9Dragons Eclipse ETA?

[bog18dy]

^Thought of posting interesting stuff... Makes you realise how many versions of binaries were out there, that's the thai build, probably used for the first VN public ps.

So you guys claim to have the latest KR binaries. A good clearifying SS or video of the files proving your claims wouldn't hurt anyone.

Even KR 2009 files would amaze me at this point, because files are public. I highly doubt anybody has awaken files.

If this ever happens, my $ is in it as well, but the past few years made me skeptical, every pserver claimed to have more and better content and in the end all were the same ******.
But let's see, maybe this one is the diamond.

Content won't go past custom items, mobs and MAYBE skills/masteries.

That's how it is, play9d had a hacker behind it and it was a business overall. Thus it was able to provide at the time new content (later they couldn't provide new content either), also being a business meant having guys who watch over the server (well except the last part where the server was left to die).

If there isn't a public leak or somebody selling the newer binaries (/source) people will revamp Z9D from now on, that's the limit to all US based servers.

Shamefully I have to agree u on this one, probably won't be anything new.

If warvox was p9d's hacker, what was zeron in zeron? I'm just curious what his title/profession is.

Web Developer, also helped with some other stuff. He was the hoster of z9d.

Also obviously, but run privates, but v0x does it on a bigger scale, way bigger.

I know what they're working on, but I can tell you it won't beat 1.5 @ RF when it comes. So it depends what you expect really.

[eddwood]

Zeron was the guy behind the curtain, like in that movie The Wizard of Oz.

He never existed.

The most important thing is to listen to the community and implement regular updates. 9DS is the perfect example of that.

9D community doesn't know what they want most of the time, and listening to most of their suggestion is no better than beating a dead horse. One day they be complaining about one thing, and the next something else. Speed is the first that come to mind. How are you going to complain about CoS buff, when you have clothes that have slots in it? Lol..

The server never has that much of a balance anyway in my opinion. People think it is because everybody has only one set of relic to use, and the only difference come down to your play style, and obviously your build. If I remember right, and I might be wrong. R1 people were stacking banners from those pouches, so whoever has the most blue/black is the winner. R3 is basically a nuker server, since you don't even need to shield multiple time which eliminate the need to be tactical. If you somehow get owned as a nuker, then I don't know what to say. R2/R4 is probably the most balance, but then everybody has only one set of relic to use which is the M&D that can be easily be obtain.

I don't think Play9D bring that much new contents in since they're just using the Europe version. It's just a modify version of the US at the time, and is easier obviously.

I don't believe that 9D's private servers scene need new contents to be good either, because most of them are only fun for the PvE aspect and totally ruin the PvP due to limitation. People will only do those PvE elements to a certain point, before they get bored and quit. PvP on the other hand is forever. If I want to do dungeon, kill mobs or whatever. There are plenty of newer MMO that can satisfy that just fine. The server owner should be focusing on how to make the server fun with the contents that are there, not trying to add in newer shits that they don't know anything about.

It's impossible to compete with P9D, and not because it was so good, but it was the first private, so everybody was united there, and there was no competition so everybody had to play by the rules of P9D. First experience for noobs like me that u could actually hit that IM/HG, buy some nasty things in item mall without leaving ur 1 month salary for a few scales like officials.
P9D wasn't rly about the content/balance, but about the fact that u could fk off from GC at last.

And imo that's what applies now as well.. The only decent way to make a long lasting Pserver is if it has the same content as the official RF, so people can fk off from RF and do the same thing on a Pserver faster and cheaper, that's why all these new pservers fail so fast, because they have outdated content and competition.

^ This. Depends if content = custom content, imo the community isn't satisfied with just that and wants core new features like cloths refine, sealing, raids, raid bosses system (huge HP bar), new refines,etc

Btw realised that the story of 9D is kind of deep actually. After a lot of time I understood the trailer, the SF lady was the lover of Jun and after going to war (3 years ago from when the trailer is happening) Lingyun fell in love with her( and basically left his clan), she played both guys in order to kill each other and end the war, poetry xD
