Forum :: Lounge :: Shitty servers.

Why do people creat shity servers that have the same eo maps ,they stay up like 2 days having a crapy name like :Free -+ADin+speed+lvl4-owerpower.Theese servers have a client with 2 stolen items probably, a sword and a hat, why in the hell would someone make a server like that?

because they want to make a server but dont want to do any work and relly does it matter because its just gonna end up getting 0 players and there will be 1 admin on an empty shit server

 

Yea i know what you mean, most servers have like 2 custom items/maps and they keep the same exp from main server and boost the exp rates and have stupid admins and then they claim they got the bests server.

Its because most people dont know how C++ and they either use Seose which cant get you to far or they would use some one's revision and do nothing special with it. Thats why with my server me and a friend were going to wait until we get some experience with that and make lots of features and w/e.

i have a seose server that i share with my cuzin and its quite good if you have good pub maps .ect but we have some VB exp but we are waiting for eoserv to be abel to use vb we had 20 players we worked for a while though  they work for half an hour then say "ah screw it we can alot of people like this" 

Or they have admins that say they can code. You ask them a simple question and they can't answer.

If u make  a server that is complicated and hard to earn your stuff no one will actually play it.

Not neccesarily. Some people strive for challenges such as that.

It also provides goals which i'm sure everyone has, or needs. It makes it so that they don't get bored after 2 minutes of absolutely nothing.

Yea thats how all servers should be, but most server owners dont think like that. Look at main server, it has (had) well over 700+ people before speed came. Why did it get so high? Well because of the fact it was Hard to get items/money/levels. Of course main server was a little bit to far with this and takes weeks to level once when you get to a high level.

Most servers work like, its easy to get stuff which is stupid. Sure we all understand their trying to make a server based on hanging out and not about gameplay which is why most servers want or have Pets. Making a challenging server that is hard to get stuff but is a little more better then main server was what Im trying, and i think some other servers should attempt it.

But as it seems, all eo players care about is.."Omg cool looking armor, and sweet pets is in here, Im playing it for sure" And The few servers that i actually tried that are going with my way of playing dont get many players due to no pets or lack of custom items.

Sure custom items are great but you shouldnt play a server Only because of its items. You should play the server that has been mostly thought of, and have the best story to it. Well atleast thats my opinion, and i know most eo players dont see that.

So what you're saying in short is, your server is better because you haven't got the knowledge or skills to add decent gfx or features, and you have very low rates to compensate for what your server lacks.

Changing settings, now that is a sure fire way to improve a server (sarc). Settings have nothing to do with it lol

edit: sure low exp rates is better than high exp rates by far, because it is too easy to level on some servers. Making monsters strong to compensate the ease of gaining stats is a fair way to make things more exciting, but not better. Tbh, most server owners set out with a plan to make somethingbetter of EO to please themselves and gain fans along the way. If we all just wanted normal eo clients and features, we would have stayed on main (duh). So if you can't keep up, shh. lol.

What I actually wish is that, people start looking at the original goal. It's not a competition to see how many players you can get, genuinely people are interested in changing EO to suit their liking, which if you're good at it or have good ideas, is very fun. I think most server owners have forgotten this.

Eotards typically have low IQ's. They get excited when they see big numbers (ie. attacking 509734037, 54347309473207420 gold, etc.). The people who actually enjoy playing a game that requires strategy find this absurd and completely retarded. "Features" and "better graphics" don't make servers better. The majority of you will consider "pets" to be a feature along with other ignorant stuff like #warp, #hair, etc. They're a nuisance not a feature. The graphics I've seen look like shit for the most part. EO graphics weren't that great to begin with though.

To be fair, no one would of stayed on main. It's full of cheaters. I guarantee you if speed and other exploits were fixed on main and it was wiped, the majority would go back. Why? It was fun, didn't have retarded admins who abuse powers, and other things. I have seriously considered and proposed to Apollo that the EOSERV.net staff go together and create a completed emulator (that's stable) and leave out the crap other servers are adding and keep the original graphics.

Not interested or bothered Scott, that doesn't effect me in the slightest. What's your damn problem anyways?

edit: Are you not interested in giving people the opportunity to be creative and learn things? Because I have always been greatful for that matter, as I'm sure a lot of others are too. So why?

You act like I've offended you somehow. I'm simply stating my opinion like everyone else in this topic. If you really want to be creative and learn things, you should create your own MMORPG.

It gives everyone an oppurtunity. I'm only offended because you have completely disregarded that out of vanity.

edit: nvm I read your post wrong lol, thought you were 'going to leave out the crap' and shutting off SLN or something lol... but still, it is fun to get creative, whether it be in mspaint or with a notepad. It's just fun.

I will agree with Scott on this one. Most servers lure players in with "gimmick" graphics or features. I know for a fact that game mechanics are not it. Some servers have been running Seose and have been rather successful despite the lack of any updates to the emulator. Likewise, there are EOSERV servers out there that have a ton of hacked in things that honestly don't look appealing, but seem to work for getting players. I watched a youtube video of a private server with "harvesting". It was rather funny to see someone kill time hitting a tree for the duration of the video. Pets... everyone online has them, clutters the map and packet spams the hell out of a town map with some clustered players (inb4 most of them lag out). One thing I will admit, a staff made server as Scott mentioned would be epic, but I doubt it would be fair. Sausage could easily get a 20 player draw opening a 3-4 map arena server :P
