Okay,..
Dammit guys,.. when will I see this community reaching maturity ??
Before am gonna state my opinion in this thread. "Releasing or not, & the responses",..... LET ME GRAB YOUR ATTENTION A-MINUTE .
So, forget the hole debate thing, and lets see the subject of .274 files logically.
As you know back in 2011~2012 .188 files got leaked, and resulted in a ton of pservers,.... hunting all isro player base and it succeeded
& resulted in this "Childish" Community,...
Joymax after a couple of years figured the solution by reworking sro, through adding the new job system ... etc.
and it was a great move, the remaining pserver player base started to test it, and they liked it, but the player base didn't want to play on Joymax(the Main reason Joymax murged the server*to increase online rate*)
And thats the time when Csro-r got released, and through the past couple of years, it was almostly non-developed.. Just UNTIL ZYAIN WAS UP *Zyain is isro files*, which exposed even more the new features
Let's not forget it was developed by MeGaMaX.. >> Here when the psro-community really wanted the new sro system on pservers.
so a couple of servers based on csro-r got up, but CSRO-R is fully bugged, so the servers couldn't survive,..
& Syloxx noticed that, maybe he couldn't afford the time waste CSRO-R would make, So he figured creating a Server with .274 files .. which is great ...
So the main point is not the conflict between MeGaMaX & Syloxx..
its not who's winning or who's losing.
80% of a pserver succession is based on the Developing Team (Maintaining Security, Providing Update, in general reaching equilibrium between profit/managment)
20% is based on Server Features and server uniqueness....
Just like the 80/20 rule "in most of your culture sides"
The Main Point here is what advantages and disadvantages .274 files would result in.
As a Start stop reading for a minute and think of the disadvantages .274 files would make..... non ehhhh ?,.. Maybe pioneer failing ??, Well thats Syloxx/Pioneer Developers problem ... As I said, its almost on the developing team, if they would make pioneer stable more than anyother server they would succeed even if with less features...
Now lets think of the advantages:
1-Refreshing the community active rate >> increase in pserver players base
2-Decrease of isro population >> More hard-core players
3-Providing the pcommunity with up-to-date features
4-More Stable vsro DB's and better Secure files
5-Handling higher players base(online rates)
How about Dev-advantages,.. the advantages of releasing them:
1-fast bug/exploits fixes
2-new creative thinking in making pservers
3-More .274 pservers with different features, meeting players desires
****No one ever thought the real reason psro is dying is because when a server is suiting the players needs is found its instantly attacked till death... and we became forced on playing on pioneer/elamidas/electus/lavitate servers with ton of features we don't need just because they are the stable ones not the desired ones,,,... it transformed from what the players need to what the dev wants****
About MeGaMaX:
From my point of view, MeGa is one of the best devs in the scene, i have seen people swearing by Shiva is the best, maybe thats true, but from what is see MeGa is phenomenal for the obvious reasons:
1- Maybe he is a Security guy, but don't forget he acquired isro files
2- Maybe he is a bad dev, but he was able to work and maintain those files *even if the server didn't succeed, but he was able to develop those sources*
3- One of his projects, VSRO MAX, Just check it, its just amazing what potential he has... thats clearly is not from a "bad" developer
Am talking facts here not assumptions and lets not forget, he did release BR120 files.
Hey Mega, Releasing those files would be great, and i'd be pleasured testing those files,...
the fact that this community doesn't deserve it, either ways its dead, maybe on your hands it would be alive again.
And Syloxx, i really believe he got the full fixed files/sources, maybe even files more stable that pioneer one's :/
I'm not an warrior of internet boy, just stated a case here. If you know some coding stuff, good for you, you have a cookie.
