I wonder about about the delay that some people are suffering part, especially only the people of Latin America 99%...people who say that there is no problem, the problem is that our computer or our connection, or it is our fault because we live far away ... THE PROBLEM STARTED NOW, this week, with 99% of the players of Latin america,The lag exists, started monday, hope for solutions or at least EXPLANATIONS!!!

Brand New;
It will come back in regular intervals;

How many NCoin will the Prestige Pack go for ?

And will it finally contain some Destruction Scrolls: Enchant Weapon & Armor (R-Grade) in those regular intervals ?

"Brand new" as in exclusive, never before released items. More information about the Prestige Pack will be revealed on Thursday.
Pffff!!!

And still no fix for the stuck at splash screen issue. 7 weeks and counting now.

An issue that stops clients even from starting yet your devs cant track down the cause in 7 weeks?
some explanation for this "LAG" or "DELAY"?:)
I read a Post where a Player pointed out that the problem was not NCsoft but the Network Carrier Company Level3.net. A internet sub-station in Dallas is causing huge packet losses. So Players sending/receiving data is not 100% optimal.

NCsoft said they are very aware of it as they have been investigating it since early last week. However, right now the matter is slightly out of their hands. This is not something NCsoft have control over as it is not their data centers causing this issue. NCsoft is doing all they can to contact the owners of these data centers but realistically, they need players to also report the issues to their ISP's and until Level3.net do not hear anything from their own customers, they will not have the motivation to resolve these issues.

Amsterdam>London>New York hubs are all fine untill we get to Dallas it is all [CENSORED]. 25-50% Packet Loss starting from Dallas to NCsoft Servers. I never thought of this, untill a Player brought this up in the Forum. Since I am not from the USA how can a Player from the EU even complain about technical issues from another ISP on the other side of the world in the USA?

Everyone should stay calm and not expect miracles, fixes come when they have them... not much more to it.

-Not only South American players, i' m from Spain & have same problem last 9/10 days.
-Have 17 hours of big lags/delays & 7 hours absolutely no lag (every day is exactly the same and starts / ends at the same time) :confused:

....DEWR again in NCshop...? so we should get ready to a new load of mastercard masters with red weapons...? uff :/

There always has and always will be players who are willing to pay for advantage. The only difference here is that the L2 store makes it EULA-compliant. Don't think for a second that if NCSoft wasn't cashing in that those same players would be playing by the rules. They wouldn't. They'd be off spending tens of thousands $USD to OE as many +16 weapons as they can. They've been doing it since day 1. At least this way NCSoft gets a piece of the action, which helps keeps the lights on and the server hamsters running for you and I.
Any fix for the Olympiad Manager Juji ? :rolleyes:

Its not problem of Latin American only, I heard that few players from Spain got same issues as well as me and my friends from Czech Republic.

Great, hope we can check over the rankings till end of month ^^
just small and quick question. there was live gm who kicked out all adena sellers from party matching rooms and towns? left only some spammers in mail.

I think they should demand their monthly fees back!!
You know if you want to sell more items in the L2 store/ Galleria (not so much) find out what we want. A bit of cosplay wouldn't be bad and an assortment of boots/shoes in the beauty shop. I'm all for a decent choice of agathions.Why not poll the server?

yep, i doubt it will be destruction/ancient scrolls, you'll probably see that more towards the end of the year to make the numbers look good for the company at year end.

i bet you it will be agathions/appearance stones/mounts that were never offered. maybe this is why the GM's had appearance buffs a few days ago and those ninja/army/spacesuit appearance buffs a few months ago was just a test. so knowing ncsoft, they should be releasing new appearance stuff just.

Juji, is the archer's deadeye stance on that 'list to be fixed'? it's been weeks since you said the dev's are looking into it and still no update. also, for the ninja outfit that people got from the 'agathion event' that has the hide skill, is that fix on the list too? it would be awesome to have the 30 sec of hide stated in the description instead of 5 sec of hide

This seems like a warning to not party ppl from Latin America, since they are gonna lag hardcore.

Thanks for the headsup.
I like how this update finally tackles small but annoying problems like servitors sinking to the ground, and Kamaloka removing buffs.
Stop complaining people, and be realistic. Even if they could fix everything in a day, there are reasons they don't.

