I will see that.

#EDITED#

Some valuable information:

Online points are not awarded through a random system - you gain an online point for being online for one hour straight. So if you login at 00:25 you will receive a point at 01:25, if you disconnect it starts counting all over again.

And if you can't learn from your betters/competition you have already failed. your attitude is simply your way and your way you do not take player input you think your constantly right guess what? every player i have talked to have said the exact same thing about you my suggestions at least my older suggestions have been suggestions for what you advertised classic conquer experience with extras added on top so sorry for suggesting you fix things you broke or changed from classic. here is a quote from you on your forums which again just shows how little you know please at least try it for yourself because i had market stalls up every day 24/7 at the end of the month they had like 200points instead of roughly 700+ And the "with a wider and different audience" remark made me chuckle you mean the classic audience? yeah very different /sarcasm oh sorry last i check you advertised this server as a classic server with added extras which would en tile that all the basic classic function would be working just like in classic which happens to be what most of my suggestions was about putting it back how classic had it so i do blame you because you are miss advertising the server. ps. still waiting on this so called money you spend on advertising proof.

I'm not for or against this server, but Nyorai drives some good points that I'd call good judgement. You're free to disagree and call him greedy, but I can see and understand where he's coming from, and I support his points. At the end of the day, if you don't like what the server provides... just play another server. You voiced your concerns, so move on.

And if anything im doing a service to any new player that might wonder in not knowing any better they deserve to know the truth had i known i would have avoided this server unfortunately things are not very apparent till you invested heavily. now they have the info and can make an informed decision. and please do tell what good judgements these are? or is this more of ah hes a good friend ill just stick up for him? because that's what we call being bias

I'm fine with having a conversation with you, but not if you're going to start insulting my position and claiming I'm biased. Yes, I'm defending the server - that is my opinion. Looking at the thread and the owner's constant updates and development visibility, and the server website with all its server information, it seems very apparent what the server provides. I'm not saying you're completely in the wrong or that your feedback shouldn't be looked at, but I think there's another way you can approach giving feedback other than being aggressive and insulting. At the end of the day, you donated... and looking at the donation page, it outlines exactly what that gives you. You're welcome to give further feedback, but I don't think the server owner is obligated to implement every change you request just because you donated. That isn't stated anywhere in the donation features. There's a point where you're hurting your own cause. I'd recommend following up with the owner privately to see what can be improved for your situation in specific.

Everyone has a different definition of classic. You have your own opinions of what classic should be, but the server advertises itself very clearly with its own definition. I believe you're wrong about how the server presents itself. As you can see from the first page, I've known this server since the start. My first reply was complimenting the description of the server. I'm looking at this thread, the owner's replies, and the website as evidence that you are wrong. Take the discussion offline with the owner, because this isn't constructive or helpful for anyone here.

So online points was capped which would explain why i wasn't getting the 700points that i should have on sellers for the month. unfortunately you have learnt nothing from this back and forth its a shame really but i will leave it at that with time you will see things clearly but I'm afraid by then it will be to late. i feel you should think things though and put yourself in the players shoes and play it as a new player with no vip see for yourself why that's not a good idea. And the sad fact about all this its such an easy fix I didn't bother quote the rest because honestly it was a bit pointless and ive made my point on those subjects.

VIP does exactly what it says it does, which is support server costs without being too much of an overpowering advantage against regular players. It shouldn't be as easily accessible to non-donators. That's the point. Isn't that obvious? If you have a problem, then again, go play on another server. As you've said a few times now, "leave it at that". You voiced your concerns, so leave it; otherwise, it's a rule violation. At some point ago, this became spam.

I'm asking because your history of random posts on several sections really seems a bit suspicious :p

So you're claiming I have over 100 accounts logged in?
I didn't defend anything, I only asked you to elaborate your reply because a quick look at your recent posts clearly shows you're just trying to increase your post count.

Nothing against it, keep up with it, just don't do it here please

Shannara is one of the few servers that constantly do updates unlike the rest of the so called "classic servers" out there and would consider them a good competitor to force myself to make quality updates as well and visa versa

How often did L2h do content updates and bug fixes ? how good was the source it was using ? how many speeders/aimbotters were there ? was there any anti cheat protection ? how good was the host ? were there any custom pve/pvp tournaments ? how long did it take for it to implement an infinite stamina room ? was there infinite stamina duel rooms with accuracy and hits counter ? how often did you see Janix (L2h's owner) in game ?

