With the release of Goddess of Destruction and conversion to Truly Free (F2P), how many of you will be returning to or staying with the game?
How will you use the Truly Free model to your advantage?

with how little i got to play keeping the account active wasn't economical. However with the new F2P system, I'll be back when I get a spare hour or two to kill

Not sure, I'll have to read what the limitations are on the F2P model. I might pull Aegle's side back...

We will be pretty casual players but you should see Scott and I around.

Seeing as how Blizzard suckered me into a years subscription of WoW so I could get diablo3 "free", I probably won't be playing

Hmm... I don't know if I'll have time at all. Moving back to Brazil with my parents due to a temporary separation (and possible divorce, although I'm hoping not for that) from my husband, and I'm not sure I'll have time for 2 MMOs.
But anyone has any link on what the restrictions for F2P are? I guess I should try and at least update my client.

But anyone has any link on what the restrictions for F2P are? I guess I should try and at least update my client. There are no restrictions for the F2P. No level limits or anything. More information and FAQ can be found here: truly-free.lineage2.com/trulyfreewww.lineage2.com/gd/play-your-way.phpThe client has also changed it is a unified system including all NC soft games. The link for it can be found here: www.lineage2.com/en/game/download/installation/you want to click the NC Soft launcher.

Yeah I tried the NCSoft patcher. Was getting 35 kb/s speeds... so I'm trying a full download on the client that they say on that page that it would take me less, 4 hours, but still not like a week or two.
We'll see if it works like that.
Thanks for the links. I'll give it a look. Not sure if I'll have time though, but it would be nice to come and see the game again even if just for 5 minutes or so lol...

Not sure I'll manage, I have my hands full as it is honestly. And I also still need to finish downloading the client... then update it when November 30th comes...
No promises. I might check how things are, but I doubt I can really come back.

Thanks, Spuddy. For now I'm on a "break". We'll see what happens when I go back there in April.

Hello,
Quite a few names I remember, currently downloading the high five client, may take a day or 2 lol, getting poor speed from official site.
Anyhow looking to come back with this f2p, hopefully my characters will still be alive.
Hope everyone I know has been ok these last 2 years that I've been gone.

So I donwloaded the Freya client... installed it. So I can't really open it from the actual L2 thing anymore, I have to use the NCSoft launcher...
And it has an update... and it's going on with the most sluggish speed I've ever seen...
So... yeah... not sure I'll actually manage to update this anytime in the next... few weeks or so. There's NO other way to update the client nowadays apart from using the NCSoft launcher?

That is a shame.. my eyes would bleed if I saw dial up speeds on my PC. It's amazing how far we have come from what was my original V.22bis modem.

Well my maximum speeds are 700 kb/s. Which somehow I got this going just by opening the launcher as admin...
Strange things...

ok so I patched, logged in yesterday. Giran is sooooooo crowded that my poor laptop takes ages to load everything.
But I don't think I know how to play anymore. I'd have to start something from the beginning to relearn if I ever were to come back lol...
The good thing is, all my accounts are all nice and haven't been touched!

i think you'll like the new game. theres lots of quests to do and lots of very pretty animations. buff animations, casting animations, lots of very cool new visuals.
also, it doesnt cost you anything to start up a fresh account if you dont want to delete any of your existing characters. nobody's saying you have to keep it, ditch it later if you find stuff bugs you.

yeah I'm taking Spuddy's advice and creating a brand new account to start something from scratch.
I won't have much time to play anyway, I'm already playing something else but it's free. It's there. So if I ever feel nostalgic, even if just every now and then, I can come and log in. But first I need to learn how to play again...
