If ur from NA and SA u can always use a VPN like WTFast , or Battleping to connect yourself to Innova server n reduce lag. So ur able to play on it, u just need to want to. ( About the pre-order and the paiment system its easy not a issue ), From NA n SA u can put money on ur account 4Game , after u just have to have a friend in Europe to log with ur account and push the bottom pre-order take 2min and ur account is rdy for the 22dec. And no , Innova will not allow bot , they ban thousands of account each week on their russian project. U can say what u want about Innova , the quality of the files and the stability ( Long terme ) of their server is better than any private who can close 2morrow, yes its 10$ per month so what, the real player who want the real experience of classic have no problem to pay for it . Private cant reach the lv of Official. And about the x1 rate , its perfect this is what we want hardcore lvling so when u acheive a lv like 20 and 1st class change ur proud ( Now there, on this private we can be lv 20 in 2hours wow.. gg ) , dont worry if its hard its hard for everyone so. And btw x3 was not really hard there... got 40+ in 3 week ( with 2-4 hours playtime max per day ) , without a CP so... dont tell me x3 was already too hard. I prefer play on a x1 who take me 3 Month to go 40 with massive PVP in D grade etc... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUhwZ0DGtKM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4wsZdO5_1o and this kind of pvp will never happen on this private due the lack of people just saying. P.S If u go on Official thinking u need to lv fast etc and try to be the best , forget it , there will always be someone who is better than you , just take the game easy , enjoy each lv , make ur own way and ur rythm and relax. Play n talk with ur friend ( Community of the server ) and the rest will come. La2 is a community game.