If you answer these questions honestly you will see that Shannara is better in all these aspects than L2h but L2h still had a more active community than Shannara that's true and the reason behind that is pretty obvious, the classic version of this game is so fucking old and I rarely if ever see anyone below eighteen years old in any classic server, a lot of the veteran players already quit and moved on with their lives (believe me I know it) and at the same time it's not getting any new players because the younger fans of this game don't relate to the classic version and they head directly into modern servers and the classic players who are still willing to play prefer lower rates servers because they don't have as much time now to put into grinding as they used to before.
What I see here is you not accepting that very fact and instead are trying to take it out on Nyorai who is doing a good job developing/running the server, he may not be doing a perfect job in your opinion, I accept that, but the fact is the server has the potential to attract more players than L2h did but the problem is there are not as much players now.

Howdy !

In the first place I'd like to thank the previous comments giving some feedback about the server :)

Below I'll be leaving a list of the things that have been added/changed on our latest patch/update.

Skill PK Tournament

Similar to Elite PK Tournament previously described on this thread, Skill PK Tournament was added as an elimination ladder type of event. All the matches pairing logic is similar to the one used on Elite PK Tournament, however, in this tournament, instead of dealing the regular damage, players will be fighting in matches where they're only allowed to use aim-based skills (FastBlade/ScentSword/ViperFang).
Players will be fighting on a 10 hit match in which no damage will be dealt, meaning the first one to land 10 hits on the opponent will win the match and keep fighting until a winner for the tournament is found.


Weapon skins

Even tho this feature is not yet available for player's use, we've implemented support for using weapon skins in the future. This will give us alot of new options to both reward players for winning events as well as giving a little boost to items which value have been decreasing due to lack of usage by the community as a whole.

Guild Fund

As an attempt to approach our experience to what you originally had on Conquer Online, we've made a few changes to Guilds, most specifically, the Guild Fund as follows:

• Guild Fund can now assume negative values;
• Guild members contribution can now assume negative values;
• Players won't be able to use GuildConductors, speak on Guild chat or disband Guild with negative Guild Fund;

Guild Controllers

As said above, we've been trying to make things as close as possible to what they used to be on the original game, therefore we've now allowed Guild Leaders the possibility of moving the GuildControllers in case they've won the Guild War.

DisCity Invitation

As a way to make the DisCity Event somewhat more attractive, we've decided to use a custom invitation dialog for it that will helpfully motivate players to join the event from now on. Once players click "Enter" they'll be automatically teleported to Ape City.



Bug fixes:

• Arena Qualifier no longer announces the wrong player as winner when one doesn't accept the invitation;
• Some CCGW Gates can no longer be jumped over;
• You can no longer heal the pole/gates while dead;
• ClassPK Halos aren't removed anymore by TopBP Halos;
• Only the Guild Leader can heal the pole;

Look great

Hey hey ! How's everyone doing? =)

Wondering what we've been working on?
Here's a sneak peak of our latest work at Shannara Conquer. These will most-likely be added in our upcomming patch !

Message Board

One thing we've been requested a couple times now was to properly implement the MessageBoard that we so much loved to use back in the days and so, we've decided to give it a go and get the board working =)

You'll be able to post messages in 5 different sections (Trade, Friend, Team, Guild, Others) and every player is only allowed to have one message per section. Therefore, if you submit a new message, it will replace the older one.

Guild section will only let the people who belong to the same guild as the one who sent the message read the message. This can be used by several members to leave a message to the guild before going offline =)

Please take note that messages with more than 63 letters will be cut. You'll be able to read the full message by selecting it and clicking "View" as shown below.


Weapon Souls

Even tho this feature is not yet available for player's use, in our latest patch we've implemented support for using weapon skins in the future. This will give us alot of new options to both reward players for winning events as well as giving a little boost to items which value have been decreasing due to lack of usage by the community as a whole.

In this video below, you can see an example of a test version of the forging feature that we might be using in the future.


Player Guards

On his first post in this thread, @[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] pointed out something about player guards not locking up against their targets and stop attacking after their owner sitted, etc.

Player guards will now lock on target meaning they will keep attacking the target after you stop attacking it while it's on their sight,
please take note that if a player goes offscreen and comes back, the guard will continue attacking. You'll have to summon a new one to make it stop as it's supposed to be.

Minor bug fixes:

• You can no longer stig players who have Magic Shield activated;

Please take note that none of these have been released yet and this is not the full changelog for the next patch as this is just a sneak peak of our current development.
