean owned, and to them we are just a afterthought market, service and a lot of other thing's would have long ago improved if we were run/owned by a American based company~~
First of all yes sorry about my english, is not mi first language and i'm bad at it.
I quoted you because, may be i'm wrong, your post was adressed to me and you are not saying anything inmo. You said the game is F2P model. Ok we all know it but what have this to do with a not good treatment to the clients?.
The game is F2P, this is just a marketing strategy, I know it and NCSoft know it too, not sure about you. Some people have to pay, this is a business. Its simple if no money no profits no game. To get money they need customers, and to have customers they need to make they happy about the game in all his aspects.
About fresh news, it has been argued a lot in this threat, i'm not going to repeat all have been said.
The aim of my first post was just to show to NCSoft (their representatives here) i'm a customer that is not happy with a couple of aspects of one of their business called Lineage 2. Not more nor less.
Hope you can understand my bad english. Have a nice they.
@ Cryo:
The news about the Territory Wars being removed has been out on the internet since half a year, I have posted it here on this forum (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=228048#5) on January 7. But apparently not everybody got the memo, which now leads to a lot of unhappiness.
To avoid such unnecessary unhappiness and the concomitant loss of revenue for NCWest in the future, it would be a good idea if you could google-translate the Korean patch notes as they are published [here (http://lineage2.plaync.co.kr/board/tsnotice/list)], [here (http://lineage2.plaync.co.kr/board/update/list)] and [here (http://power.plaync.co.kr/lineage2/)]. Make a dedicated "Upcoming Updates" section in the Dev Corner of this forum and post them "officially". There are a lot of people who refuse to believe anything that is not "official". And make sure that you constantly update those patch notes with information about the weekly Wednesday patches, using differently colored font to make it clear what is what patch state. You best give this task to whoever types up the final patch notes, presumably Sace. Juji does a very good job moderating the forum, you don't need Sace for that. And as I once explained to your predecessor, when you already have a rough draft of the patch notes, the official translators will have it easier, either just copy/pasting your stuff, or deliberately translating things differently. At the moment you are making horribly bad use of your limited resources; in this way you could create some synergies :)
well, yidao, i dont know you, and i dont know what you have to do with NCWest. If you are not a crew member of the company, you can post anything you like! serious or not serious posts from any non-official source is not taken seriously. even if you take your info from the official korean sites, translate them and repost them to us, I demand from those who work in ncwest to put their *** to work and do it properly and in time. community posts have nothing to do with official warnings and reminders. even if you informed us through the official forum, the ncwest crew should announce a link of your post in the official site!!

This is an example of someone that refuses to look at fansites because he believes they're not trustworthy, and takes it up his *** when official announcements come a couple days before a great change.

I am just a normal player and have absolutely nothing to do with NCWest :)
That's the reason why I wrote above that Cryo should set Sace, a staff member with a red forum name, to posting the Korean patch notes, even if they are only google-translated, in a dedicated forum section so that they are easy to look up. I have a blue forum name, and people who do not know me, or do not know enough Korean to check the links I always give as my source, can not judge whether what I write is true or just some troll post.
Apart from preventing players to make wrong investments, like for example spoiling/buying materials they won't have any use for any more when the crafting system (http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=772#p11378) gets changed again in Glory Days, this has also very practical reasons. The Korean patch notes are just that, short notes, and even Korean players sometimes misunderstand things. Check for example the various descriptions of the Chaos Shield, a skill the monsters at the upgraded Execution Grounds will use in Tauti: http://boards.rochand.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=772&start=30#p11549
That's all official information, just posted at different times. Therefore we need a dedicated staff member, like for example Sace, who does all day long nothing but check the various websites (Korea official, Inven.co.kr, Toushijing, the NCTaiwan QA blog) and constantly update the patch notes. By the time the update goes live, Sace will be thoroughly familiar with the new features and can answer player questions on the forum with the authority of her red name behind her. No need any more for me to step in :p
And there is the financial aspect. I am a translator in real life, so you can trust me, it takes time to make a good translation, especially when Asian languages are concerned, where people don't really believe in the difference between male and female (which can lead to confusion in lore texts) or between singular and plural, which regularly leads to doubts whether a skill is single-target or AoE. When Sace has already posted a first draft, the official translators already have a rough impression in which direction an update goes. Sace will save them the time to make a first draft themselves, and time is money.
Lastly there is the question of communication with the development department in Seoul, which at present leaves a lot to be desired. When Sparse (NCWest QA department) has a question about some specific point, the developers in Seoul will be more willing to answer him if he can point to a posted text and say "this is how far we got, but we simply can't figure out whether this skill is applied to one enemy or several enemies". An answer to that requires just a very short e-mail, containing the word "one" or "several", and the developers, who have tons of work of their own, will be much more willing to send such a short message than write a complete translation of the skill description in English. That's simply human nature :)
This is an example of someone that refuses to look at fansites because he believes they're not trustworthy, and takes it up his *** when official announcements come a couple days before a great change.
Yet there is still absolutely no reason for it to only be a couple of days announcement. Except the fact that NCWest has no clue about these updates either.
I'm not talking about the content. I'm talking about the timing.
Part of it is certainly that NCWest is indeed not sure at which time an update will be ready for launch (i.e. when exactly the last Territory Wars will be held). There are many factors which can cause a delay. If they announce the launch for a given date and unexpected snags come up, they will lose face, appearing to be incompetent.
Another, more sinister factor is that they are trying to create a hype by keeping the launch date secret, stoking excitement and suspense. But Tauti is not the iPad. This update will make the game significantly less enjoyable for many players. There is nothing to look forward to, and the greater the hype, the bigger the disappointment will be.
Therefore a wise strategy would be to avoid any hype, any suspense, any excitement. Post the patch notes officially as soon as they come out in Korea, half a year in advance. By the time an update actually arrives it will already have been discussed to death, infinite boredom permeating the forum. That's when you can launch without creating a major disturbance. Say three months in advance "we will launch in summer", say one month in advance "we will launch in the middle of June, get your Badges while you can", and then you can announce the actual launch date whenever you are ready.

