The epic comeback of Twelvesky 1

[almar12]

Some of you may or may not be familiar with the MMORPG Twelvesky 1, Twelvesky 1 is a well-balanced MMORPG and in my opinion possibly one of the most balanced MMORPGs I have ever played. It is not pay to win based, and every level counts in player versus player activities. Unfortunately Aeriagames had to shut down the game 4-5 years ago due to the release of an "improved version" of Twelvesky 1 that goes under the name Twelvesky 2 and because of massive abuse of the well-known dupelication hack. The main difference between Twelvesky 2 and Twelvesky 1 was that Twelvesky 2 was actually more aiming towards pay to win gameplay, and only higher levels matter in main player versus player activities.

Fortunately for every Twelvesky 1 fan, a team of several Elitepvpers members have started hosting a new Twelvesky 1 server under the name Anrinch Entertainment (They used to go under the name Next Step Gaming but have changed due to a future merge with InfiniteSky). Despite Twelvesky 1 being an old game it is still quite popular, in the first few weeks (closed beta) already 1500 accounts were created and a total of 240 players were online at the same time (Currently as of 22nd of September an average total of 400 players are online at the same moment). The well-known duplication hack and several other hacks have been fixed. Instead of being fixed on money, Anrinch Entertainment’s main goal is to keep a satisfied player base.

What's great about Anrinch in my opinion is that the company will be created by people who are just like you and me, Anrinch won't end up being a money eating machine, and surely we try our best to listen to the community and adapt accordingly, which is sadly somewhat rare nowadays.

Anrinch Entertainment as you know is a merge from NextStepGaming and InfiniteSky teams, we are not with many people but we get the job done, that is what matters. InfiniteSky has been around for like 4 years now? We do care about our player base, we are not looking for any money, although it would help us running the project,we will not ask for money. If people are willing to donate that's fine, we will be thankful.

Anrinch Entertainment is planning on sticking to the original Twelvesky 1 content and experience. They will however include a server merge with InfiniteSky when InfiniteSky is ready for launch. InfiniteSky is an improved version of Twelvesky 1 coded from scratch.
Open Beta has opened the 13th of September with a welcoming 1.5x exp rate and drop rate. To encourage players to keep playing there will be numerous of events such as monster spawns, video contests, photo of the week and more! Will you join Twelvesky 1? Share your experiences with Twelvesky 1!

Exclusive interview with Anrinch Entertainment:

 Spoiler

Why has Anrinch Entertainment decided to host a Twelvesky 1 server?

We have decided to host Twelvesky because we wanted to keep it professional and balanced. We have gathered information of how many people was willing to play Twelvesky 1, and we have found an opportunity to make it happen.

What are Anrinch Entertainments main goals?

One of most important is to enjoy providing playable game servers for players. Main priority at the moment is keeping our Twelvesky 1 community satisfied and achieving satisfaction by adapting to their needs as much as we can. We might consider hosting other games aswell, but that is something we’ll think about later on in the future.

What makes Anrinch Entertainment unique from other game organizations?

What makes Anrinch Entertainment unique is that we have a considerable amount of knowledge about how games work internally and how hacks and exploits can be sorted out. Also most game organizations only strive for money; We on the other hand strive for a satisfied community, money is not important to us.


The release of Twelvesky 1 (Anrinch Entertainment) was obviously a success, did you expect it to be so successful and why?

We did not expected to be as successful, but we are trying to provide best experience even if we are doing it for own pleasure.

How would you describe Twelvesky 1 for someone who hasn’t played the game before, what makes it unique from other mmorpgs?

Twelvesky 1 is a hack and slash mmorpg where teamwork matters, there are 3 factions who have to fight against each other in an open world, but not only PvP matters - the game also has a variety of PvE activities such as boss hunts, questing, and much more. Previous organizations when hosting Twelvesky1 have directed themselves with microtransactions. We as Anrinch Entertainment will work hard on balancing issues that previous organizations did not care about, and we decided that the balance, PvP, and the PvE activities is what will make our version of Twelvesky 1 unique.

