hi, after cheking "other cccp games" i just thought that maybe you guys would be interested in trying out another RPG called lineage 2... i will open a private server for the clan only if you guys desire so and every needed information will be posted on the forum for how to connect to the server and some needed files that should be instaled on the client as well. just leave your feedback and have fun EDIT 1: well, i am posting the needed stuff to play on the server to whoever decides to try it: - first download the full lineage 2 gracia client and let it do all the updates; - then download the patch file and read the readme: www.megaupload.com/?d=O9E5K0AAif you have any problem to play, just ask me this is all, have fun

I've actually got a boxed copy of L2 with 45 days of game time that I havnt used yet (it was being dold for £1.98 as the box was broken).
I've been waiting til I had a bit of spare time to start an account.
Would I be right in thinking that there is a kind of refer a friend type thing aswell, where someone with an acount can get a trial key to give to someone?

probably there is, but i can't answer for sure since i don't play the retail version of lineage 2... after all, my idea is to make a private serer for the clan only, and not to play on retail so noone will have to pay for nothing and lvling up will be faster to try most of the game features without waiting much EDIT: how do i make a pool? or is it disabled?

exactly ofc it's not full featured as the retail but theres lot's of stuff that can be done together on it, but playing alone is always boring i guess... anyway, since i cant make a poll, i will host the server soon and let everyone curious try it

okay, give us some technical details: 1. and most important - which chronicle? tbh since interlude theyre getting only worst(where the hell have been that kamael race and nobody known them? ) 2. rates. 3. is geodata ok? most l2j sucks at geo. ive known only one developer who made it work properly. 4. i would forgot... l2j? or some kind of c?(yea, the programming language) anyways i find l2 boring, and even more since on serv would be only a few ppl online. tried that long time ago with about 20ppl and that sucked ppl were ok, but its real mmo, so since few ppl - there is no chance to get set or good weapon. or if you want play 3 destroyers with buffers on dualbox, that i can undestand, but no fun for me. 80 long lvls in l2... well i have enough of grinding, but its up to you. maybe then you will appreciate how relaxing is guild wars

haha it's going with the retail version, gracia (hellbound 1.2 i guess, or better to say the most recent version of retail); Rates: XP: 30x SP: 30x money (adena): 180x spoil: 5x (guess) i use full geodata from L2Jserver but it has a lot of bugs indeed, i cant bother myself to fix it all since it is a lot of time needed for such and not many ppl will play after all; and yes, i use the L2JFree server version which is programmed in JAVA mostly (have javascript, xml, html too) and more i don't know, plus, i do keep the server up to date as new realeases come up, as i get the time for it true, 80 long levels to grind, but they are faster then guild war, i promise you that: the best part of not being retail, is that it can be configured for a faster grinding, specialy if you have "custom mobs" that i made that with a higher lvl player helping, can make you lvl 80 in less then a hour i configured my server mostly to try all the best high lvl features and not to slowly grind to to the top, this means you will have the best armors of the game after a small amout of time. also, i can do almost anything on he server to make it possible to try things that you probably would never do on the retail, which actualy are a lot so, if theres a group of ppl to do stuff together on lineage2, i'm sure guild wars wont be that much relaxing, if anymore more stuff i can tell you is: i made a NPC Buffer with full buffs, which players can customize at their will... i have GM Shop, a bit customized (needed to add the newer armors and weapons... still need to add the kamael weapons though...); i also fully made a armor trader for a lot of other operations that realy are needed on the game and mostly, there isn't much left to be done on it.... plus, you have the marriage manager to marry your boyfriend (yes, the eternal marriage prison is here too!!! as well as the divorces) and the features go on... (siege's, clans, alliances, pets, ............) EDIT: truth is, no matter how much you or anyone else tried lineage2 before, i believe you will find many new things that can make it more enjoyable, but that's your choise to play or not, i say you should try EDIT 2: found the poll button .... have fun

one of my friends was also playing gm-role at l2. he sucked. i believe you will be hundred or more times better than he was lol. ive played at rates 4 on my first servers, still got account on x5 on dex, x100 bfdr, and some high lv 5000 so i know what mean gm shops, but also grinding ive kinda enjoyed the mechanics of l2, but i think high rate servers it ruining it it sounds like a test serwer. but i dont say no anyways guild wars ftw! mostly im curious how you will make that:

i hate the gm-role since the idea for me is to play as well... the part of high rates is to speed up players wanting to try the features, but it sure does ruin the game a bit, you get bored faster... but for that you always have enchanting on armors, weapons, jewels, so you will always have something to work for and not a test server, more a fun server for some relaxing from guild wars - another game where new things can be done with a small group of ppl, but more would be better as more options of things to do would become available mostly im curious how you will make that: Quote:guild wars wont be that much relaxing, if anymore did you ever fly a wyvern? did you ever flew a wyvern with your err "husband" flying by your side??? lol i ensure the views aren't so bad and this is just an example
