Questions to Innova team about new server

Here's few wishes for the server/servers...

1) If you make the new server f2p - PLEASE restrict the Cash shop by ALOT. Heine event would kill levelling in server immediately. Most store events would kill point for gear grind. IF you intend to make this a 110% pay2win server for the people who prefer using cash - than time - please be Transparent about it (viz. be clear about what are your plans about the future of the server if you start with Cash-shop that does not give huge benefits.)

2) I have always dreamed of official pay2play Lineage 2 post-God server without any cash shop at all since it would make: a) loot viable and worthwhile (shinies). b) this would return competition into L2 (other than wallet-warrior oly ranks that we have now; bozo of the month leaderboards are amazing ehh ) Classic is very well done in this regard.

I know it would take a massive Work for a pay2play work since KR does not really do more than Cash-shop updates anymore. BUT - if a pay2play server would be made I would jump into it wholeheartedly.


Conclusion: I dont see any incentive or point in making a YET another pay2win server. Most of us has been on that road already (read. Zaken server on NcWest). It would be just a competition who would spend most money. Makes more sense to have different types of servers with different rulesets to be the L2 publisher that has plenty of options to offer.

But thats just me... Maybe the pay2play GoD server option has sailed away already :/

Thus Question Being: Fragola could you please get the info from Dev team about: a) 1 or 2 new servers with different rulesets b) how heavy will the "new server" cash shop be?

 

Good morning people, My cp and me wants to know if this new server will have from donation wheel of fortune where you can get with $ some end game items, someone can find out or tell me this?.

And i want to know also, someone tell me what we can buy boxes and cards and this gives tauti weapons and epics, this is true or it will be change in the early?

Many people is still waiting for this to join the server, i think what if the server only put for donation runes vip and appareance items will be more than enought to win money and get one good server, not p2w. Well if someone know this date and can answer me will be great.

Say no to the p2w (?

Sorry for my english , im from south america.

 

You donate money, spend them directly ingame shop for various items from appearances, runes (XP,drop, etc) to boxes/cards which contain full items, consumables and more depending on the luck. However, the exact items available on the new server are unknown for this moment, because they are most probably being discussed by Innova team and are nit decided completely just yet. Or they just don't want to tell us yet.

 

When you say full items, What items would be? for example

 

This

Also, do we have any aproximated date of launch?
I'm already sick of HighFive so I'm going to give it a try

This is current reward for tarot cards on core, server running for 5 years. It is unlikely that the new server will have such a high end game rewards, but to get an idea. Also the better the reward, the lower the chance of obtaining it, logically.

 

I see too much op item in that thread, i think what if they open one new server many of these items must be erased.

If not at the first day anyone with $$ can spend money in 1000 boxes and get one middle end game weapon or one epic :s

Fragona save us !

 

@CM Fragola
okay, since my first post was deleted "offtopic" lets go same thing from the other side which directly gona be questions about this new server
1- will gm's be ignoring ppl like in core server, 70%(or even more) threads in feedback/game bug section are un-answered by staff and just closed by moderators
2- will the skill delay issues be removed on new server (and i dont mean in future, i mean from the start since its a 3+ year known issue)
3- will the rest of the bugs that are "known issue" be removed on start of new server? (same as on "2" the bugs are knows for a long time)
4- will all the typos in quests be removed? (example shout quest of exalt #1 quest where u need to make 120 shouts, but dialog says "at least 30"

 

General ads were active since January, the ads for the new server are active since yesterday.

You know raids, instances and so on.

Yes.

Tarots and boxes are still being discussed: both their presence and contents.

As I've said before, we do not plan to offer this service. We may consider offering it in a looooooooooong distance future when both servers are equal in gear and moving chars woudn't break economy. At the moment it's better to think about that as "no, there are no plans and better not rely on transfer at all".

2. yes
3.

4. not "whatever", only change class within your current archetype. Iss to Iss, Tyrr to Tyrr and so on.

1. We support EU only.
2. You can launch any number of PA windows + one non-PA window.

1. L2 store contents are being discussed, both the availability and contents. I will be as transparent as possible about that once the decision is taken.

a) according to our info the devs do not plan to support P2P models for the main version.
b) It is still in discussion as we are very worried about the possible impact.

