Aion - closed beta start today

[Ellay]

Aion closed beta is starting up today, it looks pretty good, and possibly a nice contender. Is anyone planning on attempting to dual-box this in the beta to see if it is doable? Interested to hear results.

how do you get into the beta

Great i was about to do champions-online when i started reading and see some videos of this game. This game looks so awesome. The question is what class should i pick. In champions i was going to make a toon like the DK (love playing dk) melee toon with spells. This game doesn't have this though. So I am between Sorcerer, Assassin, and Spirtmaster.

I applied for beta.. i would love to try it! But i really want to know if it can be effectively multi boxed!

Apparently you need to pre-order the game to get into the closed beta which opens today. There might be another route. Was wondering if anyone slapped down the cash to do so haha.

Apparently it can be boxed well, there has been serious fights about it because some folks are already boxing it.

And of course there is the usual idiocy where some try to link botting to boxing.

The Launcher supports it

Also from NCSoft :
"The stance from our side has traditionally been, to my knowledge, that multi-boxing is tolerable as long as you don't modify the client in any way. You also need to always be at the screen, not run botting software and not use it to take advantage of other players. Which sort of narrows its usability down. All in theory, all in theory, though. Let me forward this to see if it's intended to stay the current way or not, or if anything special applies/will apply for Aion."

I always try any new MMOs.. never know when the next best thing will be out. I will give this a shot as well. I mean I bought two CEs of warrhammer and Conan. And I do not play either of those now. But I get the CEs because I can afford it, and just in case I end up staying hehe. So yes.. i just slapped down the cash for Aion CE so i can get in beta lol

if i like it. ill get another CE and try to box it 8)
