Aion Team Arctic Posted June 16, 2021 Aion Team Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hi everyone. With thousands of Aion Characters already created (hype!), and server/faction imbalances beginning to manifest themselves, we plan to begin implementing controls starting today. Expect to soon begin observing the following: We will occasionally be restricting character creation for individual factions, in order to help with faction balance. We may also restrict character creation on entire servers, if a server is lagging unacceptably far behind in population. If players are unable to create a character on their desired server/faction, please check back later. We plan to monitor creation activity and regularly update the controls as appropriate. However, since these updates can occur suddenly according to player behavior, we will not guarantee any broadcasting of when control changes take place. Thank you, and best of luck!

Vashiro Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hello, does that mean you're also preparing new servers for deployment on launch date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If both servers get full, there might be a need for a third server. Korea kept launching servers every other week or more because it was getting packed.

Guest Him Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 How will this work on launch for those of us that already have a character on a server? For example, if I have already created an Asmodian on Siel, am I allowed to freely make another 4 Asmos on the 23rd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since NCW is keeping close track, I wonder if they prepare already new servers to launch along with the 2 other servers on release since they might "cap" soon.

For now, however, next week you can make more characters. 7 minutes ago, Vashiro said: I hope so, yeah. I was on the KR server on launch, they kept releasing servers.

Post says "thousands of Aion Characters already created" which, to be fair, I'd be very surprised but also joyful to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no Eu Classic server I bet the EU number alone gonna be higher then thought. That plus seeing a ton of names in the discord have not seen in years.

Arhangelos Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 They should have had at least 5 servers and have some different time zones. If for any reason a server was to empty they could simply let people know on launch that the server they chose won't be going live due to low population.

Kibbelz stated on discord that while this is somewhat "global" release, the primary target is still NA. It's very, very unlikely we will get different time zones for the different servers.

Someone from USA might be a night owl. It would serve the EU players too or another region. The daily reset would be the same and the maintenance for convenience.

Contractually they probably are not allowed to actively tailor things for certain markets. So making specific servers with a specific region in mind in regards to siege times etc probably against their contract with Gameforge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, and best of luck! @Kibbelz You guys so out of touch again... You could clearly see on discord that you r part of it btw ... That more people was going to Siel AND... You know what like it was 11 years ago When you creat a toon they recommand you to go to Siel LOL I like how you guys force people to make 1 toon by account to reserve name and tell them Dont worry just ninja a name and when server will go live we will let you buy remodel ticket... By doing that you clearly make 9000 account regist over having people with 1 account 8 toon... And now we have unreal unballanced server... Surprise !!!
