Aion CBT Pre/Review

Mark · 07-09-2007, 09:54 AM

MMOSite.com recently posted up a preview/review of the Korean closed beta by zhanglele2004. Go check it out right now! Ignore the last sentence or so of the article. Opinions, opinions.

Hmm, it seems the closed beta was still offering players a very poor version of Aion, no pvp, summon's could only be used as tanks, no fallen.

I like the fact that two teams will be able to kill each other in dungeon's for territory or bosses.

Guess we will need to wait for an OB to really feel the game, this review wasn't that helpful, he said everything that didn't work.

Just to note: Someone commented on the article saying that the Korean CBT is July 31st, so this seems to have been a very limited testing. I actually like the idea that it's going to be more fighting-like I think.

Good find, Mark!

It just seemed like a limited preview of what may be in the CB, since it isnt scheduled for another 22 days.

I don't like how much he slated it, didnt even focus on any good points and only mentioned the bad points.

Cynthe · 07-09-2007, 10:58 AM

The first closed betas usually don't have much in them, sometimes they only release what they wish to have people test... Therefore I won't put much stock into this preview/review. It actually surprises me they are allowing closed beta to be openly discussed, or maybe it's just me. o.o

It's probably some "friends and family" guy who could care less about NDAs. But hey, it's news.

Lmao, they won't group with each other(even if there smart) but they will charge head first when one member of there race is in danger.

Ecronyte · 07-09-2007, 02:03 PM

Not a lot to "review". Wonder if E3 will reveal more information. I'm dying to know about some of Aions content and features.

The article didn't seem to impressive. It's kinda hard to bash a beta anyways. The very point of them it to work out the bugs.
