This thread is a place where people can ask quick questions about Aion or the forums, and get their questions answered. The concept for this thread was discussed earlier Here.

Questions and answers should be kept simple and link to related discussions/material if necessary.

As far as I know, that's pretty much it. They just did some demonstrations, showing off aspects of Aion that we already know. Even the videos that they showed were the same ones off aionmeca.

Other than that, there's an Aion interview that's pretty neat.

WASD movement is fully supported.

(As opposed to only being partially supported, where merely W,S, and D work)

How come there hasn't been any new screenshots or new game-play videos released? I would have thought with E3 that just went on there had to of been stuff they haven't showed before. Maybe not though, if they didn't show anything new that is a little disappointing

Also, how come the "We Ask The Questions" threads have stopped? Have they run out of questions to ask us? or has Ayase just gotten bored with asking questions?

I think they're still trying to keep fairly quiet about. Could just be part of their marketing strategy, but none of us really know.

As the seasons shift from winter to spring and from spring, although all too slowly, to summer. As will also the routines slightly shift from our side. With this 10th round of We Ask the Questions we are taking a question break for the summer. This will give us time to compile answers and opinions from some of the forums and hopefully send some of it over to Korea. I hope for a good amount of interesting replies on this week’s questions!

Well I think they made the armor video and the environment video for a gameshow overseas, intending to also show it at E3. Unfortunately we saw them way before E3, so there wasn't anything new for us at E3.

The internet ruins everything......


Will the game be a potion popping game like RFOnline? If so, how do you intend to make PvP NOT last hours and hours just for a 1v1?

[Cocoa]

Aion will be pay to play, correct?

[Kyuzo]

Cocoa: Most likely.

I think they call that Zoolander mode.

Anyhoo, I'd like to know how much customization we can expect in Aion? The costumes and things we've seen so far have been amazing, and I like the fact that you can make armor look like older sets, cosmetically. What i really mean is, is every end-game Warriors going to be wearing the same suit of full plate? Will every Wizard worth his salt have the Amazing Wizard Hat of Wizardiness + 5. I really hate armor systems that progress linearly; suit A is better than B is better than C. Hopefully, you will have choices in how you customize your character's gear towards your personal playstyle.

[Kyuzo]

There have been some mention of being able to dye your armor, but in terms of stats, and whats better than another, you'll have to wait to hear more details. I can quote you from aionfuse about the stygma system though.

"Q: Could you explain the Stygma system? It seems to be an item combination system of some sort.
A: It's too early to reveal entirely but it's similar to the Materia system in FF7. Using a stygma you can use another player's skill as your own. For example if you find a rune or a book with the skill you can socket your weapon or armor with it."

But if I had to guess, it'll be similar to lineage 2, with linear armor upgrades.

[IBeenWaitin4Aion4SOLONG]

My colleagues and i believe that aion will be pay 2 play, becauze of its hi calibur gaming designed for the 21st century it will need some sort of funding from the gamers to sustain the awesome game.

I don't think it'll be p2p for the simple fact that I can't name a single NCSoft game that is. A few of them have premium accounts, but I can't think of any that have a monthly subscription.

[Mark]

Uhh...does CoH, CoV, or L2 ring a bell? All P2P.

[Tempermature]

I was wondering if anyone knew anything yet about weapons and armour. As i have seen in the videos, when someone is using dual swords, the swords look the same, so Im wondering if the swords are as one piece of gear, rather than having to each sword seperately. Also, somewhat the same thing as armour because NCsoft used 1 piece gear for lineage 2, so I'm just wondering of how different characters are going to be in the game, because i used to play lineage 2 and i got sick of it because all characters look the same cuz everyone has the same gear.

thanks :)
