ive never had a Corrupt GM on my server ever, since idiots dont get spots by writing a few txt files. Every server i have done before has been done solely by me.

This time however its slightly different, becuae i have someone working on tweaking the 1.9 files as much as possible so i can use them for the ideas i posted. He is the first person to ever work on a server with me, and is both trustworthy and capable at what he does. Wether he wants to GM or not i dont know (hell probably go back to Euromir when hes done lol).

Apart from that the GM's Will be the host, and Myself, no1 else. Ive also got a very trustworthy host lined up at the moment.

For new updates u gotta use my own site as im keeping all my server information on there now. Im also looking for people to post their own ideas there so i can add some other cool features.

Morning Everyone.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but ive been majorly busy with the server and selected pre-approved public events lol. Server work has begun, and infact, has also progressed with a lot of systems now in place.

The current estimate of where we are and how long its going to take is as follows.

Server: 50% - 60% Complete (depending on bugs etc)
Time to completion: im daring to say about 2 weeks (but dont hold me to this)

There is also a conflict of ideas going on in my head at the moment, mainly to do with the addition of even more features, the problem with these however, is that they will increase the time it takes till the server is ready. So, in light of this im going to leave it up to my prospective users whether they are happy and patient enough to wait an extra week or so for some more features.

Also, if anyone else has ideas they want to be considered, they need to let me know ASAP as the window of opporunity is closing very soon.

Updates:

Storyline: there are 3 types of storyline, Player, Guild and Server. Say ur a super duper level 40 warrior, and ur making regular trips wiping out a particular boss or KR, it may be that one day on your arrival, you will be "ambushed" and attacked by more/stronger mobs (also happens to guilds)

Guilds who make a point of exploring areas deeper may discover new areas. Upon defeating the boss of this area, they get an item that allows them to reach this area easier. Guilds can also undertake guild quests, that will lead to a "super boss" which will drop items of benefit to the entire guild. (some may only even spawn once)

Server Storylines: As new areas are uncovered by explorers, they may trigger events, say u find a totally new area, and slaughter everything inside, the mobs will more than likely retaliate, and by retaliate, i dont mean a 30 minute event where everything gets wiped out, and people get a few items and everyone lives hapilly ever after.

Retaliation would be more on this scale :- you piss off boss XXX and all of a sudden the lands are invaded by the most powerful of his henchmen, who will occupy the lands killing people for days on end, they will invade entire maps, towns and other temples, and will generally really piss u off and make life difficult.

Town Development: Fortresses, Upon completion of a guild quest, the guild town will be granted rights to "fortress" this means if they can collect enough resources, and gold etc, they can fortify an area for personal use. So say u want to be greedy and keep a KR to yourself.... Fortress it off, and other players will need to break in before thay can hunt.

Also, players will now be able to "relocate" towns as they explore... this will of course cost, but what could be better than finding a huge cavern and housing your town in it? Ultra defence if u ask me!

Sabuk wall development: Sabuk wall will be ravamped into a large castle type area, the inside being a Dungeon type map, and there will be 3 or 4 "vantage points" like towers etc.

Node Keys: Nodes provide defences for your town, using node keys, you can summon nodes of various strengths etc. When deveoping your town you can submit co-ordinates for the nodes. Using this system u can strategically place nodes to defend key points in your town..... They will be NPC summoned, but be warned, the nodes are only stones, so if you block of entire areas with them you may limit your own access.

Teleport scrolls.... are almost no more.... The only teleports available are town-teles. Even these are hard to come by, they will only be dropped by "ancient runes" stones which contain the information to tele. The runes will spawn in special chambers, and can only be destroyed by magic, the catch is, gaurdians will spawn to protect nodes, and gaurdians are immune to magic... so teamwork is required!

Thats all for now, more **** coming soon!

Love said:
omg wtf, how could i not of heard abt this sooner, Atom you n00b0rz.

this still going on?

-_+

yeah, but im finding it hard to commit to it lol. So todays update is comprised of the following info.

1. Server will start without everything complete, not that it matters, it just means the server will develop a bit slower in the begining. The server will start like a normal server. The kind where u mince about and theres not much to do but level and bosses.

2. There will be 2 "guild slots" available from the start (im controlling guild numbers in the server) These slots will be the easiest to get, and once the 2 guilds are made, the first town will become available, the guilds will need to fight each other and Mobs to get the town.

3. The town will have sod all defence so there will be constant fighting and stuff, it will be easy to "steal" it but also easy to lose it.

4. "Researching" is the new word of the week. By adding in items that players use to "research" they can use these to "discover" the new features. So thats them taken care of

5. skills are gonna be reworked a bit, im going to move some spells over to other classes and stuff like that, but more on that later.

The serious work begins TONIGHT, im doing database edits. Once these edits are complete my cornerstones are in place and i can really begin the development. This server wont be £1millon cool at the begining, it will be over time, and thats always been the case becuase its down to player effort and input as to how good it will get!

NO idea when any dates, are, and im not releasing any, or everyone will ***** when i go over them, much like im already ages over the dates i first posted.

My servers gonna come online for testing and im not gonna tell anyone, itgs gonna be like "POW ONLINE" and then some people will test.

then others will be like "AMG its down" and ill be like "you missed your opportunity cos u were faggoting elsewhere"

and hate will be like "**** OFF TOSSERS"

and some other people will be like

"errrr it aint my fault, i was menstrating" (sp?)

i know how much people are (if you can say excited) about the arrival of this server but to be honest m8 the features u got now wud get u alot of people and maybe even one day a new generation of servers but i feel that the more features you can add the more there will be to explore which to me would make it rather fun so i say if u have ideas go for it but its entirely up to you as i said alot of people are excited and want the server up soon but thats my thoughts

p.s. if this works alot of people will b pestering u (LOL)

good luck

edit: though if you do more features but by bit ull have more ideas to put in where as if u do it in 1 go ull have to think uo even more ideas :crazy2:

I have considered this, but my inspiration has hit overdrive, ive got at least 15 idea's that havent even been mentioned yet, so even if someone went and stole ever idea ive posted (which i dont think anyone will becuase no1 is that sad) the 15 ideas (not fully thought out, but non the less possible) that i havent posted are the Ultimate in idea's ;)

Im still working but havent acheived much this weekend im afraid as ive been too busy with other things. But im getting there. LIke i said there will be NO ETA becuase an ETA puts too much pressure to perform and will piss people off.

In the meantim find another server to play, yep u read that right, go play another server to pass the time, becuase im confident enough of my ideas that i can say that knowing people will quit in a heartbeat to play my server ;)

However, becuase of technicalities and the fact a lot of this server is based on exploration, Alpha and Beta tests have been cut back, there will now only be a GM Beta testing movement, then straight to live servers.
