Good afternoon, for past couple of weeks i've been thinking about launching a off server, H5/GoD/Classic -  but i would like to know what people would be mostly interested in ?

 

What i personally want?

Would like to achieve self sustainable server, would not mind about profits as my main goal is to build a gaming related network. Probably only donatable item would be Premium Account with 30% boosted exp/drop etc. or maybe some designed skins - but that's pretty much it. I've done some calculations regards investment and i think i would be able to reach 800 - 1200 player base concurrently online (it's close to 5 digit numbers). Server should be untouchable by GM's and Admins, self driven economy (i would have 3 moderators running bot hunting, with very limited commands).

So main question is, would it be interesting to have GvE type of server ? or x30 - x50 PvP? x10 hardcore? or Aeron style quick pvp (i love their work, just amazing) ?
Also what platform, GoD/HF/Classic 2.0 ?


Please leave your ideas down below, i will definitely check them out.


Progress:

- Domain iPlay.gg purchased (for next days will be busy with building a web/forums)

- http://iplay.gg/ Website is up

- We will launch and work on Aero styled insta pvp L2OFF H5

- http://iplay.gg/forums Forums up and running



Thank you

 GvE idea is always good in my opinion,they are fun to play and players upgrade their equip and skills by pvping,loved to play on it.However i think that is hard to attract players on such type of server nowadays,so i'd suggest you choose an aero type,or a total opposite low rated server.Don't go for same mid rates that exist around.No matter what you'll go for,just focus on making a proper advertise and a populated name & create a community long before you open.

you are completely right, at mid rate thought, i mean euro servers are so much damaged that people only enjoy quick pvp. Regards aero, i think this is it, im currently having a conversation to set the final price on development.

regards advertisement, we will avoid platforms like hopzone, topzone, and underground offers - just simply google and facebook, no funny business. As i mentioned before, my interest is not to make profits with project, just making sure that it will pay its own costs, as our other focuses are building a community.

But what do you think off platform should be, h5? Classic with aero style? GoD ?

ps: just having that thought on table, but gve wouldve been similar to interlude-online or old l2mafia as kvn server, but OFF H5 with limited buff usage and well thought system where all classes would be usable.

No mater what you'll decide on,just figure out a way to secure a good amount of players online.Start promoting the servers name and overall idea long enough before open,try make players follow server's news,become a good brand name.Me personally i'd prefer H5 or clas, but about platformeveryone has different opinion.Just think what you want to create,what you need to create and go for it.About advert i don't know if it really matters where you post.Just Just try welcome newcomers,and give them a reason to join you,something unique and attractive,and show them that you somehow going exist longterm.I believe it can work out with a proper way of promoting your server and not just a lot of it.

Decision has been made, we will continue with developing aero style off server High Five, and faction server will be our future project. I've also managed to setup a minimalistic web design (i prefer clean modern looking, rather than flashy and naked Dark elfs). Logo does need to be more better looking, i got friend who is brilliant with photoshop, hopefully he will make one for me for couple beers ^-^.

Now will struggle with setting up forums, hopefully by end of tomorrow web is ready to be visited.

http://iplay.gg/forums - Forums are ready

by Today, i should be finished with exact server features!

