Welcome to Aion South Africa!

Post by Admin on Sat Jul 11, 2009 12:48 am

Welcome to the small (but growing) South African Aion community!

Please take a moment to introduce yourself and tell us about how you heard of our website.

Also tell us about your plans for the game - the Legion you plan on joining, character class you are looking at playing etc.

We trust you'll enjoy your time here and hope you will join us in the upcoming beta event!

If you have any suggestions on how to improve and grow the site, please send me a PM.

Best wishes,
Admin

Hi,

I live in Pta, and have been playing GW for about 2 years now. As a GW player I heard about Aion a while back and the game looks promising, and have decided to try the game Smile

I plan to join the Elyos legion, and primarily play a sorcerer and assasin.

Yah can't wait for the beta weekend!

g'day, ladies & gentlemen,

This is your captain speaking...

I'm a 32 years young resident of Pretoria.
I've played Guild Wars for about 18 months.
Also very limited time spent in WoW.

I'm leaning towards Elyos at this stage, primary character will be a Priest (Cleric) and may look into either a Gladiator or Mage as a secondary character.

I've bought the Collectors Edition and the next beta event (17 Jul) will be my first formal introduction to the game.

Cannot wait!!

Later,
A

I didnt even know it was possible to run it without the launcher! Shocked
So, sorry, no idea on that one...

Does that blasted GameGuard thing come up at all? If not, you may be in trouble... Sad i think you'll only be permitted on the server if it runs.

But let us know anyway how it goes and if you have any problems. If we cant solve it we may have to post on one of the overseas forums.

Hi and welcome Chronic,

Yea, it's been a very fun filled weekend indeed.
I think most guys were busy playing the beta so the site was a bit dead Very Happy

Things should pick up some speed this coming week though.

Hope you enjoy it here!

Hi there Amphiptere, welcome to the forums! Very Happy

Glad to see another ex-GW (?) player here. So what made you decide to give Aion a try?
