What's going on ?


Recommended Posts

Hey, im over disgussted watching a lot of useless servers, this didn't happen to me never in the ten years of gameplay, when i started to play eight years ago, since C2 and C3 all classes were balanced, and yes there were corruptions and donations related, but not like now, i dont say all servers are the same right now, because i cant generalize, but , its just holy crap!!! to find a server that can be useful,

 

as i can see, there are many corruptions with wannabe "gamemasters" that never had an workful experience on low rate like was L2 Zeus, affs,

before i begun to play again today, im just surprised with the things i see, on the servers that i tried to play and stay in, basically the servers runs for make money for donations, they dont care about free gaming players, and that is an big error, you must take care of all people if you want an long longevity server, and make the donations balanced in game, so, the non-donations players can play balanced,

 

so, what do you think about that?

What do you expect my friend?

From now on, all are opening servers for having a nice pocket-money just this.

As you already mentioned they dont care. They open a server when the servers has 600 people online and the donations are in full and they got a nice budget they just close the server.

This is the truth sadly.

I expected another climate and more professionality of the private servers due the years of lineage , this just make me sad, actually, Im playing on HF5 L2 Client at Equionimity server, don't remember the exactly name, and it seems good , at the moment...

 

I also have Interlude client, if you know a stabilty server, please make me to know that,

and lets have hope for new generation of private servers,

What do you expect?

 

What do you want?

 

C2-C3 back? You want 1000 players in one server? Big clans to go raid epic bosses?

 

Do you know what people have to go through? lvl 1 starting area, grind to level 12 -> RoD to 20+ -> some other farm zone, etc etc. All the time same thing. Grind, spoil, craft, fail, spoil, grind, craft low grade gear for 5 hours of gameplay, then destroy.

 

 

Are you willing to play on something new? Because when someone creates a unique server everyone flames and says they don't know what L2 is about.lol.

All the people  that have brains left L2 because it is

1) repetitve

2) Low skill ceiling

3) rock paper scissors balance

4) No incentive. Get item -> forget all problems.

 

There is no constant need of items in general. There is just a single particular goal - get best items. First to get there owns all people who are slower. When more people get same items people leave.

 

To get people to play seriously there have to be changes to fundamental mechanics of the game.

Why have lvling? You didnt have enough of lvling in 10 years? Do you need lvl 1-78? Is there a point to doing all the quests again?

Why can I just craft top gear enchant it to +6 and forget about getting gear all together? But before that, you cannot do anything at all. If you try to PVP it will suck. Because gear makes a big difference. Unless you are herp derp. Or play a weak class.

 

Which brings to another point. Class balance. You try to change skills - people go "lol noob no retail balance". Make retail balance people say - "Lol balance bad".

 

Welcome to L2 2008-2013.

 

Its not that people have different opinions. It's just people are not open to new things. If someone made something new I bet people wouldn't care what there was 10 years ago.

 

Old game is old. Play same servers if you want. I remember when a friend of mine would play low rates. He would farm daily just to craft all gear, get to lvl 78-80, PvP about 4 hours total throughout a week, quit, move to other server.

I was playing Ininitel2 and had PvP 24/7 whilst casually working towards better gear, working in a team with different clans and parties.

 

Don't need C2-C3, interlude, c4, gracia final, low rate, stack sub, rebirth or any that shit to have a good server.

You know nowdays l2j become so easy to manage that even a donkey can open a server, and sometimes thats whats happening a donkey(no offense but usually a greek donkey) opens a server with hes 0 gameplay/admin experience and 0 development skills just for the sake of having a server. Theres nobody left whos doing it because of passion and the fact that hes capable of managing a good server, only money matters nowdays.

