Server Maintenance - 12 - 12 - 2012

News & Announcements Started Last reply 67 posts
All game servers, and the NCSOFT.com account management will be down for maintenance on Wednesday, December 12 2012, at 5am PST / 7am CST / 8am EST / 1pm UTC/GMT (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Lineage+II+Weekly+Maintenance&iso=20121212T05&p1=234). Estimated downtime is approximately 4 hours for the game servers and 3 hours for the NCSOFT.com account management.

With this maintenance:


Our holiday event, Kaliel's Blessing (http://www.lineage2.com/en/news/events/kaliels-blessing.php) begins!
Server transfers to Chronos become unavailable until further notice. Transfers to Chronos purchased before this maintenance will be processed today.
The server time of Chronos server is corrected from GMT+0 to GMT-2, after an accidental time change in last week's maintenance.
Some bug fixes:

The "movement bug," which caused characters to no longer continue to move forward when the mouse is clicked both right and left.
Fixed the issue in which enchant effects of a modified item would display as effects prior to modification when the character transformation is undone.
they wonder. all I need!

Dark Amaranthine Enhancement Stone

Blessed Scroll – R99-Grade

Nothing about the time change?

Nothings going to ninja in? Can we depend on your consistency?
keep yar fingerzzz crozzed and hope servers/npc wont crush )))
Question to sace, will this event also count as we are doing soa and kartia solo or is it outside of those zones.

cheers
Another event where we have to go to town every hour for a stupid buff really? Forces you to choose to continue exp or take a break. For people who are the only summoner in the party that means if they are deep inside of somewhere they can't go because they need to summon the rest of the party.

I don't understand events like these.
Stage 28 - Sealed Talisman of Longing
Stage 29 - Dark Amaranthine Enhancement Stone
Stage 30 - Blessed Scroll – R99-Grade

Don't you think it's a bit lame to put an item that costs more then 20bil adena ahead of items that don't cost even 1bil.. I mean the rareness here is totally rediculous. I think it'll be more fair if the Talisman is 2nd to last place just ahead of the tauti ring, cos everybody will agree, at this point, these are the most imba items in-game (excluding Earth wyrm ring which is just a distant dream)
There is no fix for terrible lag on Heavy traffic servers?
expect more lag incoming as this event caters to awaken bots of which we got more then 1k on Naia..

bot train owners are very pleased with this event so grtz !!

explain something to me Sace, why does NCWest chose to close server transfers over banning the so very obvious bots which on both Naia & Chronos are in the thousands ?

will this event mean you will finally man up and clear those bots from the servers ?

or maybe we should be like those disgruntled CoH players and voice how well GM's are NOT doing their jobs on L2 NCWEst servers at NC Soft's Facebook ?

http://www.facebook.com/ncsoft Dont worry! Now is closed server transfer, soon will be deleted summoners, coz we have too much summons!

And after tanks.. because they have cubics..
i understand that u just receive packets from Korea, but this event would have been a great way to implement R95 soul crystals to the game. i haven't seen any such rewards at the event page
server is online?
server is online?
Wait at least 2 hours more...

But seriously, what's the deal? Everyone can verify it by themselves by trying to log in.
Some of the Event Rewards are tottaly useless and most should have a different Stage.

PS: We all should prepare to stay perma logged and pray for no d/c, cos with this event Naia and maybe Chronos will be on lockdown with soo many event bots coming again.
(At Naia we already have problems to log in from time to time due to Server Cap)
I wonder if this includes a fix for Ron's Dual Blunts, moving it from the measly 4 Crit Rate to 6 like all dual blunts got back in September? Or how about a method for acquiring R95 Soul Crystals? Nope, no fix? Ahh...ok. No money for NCoin then.

Im just waiting to become a gatekeper, look at the bright side, i will get adena for it.
I have the slight suspicion that the lack of R95 crystals related rewards is due to Koreans being mostly already on end-game gear...

if people would just do campaign, there wouldnt be a lack of crystals on the market no1 does campaign so no1 will ever see the instance again :P

Heck, I agree with you. I was dying to get to 95 to raid Maliss and Isadora, since they looked cool... :(

But my post was more towards the people complaining about the lack of event rewards on that level range.
Why all servers are Up exept Chronos?

