  1. Skrillex

    Head Dev

     

    Skrillex is one of the few surviving original Old-school devs. You very rarely see him say anything or see him on the forums. I suppose he is shy or buried in code. Either way we are lucky to have him with us! Hint** He responds well to insults and it's one of the best ways to get him talking.

     

     

     

    no old school dev has ever head of skrillex..... lol nice try anyway

     

    Hehe since you seem to know a bit about the old-school devs or at least think you do I am sure you would know him with his normal name. Whether or not he wants to bother posting here is up to him.

    Well after a few months of work the time has finally come to let people know about our server. Many of you know Azure and their C5 servers which are unfortunately closed now. We are using their C5 files and client protection. We first had planned on Interlude but when the option came to open a C5 server with those files it was impossible to pass on. We are the only ones besides Azure to have the privilege of running these C5 files.

     

    Open Beta date has been announced! It will begin on May 26th. Also Aderyn has joined us as Head Dev, a huge bonus for the staff and the community. For those that do not know him he is the owner of Azure Gaming and whose files we are using.

     

    Server Information

     

    Chronicle- C5 (Oath Of Blood)

     

    5x xp

     

    5x sp

     

    5x Adena

     

    5x Drop (chance)

     

    3x Quest item (chance)

     

    5x Spoil (amount)

     

    1x Epics

     

    Protection

     

    The client protection is top notch and afaik has never been bypassed. There will be no bots. It also blocks dual-boxing even if you use sandbox or vm.

     

    Server Hardware

     

    The server is bought and paid for, there is no rentals here. I did this so I could afford to put the server on a real ddos protected network (not cheap). More about the ddos protection farther down.

     

    Server Specs-

     

    2x Dual Core AMD Opteron 2212s

     

    2x SAS 15k RPM, 73GB HDDs

     

    12 GB RAM, DDR2 667 MHZ

     

    The server will hold 3k players with no lag.

     

    Server Connection Server is located in Montreal, Canada

     

    The server is connected to some real high quality backbones and the routing is excellent for players all over the world. This is not something every datacenter can do! Outgoing traffic traffic travels VIA Tata Communications (formerly Teleglobe), Videotron, Peer1, TorIX, Level 3, Deutsche Telecom, and Cogent.

     

    **NOTE** Cogent is only used if there is a major failure on one of the other high quality carriers that is effecting service.

     

    DDOS Protection

     

    The main reason many of the bigger servers are closing or being forcibly closed is ddos attacks. Unfortunately it is a reality of the L2 Private server community. Not many servers are investing in ddos protection and most of those that do are being tricked. Many datacenters offer ddos protection but it is false advertising. A Firebox, Cisco router, or software ddos protection may work against small non-flood type attacks, but they all fail against large flood attacks. Those attacks are what is being used to shutdown so many large servers.

     

    I contacted over 100 Datacenters all over the world over the course of 2 weeks not too mention did a huge amount of research. **FACT** If the protection offered is not network wide and based off Arbor Peak Flow/Analysis and Top Layer technology...it is BS! We are hosted on one of these networks..shielded and fed clean traffic by the best ddos protection/mitigation in the world. Expensive? Yes...but if your going to do something do it well, right?

     

    The amount of support since we announced our decision to go with C5 has been huge. The community has grown almost 10x larger over the last week and continues to grow very quickly even though we only started to put some ads out today. It looks like it is going to be a huge opening.

     

    Here is the site http://www.l2insomnia.com

     

  3. That is a fake player count btw. The pack they are using has a fake payer count option and they take full advantage of it. Not saying they don't have a good population but not anywhere near 9k.

  4. L2J?

    Anti-Bot ptrotection? real protection not the standard lol walker protection.

    ddos protection? If so what?

    L2J correct?

    You realize that server is 20X the power you need?

    How do you plan to enforce dualbox besides IP checks?

     

    Some stuff people will want to know :)

     

     

  5. Looking for somebody to create a Promo Video for our upcoming C5 server. Hellish was going to make it but seems he doesn't have time these days. I will want to see some of your previous work. PM me, post here, or join me on IRC (My Signature) if your interested.

  6. both dex and rpg club were servers that were top rated on hopzone dude... but votes aren't always the quality meter....

     

    Vote sites including hopzone are garbage. This unfortunately just makes things even harder for L2 Players looking for a good server. What can I say if your looking for a real server these days you need to spend some time searching. Do not use the vote sites as your guide they have been monetized like everything else in L2 these days :/

  7. Because i'm to lazy to download c5 files + it looks pretty old on my eyes..maybe on interlude i'll give a try :)

     

    lolazyass! Try it when we go beta you'll like it. The client has been "enhanced" from normal c5. Meaning sounds are way more clear and some graphics/textures look better than normal C5. I'll make the client download available soon so you can take a month to download it if you like....just for you!
