Decision Time...
- Thread starter Samuel
- Start date
Look forward to trying the new server and finally getting a look at the files. Well done sam, ,milo and all the team for bringin mir this far and keeping this amazing game alive.
To the nay sayers regarding release of files, yes there will be an influx of 10 minute servers, but its easy to spot which ones are out for a quick sale and which servers have had effort put into them. Release will drive more bug discoveries and fixes as they will be under the scrutiny of fresh eyes and fresh ideas. If 1/20 ppl that have these files fix things, surely thats better than it not getting fixed at all.

No need for a care package, make it a clean break. Otherwise you'll get ****ers moaning about how they just joined the new server and all old players had an advantage with the care package.
Also, re: keeping the server up, WTF I'm sure you can find something to do in the interim period. The host is paid for until October 19th, maybe it can be used to host a test server for assassins or whatever in the meanwhile. Try focussing all that mir energy into something else for a while, who knows you might become a ****ing millionaire if you channel all that time and effort spent on ACE M2.
1 thing Sam...please don't call the next serve ACE....its a pretty **** name lol.

Probably a good idea.
The biggest thing that needs fixing imo is the movement and this whole getting hit while running problem. It really ruins PvP completely.

That was even worse at the server start. Samuel tried to reduce the effect as I remember.
Ack well, was fun while it lasted. I stopped playing a while ago anyway but I might pop on if/when V2 comes along. All the best 
I like what Sam has done. Even the on the fly adjustments. He was making the best of stew of good ideas and that didnt really go together and werent that good for the overall game.
Looking forward to the new one and hope youc an find some people to help with running it leaving you to do the stuff you enjoy.
Thanks for all the effort to all those involved
Thanks to Sam for being willing to go ahead and do it again

yup this is one of the biggest annoyances atm coupled with wiz icestorm range being much bigger than its supposed to be (3x3) and bliz not being cancelled even when the wiz is hit and curse landing 1/1 or 1/2
anyway a few of us have gone over to http://www.lomcn.org/forum/showthread.php?79096-Slayzone-2-6-Discussion to play until V2 is released, ill be deffo playing V2 so goodluck sam
I think this idea of a starter pack for people that can put the hours In More so than others is wrong. They are that level because they get the time to level.
Bugs/things that need to change otherwise the new server will just go down same road;-
- gems/orbs chance to fail does not increase the more stats achieved.
- cast speed or a way to give warriors something level with it.
- a GameShop to help keep server up. But nothing that gives players an advantage ie. exp buffs, any sort of stat buffs, items with stats.
- implement all the skills we have seen in the video for this server and give them reasonable level requirements.
- a level cap or something similar. Maybe quadruple the exp needed once you reach level 50 or make all mobs give 1exp after level 50.
- the biggest point - get some balls. If people complain aslong as you know it's fair or correct don't give into them.
- bug exploiting = ban.
This server was great just some bugs got exploited for far too long and ruined it for everyone.
If you play it right this could fill your pockets. I know you are not arsed about that but It would be an awesome incentive. I don't mind aslong as you can pay to win.

Damn iPhone always misses the most important letter.
Was meant to say aslong as you can't pay to win*.

thought cast speed was much better for single target spells just the aoe ones it was op, ice storm in particular
Wizards and Taos would agree, Wars will disagree.
AoE yes cast speed was insane, Single target made the game more fun.
Another price of advice... When you change something don't expect us to know how it worked on official, tell us exactly what it's suppose to do ( in terms of skills ) you could tell us what it's supposed to be compared to from other classes.
Everyone that has played every server since Mir came along wont like this as they want it the way they think it was/should be.

I made a forum account just to say how much I agree with this post, excluding the red text. Just reduce the XP multiplier. I got to lvl 49 with 93mc in a month - The only thing I had to play for was grinding the rare spells. There needs to be more of an incentive to level past 50!
