Well, considering this is a PvP blog, I’m not sure how this will work…but hear me out.

The First beta weekend for AION started today, and it’s running pretty smoothly all things considered.  There was very little lag.  There was no problems logging in, and there were a lot of people online while i was there.

However, since we are only allowed to create one race of people right now, there really isn’t any PvP…unless you count dueling…which I don’t.

Overall the game looks good.  It runs pretty good.  Everything is pretty smooth.  There is still some work that needs to be done, but since the beta is running version 1.0 of the client, and 1.2 is already out and running in China…I know things will improve.

I’m hoping for a few changes to the UI setup…things like addons, and the ability to move/resize all elements of the UI.  I think it’s obvious that I love messing with the UI, so I’m hoping that’s put in as well.

The wife and I got to level 7, which isn’t too bad considering we have 3 sick kids, and we only played for maybe 4 hours total.

In other news, it looks like she’s getting into the #1 raiding guild on her server, so that’s pretty sweet for her.

That’s all for now, I plan on having a better write-up on the beta for Sunday Night / Monday morning.
