Hello there,

 

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

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.

[SirLionheart]

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 :)

[Doggy]

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:

[Smok3BoY]

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...)

 

 

i haven't seen  a server like this and i wanna see it

[Destorion]

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.
