Hello all,

Many of you have reported encountering the error message 'The client will be closed? Continue?' when attempting to select a Lineage II Classic server. This error is caused by server interruptions we are currently experiencing. Our team is working on mitigation these interruptions to our servers, but it will affect connectivity in the meantime. 

Unfortunately, we do not have an estimated time when the interruptions will subside as this issue is caused by external factors, but we will post updates as soon as we have time. In the meantime, please bear with us while we work through this. Thank you very much for your patience.

I can not login into any account - the same message "The client will be closed" everywhere.

Can you tell us how long this problem will last?

Unfortunately, we cannot as it is outside of something we control, but we will do our best to let you know when we feel the disruptions have subsided.

As stated yesterday, we are experiencing server interruptions that is causing connectivity and disconnection issues with the game. Our team is working on mitigating these disruptions, but its affects will be felt unfortunately.

The issues you may see during this time are disconnections and the inability to connect to the server of your choice causing the client to close. The error is not related to an issue with the game but currently caused by the server disruptions.

Yes, we are currently experiencing server interruptions so disconnects and connectivity issues to servers will be experienced. Our team is on it, but unfortunately, the impact will be felt.

Yes, it appears we are once again experiencing server interruptions. This is causing disconnections and also connectivity issues into the server. The team is working on mitigating it but the effects of the interruptions may continue to be felt.

@Zariguella, Dragon Pendants and the promotional associated items will no longer be on the store on March 27.

Do 100% and 50% runes stack @Hime?

Nice to see the higher level missions finally being added.

Do 50% and 100% runes stack? @Hime I don't think I saw any mention of that.

I caught Juji before he went home and... the 50% and 100% runes do stack.

@Hime We need Drop/Spoil rune 50%/100% too please.

Sure, we can check on that.

Beleth books only being removed from store or deleted from inventory as well?

Just from the store. They will stay in your inventories if you have them.

Reward in event or it's possible that they will be added to L2Store as well?

And another one question. When server transfers will be opened again?

Best to go with either depending on the event/promotion.

Server Transfers are looking to be reopened early April.

Is there any way we can give more feedback to NCsoft directly? Because obviously they don't care about what you guys are telling them and they keep making decisions that are tanking the population rapidly. A lot of us care about and love this game and it hurts to see it being handled so poorly.

Also was anything about the rampant bot infestation brought up at this meeting? Any info about that or is NCsoft just gonna keep ignoring it until the server is dead? xigncode is  also worthless compared to hiring a few live GM's to check the game every once in a while. Like I don't get it, how many tickets do you guys deal with about wrongful bans by xigncode, I doubt it's saving the company any money.

I wouldn't say the dev team doesn't care. We don't always see eye to eye on issues. Juji, myself, and the others on the L2 team here in the West are pushing to get the changes we need for our services.

Bots is alw...

So you guys discussed stuff but aren’t doing anything about the changes. And when you do make changes you’s completely do the opposite of what people ask. You’s single handily ruined classic. Please since you just replied within minutes show some light on the situation. 

I will agree the changes and updates to the game haven't been as quick as they should be. It's not from the lack of trying, and yes—trying isn't cutting it anymore.

I don't have any more information to share other than we're working on it with the dev team.
