Aion screenshots (IMG heavy)

[Ana]

FFXIV is insanely pretty too!! But yes it require one heck of a machine if u want it to be pretty.. off u can play it on low settings but then IMO the hole point kinda goes away

The good thing about Aion is that i dont have to pay for the game which is why im playing it atm - sad that they dont support any other os then windows :/

[Ana]

VERY large screendump this time

Are there a pet class in aion?

Yes the spiritmaster. They can control fire/wind/earth and other spiritpets

Here are Neeka with her first pet - a fire elemental thingie




windspirit.. aww its the squee pet.. ALmost reminds me of a beast pet... d´awww very happy about this




A mirror portal - i could not enter it.. but it looks pretty





A small and very cute blue lizzard





Very funny questline.. getting turned into a very pretty yellow parrot and go spy on pirats





A closer look on how you fly between places - i love it







Scenary:













The ceeling in a building pretty




Big named derpy turtle... sooo adorable spec the shot with him with his head in the water








Portal to a grp zone.. and since i play alone atm i could not enter.. but pretty portal

Another huge screenshot dump


wonder if anyone but myself accually love to take screenies in this game - but if it gets to much feel free to say that i should stop


Very high in the sky flies these lovely creatures.... cannot fly that high (yet?) myself to see them properly




Moon/earth/planet in the sky





yup I´m a hunter at heart so beastscreenie dump inc - if Aion ever introduces a hunter like class which can tame wild pets ... im sold - even more then i am now

Beetle type pet





Rabbitkangoruuu... soo cute!!




Underwater beast - only sticks it´s head above water.. hard to see but also very cute




My favorite little blue geko.. just needed another picture




Not quite sure what this is... bat/mosquito hybrid mutation thingie?





cuteness Squirrel




Catlike creature.. was hard to get close without getting attacked... Will try to get a better shot at these. Accually quite gracefull creature







And another new addition to my " ohh im soo gonna tame that if i could" list. I think its some sort of salamander






Monkeys... not a pet i would tame if i could hehe








Nontargetable spiders which sometimes just come down from buildings.... scares the bejeeves out of me sometimes





not sure what this is excatly..






And doompiggies found their way into this game too







A jackal mom and her baby




These was hard to get a picture at too since they run away when u get to close - but i manage to get a fast shot before they ran away







Pokemonturtle?




and i think this is an armadillotype of beast






a snaaake its a snaake ( no badger or mushrooms around it sadly )







Dessert eagles/vultures





Maggots




Scorpion






World largest anteater - they accually have a very long tounge which then use to lick the ground so i desided they were anteaters




Amasingly detailed buffalo compared to the first area






and this was the beast screenie dump for this time

[Rhyela]

No, I like seeing all your pics, so keep posting them!!! I played Aion for a while, so it's refreshing to see someone as excited about it as I used to be. My excitement is now poured into Guild Wars 2, but nevertheless, I like seeing pics from good ol' Aion.

[Vephriel]

I'm enjoying the pictures as well. I couldn't get into Aion myself, but it's nice being able to see the creatures without playing it. I've always loved mob designs in games regardless of if I play them or not.

[Meggers]

Plus, its your thread! You goose, post them all you want.

[Ana]

Two new Charecters I just love the game so much that i got a sponsor to get me a gold membership

Trying to keep my names from Startrek Voyager so fare i managed


Eudana - cleric. Love her mohawk and her very reptile like eyes








Illidaria - Ranger sister of Eudana. Not as rebellike as her. Much more tranquil and a bit darker in the skin. Also in love with her look









The Aion family - for now










Some mini pets.. Cute vs. evil












I did promise myself not to fill my screenshot folder of ppl with awesome mogs/gear but just one. I really like what this guy have done with his gear




This is an animation which your charcter use when they stand still in the rain - i find it quite fun.





Rest of it todays dump are scenaries and other mobs then beast

[Sukurachi]

so EU Aion still has a pay option?

it seems that the NA version no longer even offers the possibility of paying.
no gold membership, not even the "legacy" membership (those people even lost the perks they had for their Legacy membership). it's now "all free". period.

[Ana]

Yeah i could go into the aion shop through my charecter in the game and join the aion lounge and set up montly payment

you can also buy aion coins and that way buy a gold membership. have you tried going into the shop on your char in game?

yes, on the NA servers, you can buy items, but not membership.

there is no "gold membership" anymore.

maybe the EU servers will follow suit eventually and do away with paid membership?

[Ana]

im on an eu server and i have paid membership You cannot be a lounge member either?


and another new class got introduced.. the gunslinger VERY big guns and some lovely design for guns

http://na.aiononline.com/news/4.0/gunsl ... n_aion_4.0!

time for some more screenshots - just think i will upload them this time without a comment to each feeling a bit tired this evening

[Rhyela]

Those cat/weasel things are pretty neat with the long spikes on their back.

[Ana]

I think they are called Meerkats

some companion pets some of them are a bit to lovely dovey for me specially with the bowties many of them got hehe






Spidertunnel - you accually had to "figth" the spiderweb in order to make it through.




not sure which catogory these would fall under














Basillisk.. very different from WoW´s bassilisk... and im not quite sure how i feel about them yet.. Some of them comes in some lovely colors.. will try to get more shots of the more vibrant colors






Scorpion.. highlighted with cursor





I think these are some type of arachnids.. they remind me of the nerubians in wow







and to finish off todays screendump.. a lovely shot of a cadaver in the desert

[Vephriel]

I really, really love the diversity of the creatures in this game. I wish I could get into it just to explore and see them, but I didn't like the playstyle at all. It's fun seeing these screenshots at least.

[Sukurachi]

There's another thing I discovered this week about Aion that I most definitely do NOT like.

It installs a little program called "Pando Media Booster" (PMB.exe).

This program just gobbles up your ram and your processor. It's a hidden program.

My computer had slowed to a crawl this week because of it, it was making work next to impossible.

The second I found and removed that program, my computer was back to its sprightly self.

So I think I've crossed Aion off my "to play" list.

Ergh, League of Legends installs that as well which is one of the reasons I didn't keep it, though I enjoyed the bit I played. I didn't notice that with Aion, but I had it for less than a day before uninstalling everything. It really does mess with your computer, back when I tried LoL for the first time I was wracking my brain trying to figure out what was going on with my computer until I found it.

[Rhyela]

I could be thinking of the wrong game, but I think Aion's "security" feature also installed a benign root kit. That didn't make me very comfortable. Not sure if it's still there or not, though. Didn't know about the pmb.exe, though. If I were to get rid of it, would I still be able to play League of Legends? I love that game and I don't want to stop playing it (especially not since I finally got my coveted Mafia Graves skin!).