It's taking its time...














Lamest pun ever!
Maintenance - event starts - naia down after 15 minutes

i´ve seen this before!
Well it appears that NCwest really is only consistent at breaking the server every week

Kudos guys, BEST nc team evar
Is anything working properly every scheduled maintenance?

Cuz all i see every week is that things have taken the downhill... lol
Well, event started and I didnt get free kaliels buff... So event is bugged and thats why server is dovn?

yea, so server is up, i have the event buff, but the window says "you are not participating in the event" and i cant cancel the buff and use new one

another example of precise game management

oh and the event npc isnt there either
Cool! Server is back, with rollback (logged in in middle of mob group in SoA...).
Also soa quest not done great!

And of course event better bugged - says that im npt participating in it and i have 44 min of kaliels buff left =.=
The "movement bug," which caused characters to no longer continue to move forward when the mouse is clicked both right and left.

Why you removed that feature?
Are u kidding me?! Servers down again?!
And here we go again

GOGO NC!!! Third time is the charm! :D
i think they are just playing with our emotions
QQ ready 2 Partys for istina, enter, Server down
Server up, gather 2 Partys for istina,enter, Server down
QQ
Server down, and will be needed to make little rollback because of loose instances like fortuna xD
no **** about to drop mos and server goes down
Very nice event /NOT. I am still w8ing for an altar to be opened so i can get a R95 cry so i can enjoy the game.
Known Issue: The event item descriptions say the items will be deleted on May 23. This is an incorrect date that is not relevant to our servers, so please ignore it. The event items will remain in the game until the event ends on January 2, 2013.

If this is known, shouldn't it also be known that the servers wouldn't work? Just sayin'.
And here we go again

GOGO NC!!! Third time is the charm! :D

3rd time wasn't a charm XD
it makes me wonder!!! the official site shows server up , but when logging servers are down?
This is stupid how many times is it going to come up and go down? do they not test this crap before implementing stuff???
Servers Up Down =(
Up... down... yeee xD
This is stupid how many times is it going to come up and go down? do they not test this crap before implementing stuff???

no we are the ginnie pigs XD
I dont even understand what the **** IS GOING ON...

My box ISS, which was OUT OF PARTY, has the same event level as my main character, and i cant use the "buff item" on my iss either

I have used the buff on my main and it says "you are not participating blah bla blah"

WHAT THE....
i lost count its now the 5th or 6th time chronos went down in the last 2 hrs? :mad:
how about you take yourself some little more time to get them back up and do it right instead!?
an official statement about why this is happening would be nice too and even if it's "just" an apology.


ps: i am also disapointed that a threat about the downtimes i started got simply deleted, without statement or anything...

Do they even think what they 're gonna do on maintenace every week? Or they just decide at this time?
Up donw again AFF
no we are the ginnie pigs XD

You would think I would realize that by now after all these years lol.

Nice 98 othell care to share with me the best set ups at 86? :)
they want us all to play on bartz
This is stupid how many times is it going to come up and go down? do they not test this crap before implementing stuff???

Negative, it gets sent over from korea and NCWest slaps that sucker on us, and then fix it a week later AFTER we've done all the testing. So yes, guinie pigs.

Saddly its not as a player base...

WHAT THE....

after a server restart or crash the event begins 30 minutes after the server gets up, so that the buff you had before is not working until the 30 minutes pass and you also cannot use the other kalliel's buff items from inventory when the even't isn't "active"
Server went down, but while it was up I didn't have lag!:)
Did someone change Lumi back from ranged summon to melee summon? Or its range has been simply reduced?
So, the servers are still lagging, geodata is still trash and now weve got a constant stream of activity.

Are these maintenances just to bug us players?

Where does one apply to join nc? I wanna sit on forums and lie to my player base all week long without actually doing anything
39 minut later...
