/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I hope you don't choose Elyos on Zikel, or at least without having a semi large guild/group of friends. Or you're gonna get ran over by the Asmos there.

The name Rin on Spatalos was already taken. Which of you faggots was it?

>>3393795
Shit. Too late ;_;

Somebody stole my nick... Time to quit this shitty game.

Got in and reserved "Saaya" and "Cisa" for myself on Spatalos. I always have one character named Cisa, and I want to use Saaya but it's always taken.

shit is this game any good


shitties thing though is my country for some ridicilous reason is part of Europe...

>>3393908
Yeah, it sucks living in Turkey.

Downloading godamn update, I hope my name isnt taken EU spatalos probably...

>>3393908
Why would you play on the US servers?

I can understand Mabinogi and all them cutesy, overly kawaii games, but how the hell is Aion /jp/ related? And i dont mean this as DOHOHO REPOT YU AZ, but why the fuck would you play this? WoW with 5 more tittie sizes? Instead of flying lions you have flying unicorns? Come on now, when are you going to fucking get real and realize this refurbished shit just doesnt cut it.

>>3393927
USD is cheaper than the fucking EURO

>>3393894
The proper course of action is to make a dummy character, log in and threaten the person who stole your nick to delete their character.

>>3393952
The person who took my nick is a GM of a quiet famous european guild.
In short, shit sux.

>>3393929
You can criticize it all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that it still does its job, which is to entertain people, very well. It DOES "cut it".

>>3393914

whoops small mistake on your part

THIS IS ICELAND

>>3393975
In your, and apparently many other peoples mind yes, but im more after the final thought of "what the fuck". You know that feeling you had when you read your first VNs? And after going through all those sexromps to get your hands on that one actually touching and interesting story? Its like sayinf that the function of police is fighting crime, instead of social control and protection of property. Mutually inclusive? I think not.

DISCLAIMER: I have no fucking idea what im rambling about

>>3394002
Neither do I. The simple fact is that games (usually) are made to entertain. If you're not entertained by it then find something else that works for you, let the players alone and stfu. It's THAT simple and if people could could figure it out the world would be a better place.

>>3393929
I don't know; I'm not going to play Aion because I'm busy playing WoW already, and I'm certainly not going to start over with something that's the same shit.

On the other hand, I'm intending on trying out DFO, although I doubt I'll end up playing much. Been too lazy to bother getting a key yet though.

Successfully reserved my name, thank god.
Looking forward to Sunday.

Aion is another example of how Koreans can't make anything original.

They take a selling game (WoW in this case) and just replace all the models with the same generic "realistic large breast" bullshit. It's happened before and the only reason you idiots are buying into this now is because it happens to be a WoW clone.

You can give WoW all the shit you want but the fact is it's still selling and that's only goddamn reason you are playing this.

>>3394133
We know. It's all recycled generic shit with a few stolen features.

We don't care, we just want to have some fun.

>>3394173
Well if that is the case then I have said my piece on it.


On another note is anyone else on /jp/ waiting for FFIV online?

Tried to get Rin on Triniel, but it was taken right away. I managed to get Tohsaka and Horo, at least.

Take this shit back to /jp/

>>3394200
k

Got my name on Lumiel. I came soon after.

i'm playing Zikel.

this shit free?

>>3394782
I hope you aren't on Elyos side...

>>3394133
Koreans know that they dont need to be original when theres no need to in the first place.
Aion is better than WOW graphic-wise.

>>3394188
FFIV? Don't you mean XIV? Yeah, if it's easier to play than XI, it might be a great MMORPG, thanks to the FF universe. Wait and see. It can be shit as well.

I tried to take Cloud and Sephiroth on Azphel, to no avail. Oh well, got the names I wanted anyway.

>>3394788
Yeah. They give you some free Ipods in your E-mails as well.

Poorfag here, I fucking hate every single one of you.

I'm just wondering why this game is so hyped up.

I'll probably try it when it hits the bargain bin like every other game this company makes.

>>3394908

You're not missing much.

