It's rumored that there will be fresh servers also :) but that's not officially confirmed.

Bye Bye private servers

Look up frost.

 

Look up how many people play on RU Retail vs leaked hFive RU servers.

(Not counting l2j or GF at all)

 

When the private servers which only has rates changes get more players then retail which is free 2 play, you can bet your ass something is not being done right.

 

 

IF anything this might be good.

I saw all of the 3 sites, couldn't go through the whole L2 forum tho ;D

 

When they say near future, they mean before christmas, or middle of 2012?

whats the trick ? less exp sp etc... ?

Currently in retail(High Five), its already super easy to reach 76, in a month, just playing casually 3-4 hours a day, and don't tell me its not, because I just made a char 78 in 1 month. So imagine how easy it is now.. its going to be even easier in Goddess of Destruction. Obviously they will implement a cash shop, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what they sell...

It should happen when Goddess of Destruction releases, which is rumored to end of November 2011

the option to pay for a premium account giving x2 exp, guaranteed server slot(enter server, even if full), running multiple clients. Also, of course theirs a "cash shop", where you can buy various items, and from what I've seen on the l2.ru, its not anything that interferes TOO much with gameplay. A few things in cash shop include, ® Grade SS/BSS, Auxiliary Stones, Elixers, Agathions, Mounts, Town SOE's, Teleport flags, basic buff scrolls. Yeah, sure, there are a few things such as Auxiliary Stones that you can say "pay to win, no thanks", but they have to make their money some how.

There are only 2 - 3 Retail NA servers left in existence.... more players play on private servers than Retail.

 

NC Soft needs to boost rates to 5x and the servers will fill up again.... make spoils 10x/adena 10x etc.... drops 2x.... and consolidate buffs into 5 - 9 buffs only ( no more 30 buffs)

 

Then have donations for small stuff, and it will be best L2 server ever... but they will only have to pay for 2x.... and normal people play with 1x Xp....

NcSoft and Innova needs to behave like p. server for their future cash out of this game. Looks like on KR and RU works, so I'm sure it will work for EU also.

About NCWest.. god bless them.

 

For sure no more l2off private servers.

 

I guess that p. servers running High Five Part 5 100% L2OFF will continue, but it is just one like this atm.

    • @ERROR501, I’ve been waiting for the “big update” since last October, and at this point, it’s starting to feel like an empty promise. You’re better off implementing your own minimum detection server-side instead of relying on AAC to fix their issues; despite what their website claims about blocking everything, it clearly falls short.
    • We are taking new orders. Kindly DM us on Telegram!
    • Hello everyone!  I’d like to share an experience that might serve as a lesson for anyone planning to work with third-party protection services—specifically, Active Anticheat. I know this might sound like a strange job request, but  our player base mostly consists of veteran of Lineage 2 players who are used to using bots as part of their gameplay experience. As server administrators, we decided to adapt to our users. That’s why we approached Active Anticheat with a proposal: Allow bot usage under certain conditions. We explained everything in detail, and they agreed.   📌 February – A Promising Start On February 16th, we contacted Active Anticheat to request a custom antibot system. The idea was to kick players using bots during specific times (like sieges), but allow them to log back in without bots afterward. After a few discussions, both sides agreed on the following solution: Bots allowed during regular days. During siege events, anyone using a bot would be automatically kicked. Kicked players could log back in without using bots. The deal was priced at $5,000, which we already paid on March 31st, 2025. Active Anticheat promised delivery by the end of April, or at the latest, by May. Screenshot:  Deal 1 Deal 2   🕐 May – The Delays Begin We followed up multiple times in May, only to finally hear back on May 26th: “It won’t be ready this month. But we’re working on a big update coming in June.” That update? Still nowhere to be seen, even as I’m writing this post. Screenshot:  Delayed   🔁 Plan B – L2Walker Rejected, Adrenaline Offered With our server launch schedule getting tighter, we needed an alternative. At the end of June, we asked Active Anticheat: “Can you at least allow L2Walker access to the server?” Their response on June 28th: “L2Walker can’t be allowed. But we can allow Adrenaline (free & paid version) and L2Helper for $2,000 + $300 (for a new license).” We agreed, hoping it would be a temporary fix while waiting for the promised “big update” (which we had already paid $5,000 for, remember?). Screenshot:  New Offer 1 New Offer 2 New Offer 3   ❌ AA Failed Their setup took about a week. We ran 2–3 rounds of testing using clean clients. The result? Adrenaline (both free and paid) couldn’t connect to our server. It couldn’t detect the Lineage 2 client, because the custom Active Anticheat protection was blocking it. We reached out to Active Anticheat for support, and their response? “You should contact Adrenaline support to enable free Adrenaline for your server. Adrenaline blocks it by default when Active Anticheat is detected.” Then we tested Premium Adrenaline. And it still didn’t work. Active Anticheat stood firm: “It’s not our fault. Adrenaline blocked us—not the other way around.” Screenshot: Failed 1 Failed 2   💸 The Bitter Reality Today, we’re still waiting for answers. No reply. No fix. No update. No refund. We’ve spent a total of $7,300 and received nothing functional in return. And this, despite their full agreement with our initial plan.