I remember when we still played in C2 and beginning of C3, I was playing a gladi. In my clan we didnt play to get the best gear the fastest but to enjoy the game while training. We were semi good clan, which could win some wars, but the top clans did kill us if we went to a fully open war. Thats the time i like to remember most, because I had a lot of fun. And back then you droped items if you got killed (even without karma), I farmed like mad for dual SLS (i think). I droped them the same day, because a dagger pulled a full train on me and faked death. The whole clan helped me to farm again for them and i got them in 1 week :))

 

Thats whats Lineage 2 is about (for me). And of course DRAMA :P

I totally agree with those quotes and I will add something more, servers are not recyclable. That's a really big problem if you get my meaning

yeah and usually the wanna be admins who patched all the shared things from mxc gains more people than the experienced dev.. then what the experienced Dev do? He closes the server.

 

Sad, but true.

    • While not particularly active over the years, I've been around for as long as I could remember, so here are my 2 cents too. On top of what has already been said, I'd like to touch on a few thing that might be improved upon. While it is easy to notice and say "there's lack of engagement" or "community has outgrown the ganre", I've seen numerous forums get forgotten and die while others continue to thrive to this day. The main issue, in my humble opinion, is that the sector has been commercialised to an unsustainable extent. When nobody is willing to share anything, even if it is just a rework of an open-sourced or already-shared resource, the sense of "community" gets deminished. Now back on the pressing matter. From what I've seen, the lack of engagement could be circumvented with a redesign and functionality expansion that would/could/should include: - a built-in chat functionality. - incentives for engagement/interaction, ideas of which I'll list as separate pointers, as not to limit your creativity. But just as an example, from a more user/human perspective, having an easily identifiable way to get into "the club of the cool kids on the block", figuratively speaking, is an incentive on its own. - separation of the reputation into reactions and reputation. One to be used to posts, such as up-vote and what not, while the other to be awarded as means of appreciation. - automated ranks with actual benefits/perks, not like the current ones providing nothing. - the ability to hide text for user/group of users, not just premium/no premium. - increased visibility of the HOT topics and the RECENTLY ACTIVE threads/posts. Can be also expanded to most liked posts, etc. ps.: I'll update my post when I have some free time on my hands.
    • There was no way I didn't refunded or delivered files. I don't see You on my conrtact list on Discord, can You send me a message or at least tell me for what project was this updater? I always resolve if I can't deliver on time or customer bailes.
    • @rlfem123  I’m a web developer, and I work with technologies like Next.js and React. In the last 10 years, L2 Rankzone is the only one I’ve seen that actually did something different. All the others seem to have the same source code with different templates. L2 Hopzone also did an upgrade and, for the front end, is using Vue.js. Regarding web development, we have reached a point where you can easily create websites using libraries or frameworks. Simply pick one and start working. You will learn as you go. Personally, I prefer to build my back-end APIs in Laravel if it’s a big project since the ecosystem offers everything. For smaller projects, I choose Go. Then I use either React or Next.js to call my APIs, depending on the case. Next.js also supports Server-Side Rendering (SSR) if you want to hide some things from the client. Additionally, CSS libraries have almost everything you need nowadays to start building quickly with browser compatibility. You can seriously build an L2 website with ranks, a good design, and even a simple login/register system in just 3 days. Here are some CSS libraries I personally work with: https://tailwindui.com/components   https://ui.shadcn.com/   https://mui.com/material-ui/ Regarding the top websites i dont thing its worth the time and effort.  Its pretty simple to build one and the market is already bloated. In addition l2 is dying so i suggest to build top sites for many games.  THe main problem is not the build process rather the marketing one. You can build the most awesome website iin terms of functionality but if you marketing is week you wont exceed 10 concurrent users. 
    • Good evening from me as well. I wouldn't recommend anyone, no matter how much love they have for the game, to try to revive it, not only because of the times but also because of the community (people who used to spend 15 hours grinding now qq for everything when they have auto-farm enabled 24/7... ) .  All the effort will be in vain. I have given all I had to this game. I have spent an incredible amount of time and over 20k the past 6 years, and the money can go to hell, but the time doesn't come back, I almost literally didn't get cancer... Also, very few people are worth collaborating with, all the rest are scammers and traitors. Unfortunately, only the projects that have been in the background for years do well.   P. S: "Once upon a time they used to be players now only complainers left"
