what is the difference of the Gameforge and the NCsoft Version of the Game?

Hi Guys,

I just saw on some reviews that this Version of Aion suffers from some dumb changes, so before I start downloading this one (its the Gameforge one right?)
I wanted to know if the Ncsoft version is better and also available in Europe.

thanks in advance

It depends were you live and your ping.

I am on gameforge servers but I have tried the NA servers but the ping was too high for me. (can check ingame by doing /ping) Over 300 on NA servers, EU servers is around 50 average. This makes a huge difference in a game where combat can be as fast as it is for PVP and PVE.

Yes there has been changes the players are not happy with but there are also good changes as well such as the "hero rewards" for lv66+ which give lodus stars and recovery teas for extra XP. Gameforge also said they are looking for ways to add more all powerful stones to more dungeons (which is the item people were most angry about). I think in time things will balance out again.

The other issue about NA version is the time zone difference might make it harder for you group with other players not to mention all the timed based events like dredgion and seiges.

Deyla is the busiest server atm (which I am also on) but if you want one of the new servers Grendal is populated too. Both are English but also have players from other EU countries