>>3394912
Because it's like every other Korean MMO.

>>3394908

never heard of mabinogi

http://na.aiononline.com/en/news/preselection-server-status.html

Holy shit, half of the servers are locked to Elyos only. Why do people chose Asmo?

>>3395376
Because they're furfags.

>>3395376
Bitches don't know bout being blessed by the heavens.

Anybody still looking for a server I'm Elyos Siel.

And I didn't get Rin on Siel like I did in OB but I should have expected that. I took Primula instead which is all I could come up with at the time and now I only half like the name.

After picking out my names (taking up my friends extra slots is quite a nice method) I decided to play with the name available option at the character creation. It disgusted me to see that nearly every unoriginal faggot has claimed their apparently awesome names. From Reimu to Cirno, Cloud to Sephiroth, nearly every single name I could think of was taken and the pre-selection for the server had only been up for 3 hours at the time. I already feel like EU-Spatalos is suddenly a shithole.

Why do people choose Spatalos? There are many other EU servers.

>>3395446

There's 4 "English" servers. 3 of them are going to be overrun with Spanish/Swedish/Russians etc. Spatalos has the highest amount of UK players from what I can see which is the only reason I'm rolling on it.

>>3395458

Sorry, I meant 5 English servers. 1 is RP so I kinda forgot about it.

Any news on nuce patch?

Any news on nude patch? I want my naked loli.

>>3395487
If you really want a nude patch, you are a huge faggot.

So far on NA servers we have people at
Zikel, 2.
Lumiel, 1.
Triniel, 1.
Azphel, 1.

Forming a /jp/ legion is impossible.

And EU servers everyone's going to Spatalos anyway. Just so you know, I envy you guys ;_;

>>3395469
Which one is a roleplaying server?

I'm going to Gorgos. RP servers usually have less kids running wild and it's not like there are people actually roleplaying other than a few.

To those on Elyos side on Zikel, I pray for you all. A lot of the Asmos that I know are going to swarm over or stomp you guys, some Elyos Legions are already starting to abandon ship after trash talking unfortunately. I would be playing but I've got more important stuff to worry about.

I wish we had janitor.

>>3395502

Gorgos.

Already created mai waifu on Telemachus. Also got a second character on Spatalos in case I ever get an urge to play there.

>9 GB
>Pay to play

Fuck that, I'm not downloading something so big and paying for it when it's just another shitty Korean MMO. Maybe if it were smaller and free I would consider it.

>>3395519

Comrade ;_; How could you not roll your waifu on Spatalos?

>>3395532
>9 giga
>so big
Oho~

>>3395546
Downloading at 450 kB/s, yeah, it's pretty big.

>>3395586

Remi or Remilia?

>>3395541
Because someone already took that name. My download crashed few hours before the start of preselect and I had to download the entire thing all over again. I was lucky that my friend was kind enough to register names that I wanted on both servers for me, but sadly Remi was already taken 30 min after they opened Spatalos ;_;

>>3395596
Remilia of course.

>>3395610

Insert screenshot of my character screen with a character called Remilia here.

Couldnt get Exia, shit sux. We should have been able to keep our beta names if we pre-ordered before the first one ;[

Azphel player reporting in.

I was looking at the download being 9 gigs and all, which isn't much but considering my current max d/l speed is 180kbps, I was thinking of just buying the box release.

But then I saw it was 49.99 and thought " a couple days of waiting can't hurt." So yeah I'm gonna give this game a shot.

>>3393986
já sæll, íslendingur..

Got my name reserved on Lumiel, see you all Sunday?

>>3393761
Seconded.

Got Alicia and Lenneth on Vidar, I am a happy man.
Well, being a frenchfag, it's not like there's a lot of (good) competition. Might join an English-speaking server later on.

System reqs?

>>3396237
Don't you have to buy the game either way?

>>3397519

For once it's nice to be European.

Then this will have to wait until Nov-Dec when I will upgrade my 6 years old system to the level to be able to play both Mass Effect, F3 and Dragon Age.

