they need to bring down cost of l2 store bring the enchanting to be more fun also game needs to be more fun instead of high prices and driving away the community and robbing them of their wallets hence why mass exodus off in game players currently at this rate only gm and devs left by year 2018

better GM and DEVs keep the game f2p but just better employees current ones are terrible and bad towards the community
I've been around this game a long time. There cannot be such a thing. NCWEST is not Innova/NC Japan.
NCWEST has zero power over administration of the L2 franchise. They will continue to be bare-minimum skeleton crew operation. They have no power or incentive for anything else.
Honestly some of you just need to put down L2 and play a modern americanized MMO. The suggestions going on this week - some of them are so insane and off base - would so radically change the foundation of the game that it wouldn't be Lineage II anymore.
If you want to start helping, start suggesting things that are reasonable and possible for NCWest to implement. Keep in mind they can't code. They couldn't even fix the Hungry Horse Event! Notice that it's the "Final Hungry Horse Event" NOT because they want it to be the last one, no, but because the code for the event is so borked up and old that they can't get it running.
Nothing revolutionary is possible. A far more obtainable solution is to look at the patches and differences between regions (specifically RU, KR, and EU) and request systems or mechanics that already exist be ported over to the NA servers.
They will continue to be bare-minimum skeleton crew operation.
I've wondered about this myself - it's obvious that the NCWest crew is understaffed and underfunded but how bad is it? I can't imagine there are more then a dozen full time employees in the entire company. Maybe behind a healthy layer of managers and do-nothings.
It's been my theory for years now that nearly all NA revenue is immediately sent back to the parent company in Korea. A small percentage is kept inhouse for administration expenses only. NCWEST has no control over these funds, and has no incentive to increase them.
Unlike INNOVA which has a tighter contract with NCKorea. They keep some of the revenue and actually care about the health of their community as such.
