GOOD TO KNOW
A few answers before you go.
Are these official AION 2 tools?
GamOcean is an independent fan project, not affiliated with NC or Valve. Steam statistics and announcement links come from Steam; reset rules are labeled community references. Personal plans are yours.
Why do player-count sites show different numbers?
Collection times and sampling intervals differ. This page shows Steam concurrent users, not all-platform totals or daily unique players. Observed peaks can miss a higher count between samples. Historical charts begin when our collection starts.
How fresh are the data and announcements?
Player counts are collected every five minutes, reviews hourly and official news every thirty minutes. Each source keeps its own timestamp. If a source fails, its previous record remains dated and is not replaced with zero.
Where are my checklist and plans saved?
In this browser’s local storage, shared between the English and Chinese tools. No account is needed. Back up before clearing browser data or changing devices. Import merges IDs; an imported item with the same ID replaces that item. Undo restores the last local change.
Does a finished maintenance countdown mean the servers are online?
No. The countdown uses the announced estimate. Extensions, regional exceptions and actual completion must be checked in the linked official notice or in-game. A missing notice is not evidence that servers are healthy.