>>3397541
>both
>Mass Effect, F3 and Dragon Age
Heh?

>>3397543
Both Mass Effect games

I also created two characters on Spatalon: Spica and Miir. See you guys there the 20st.

Another online RPG? Is it good?

>>3393760
> Save the English language: http://www.anonta[removethis]lk.com/ICARE
Seconded.

>>3398154
Same as all the others. It is newer so it has better graphics.

>>3393758
> Save the English language: http://www.anonta[removethis]lk.com/ICARE
Wow. This board is so cool!

So the box set 50$. If I download it, will I have to pay the same sum?

What the fuck is this shit? Seriously, I was expecting better graphics, even Perfect world looks better, except char models maybe.

>>3398464
There's a mod that fixed the terrain textures.

>>3398464
Everybody loves fapping to character models, why would you care about the backgrounds anyway.

I like how Elyos are not balanced to Asmodians.

I am an elitist faggot and I will enjoy partying with other elitist faggots, us all being as effective as possible, steamrolling other faggots who "play games for fun" and killing groups of Asmodians 3x our group size. Whichever server I join will have Asmodians ragequitting.

This is going to be beautiful.

>>3398602
I don't even play the game but i sense strong baww in you my friend

/jp/ - grinding/general

>>3398464
Yeah some of the textures are not so pretty. Apart from that, the game can look very good.

>>3398499

Was a link to it ever found?

We will be getting ready to play about this time tomorrow!

Feels good man

Going to try it on private server to determine if I even like it before I buy it.
http://infiniteaion.com/index2.php

>>3398602
But everything is balanced so yeah

>>3399748
>aion private server

Enjoy your non-existent gameplay and wasted time.

I spend hours in those char generators and still suck. Is there a guide or something on desinging coherent faces? Also, what the fuck, no custom preset saving?

What the hell, my CPU isn't even 2 years old and I don't have the minimum system reqs? Fuck this bullshit.

>>3399875
I think she looks pretty cute.

No credit card so I couldn't preorder and every single shop around here is out of preorders so I can't get into preselection+headstart tomorrow ;_;

Oh well, I'll play on the 22nd and grind my ass off.

>>3399875
You have tons of experience with 2D, choosing what your waifu is gonna look like shouldn't be that hard.

I also spend hours when creating my char in Aion, but that's just because I want her to look as pretty possible.

can you play dorfs?

>>3399861
Enjoy paying a lot of money for something you'll play two weeks at most.

>>3399890
Yes. You can make lolis too.

>>3399879
How? My computer is 5 years old and I can run it (somewhat) fine. The only bottleneck is my 1gb of ram, but that just means I need to close everything else I'm doing when I play.

>>3399897
loli dorfs?

>>3399875
I'm just happy it's nothing like the character customizations in Oblivion. Derp.

Looks pretty good to me. I too use to make them with blonde hair with a hint of pink, plus green eyes.

>>3399894

Funny, I've been playing it for well over 3-4 months. Fuck yeah, Chinese Aion.

>>3399907

You can pretty much create what you want. Most people either make midgets or complete monstrosities that always seem to make me smile when I see some 10 foot guy with tiny legs and a huge balloon head, an afro and some pink rosy cheeks.

>>3399875
Just flip through the different faces until you find one you like and then maybe just change it a bit.

Reserved my name and everything but I still don't know if I should redesign my character.

>>3399986
Post your character design thread?

I'll probably be using my character design from Open Beta. Decent size (not stupidly small like most characters) and looks awesome running around beating the shit out of things.

>>3399986

Awesome, I'll give you a message ingame when the head start begins.

So, 4 initial classes then a fork at level 10 to choose between two upgrades? That's a bit poor.

Did the best I could with what I had.

I olev this haircut.

>>3400006
You're cheap, hiding your ORIGINAL slider positions like that.

>>3400024
How so? It's pretty normal for the first stage of a game.

