Eye on Aion Community News
- Jul 20, 2010

The news comes from Aion community and the content is as follows:

It’s been a long week here at NCsoft with the server merges, character transfers, final preparations for San Diego Comic Con, and the big Aion®: Assault on Balaurea™ announcement to name a few. Miss something? No worries! They are taking another look at a couple topics players might have overlooked.

Aion: Assault on Balaurea Announcement

All Aion players in North America and Europe can begin exploring the world far beyond the territories of Asmodae and Elysea starting September 7, 2010.

Dash of the Daevas

When the servers came back online after the server merge, all Daevas were given a set of goals to accomplish for a chance to win amazing in-game prizes. Many of these have already been completed, yet still more remain to be discovered!

Free Character Transfers

Our Character Transfer account service has opened and character moves will be free for a limited time. The Aion official will be transferring characters that sign up for this service every Wednesday during scheduled maintenance. Sign up today!

Fight on the Right Side

During the free character move period (from July 15, 2010 to August 25, 2010), players characters can score some extra loot by making sure they’re fighting on the right side. Now that the servers have been merged, please make sure that players have characters of only one race—either Elyos or Asmodian—on each of the servers. If players do, they are golden. If not, sign up quickly for free character moves to transfer some of your characters so that you have only one race on a server.

Community Starts with YOU

After the server merges they have come to a time of transition. During this time, the official encourage players to embrace this transition as a chance to strengthen the server’s community. It is easy to fall into the trap of excluding or rejecting players or Legions because they weren’t here previously on this server and “don’t know how we do things.” Just as they are resetting the Abyss forts, this is a chance to reset, regroup, reorganize, and strengthen your community.

Guildwars: Vicroty! White Mantle Defeated!
- Jul 14, 2010

The White Mantle, the regime that has ruled Kryta since the charr invasion, has been defeated. The combined forces of the Shining Blade and Lionguard, with the aid of foreign volunteers, incredible asura technology, and the Ebon Vanguard, have finally broken the might of the religious cult in what will undoubtedly be referred to the Battle of Lion’s Arch.
"This is a glorious day for Krytans, and for freedom,"declared a bloodied Livia, the highest ranking survivor of the Shining Blade to the weary freedom fighters who gathered around her in the aftermath of battle.“All our suffering, all our pain – it’s all been for today.”
Through her representatives, Princess Salma has extended her congratulations and gratitude to all Krytans and our loyal friends for their great efforts in reclaiming Kryta. Salma will make a public proclamation in several days those who know of such things are certain that she will be declared sovereign ruler of Kryta.
Now, healers tend to the wounded, soldiers bury their comrades, and many former rebels return to their farms and settlements. The war is over.

ROM: Star & Flame – the first two player mounts
- Jul 09, 2010

From the blood and tears of Ayvenas himself comes the newest addition to the menagerie of mounts in Taborea.

First there was the fiery winged "Flame". Resting on the hills of the Howling Mountains, Ayvenas, the maker injured himself and the blood falling to the ground became a winged horse. Running across the fields the horse's burning hoofs threatened to scorch the earth. So Ayvenas felt sorrow and cried a tear that itself became another winged horse, that he called "Star" healing the earth under its gallop.

These new two player mounts are available in the Item-Shop between Wednesday, 07.07 2010, 17:00h CET / 4pm GMT and Friday, 09.07 2010, 23:59h CET / 10:59pm GMT.

How the above 2-Player Mounts work

If you own one of our brand new 2-Player mounts, just mount up. Choose the player you want to join you. By clicking with your right mouse button on his portrait and choosing “invite for a ride” you can get him to join you. The chosen player will receive a popup menu and may either accept or discard the invitation. Once the player has joined you, he will have a user interface to dismount at any given time.

WoW: That scary GearScore/Real ID screenshot is fake!
- Jul 09, 2010

Normally we wouldn't take an opportunity just to debunk an edited screenshot, but given how riled up people already are over Blizzard's upcoming forum change, it seems like it's necessary in this case.

There's a screenshot circulating, which is cropped above, that shows a new "beta version" of the infamous GearScore mod that is able to see your Real ID name -- that is, your real name -- just by mousing over your character. It's not real. We reported on a possible security loophole in addons that could, with enough black magic, reveal your Real ID name -- but this isn't what's happening here.

The creator of the image has admitted that the screenshot isn't real. You can officially cease linking it around and freaking out. We know that the idea your real names being on the forum might be scary, but it's important to keep a level head and not let fear take hold of your behavior, no matter what side of the issue you're on.

The important thing is that Blizzard knows how you feel. Post on the forums and let them know, cancel your account (or don't), and if you want to opt out of Real ID altogether.
