[L2J] L2 Wars Arena [Faction]

[DreaM]

Hello everybody, I am honored to have the chance to present to you our server L2 Wars Arena. It is a new, frest and awesome faction arena. This is not like all the other ordinary servers you used to visited that just entertained you for a period of time. We assure you that once you log in you'll get caught up in the neverending war between the two factions because in our server the players are the ones that make their history and the ones that decide how their game is going to be like, as each player fights for the ultimate position, of the ruler of the World. All major systems are based on a balanced pvp variety, which is always beeing improved, though any player that just wishes to waste some time spamming is welcome to join our Safe Zone.. =)

 

 

Stability, Exploit fixes & Dos Protection

 

Server source has been fully cleaned and fixed for performance, cheats etc.., most of the main systems are custom or rewriten in some form. The pack is seperated from any known/public project, though a large part of the core was transfered from few years of work and ideas, which weren't ever released to public and were mostly experiments/fan work. The stability isn't even a question, since the server had uptime for weeks, which was tested and eventually i had to restart it for more updates lol.. also the restart time is 10-15 seconds. The connection is dedicated and offers 0 ping for all players connecting from EU spine. The most lagless server you will ever play on, guaranteed.

 

All mxc and player known exploits are fixed. Walker and phx are allowed, since they can do no harm. As for the walker healers, here bishop is a pvp class, as all support classes will be in a matter of days.

 

And last but not least, the infamous Dos protection.. most of the l2 admins out there seem to think, if you protect servers ports with few firewalls, youre safe and thats really the most stupid perception one could produce.

All servers we tested are vulnerable by phx flood, no matter if drop/shop/wh etc.. flood protections, theres always something one can find and exploit to lag up the server up to few mins. So proove us wrong and well fix, but you wont find weak spots like that with our servers. Ports ofc are well protected, by our own software.

Youd optimistically think were safe now right? Well the hard truth is, no matter if the machine blocks spam by software/hardware, the connection is still beeing consumed. Basically it doesnt matter if the server will reply to the spam, a big enough dos net can bring down anyone. So this is where our real dos protection comes in, its what makes us the only dos protected, thus stable server out there.. We are in contact with our internet provider personally, so if we are dosed, it just takes 1 sms with listed IP ranges and were back up in a matter of minutes. Just for info, the isp owns 4x5gb bandwith, which i doubt will ever get dosed and even if it does, their isp start the bans on auto and its out of our hands at that point.

 

So much for server stability.

This and Versus' server are the most interesting for now (in mxc).

This is a bit more special, since I see a big variety of (balanced, I hope) custom modifications.

 

Good luck with the whole project!

Servers require alot of atention and alot of care.. most servers with pro features like this fail cus of the simple reasons of management... and ull see im right.. iv been doing this for alot of time now and worked for alot of servers... so i think i got some expiriance in this domain. ^^

 

I wish it luck too.. and hope for the best.. but im sure smth bad will happen :P and interlude? lol

[Furiosus]

Good Luck with your server, DreaM.

tbh were kind of a closed in team as fare as staff goes, but on other hand we have an open mind for any ideas, especially player observations..

 

basically our staff atm is:

 

game/web core dev.. which is me, goddess is our wonderful designer and dream is there to bring ppl together and give extra support on boards and ingame. We also have a very good textures designer, but thats mostly since i cant draw and code everything myself.. =P

 

so basically any ideas or suggestions are welcome at all time.

few facts that might help you reach a better conclusion:

 

- i own the server box and connection myself, since i know my ISP personally (and yes its dedicated), i do not require donations to keep it online at all, not to mention its a network of servers anyway.

- im the one and only programmer, since its all we need.. and if you think you have experience lol, then im not sure what id call myself, tho hare is a small dev's resume lol: delphi, c, c++, c#, vb, java, python, php, sql etc, etc.. ond prolly more since i just pick up on what comes by. I do not play games, nor find them fun, i work on the l2 projects cuz deving a mmo is fun for me, so you shouldnt worry ill get bored one day, especially since my work would prolly bore the living hell out of any player in the first place. =P

- i had my packs on a private, private server for about 2 years now lol.. so if i didnt close it when 0 ppl knew for it and it brought about the same amount of profit, why would i close it when its blossoming so beautifuly. =)

- no one can dos us offline and thats a fact.

 

Yeah , as i gave a shot at the features now i see they are better and way more promising than beta..

 

 

Good Luck , i maybe join

 

i know it seems a bit much customs already and that maybe it gives you a feel like this server has the potencial to be nr1, but let me asure you, this is only a small base play. We are planning to make an exciting pvp server out of l2 and wont follow the original quests and achievements. Well prolly even remake the augmentation engine which is atm disabled for balance purposes.

 

server is official on? or still beta?

 

We had the beta test for a week or two now, so i think were ready and will go live tonight, tho we didnt make much advertisement yet (mxc is the only privileged forum to get announced), i am planning to run my Auto Voter(payers will be able to use, ill integrate it into our updater), which results in 400votes, with 1 dynamic ip on 15-20 websites in just few hours. So im realize our online players count is just starting to rise, but if all goes well, it wont ever really stop. =)

[HolySmoke]

I have to say that this and Versus' server will dominate this period.GodPower showed me some pics of the features and I can say it really rocks.I would recommend it.Maybe the best faction server right now.Btw the good thing is that it's being developed by programmers.Gl to the staff.I will give it a try.
