Per the announcement, there's an I25 server back online, and per discussion with Vyperpunk, the mechanism for registering your account is clogged worse than [CLOGGED THING]. So wait until this evening and give it a try, using the methodology in the STATE OF THE SERVER thread.
There's multiple ways to go forward. There's the final NCSoft codebase, that's being referred to most places as I24. This is currently in development, being streamlined and updated. I believe the big goals for it are to free it from MS licenses, and get it to be less hungry.
Then there's the codebase that was run by SCORE, the 'private' server. It's been developed on for years, and has significant differences from I24. From our POV, the vet rewards and cash purchased items are now available from "P2W Agent" NPC vendors. There is the new Sentinel class, a blaster/scrapper hybrid. There's more power diversification, and it's loose as can be for who starts where. Fr'ex, I can make an Arachnos Soldier, and start in Atlas Park.