If I could know of this change for half a year, so can everyone else. If they bothered at all to keep informed.

I have been using rochand since last summer when i came back to Lineage 2. Realy very useful boards.
I was aware few months ago about TW ending when Tauti will come. Normally i try to get all the information i can when playing a game. And more if the game is Lineage 2.
As far as i know, the launch date of Tauti was not posted in rochand before the official announcement in these boards. May be i miss it.
You still don't get the point. Sure is my bad english. Will do my last try using Elrohir words. "I'm not talking about the content. I'm talking about the timing" of the announcement.
OMG, just because some were aware of this update ahead of time by reading the Korean patch notes ( which they had month's in advance btw ) or by going to a fan site like Rochand has nothing to do with NC's job of keeping us informed, also while Rochand and the Korean patch notes are great there are many, many, many times over the year's that if you went by what you read from the Korean patch notes or the best fan site before Rochand ( EllieBelly ) that Elmar was writing and speculating on, you would have been burned because we did not see a LOT of that content, our changes are 80-90 % like their's but not alway's or anywhere near 100 %, so all of that info is in the end SPECULATION, not fact.
If they simply had or in the next few day's give everyone the max TW badges like they have in the past when there have been TW screw up's, that will end 90 % of the ( rightfully made ) complaint's, and the 10 % left, well you will never satisfy them anyway's.
The max TW badges is 90, and most only make 30 +, 40 +, if lucky 50ish badges, doing the max for everyone would be in effect making like they actually gave us two TW's to get ready, and at least on the surface make it seem like they care~~
To me this would be the easiest fix for the whole botched situation~~
Oh and btw, if they do the treasure boxes like they did in Korea for your left over badges, you also have to spend 1 mill adena of your own for each badge, this is by no mean's free, one of my friend's went and counted his up, add 1 mill per badge and it would cost him almost 3 bill to turn them all in from all of his toon's, and no guaranteed decent reward in the end from doing this.

So you did still know it was coming, even a few months in advance, you just didnt have the exact date.
Ppl still had months to get noble, thats the point.
I think it's good that TWs are ending. It was meant to be a big PvP thing, but then it turned into everyone just farming badges all the time. All be it that was for most the fastest way to get badges for multiple toons, TW lost its purpose imo. I welcome the change.

While I agree wholeheartedly with what you are saying, it still doesn't justify the slipshod, last minute way we were all notified.

also the new system is more fair in rewards as now ALL clans that holds a castle gets rewards like +2 Stats cloaks for all their clan members and +3 Stats for the CL unlike right now only 1 Clan/Castle controls all Wards.. and there's alot more then just that :)
to the whole omg I needed more time to farm badges for Noble I have to agree with Smittie as some of us have been trying to warn folks change was coming and those who read fansites should have known better..
now back to more important things as like
1. when will be the first new sieges
2. how/what will happen with the Hero's if anything at all ?
I don't get it, everybody knows it takes from 5-7 months for an update to reach us. When an update comes out in korea, you are aware of the time it will take to reach us, there's no need for an exact date if you are smart enough to add 5-7 months to korean's date release. I thot the update would come around July months ago, so i got rdy on all i could and now im just waiting cause i planned ahead.
Oh and btw, if they do the treasure boxes like they did in Korea for your left over badges, you also have to spend 1 mill adena of your own for each badge
