Adena — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 21:48:52 +0000

Welcome on Lineage 2 Adena Blog. Today something disturbing and unpleasant related to Lineage 2. It’s first tragedy related to Lineage I ever noticed, most of them where related to only one game – World of Warcraft. News like boy of 15 collapsed after playing in WoW for for 24 hours or kid who burned other kid after school fight or death of young women snowly in World of Warcraft.

Did you heard about young Russian man who killed other Lineage II player? Well, check out this video. Some people have problems with distinction, fiction from reality and this may lead to similar tragedies. Well, playing to long may be very dangerous to your health, that’s why you should have longer break from Lineage or any other online game. I remember my first session in Lineage, i played around 9-10 h all week. Well, it was long time ago, now i play less. Anyway enough talk. Enjoy this video!

Next time i will add small guide about Lineage adena, now I’ve got not enough information on this subject, I need to gather and develop all…

Lineage III Source Code Stolen

Adena — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 16:06:50 +0000

South Korea company, one of the leaders in MMORPG development, NCSoft is informing that the source code for Lineage III was stolen by former employees and later sold to a Japanese competitor (hard to tell which one). According to Seoul Metropolitan police, 7 ex-employees of NCSoft are suspected in this incident.

Korean police is speculating that the theft likely occurred during a long series of job interviews with an unknown Japanese company in February. Probably then those former NCSoft employees provided examples of their software work to this Japanese company. Police is currently working which Japanese company is involved in crime.
Those 7 ex-employees are also believed to have played a part in the leak of the Lineage III program design.

Well in this situation we must wait longer for Lineage III, it’s hard to tell but releasing date can be around 2011. This is sad. Really sad. How could they sell source code? They thought that no one will realize that they sell it?

Woman arrested for deleting Lineage account

Adena — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 11:04:02 +0000

A Japanese woman was arrested some time ago for wiping account in Lineage. Girlfriend logged into ex-lover’s Lineage account with his username and password. Well you know what happened next…She just erase all data. Oh man its very scary, I’m not geek or something but if my girlfriend would done such a thing…Well, I would be very angry. How to trust anyone when your women can delete your MMORPG character-avatar? Few months of your playing can disappear in one moment :/.
When her ex- boyfriend noticed this fact, he reported the misuse of his account to the police.
“I did it as revenge for breaking up with me,” she told police.
Earlier, couple actually met through playing the game, love blossomed in the online RPG and the lovers soon met up.

Actually is hard for me to imagine that kind of revenge, how cruel that women is to do such thing to her ex? Watch out guys for your game data, passwords and username data. And of your memory card for PSX or other console.

FBI Raids Lineage II Pirates

Adena — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 12:43:59 +0000

The FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) conducted few raids across the country, closing down Lineage II pirating site L2Extreme.
NCsoft declared:

L2E was providing an estimated 50,000 gamers with unauthorized access to Lineage II, costing NCsoft million of dollars a year, the company said in a press release.

NCsoft North America general counsel, Matt Esber said “Operations like this essentially are defrauding customers by stealing from companies like NCsoft,” Mr Esber also said, “We’re extremely pleased that the FBI has worked with us so diligently to bring this particular case to its current state and we want our customers to understand that we will continue to fight similar operations in the future in order to maintain the integrity of all NCsoft games.”

Well i digg out this news from the past, it was 2 year ago. What is interesting there are no problems now in such a matter, i remember one very small private server for World of Warcraft but there were around 50 gamers on it so it wasn’t big problem.
I’ve found this article on kotaku.com and one guy have point, Tonaku: It would have been way cooler if they actually did the raid online in the game…he he well i wonder myself how FBI guys are spending time, maybe fishing or maybe they are like to grind monsters on Lineage raids?!

Chinese hacker and Lineage II

Adena — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 12:34:40 +0000

According to vnunet.com, Japanese authorities have arrested some time ago a Chinese student for hacking into the online game Lineage II. This Chinese guy has crafted a special bot that strip a player’s characters from armor, items, weapons and adena. Later he just sell all stuff on auction websites and later completed all transaction in the game. Other players who encountered this Chinese hacker thought they saw a regular player. But as the two would engage in a ferocious fight, the hacker proved invincible and would leave his pray unable to continue playing in Lineage. Mike Crouch who is PR manager for NCSoft, said that “Bots are the biggest problem we face with Lineage II”, “We kick people out if they use bots. “ – he added.

NCSoft is scanning game to catch all hackers using illegal software and doing illegal activities but bots are becoming more and more complicated and complex. Well very shady things happen in the world of online games, these days…watch out for hackers in Lineage anyway.

Account safety is one of the top issues in the gaming world out there today. Some MMORPG have done the virtual on-screen keyboard to protect against loggers, while others have simply a two password system… Is this method effective? I think not, because if the key logger obtained your primary password, then why would it not have your second password?

New method to improve security of our game accounts, is used by Blizzard – called “the Blizzard authenticator” – generates a random password for you to input each time before using your normal password to access your account. There are two ways Blizzard offers this account protection, and that is with a small device no larger than your average key chain.

Hacker and thieves are the biggest threat lately in MMORPGs. That’s you should keep your account data on a paper, somewhere safe. DO NOT share with anybody with your account data! Even when you receive mail from game company related to your MMORPG – it’s probably fake and they want to steal your account!
