Aion Online


Recommended Posts

Trying to decide whether i want to play this game, i find $15 a month (though that's not alot of money) hard to motivate myself to do. I played WoW for about a year, if i see this game is doing well a few months after release (no end game content issues and such like AoC) then i may purchase it.

Anyone know how to activate the preselection? I preordered the game through GAME.co.uk and they are sending it out for the 25th. Does that mean I miss out? :( I sent them an email but got no damn response.

I *think* you just need to login as per usual when using beta. I think the Aion guys are activating those that preorder because of different keys. I ordered through steam but I dont think I will be getting another key.

This is guesswork though but I dont think I have to do anything other then login and make 2 chars on the days.

You are aware the game has been out for around a year in Korea and China and has several major content patches? That is the advantage that this game has over games like AoC and Warhammer Online. I posted details of what has been added in these patches a page or two back if you want to see what all was added. I don't think end game content is lacking in the slightest at this point as that's mostly what all patches focused on. One even went so far as to add 5 levels to the game just to suit the new content.

Oh, cool - once the trial comes out (or i get a buddy key) i'll give it a shot.

Not quite a year but not too far away:

Not removed, but disabled. Wait until the patch is out tonight and the game has updated for the newest version before you try to remove it.

Then follow the instructions here:

I'm personally not going to remove it just yet. I don't see much of a point. It only activates when Aion is running. Once they officially disable it it won't ever run.

Anyone can login for pre-select? I keep getting "You have been disconnected from the server"

You have to have pre ordered before a certain date to get in I think. I want to say you had to do that before Sep 9th but that doesn't seem right, because I know a lot of people have ordered within the last week and are getting in.

If you go into your account on aiononline.com it should say your account type is preorder, or standard, if you bought through Steam or the NCsoft store.

Also they had to delay the log in about 40 minutes because they needed to apply a last minute patch. No biggie. As soon as the servers were up I got in instantly.

    • Meta launches new AI glasses in 26 styles and Muse Spark multimodal capabilties by Pradeep Viswanathan Meta today announced a new line of Meta Glasses in partnership with EssilorLuxottica. The new AI glasses build on the company’s existing smart glasses portfolio, which is sold under the Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta brands. The new Meta Glasses start at just $299, are compatible with prescription lenses, and will be available in 26 styles across different colors, lenses, and frames. At launch, Meta Glasses will be available in three frame styles. The Meta Adventurer features a clean rectangular design and comes in Standard and Large sizes. The Meta Fury is a bolder frame for users who want a stronger look. Meta Glasses by Kylie is a slim oval frame designed in collaboration with Kylie Jenner. Similar to existing Meta AI Glasses, the new Meta Glasses include a dedicated action button that can be used to quickly access Meta AI or launch a favorite feature. They also feature open-ear speakers for calls, music, and more. Meta has also included a multi-mic array with wind noise reduction for calls and messaging. Users can capture photos and videos hands-free using voice commands. Meta claims more than eight hours of battery life, while the portable charging case can provide up to 40 additional hours. As expected, Meta Glasses come pre-loaded with Meta AI powered by Muse Spark from day one. Muse Spark is the first model from Meta Superintelligence Labs with improved multimodal capabilities. The same Meta AI upgrade is also now available on existing Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta Glasses in the US and Canada via an update. With the Muse Spark-powered AI assistant, Meta AI in the new glasses can provide smarter answers, understand what the user is seeing, and help with daily tasks such as calendar management and navigation. Meta also announced an upcoming feature called the dynamic photo feature, which captures multiple frames and recommends the best one. Pedestrian navigation is also coming soon to these glasses. Meta is also adding support for 14 new live translation languages, including Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, and Korean. The new Meta Glasses are available starting today through Meta.com, Best Buy, Amazon, LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, and select retailers.
    • is that a personal preference? whether it is or isn't, i get where you're coming from. i try to get and use fully open sourced applications whenever i can but there are instances where i find a superior product that is closed sourced. in these cases i do my best to learn about the company, who operates it, their background, parent and sub structure etc. to some extent, depending on "the smell test". i really believe that Syncback is really and truly something great. even if you don't use it, it's always worth a recommendation to someone else, especially if that someone else is not very computer literate. for someone of your calibre you, you'll manage just fine with Syncthing, no doubt about it.
    • I agree, especially if it is cloud sourced, like this one is.. but I wouldn't say no to a local AI assistant similar to the Zettlab one which would be really helpful with my large Photos library, but also to perform tasks like installing Docker apps rather than me having to do it via Docker Compose, but I don't think we're quite there yet. Synology Photos is somewhat AI, you can ask it to search for certain people (if you have tagged them and it will attempt to match similar photos to the person) and if you put a search term in for "cars" for example, it will show you all photos with a car.
