    Least its not a Ragnarok Online attempt at F2P. Might actually bring people off Private Servers to play on it.

    Best mmo experience ive ever had is lineage 2. Cant wait for the update of Goddess and lineage 2 going free to play is the best move at this point.If you have never tried this game you are missing out

    Best Free 2 Play model I've ever seen. Look out for the second coming of Lineage 2.

    I have played L2 for several years (on private servers, with very low xp, I confess). I never had as much fun on anything else MMO, and I am tempted by this... maybe.

    freaking great news!!

    i've been playing this game for the past 5 or 6 years. I always loved it but there were some clan drama's or the private servers were too laggy sometimes. I also played official for 1 year. I just quit this year because there were no good private servers to play on and i could not afford a subscription.

    Best mmo experience of my life in Lineage 2. Smart move making it f2p and as people said it's gonna eradicate 90% of the private servers. And instead of donators on prive servers we'll have users who shop from the L2 Shop. Maan the nostalgia...

    Can't wait to play again!

    How do you know it's the best f2p model? Are you psychic?

    Where did you get this from? from what I understood it was exactly the opposite of their intentions.

    I did some reading on their site in anticipation of the F2P launch to get info on the game, browse the forums, read beginner FAQs.  I'm suggest that anyone who is interested in any game do the same (and most do).  It might eliminate the knee-jerk reactions seen above.

    "If you prefer using the WASD keys to move, press Alt+X to open the System menu. Choose Options, and in the Game tab, click “Enter Chat”. Click OK to save your choice. The WASD keys will now move your character.."

    That said..some more reading showed some threads where players were finding the WASD movement to be glitchy.  Maybe someone who's used it can comment?

    like most games u can use wasd but in the time i played it  most ppl used click to move, but we are talking on a time  when 2d games wasnt a bad  thing like lineage 1 and mu online...pbly is it better now

    i love lineage but tbh  pbly still will be very grindy and   sieges on a f2p...wow  that  always just blows u used to have to be in a top tier guild to even  think about go to a siege when l2 was sub based...now on f2p....will probably be  twice as hard with all those players

    some say l2 have one of the most balanced pvps  wich i think is not the case but maybe  a f2p will be good for that deserves a try for the kill them all goodness even if is not my thing....il pbly will try   l2 again but i dont have any hopes to stay...swtor and gw2 just look too good imo but l2 will always have a place at one of the most  fun  mmos

    btw my english sucks :P

    It does not matter right now, actually.

     

    WASD movement has been greatly improved in upcoming GoD expansion :)

    I have used the WASD...for about 10 seconds. It was not working right. But yeah, they may have been working on that for GoD.

    Not only you - they did. Only their time-table has been strehed a bit more because of the large number of devs leaving in 2007-2008 :(

  • JuaksJuaks Member UncommonPosts: 271

    I am going back to L2 for sure. This will reunite all people in private servers and maybe old vets as well. L2 nostalgia is tough.

    Best pvp experience for me so far. L2 is awesome and I am glad NCSoft made this clever move.

  • kenshin86kenshin86 Member Posts: 1

    Alright Since i havn't seen it mentioned yet "L3" has already been announced at g-star.. Wheather the features of GoD were meant for L3 i can't say but in any event it looks as though NCSoft has taken a bit of a different direction with Lineage Eternal back to Lineage's roots.. I for one am not a big fan of isometric, but if L3 lives up to the previous two games I'm in.

  • JinxysJinxys Member UncommonPosts: 488

    I'm pretty excited about this really. Although I'm a little unsure about GoD though, but i feel overall the changes to Lineage 2 can only be a positive thing. I played for a while on and off, and I loved the game. People would say "Argggh the community there sucks" I found the total opposite, once I found a good clan.

    Good times indeed with my Warcryer ! Looking forward to giving it a go again

    im thinking that by the time it finally does go F2P at the end of the year it isnt going to have that deep of an impact.

    By then TESO will be near release as will Shroud of the Avatar and before that, Bliss, Ein, ArcheAge, Wildstar...more MMOs than any year before it and thats not including the lesser known MMOs.
