I've been playing Aion beta 2 and was wondering how many people have tried it. Next close beta is july 2. I really like the game. I'm playing a elyos sorc on Siel, Persy. Couple friends are playing there. Send me a tell if you are going to join us. You can get into beta by paying 5 dollars at gamestop.

Hiya Bigs, good to hear from you.

I'm toiling away at WoW for now, but who knows, if everything falls apart completely I may check it out.

Surprisingly is was not laggy. It ran very smooth and no bugs that I have found yet. I enjoyed it. You should give it a try. The game is beautiful. 5 bucks for beta is worth it. I'll post screenies friday.

Ive heard that the game scales incredibly well with lower end pcs. Also.. he guardians look like gundams. how can you go wrong?

Ok it scales well on slower systems, but I want to know what it would do with a new system. Judging by the trailers it looks like it could really work a newer system, is this accurate at all? I am considereing getting it but really not sure I want to start another MMO.

Damns, I remember posting a link to a trailer of this game shortly after the release of The Burning Crusade (if I remebmer correctly). Nevertheless, I remember how graphically stunning the game was as in the trailer and am looking forward to seeing some in-game videos upon release.

I think I'll wait it out this time around as I was equally excited over Age of Conan, only to be disappointed after only playing for about three months. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the combat system in AoC:HA, the game itself didn't hold my attention as well as WoW does.

I'll probably do the same with Aeon and play it for a few months. We'll see if it'll tear me away from WoW altogether or if I'll play one more casually then the other. /shrug.


I'm looking forward to some screenshots, Bigs. :D

I have been looking at this game for a while, but stopped checking up on it a bit back.

I will definitely look into the beta.
