subject: Guild Wars 2 Announced In The United States [print this page] Shortly after the developer release of the Blue Hole Studios the online role-playing game GUILD WARS 2 announced in the United States, the Korean developer NCsoft studio has filed suit. Sun had a lot of content from NCsoft's online role-playing game Lineage 3 stolen by former employees and implemented in GUILD WARS 2 been. The development of Lineage 3 was set some time ago by NCsoft. Instead, in 2012 Lineage Eternal: Twilight resistance appear as a sequel to Lineage second
According to NCsoft, the then project manager of Lineage 3, Yong-Hyun Park has raised during internal meetings staff, to win them for his own project. Fired as the lead level of NCSoft Park, followed him 48 of the 100 employees of former Lineage third
The 48 former employees have stolen it, according to NCsoft much content as artwork and concept art, but also all the records. Much of what we had worked up to this point would be for Lineage, has now been used for GUILD WARS 2. Already in 2008, NCsoft, the Korean court was going on, then could not prevent the Blue Hole continued to work on GUILD WARS 2. Could also last year's release in Korea, not prevent it.
In a conceptual drawing shows the NCsoft that not only advertised in the GUILD WARS 2 "action combat system" but also the landscape and even the characters have been stolen. The seven character classes from the time scheduled Lineage 3 are similar to those of GUILD WARS 2, according to NCsoft, in many ways.
Although it claims NCsoft that were strongly influenced by the launch of GUILD WARS 2 in Korea, sales of Lineage 1 and 2, it is but most likely also that published the first part before 14 and Part 2, nine years ago and was thus not the meet today's standards of an RPG.
So far the developer has not responded to the Blue Hole, because, according to a community manager of Blue Hole judicial process is not discussed in public. A delay release of GUILD WARS 2 in the U.S. is quite possible. In Europe, the MMORPG released in early May.
