The next phase of Korean CBT brings many new things, out of which this very extensive, visual character creation/customization system is one.

Here is a snick peak of the character customization captured on video.



As you can see there are adjustment sliders for almost everything ? ranging from the size of your feet to the width of your cheekbones.
Many new hairstyles and textures are also being created by the Aion artist team, to be implemented simultaneously.

Moreover, 5,000 additional testers will be drawn randomly. The results will be released at 2pm on March 24th.

Test Details

We?ve been monitoring testers? feedback on the starting phase of Aion throughout Season 1. During Season 2, we aim to observe the characters leveling up to medium level, monitor the player economy, and do the server stress test.

Important Changes

1. Character Information Initialization.

For Season 2, some changes have been made to the game contents?such as the character customization system, quests, items, skills etc.?and the race selection system and the naming policies have been changed.
Going through all these changes, the decision was made that testers wouldn?t be able to play with their previous characters and, unfortunately, all the characters had to be erased.

* The ?Piece of Eternity? items that were collected through Season 1 will be recorded separately before resetting the characters, and will be used as a reference when we are selecting Guardians/Archons.

2. New regions for Elyos and Asmodians and contents for level 20~34 characters will be added.

3. Improved combat system and a direct portal (pathway between the two camps) will be added.

4. Feedback System

As before, testers can post their opinions in various ways such as in-game surveys, discussion board posts, etc.
In addition, beginning in Season 2, FGIs (Focus Group Interviews/Meetings) will be held every week so that testers can express things that they could not online.

All the opinions and questions will be seriously discussed internally and will be answered promptly through the development notes.