Twelvesky 1 has a really broad community from all over the world, does this affect game play, for example server time?

We don't want to split the community between the countries. Ping issue involves all sort of game titles, but we are trying to adapt our server time to match everyone's needs as much as possible. We have already taken into account that we have players from all over the world. So far it does not affect gameplay.


What is the most important to Anrinch Entertainment?

The most important aspect to us is keeping a satisfied community, and bringing the nostalgia of old memories from players to players back.

Aeriagames Twelvesky 1 used to have Game Sages (Game sages were volunteers to help the community who had direct contact with game masters) will Anrinch Entertainment also select volunteers to help the community like game sages used to do in Aeriagames, If so what would their exact role be?

We will have Game Sage alike, we’re not sure yet what we’ll call them yet however. They are the voice of the community. They have direct contact with the GameMasters, and will help us understand our community better. We will also let them host events in the future.

Making profit is almost every company’s main objective, does this apply to Anrinch Entertainment?

This partly applies to us, we do strive for profits because we need to cover server costs. However, this is not our full time job, we are all either working or studying next to this project. We mainly do this to give the community an opportunity to play the game as long the community will allow us.

Twelvesky 1 was shut down because of the well-known duplication hack and several other hacks, has Anrinch Entertainment found a way to prevent these kind of exploits?

Yes, so far we have fixed duplication hack, vacuum hack and a couple more. We are still working on Invisible character hack, map teleport hack and the ability to pick up another’s drops before time out. This does not mean people can hack whenever they like, if we catch someone hacking, and we will, they’ll get a permanent ban from our servers.


Will Anrinch Entertainment provide the game with new content/updates in the near future?

We are already providing it with some improved translations, which are more of a community effort, and anyone can come and help us with those. It would be nice to get Auto Pill working, and maybe custom maps for PvP or some events. A lot of the new content or ideas will have to wait until InfiniteSky is ready to use. We will however open a suggestion section on our forums. This way the community can bring in their ideas and perhaps we can apply those ideas to the server.

Do you have any events/tournaments planned in the near future? If so what kind of events?
We have plans for events and tournaments in the future. However, our first priority at this moment is having a stable server and forums. If we have time we’ll start hosting events.
You have announced that once the project InfiniteSky is ready for launch you will merge it with the current server, what will be the difference between InfiniteSky and the current server?

There will be quite a few differences. For starters, it is completely coded from scratch, and designed to be more secure to not have the exploits/hacks that has plagued the game. It also consumes a lot less system resources on the server meaning it would be more efficient in handling all of the player informations and might reduce resource costs. InfiniteSky will also give us the ability to implement/code more challenging and interesting events for our players. It would also keep the client up to date with Korean makers.

People waited years just to be able to play this game again. Thats including me. Thats how great the game is. I've never played 12sky1 before, and trust me, ever since i started playing it a while ago, i can say that you cant compare 12sky2 to 12sky1. Like you said, the main difference between the two is the PVP system. Lets take weapons as an example. Weapons in 12sky1 are all balance, means you can use any weapon of your choice to PVP and any of them will be effective. Unlike in 12sky2, only 1 weapon is effective. Can you imagine how boring that is?

I've never spent this much time playing an online game before. I cant believe i actually spent atleast 5 hrs everyday playing the game. Its no doubt the best game i've ever played.

Give it a chance guys. Its WORTH A TRY!

NOTE: Please just be aware that this game is very addictive. So if you are mature enough to manage your time, thats good. Otherwise you'll just ruin your life.

#request sticky !

Hope we will be a good, unite and helpful community !

Enough with the hacks, scams ! it took 1 month to shut down an official server down for those 2 reasons and intensive using !

This is a private server and our last change (probably) to be able to play this game ever again. I don't think some1 will try to make another private-server if there still are ppl who wish to hack the game and take advantage ahead of legit ones.

There are some things that keep a community up : equality, honesty !
