[L2OFF] L2Nostalgia low/mid rate

[Dradden]

they use l2azure server files , last time when i played there was cool but realy i dont like 7x at all at last 15x like old nanaki server

 

We use some of Azures scripts only. We developed our own Extender for this which is almost done. Azures scripts were actually missing quite a bit of C5 content which we have almost finished adding and testing.

I have made a public progress thread until our CMS and bug tracker is live, to let the public see a bit of what is going on in CB.

THe server seems nice but x15 is way better imo

[Dradden]

The poll which ran for a solid month said much different :P Anyways rates are decided, maybe in the future we will look at something around a 15x server.

[merdoso]

30x is ok, just take things easy and don't bring it to live until u know u have 99% things done ( and well done), good luck.

I can't edit my first post so here is the updated rates etc..

 

The server is still in development and the features listed here are by no means final and this list will be updated frequently.

I'll wait a month or two before deciding if I should join or not.

Servers with old chronicles (low rates) can't last these days.

People just want to have some fun...I guess the game got old !

Personally I think people have mostly become tired of bugged, incomplete, and unstable servers, as well as playing the same Chronicles over and over. There haven't really been any C5 servers since Azure and even Azure had a lot of missing C5 content. So far the response we are getting from people on C5 is amazing but only time will tell, the community is pretty unpredictable these days. :) For me the fun in L2 was always the time and work it took to get geared up and than the resulting long-term competition for server domination which used to last years. Hopefully people will make those times happen again and stick with the server instead of server hopping which is so common these days.

The fact that we are bringing the first and only complete C5 server hopefully will stand for something. Either way it has already been quite a bit in CB and on our IRC, and I don't see that stopping anytime soon :)

There is no other C5 server out, that's true. But basically, its still the same game (except augments) with less content compared to

Interlude. Ive seen many serious low projects fail these last couple of years which tells me that it really got old !

Old chronicles can't attract many players compared to GF/Freya/H5 and many old school players left this game for good (can't blame em).

Yes there are tons of shity projects, but that shouldn't affect low rate players. Why do you think azuregaming cancelled their plans

to come back with a new l2 server a couple of years ago ? How many you think will join nostalgia ? Maybe 1k or 1.5k real people tops.

Two months later you think that number will be the same ? L2 glorious days have long since passed..

The last sentence says it all. As for the rates i wanted to be a little bit higher but that ain't gonna stop me trying this server.

Really imo it is exactly people saying that all over the community that is a major contributing factor as to where L2 private servers stand today which is a shadow of what they used to be. Azure honestly would have had more luck if they would have just stuck with C5 at least imo. 1k to 1.5k would be great and I think we will see those numbers fairly easy. 2 months later will they be the same? maybe not all depends if some of the larger clans decide to quit server hopping and stick around for awhile.

Insomnia said the same, look the  (your?) result.

 

Agree with Ellys.

Said what? And know I have nothing to do with Insomnia. From what I can see all they did was use Azures files and never fixed shit, wheres we have developed our own extender and vastly improved Azures scripts. Big big difference between projects.

Well the competition between clans is what keeps a server going for a long time. I fail to see how the words of some random people

(like myself) can affect them. The very same clans that will quit server after a couple of months ! I used to think that it only

takes a good stable server to bring back the old days but in the years that followed I realized that I was wrong. "We will bring

back the glorious days" its a phrase I heard many times before...I hope you'll prove me wrong but I really doubt it!

All we can do is give it our best shot and hope :)