1. Let's clarify that: GMs don't work on the forum. I do. And I needed some time to understand the mechanics behind Main Version so I could understand your questions and be able to answer there. Give me 2 weeks to get through the "new server" to-do list and I promise I'll get there and read it carefully. Deal?
2. It is a known issue, but as it was mentioned a lot of times before, the devs are aware of it, the devs are trying to fix that and provide us with patches (which apparently didn't fix it), we send them more reports and wait until it is fixed.
3. There's NCsoft in Korea that develops the game and provides us with server software and client because there are a contract and a license. There's "we" - Innova (4game) that operates the game and applies patches sent by the devs. If we get the fix, we apply it to all servers (not just the newest ones).
4. Please submit all localization problems to the appropriate topic: https://4gameforum.com/forums/468/ and our localization team will take care of them.

 

His question is if he can play here being from south america not if you support Eu .... with that answer you made him understand that he can't play while he can ..

 

1) Why you will not wait with new server to open wuth start of new update?
1a) You try avoid fast 1-85 exp ? (20 min playing and you are with 85 lvl)
2) how long on new server will be waiting for new update?
3) Grand Crusde will take place the same time as core?
4) When you plan do Grand crusde at new server?

 

Yes everyone can play from those countries, they can play from wherever they want, just as staff, because of contracts, they cannot say that oficiallly, the living prooft are both Skelth and Core, we have in both servers players all around the world and they play without problems at all.

As in connection to Ronove's question about how to gear up and your answer from isntances / raids and so on, here's my question, do you even know the amount of adena needed to gear up decently enough / adena those bosses are dropping?. Do you know that l2store is the easiest method of gearing up and it takes no effort at all to do so and there's no way a farm non heavy spender player can catch up? The living example it's next chronicle some of best solo-hunting areas for top adenas are getting heavily nerfed.

Do you guys plan to speak to Koreans to finally balance the game's economy? I mean viable ways for non top-spenders to farm up their gear, there should be 2 options more or less equally good, not the situation we have atm, as in example, in case you don't know since you said yourself you didn't play the game long enough yet, 1 tarot card it's costing 1.50 euros which in the current market it equals around 120-140kk adena (depends of days and market), with full party if you farm zones like GoS (read it as Garden of Spirits), with PA account (adena amount / drop rate +100%) counting all materials you drop and adena, you can hardly farm 100kk divided by 7 people, does this make any sense at all? Not counting that Superion Fortress drops more or less same adena (10kk per member per hour) and materials level 3 (equivalent to level 90 areas) and from daily quest there you can get 1 gemstone S grade (which you can't even use. You can only sell it in grocery for 20-50k adena)

From instances it's as Ronove said, from full r99 bless items to r99, to r95, to r95 crafting packs with close to 0 chance, so most likely even with PA+marph + drop rune (+300% boosts) you get one BEAR + rune stone per instance (100kk for 7 ppl), when full gear for DD costs easily 500-900kkk

Edit: I know it sounds really like an aggresive post, but it's not more than the situation we have currently with the chronicles we're getting latelly, we should get something like we had before lindvior updates in terms of drop/spoil lists, you could either donate as easy way or farm up your way and gear up yourself either alone, as CP or as clan

Then south american players cannont play?

 

1. The people who take the decision to open it analyzed all data and decided to do so. There's nothing I can add to it.
2. ~ 1 month
3. Yes
4. see 2 and 3.

 

I dont want to know if innova will support these countrys, i only want to know if another places like south america will be able to play in this server

 

The staff will always say no to supporting non-eu territory countries, if you want to play just as help from other south american players and they will explain you how to play probably.

 

so from this we can asume that rusians geting patch today, and core along with new server gona get in 1.5 month?

 

I said it in my earlier post, YES you can play from any country, but if you have any problem they MIGHT not be able to help you properly. Might means that they can help you or not, depending on cases. They just CAN'T tell you oficially that you can play here because of contractual deals. Just download the client and play if you want to play, as simple as that (it's the same case NCWest have with european players, they shall not play there but still do, so 0 drama)

 

Thanks
