Game runs very slow

Hello, I am fairly new to this game, but am experiencing some issues.

Here are my computer specs:

• 4th Generation Intel Core i7-4700HQ Processor (2.40GHz 1600MHz 6MB)
• Windows 8.1 64
• 15.6" FHD LED AntiGlare Backlight (1920x1080)
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M 2GB
• 8.0GB PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600 MHz
• Hybrid 1TB 5400 RPM+8GB SSHD
• Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160
• Bluetooth Version 4.0

It is a Lenovo laptop, which I purchased about 2 months ago. This laptop has been able to handle every single game on max settings without lag, including: All of the Call of Duties, Skyrim, Battlefield 4, and World of Warcraft.

However, whenever I load up Aion, it slows my computer down by an insane amount. It takes about 3-4 minutes to load to the log in screen and if I try and open up a web browser in the back ground my computer almost freezes. In game, when I am away from people, I usually have around 50-60 FPS, however it tends to lag and studder A LOT. Whenever I enter a crowded city, I lag really badly.

I am running on really good internet, I rarely ever lag on other games, such as the ones mentioned above. I believe there has to be something wrong here, is there a setting I need to change, a file I need to delete, something I need to do to reduce how much computing power this game takes up?

I recently restored my computer so it definitely does not have a virus, and I believe I have installed the latest drivers.

Any suggestions or help to make this amazing game run smoother would be appreciated.

Greetings, Daeva, We understand your frustration and appreciate you reaching out to the community for help. Not receiving a verification email is a common issue that many players have encountered across various games. We’ve checked the forums and have a few potential fixes you can try. Hopefully, one of these will help you get into the game!

Possible Fixes for Verification Email Issue

Check Your Email Folders: This may seem obvious, but it's the most common solution. Please check your spam, junk, and other filtered folders. Sometimes, a legitimate email can be mistakenly flagged and sent there. Add Aion to Your Whitelist: To prevent future emails from being blocked, add the official Aion email address (often something like `noreply@aiononline.com` or an equivalent from NCSoft/Gameforge) to your email account's contact list or whitelist. This tells your email provider that you trust the sender. Try a Different Email Provider: Some email providers, particularly those like Hotmail, Outlook, or Live, are known to be overly aggressive with their spam filters. If you used one of these, consider creating a new account with a different provider, such as Gmail, and try the registration process again. Many players report better success with services like Gmail. Wait for the Email: Depending on server load and other factors, there can sometimes be a significant delay in receiving the verification email. In some cases, it may take several hours or even a full day to arrive. If you've just created your account, we recommend waiting a while longer before assuming it's a bug. Contact Aion Support Directly: If none of the above steps work, the best course of action is to contact the official Aion support team. They have the tools to manually verify your account or provide a direct solution. You can typically find a link to their support portal on the official game website. They will likely ask for your account name and the email address you used. We hope this information helps, and we look forward to seeing you in Atreia soon! Feel free to update us if you find a solution that works for you, as it may help other players with the same problem. Best regards, The Forum Moderator Team