    • Hello I would like to offer You my NEW 2026 Updater / Launcher with custom skins.   - UPDATER FEATURES -   1. Performance and Intelligent Resource Management: Smart Disk Detection (SSD/HDD): The updater automatically detects the user's drive type. For SSD/NVMe drives: Launches up to 8-12 concurrent threads, utilizing the full yet optimized connection speed. For HDD drives: Limits the thread count (to 2-3) to prevent computer slowdowns and avoid overloading the drive head. Multi-threaded Downloading: Instead of downloading file by file, the updater downloads multiple files simultaneously, drastically reducing update time. ZSTD Compression: Support for the modern Zstandard compression algorithm (.zst). Files are downloaded in compressed form and decompressed on the fly, saving bandwidth and accelerating downloads. HTTP/2 and Keep-Alive Support: Utilizing the HTTP/2 protocol and persistent connections allows for the instant download of thousands of small files without establishing a new connection for each one.   2. Modern User Interface (UI/UX): Transparency and PNG Graphics: Support for irregular window shapes, allowing for the creation of a unique, modern launcher look. Taskbar Integration: The progress bar is displayed not only in the window but also on the Windows taskbar icon. Built-in News Browser (Optional): The updater features a built-in browser module that displays news/changelogs directly within the launcher (without opening an external browser). Multi-language Support (Optional): Built-in language switching system (e.g., EN/PL/RU, etc.) with dynamic loading of button graphics and text. Animated Buttons (Optional): Dedicated, animated buttons redirecting to Discord, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and the website.   3. Technical Features and Application Security: Anti-Dual Run (Optional): The updater checks if the game is already running to prevent file conflicts during updates. Error Diagnostics: Built-in logging system (debug_log.txt) and hardware exception handling (SEH), facilitating the diagnosis of problems for players who cannot run the game. Internal Configuration: Updater settings are stored inside the .exe file, eliminating publicly accessible configuration files.   4. File Categorization (Normal vs. Critical vs. Once): Critical Files: Critical files are verified more thoroughly (via MD5 Hash) even in quick check mode to guarantee stability. Normal Files: Standard game files (textures, models, sounds) are checked depending on the selected mode (Quick vs. Full). Once Files (Overwrite Exclusions): Applies to user configuration files (e.g., Option.ini, User.ini).   5. Check Modes (Verification Algorithms): Self-Update: The updater can update itself before checking game files, allowing for easy deployment of launcher fixes. The updater supports two main operating modes that switch intelligently based on user action: Smart Check (Startup Quick Check): Runs automatically upon updater startup or pressing the START button (unless a full check is forced). Full Check (Full MD5 Verification): Manually triggered by the player via the "Full Check" button. Automatic Update Detection: If a newer version of a file appears on the server, it is automatically detected and downloaded without player interaction. Atomic Updates: Files are downloaded and verified first, and only then saved to the disk. This prevents game client corruption in case of internet connection loss. The entire process takes seconds, even with clients weighing 30GB+. - PATCH BUILDER FEATURES -   1. Professional File Structure Management (Tree-List Hybrid): Directory Tree Visualization: Instead of a flat file list, the Builder displays a clear structure of folders and subfolders. You can collapse and expand entire tree branches, facilitating work with thousands of files. Normal and Critical Division: A clear window division into two main zones: Normal Files and Critical Files. Ghost and Excluded Files Division: The interface visually informs about the status of unchanged files (existing in the previous patch version) and files excluded from the update. Show/Hide Ghosts: With one click, you can hide unchanged files to focus solely on what you are actually sending to players in this update.   2. Intuitive Interaction: Drag & Drop: Full Drag & Drop support. You can grab files or entire folders and drag them between the "Normal" and "Critical" lists. Transfer is intelligent – it moves the entire content of selected folders. Keyboard Shortcuts: Fast workflow thanks to keyboard support: Delete, Enter, Ctrl+A / Ctrl+C (select and copy paths).   3. Advanced Filtering and Searching: Context Search: The search bar works in real-time, filtering the file tree. Type /folder: Searches only within folder names. Type *ex: Shows only excluded files. Standard Typing: Searches files by name.   4. Automation and Security: Auto Self-Update: The Builder automatically detects the updater executable file. Real-Time Statistics: The status bar continuously shows the file count (Normal/Critical), total patch weight (in Bytes/MB/GB), and the last update date. System File Protection: Files marked as "Critical" cannot be accidentally added to the exclusion list – the program blocks such actions.   5. Performance (Backend): ZSTD Compression: The Builder uses the latest Zstandard algorithm to compress files before sending, ensuring a significantly smaller patch size than standard ZIP, saving server bandwidth and player time. Multi-threading: The packing and MD5 checksum generation process utilizes multiple CPU threads, drastically reducing patch building time.   - PRICING - NEW Updater standard price: 79 euro (if You ask for mods, price will change).   - CONTACT - Discord: ave7309   CLICK HERE TO CHECK LATEST TEMPLATES!                         * I have right to REFUSE to take an order. * Supported games: Lineage 2 / Black Desert / MU Online / Tantra / Rohan / Aion / Cabal / Fiesta any more...
