Recommended Posts

Hello there,

 

The purpose of this topic is to give us* your thoughts about the ideal server.

 

what are you looking for nowadays?(client,rates,enchants etc,etc)

what things(features,actions etc) you dont like?

 

by us I mean everyone who is willing to build/create a server in the near future.

In my opinion, i think the most important thing that first and foremost have a server is balance. Whichever client you go, players mainly looking characters that can compete rivals equally well with other characters.

 

 

Then, i've noticed that lots of people really playing IL until today despite the years that have passed. This does not mean that everyone will play there.

Each client has his own peculiarity. Now, depending on what they want most (i'm talking about rates/enchants etc..), you have to do the right moves.

If you're gonna open a low rate server, you have to make it stable first of all and then, you need to make some unique/spesicif features of yours, that you think, that the players won't leave you server, in the first 3 months or earlier. If you are going to make a high/pvp rate server, you need to make some events, or some custom items which you'll not be able to find them so easily. Generally you should keep your interest the players active.

 

 

As i finish, i'ld like to say that it is important to note that corruption is a big part in this case that can be emphasized with some simple things. Like for example, you should have an experienced staff who will really cares for your server and they can prove this with daily operations. Also the combination of all the above shows that if you follow this recipe, if not sure, you gonna rock.

 

 

Do not forget to remind you that the advertise of the server is a very important. The more people will known one server, the better, because the more players are in the game, the more interesting it becomes.

 

 

I hope i make my self clear. HF.

Personally,i'm thinking smth different than I used to do.

 

I am an interlude lover,but i'm not willing to spend my money and my time into smth which is full of bugs.IL requires to spend many hours per day in order to make it stable..(maybe years).

 

That's why I'm thinking gracia final.

I know that I have to keep my players active,which is the most hard I think.I mean,if you manage to have a good economy for your server(not server like first day full enchanted gear,2nd day pvp,3rd olympiad and then quit) you server will succeed.

Happy to see that one more interlude lover understands these things about l2 nowadays.

My suggestion for you? Add on your staff team a guy which is/was a passioned experienced player in l2 so it can really help you.

Don't use only coding skills to create a successfull server,economy thing is for a guy who is been around l2 for long if you really want a good economy on sever which will have as a result a longlive server.

the fact that I'm moving on gracia final,doesn't mean that I forgot IL.

Imho,ncsoft totally destroyed/ruined the gameplay after IL(compare c4 or even older clients with the last client(h5)..),but thats another discussion.

Anyway, for some reason these companies made the game that way. It make some sense that these changes will not appeal to everyone, but from the moment we are dealing (those involved) with the game, to settle with some of these features/gfx stuff etc..

 

 

It's purely a choice each of us which way/client will follow. What we should do, is to support whichever way to follow till it's end.

Looking something before GOD (H5 or lower) and higher then interlude :P, low to mid rate. Would love if there is a big enough player base, that there are no npc buffers but only pots or scrolls with the basic buffs, so we need a buffer in pt or a box. The player base of active players should be arround 2k to 4k (online without shops), if its higher its also good :). No custom zones, but I like the idea of champion monsters. And of course no major bugs, no game changing donations. Enchant till +25 (max, would preffer 16) with 66% of course. Shop till A grade, S, S80, S84 only via craft or drop. Thats it I think :)

Make a mid rate Hi5 with low S grade items to be top gear. Customize the attributes so you can add elements on A grade too . :P Change the quests and the rewards so you cant farm dyna+ items, and to make the low S grade items harder to farm.. (Just a idea I had few days ago :P)

But if you want a Gracia final, make a mid/pvp server, its been long since we saw a good GF srv and i guess many ppl are looking forward to it.

 

Don't judge me bad , just expressing my ideas  :alone: :alone:

nah i play retail servers and i would like a change

i want a HI5 server with A LOT of custom, like wings, custom masks custom weapons with crazy status BUT by a fixed rate that every char has the chance to win pvp

low rate server ofc like x4 or x7 with custom zones of xp/spoil/drop

custom recipes of each grade (no grade,d,c,b,a,s,S80,S84)

colorful armors and weapon glows

custom quests (hoever is boring of xping can do the quest for good amount of xp and adena)

WITH vitality system but no nevit one (i realy hate it :/ )

buyable nobles

NO BUFFER

WITH CLASS CHANGER (FREE/ADENA/QUEST/RAIDBOSS DROP)(any of them seems good fo me)

ABLE to make AIO buffer WITHOUT DONATE (a raiboss  custom drop that can stuck bladedancer/swordsinger/prophet)(UNABLE TO JOIN OLY)

(buffs 2 hours)

with buyable crystal enchant scroll (max +30 weapons +30 armors and rings etc...)

OFFICIAL SERVERS Nowadays they like to play in OFFICIAL for different reasons each player and also they don't trust servers like pvp servers and mainly with custom inside... cuz of unbalance etc... Others on the other hand like to play in any kind of server to any kind of client cuz of gameplay...

 

About my favourite gaming is mainly OFFICIAL Servers(x4-x7).... More stable and balance...

Don't open gracia final, in fact, clients like Kamael, Gracia pt1/2/Final are forgotten. What i mean is that players won't really bother to download the client, unless you reveal unique features, like L2Pride for example.

    • 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"
