AION 2 Launch Scale Test Enters Its Second Day — original editorial gaming news illustration

NC's AION 2 Launch Scale Test continues today, concluding the MMORPG's two-day infrastructure exercise. The test is designed to expose authentication, server and concurrency problems under conditions closer to a commercial launch than internal testing can normally reproduce. It should not be confused with AION 2's full global release: today's activity is specifically a technical scaling test. Successful large-scale testing is particularly important for MMORPG launches, where queues and unstable servers can quickly undermine the opening days of a new online world.
