It’s morning in UK-land and the blasted seagulls have once again taken it onto themselves to patrol the perimeters of our office. With one eye on the screen and one eye constantly leering towards their seemingly innocent presence (but I know better), I thought it was about time to make a sweep through our Fansite listing page. I am glad to announce that for now, only two inactive fansites bit the dust, but it still makes for a great 24 non-German, non-French fansites out there. I think it’s amazing that we have so many ambitious individuals prepared to stay up to date on the game.

Speaking of fansites, I would like to welcome a newcomer for today – AionIRC – home of the previously mentioned IRC channel of Aion (#Aion @ Quakenet). Check it out. You may also want to pay a visit to “Legions Of Aion”, a beautiful Dutch fansite that was added the other week. Find it here!

In other news I’m sure you haven’t missed the fact that Aion has broken records when it comes to beta testing in Korea. After a meagre two minutes, concurrency numbers (people playing at the same time) reached 11.000, to later ramp up to 170.000, then 200.000, and from there – well let’s just say that the trend doesn’t seem to be changing. The beta ends in a little bit less than a week and full services are announced to go live in Korea the 25th of November. On our side of the sphere we’re still on for a 2009 launch!

That’s all for today.

Edit: I forgot to mention something that some of you may find interesting. I spent the entire weekend in the office, but what was I working on?

More...

MMMMM...delicious, so it's starting to look like an early 2009 Aion release.

Don't forget to read the hidden message!

Vydos · 11-18-2008, 10:14 AM

Woot!!! Our site got mentioned in one of Ayase's realm lol.
Let's hope for an early 2009 release. Btw what hidden message?

Cynthe · 11-18-2008, 10:25 AM

Yay!!! Everything is still going smooth! I'm still crossing my fingers for a February NA/EU release, and yeah what hidden message? O.o

mnzeba · 11-18-2008, 10:29 AM

I believe the hidden message was "That’s all for today." When you click on MORE, you see the rest of the conversation.

Vydos · 11-18-2008, 10:44 AM

Yea, no wonder I didn't see it. I'm at work and the official aion site is blocked here lol

You all need to go back to spy-school for a refresher.

And @ Ayase: you were obviously working on my belated birthday/early Christamas present. Or getting a holiday contest ready to go to give out some preview event passes? Will speculating even help?

ern3sto · 11-18-2008, 03:06 PM

seems like good news to me even tho i expected the OBT to go on for a little while longer but seeing as the abyss aint part of it i guess it would be pointless anyway, now all that's left to hope is that aion will hit our HDDs early 2009

SoraNashimi · 11-18-2008, 06:36 PM