Aion has 8 (counting only the final upgrade, not the first four)
Ragnarok Online had 6 (if you only count the final upgrade, not novice and first class) before Comodo and then Rebirth
WoW had 8 (9?) before DKs

on Zikel with a ton of friends.. got the names Csiko and Chi.

>>3400049
WoW had 8 each side when it was good, 9 when it became medicore and 10 when it became utter shit.
But before I derail this thread: back to AION

>>3400060
>with a ton of friends
I though we were getting a /jp/ legion.

I know, we are too few for that ;_;

The torrent for the beta is slow. Any direct download that doesn't involve paying a subscription fee?

>>3400033
You're good.

Remaking my Saaya char. What do you guys think?

Archer reserved as a Ranger herpderp

>>3400079
My recommendation: http://www.filefront.com/14444739/Aion-Open-Beta-Client/

If it's too slow for you, try:
http://www.gamershell.com/download_50480.shtml
http://www.fileplanet.com/201991/200000/fileinfo/Aion-Game-Client

You need to register for the second one, though. It's free if you just download.

>>3400120
>>3399998 here

That's pretty much what I went for, too. Well, it's pretty close at least.

>>3400120
Hair 44 is best hair.

>>3399861
>to determine if I even like it before I buy it.
Do you even read posts?

oh yes, obligatory

>>3400206
no time for love

>>3400202
Point is that all the private servers allow you only to create a character and explore the game world, but that's all you can do. No NPCs, mobs and other ingame content.

To the people who want to try it before shelling out 50 bucks, try with Chinese Aion. Download the client, register and you can play for 5 hours for free. Google it.

lol

>>3400225
Now you're just making shit up

Looks a bit plain.

>>3400239
No, I experienced it myself.

Make their chins rounder and shorter. Everyone has the same chin.

What do you think?

>>3400206
Oh god please no.

>>3398464
She looks a bit like Suzume.

Can't you make a loli in this game?

Is /jp/ going to make a guild somewhere?

>>3400324
You can.

>>3400327
I don't know about the NA servers but the EU friends are befriending on Spatalos

>>3400357
Count me in. I'll find them soon enough. The guild's name is probably going to be something like Bawson's Creek, or Japanese Birds, etc.

>>3400327
People on NA servers are few and scattered. Unless we all go to one server, attempting to make a legion is futile on NA region.

Has everyone's copy shipped yet? My CE is scheduled to arrive on Monday.

>>3400331
Someone make a loli and post here here

>>3400331

EU-Spatalos, final and the only destination

I've downloaded the Open Beta client to see if this runs on my PC or not, but looks like I'm having some problems with my video card (blinking black textures, lol RADEON 9200). Maybe I won't be able to be with you guys, see you later or next time damn, but I wanted to play with you guys on Spatalos so much

>>3400033
I like that haircut too, but after using it I didn't like it from the back so much.

I went with the very long ponytail which I believe is hair 33. I wish more hairstyles were as long as that one.

Spatalos, but which faction?

>>3400465

Elyos.

>>3400434
sold.

>>3400565
Enjoy being a copy of 99% of your server.

>>3400575
Even better.

>>3400586
Actually, I just said that randomly, but I wish what I said was true.

I just bought a second collector's edition for my sister. First time I will ever play an MMO with someone else.

Haha, the smallest chest size is still fucking giant tumors.

>>3397531
>2GB RAM
>implying most people here have 2gb of ram or more.
no wonder why all the butthurt.

My 2 year old laptop runs this game fine so I don't see what everyones problem is.

It's got laptop dual core 2ghz with an 8600m and 2 gigs of ram.

Anybody got a link to download the japanese client?
plaync.jp doesn't like foreign IPs and I can't find a proxy stable enough to download the whole fucking thing.

>>3400619
People like you need an "ingrown breasts" mod. Where instead of breasts growing outwards they cave inside the body.

Fuck being flat, go into negative breast sizes!

>>3400669

And why are you trying to get the Japanese client? Would you prefer having to read Japanese all the time while playing?

>>3400645
What, you don't?
Also, multitasking.

