Aion Continues To Soar With Update 3.9

In preparation for Aion's 4.0 expansion set for this June, publisher Gameforge has released Update 3.9 for the fantasy MMO. Gameforge who has amassed over 3,000,000 accounts since the games Free-to-play transition has brought in some new content, as well as some enhancements to existing features.

The update includes a new instance called “Corridor of Betrayal” where players' Daevas will attempt to loot treasure from a hidden stronghold. To ensure players have plenty of space for all the new dungeon loot, the inventory system has been expanded upon so that quest items, coins, insignias and tickets will automatically be stored in separate storage cubes

For those of you that are new to AION, or would like to level up a new character undisturbed, the update also brings a new beginner's server. Any character created on a regular server, up to level 55, can be transferred to the beginner sever to participate in PvE adventures without the fear of being a victim to the harsh reality of open PK. When you're ready your character can return to its regular server at any time.

And finally, for those of you looking for something on a grander scale, there is now a new integrated instance server. This server allows for AION players to contest areas together in selected group instances, across all server boundaries. Participants will be rewarded with more experience points and a higher chance defeated opponents will drop items.

You can read the full patch details by visiting the official site here.

Is itpossible to play aion (ncsoft) from europe or do they IP block? Is it playable or is the delay/lag too high?

People stating that "Gameforge severs aren't official" don't know what they are talking about. Actually it was NCSoft that notified EU players to move their account with Gameforge, and you had the option to migrate your account from NCSoft to them.

No company will ever give you an option to migrate to some private server.

Gameforge is the European publisher now. They ARE official, you just can choose to use the NCSoft servers instead.

I tried aion like 5 times. For a 40 gig file it is not worth it to download unless you have the space. Also very slow to start. slow toon leveling system & lot's of grinding. Awesome that in all the reviews i read it is not p2win & it has improved a lot but the time it takes to download all the updated & the space it requires it is not worth it.

Avoid Gameforge. Stick with the NCSoft NA servers and don't let the temptation of pre-4.0 update suck you in. It's not worth it.
