Lineage Info
Here are some random things found on an update at theKorean Lineage website:
  • Episode 11 will be mainly for mages. it will contain
    • New Magic.
    • New Magic System
    • A guy name Orin (could be Orim) will sell tons of magic.
  • The last of the originally planned episodes of Lineage, Episode 12, should come by the end of this year.
    Corrections (care of NC - USA):
  • "Episode 12 will complete the conversion of Lineage into a 3D game instead of 2D."
    This is incorrect. Episode 12 will not convert Lineage from 2D to 3D.
  • "Lineage 2 (a completely different game) will only have 6 episodes"
    This is also incorrect. There is no set number of episodes for Lineage II.

    ET = supernerd.

    And that'll be very cool.

    And all the people with the first post crap here always need a hug and then need to be beaten into unconsciousness with a very large bat.

    Honestly I'm happy for the mages, but I feel turning the game 3d will ruin the game. Most of the people who play this game generally don't have very capable computers for running games like that, and the 3d game should be left for lineage 2. The game is fine the way it is with the drawings, just my opinion ^.^

    Lineage is already pretty taxing on computers for what it is due to un-optimization... - -v 3D will require minimum of 2ghz, 3 gigs of ram. X_X

    Lineage 2 = Unreal = Lineage 2 , Lineage 2 can do whatever an Unreal can do.

    3d will just require
    P3 - 450 ~ 900 mhz
    128 Ram
    3d card (it may not need a 3d card , Open GL and Direct3d have emulators you can run.. some cards can use Open GL just no texture compression or anything fancy)
    Mice

    Hopefully the new stuff will raise Lineage from the dead.

    ITs a shame that the 3d aspect is coming in .At the momment they have issues on 300 people on server in a 2d enviroment with all the lag. So good luck adding 3d to the game because your bandwith will double :( For what its worth i would suggest a function in the game options in which you can activate 2d/3d when the comes out .Great game shame about the lag issues .

    Mages will own even more than they do now!


    The very first time i saw one of those teleport NPC's i read the text, and for a while afterwards I tried to find the ivory tower... Guess we can go there now (when the patch is out). ^^

    Both of these statements are incorrect.

    okay...about that 3D graphics requirement for lineage2...
    you can see it on the official site of lineage2 at www.lineage2.com

    the nc staff in alpha test said the following:
    (from the link http://www.lineage2.com/eng/faq/faq.html)
    requirements for playing lienage 2:
    -pentium3 800mhz or better central processor
    -256MB ram or higher
    -GeForce2 graphic card
    recommendations for playing lineage 2 by nc staff:
    -over 1ghz or better central processor
    -512MB ram or more
    -latest 3d graphic card by the opening of beta test for lineage 2

    and uh.....i dont think many current lineage1 players have 512MB ram on their computer....that would be tough to upgrade to 512MB ram...with only 3slots for ram cards, you'll have to actually buy 256MB (1) and 128MB (2) ram cards...that cost a bunch right now...maybe still expensive a year later when they beta test in north america....

    i like the old lineage1...where u can still run and play lineage on a 150mhz processor, and right now u'll need at least 350mhz to play lineage...and still having lag trouble...with 128MB ram...

    so maybe the "requirements" set by nc alpha testing staff will scare off the poor people with old comps...and cant afford to upgrade it to the "minimum"...just to play lineage 2

    im currently using a comp with p3-850mhz 128MB ram that i bought 6months ago..and now lineage2 staff say the game need p3-800mhz minimum to run, that means i'll keep lag like running lineage1 on a 350mhz computer...
    and 128MB means i cant handle the memories of the graphic files....
    i think i have a 3d card...but then again...it might not work....- -"..

    so what do you think about lineage 2 now?