>>3400719
Just to grab the voices. I'd simply get the voice pack, but as far as I know it doesn't have the cutscene voices (even though said cutscenes suck, but hey what the hell)

For Japanese voice acting - http://letspalapala.blogspot.com/

Female seiyuu include Kana Ueda and Ai Nonaka.

>>3400734
http://letspalapala.blogspot.com/2009/07/aion-japanese-voice-pack.html

>>3400753
>>3400759
Wait a second. The voice pack includes cut scenes?

don't know if it was already mentioned but /v/ decided lumiel for elyos and zikel for asmodian.

>>3400770
It did, but one of the patches broke some of the voice ordering. Right now, the cutscenes and tutorial voices are in English until the Japanese client is updated to the American version.

>>3400781
I'll wait until the next moonspeak release. October 13, was it?

How do you like it?


Also, Hong -> Elyos Spatalos?

Why is there two downloads and what do they each do?

Suggestions for /jp/ Legion names on Spatalos? My friend and I were going to make Violent Semen Inferno but that was just for us.

I sure hope not everyone is max level by the time I get my game.

>>3401464
what is keeping you from reserving your name?

>>3401468
I already have my names, had Croatia reserve them.

But I'll have to wait until 25th for it to be shipped.

I'm in for a /jp/ legion on Spatalos.

>>3401457
Enjoy your name being reported and deleted.

>>3401480

Most faggots will be 1-25 by then. The 'hardcore' people who sit at home all day doing nothing but grindan will probably be 30-35 with may the odd few people getting to 40. There's really no rush really, I'll be playing it for a few hours each day but I won't be sitting on it 24/7.

>>3401490
thats what you say now...

A bunch of guys playing as girls in a Korean grinding game? It's like I'm in Hotglue again.

I am wondering what the best EC alternative to Lumiel would be, but everyone seems to be spread out in random servers.

>>3401485

I couldn't care less. I fucked with Blizzard with guild names too and I had a laugh getting friends joining it. Maybe we could try Hot Glue since that was Mabinogi name used before it turned to shit and renamed to Derp.

What about the Japanese Birds that were mentioned before?

>>3401492

I've played Chinese Aion before and I know what I'm getting into. Apart from the initial rush to get out of the first 2 zones I'm in no hurry and neither is my friend who is a casualfag.

>>3401490

>may

Maybe*

>>3401490
I usually don't play for more than 3-4 hours a day either, so yeah, I hope there will still be someone to level with ;_;

>>3401512
I like that name.

>>3401499
EC?

>>3401514

You'll be fine. Most people will still be relatively low and you wont want to group until you at least get out of the starting zone anyway.

>>3401522

What about "Why is Aion so shitty?" as the guild name? May be a bit too harsh, though.

>>3401534
and way too long.

Holy shit, what character comes to mind when you see this.

>>3401555
It all makes sense, KSDevs are AionDevs.

It looks like legion names can be up to 32 characters.

Calling East coast players.
Shall we gather at one server? Or everyone is playing with friends and can't easily change servers?

>>3402214
Don't worry, the Turks will just disconnect all together one day.

Those are just 'community' choices, nothing official. Most of those folk speak English and Spatalos contains the largest English/UK player base compared to other servers.

Also legion names so far:

Hot Glue
Japanese Birds

Any other suggestions? I'll make the legion the moment I get to Sanctum.

Both are shit. Avoiding you guys like the fucking plague.

You maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad

>>3402394
ahaha, oh wow.
Get the fuck out.

Spatalos is the only even partially "unofficial english speaking server" most of mixed nationality legions rolled there

Then why don't you stop being the internet tough guy and suggest a name? I personally hate meme related names but I'm just going off the suggestions we've had so far.

He's just trolling. Also Japanese Birds is fine, otherwise there's "hahaha.wav", "Ore wa nippon", or "Stole The Precious Thing". But we should try to find more ideas and make some kind of poll.

The dot wont work in legion names I believe. More suggestions are welcome though.

I'm quite happy with either as long as it is something I know of that will make joining easy.
