I'm so sad. Another week from head start weekend and I've gotta start all over again.
And the worst thing is that I still haven't made a final decision on what to play.
I ended up with a level 18 Templar (Tank), 18 Cleric, 18 Sorcerer and 18 Assasin.
Each and every one of them were a total blast to play.... ARGH!!!!!!! I need to make a decision.....

Me too...I had fun playing...ended up with a lvl 16 Sorcerer and a lvl 6 Scout. Sorcerer was a blast although I did like the Spirit Masters pets, and I also noticed the Rangers seem to have some sort of wolf travel form and also a killer bow skill some sort of rapid fire  Decision time will be a tough one... Here is my toon lvl 16 Sorcerer  _________________

Since I'm totally new to the MMORPG world, if I were to buy the game, when I start playing, do I only get one character? From the sounds of the last to posts, I would only get one.

No, if I remember counting right I believe you had 8 character slots, which means you could have 1 character of every class...sCary can confirm that for me? But what sCary and I were referring to is which character do we want to start with and spend the most time on initially leveling up. If you start a character and end up not like the skills are whatever you are free to stop and create a new one at any time. Though in sCary's case it looks like he is going to level them up all at once that is some gaming bro.  _________________

Yes, 8 slots per server I believe. So, to clarify, even if you had 8 toons created, you could create even more you would just have to do it on another server (Say you wanted to try the other faction for instance). Yea, my comment was just on which toon I want to focus on for live. I will focus my attention on that one main toon until I get him fully leveled and then get bored of it and decide to roll up a different one.  I think I've decided to go with the Cleric for serveral reasons. 1. The group I'll be leveling with in the late teens on up are now short a healer so it'll make leveling faster and easier. 2. Playing a healer that wears Chain will be nice for a change! From what I read, even though they generally get focused on, they're one of the troughest classes to take out in PvP. Should be a blast Plus they still do very respectible damage as well.

Hi pals. I am playing Aion as well. CG and Waterboy prolly remember me. I am Scary's pal and played CoD with you guys.
I am going to start off with a Gladiator.
I did not level as high as Scary on all 4 of my toons but I did do 16 Glad, 13 Enchanter, 11 Sorc, 11 assassin.
Game looks great and feels good too. Flying combat is going to be insane. Probably will suck for me as a gladiator but oh well I will adapt.
Scary and myself will find out tonight what server we are playing on for release. I can tell you we are going to play Elyos, that much we already know. Big guild meeting tonight in vent so we will find out the release server name then.
BTW I saw Scary post you needed CE to get the early head start. If I am not mistaken you only need to pre-order to get the headstart. You only need the CE if you want the extra perks like wings that give more flight time, a xp bonus ring and some other minor things.
Hope to see you guys playing.

From what I've read, yes. Therefore pre-selection can start the 18th.
If I get the game, play for month, and don't renew right away, say maybe a couple of weeks later, I start back right where I left off right?
My schedule has it's lulls and heavy times so I would only want to subscribe during periods I know I will get to play.
Thanks.

Official Release is the 22nd. Head Start is the 20th (If you preordered. Early toon creation is the 18th (Tomorrow).
As for the pay aspect. It's 14.99 a month and you pay in advance. So if you were to pay for the following month, then cancel the account, you'd still be able to play that entire month. But yes, your toon gets saved so you can renew at any given time in the future and take back up right where you left off.

Everyone that's doing the preselection tomorrow, make sure and get the update early! The most important thing in this update? NO GAMEGUARD!!!!!!!!!! I'm sure many of you saw the post from Knight linking a scrub complaining that it's spyware blah blah blah... Well that was complete bull BUT the program is kinda crappy (like PunkBuster for CoD sucks arse really) so this is awesome news! http://na.aiononline.com/en/news/aion-l ... ion-1.html

Yea, they're trying to keep things evened out evidently so that they don't just end up with a couple of servers that are over capacity and some that are low pop. I'm starting to get nervous that they have no clue how amazingly popular this game is going to be in NA and EU. Hope they can handle it. Here's a link with up to date server status and info: http://na.aiononline.com/en/news/presel ... tatus.html