Patience benni. You don't have coins anyway..
....DEWR again in NCshop...? so we should get ready to a new load of mastercard masters with red weapons...? uff :/

Mastercard masters? More likely bots who have over 100 billion in the inventory will have red weapons.
well! u maybe forgot to check nersury instance! to target mobs u have to push next target becuz u can't see them! maybe u have time to fix it today or emergency maintance or do smth! useless for a char less than 90 to not be able to lvl up now that all servers have max popularity at 95+
Potential fixes for game problems.
Thank you.
You should read everything :rolleyes:

agree :D xD i never read from GMs DEWR and DEAR back in game
its all good and fine for u to make as much money as possible with ur l2store... but for ****ing sakes do something about the bots in gf/str2/str3! even 24/7 bots from gf have become heros on shilen...
start doing ip banns!

well i agree for the bot thing in toi/it/bs/str2/str3/h1/h2/h3/GoG/o1/o2/o3/GF/HF but i think u are blaming ppl now :P even so i think bots are being banned BUT new bots alive every day! well exception are bots in GF/HF because u can't go 97 or even 95 in 1 day :P once a while push bot report! not bad! noone does in GF or even in HF! they just trying to flag them to kill them and get the spot like they won't stand ever again to bot to the same places!

Good option is to re-activate the support in game that is deactivated since Tauti client lunched, that was giving the oportunity to talk with NC at once making it easier to ban bots like it was at awakening and harmony patches

VALI

I'm from Canada, Province of Quebec which is on East Coast and i do suffer from lag too... mostly at night GMT-5.

Yesterday, i was playing fine from 5pm to about 8pm then lag started.

I reported it to my ISP which did some verification and everything was fine for them.

I got a BOMB PC so it's not the issue. I did restart my modem and router.

So i don't think the lag issue is only Latin America...

Friends from Province of Quebec in my clan also suffered from lag since 2-3 weeks, mostly at night.

Playing on Shilen server. Reported it 2 weeks ago, answer i got was to contact my ISP...:mad:

Naia --- possibly using 3rd software players as ValianT (now huge red weapon), mostly believable he is called the king of stakatos, every room has players who are believed using 3rd part software farming 24/7, u hit them, that red weapon appear.

IceKing7 or something, SH member, together with Danceres (SH) moving their toons everywhere, those toons farming 24/7. They come to kill lowbies at raids, because they bring their toons and farming them to level up till lvl 85 faster, however now u can farm q and lvl 85 is 24 hour work.

PoD always full of bots, GF has 3 parties who farming now more than 6 month 24/7

Administration know everything about that, got lo0ads of mails abpout them looking into this...however bots still there, running and farming.

What we learned? U need adena, have good PC...farm.
Shame on you Ncsoft, i still need to equip my cloack, ride my horse, and now wynn bug.. jajajajaja

Nice job guys!
I wonder when the problem will be corrected where War and initiated during the Siege?

The Golem Generator mobs now appear normally btw
Yes, the bug with the golem generators and the nursery npcs falling underground was fixed.
First off, when will we able to view the Olympiad ranking? Come on, it's a middle of the month already! How long must it take to repair just 1 html link???


thats is simple:

in http://lineage2.plaync.co.kr/ (korea) was with lindvior was this option in game removed and it was moved to the website. When look here: http://lineage2.plaync.co.kr/gameinfo/olympiad/olympiadInfo

you can see realtime info about firtst 50 from each class

and you can look to past month as well...

So i asking Juji or Vali when this will be implemented to the lineage2.com website !

Thank you. Any word on capes removing themselves once you log in?

Realtime info surely looks cool, but, considering how NCwest managed to mess up even the "realtime" (that is, updated every 2 weeks) castle ownership page (with just 2 servers, mind me!), I would not hold my breath.

For now, just give us the option to view the past month's ranking, that'll do it.
Servers are still down?

They're up.
You should read everything :rolleyes:

I did :rolleyes: but i thought that the Prestige Pack was the "brend new item" he was talking about ;p
The underwear augmentation issue will be fixed.

True dat. Just checked and the weight augment is back.

The real-time info about the Olympiad is available on the NCKorea website since they changed the layout a few years ago, with the Freya or High Five update. This has nothing to do with Lindvior. The Olympiad Ranking is still visible in-game in Korea. Juji is playing with a foreign visitor account on Devianne, so he can maybe confirm it.

The developers simply forgot to put back in the HTML link in the rush when they fixed the Olympiad Point calculation link a few days after it should have been fixed :)
Is there any explanation why they keep sending bugged patches, and then we have to wait weeks and weeks for the fixes (while the bugs got fixed in Korea months ago)?
Yes, the bug with the golem generators and the nursery npcs falling underground was fixed.

this is fixed but..... new bug! servitors buffs! when ur servitor die on next summon it hasn't got buffs! as summoner i'm useless now
Fixed issue in which the skill effect for Cozy Mucus wouldn’t apply to crossbows.

victory!
Not yet, we are pushing them for a bunch of fixes as you know. That one is on the list as well.

JUJI!

How you call yourself Chuck Norris Junior if you can't fix a bug before it even starts to exist?

LOLWUT
