Like writing about Lineage II? We are looking for a few people to write articles for our blog!

Great :D

CMS is getting close to being ready :) Hopefully by this weekend will have it in place.

It will be retail C5 clan system.

I don't really have the time to list differences right now :P Check the link I posted on the previous page. You can change back and forth between the official patch notes for C5 and Interlude it will give you a very clear picture of the changes between C5 and C6 :)

Your welcome :)

Copy your Lineage 2 install folder to another directory than uninstall through Control Panel. re-install using C5. You can still launch the other version of L2 from the folder you copied over to the other directory.

Closed beta begins tomorrow.

Which version? My 2008 works fine just need to enable TCP.

If you want to brush up on your C5 :P >> http://legacy.lineage2.com/news/chronicle5_01.html No there will not be any npc buffers. The rest has been pretty much answered :)

Thanks adsfa :) The dual-box thing is such a touchy subject it is really hard to find out what will make the majority happy. The main reason people usually want to dual-box is to have buffs all the time. What we are thinking is we may implement offline buffshops, this way buffer classes can make some money while off and people never have a hard time finding buffs. At the same time it doesn't take anything away from active buffers that want to get in a duo or party and go lvl as people will want that over coming back to town every 20 minutes. The offline shops also raise the amount of Adena that goes into the server economy which is a great thing. If we implement offline buff shops than no boxing would be allowed. What do people here think about that?

The decision was just made today on the rates which will be base rates of 7x. We feel this is the most balanced number based on the feedback we have received over the last 2 weeks.

Just use the express version 2005, 2008, etc.. I would be surprised if your databases reached the cap of 4GB.

We have a solid list for closed beta it will be starting in a few days. Again there is no eta on how long it will last. we have a lot of testing to do.

Seems like many feel the same way :) Work is still rolling along well. Have some C5 clan stuff to fix up and more script work but going very well!

We have started taking closed beta signups. Check the forums if you want to signup and help test.

Will be a few weeks until the main site is ready :) We are coding a L2OFF based CMS from scratch so takes some time but should be worth it. We look forward to your spam :D

Finished off the client updater today. Work is rolling a long real nice. CMS is looking beautiful!! Starting on our client protection next :)

Should be a little more considering we have had more than that on the forums already :P Hopefully it turns out well!

Thought I would login for a look as the old eko was some good times but the updater fails after downloading engine.u? Or something like that it fails to extract due to corruption.

Will have to see how it goes. I know of right now 2 large clans (50+) that are planning on coming and they say if they come some of the other large clans will as well. But they won't announce their intentions until we are much closer to a live date. We will see.

One of the beauties of having our own extender is the freedom to extend the game if we see it is needed to keep interest :) Really there is not much we can do about emo quitters. We have not completely decided on the dual-box rule as of yet and some it will be based on the rate we choose. If we do choose no-dualbox than we will implement offline buffshops so buffer classes can make some cash while offline and people can always get buffs.

Your going to give more information than that to get any real bites.

I have talked with a few people about Insomnia and from what they have said Insomnia failed because of a ddos that would not let people login to the server for days, not because of lack of interest or a bad setup. Rates are still up on the air. there is a poll active on our forums so if you are interested in seeing a certain rate make sure to vote on the poll.

Of course :)
