Hello guys ,
Now I am gonna present you one project ,who we build almost 2 years.
We are called it - DSM - Dual Synchro Models.
That is 3 parallel machines ,one on database ,second with gameserver and the last - for loginserver.
Who work parallel with based on a little bit C++ and the core is pre-configure java (almost hand made 85%) pack .
That is the first pack ever build by this way!

Its more stable than we imagine ,but it still in project becouse there had some bug's.
We will made a beta start ,but we needed information to know the rates who u want.

That discussion its for that ,what players needed in one L2 server !

For now , me and my group are decide some things who I will share :

Retail like - full
No NPC or Autotrader for donations - that function will do a GM.
There will be 31 players in undercover ingame - to search for hack's ,bots and for trouble peoples.
There will be 24/7 online GM who will work for you ,not a some program.

With that case we are sure for :
-without auto-programs we garantee for that ,GM's to be online all day and night.
-We payd for GM's like a normal worker
-Every of that 31 players on undercover will be payed every month - you will be sure to job is done well.


Machine's specs (all machines):

6xIntel Xeon
96GB ram
10 TB storage SAS 15k RPM
3Gbit's network


We will answer for all your questions !
And dont forget to told us ,what you imagine to be in one Lineage 2 server.

Sounds interesting. IL server with such team.... It should cost a lot....

1. Why IL project?
2. Why you have such big team working for the project?
3. Since you have a lot of people working on project, how you will cover bills?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. When are you thinking to launch project (remember, summer is terrible date to open any project)?
5. What rates? With such team server should work perfectly so it obvious that server must has low rates, maybe x3?
6. What donations server will have?
7. Premium account? [Personal opinion, I hope rates will be not higher than 30% (x3 => x4 with PA)].

1.Our statistics says ,there have more than 1/3 of players who want IL .Another had different choices.
2.Our team are with 15 peoples every with one GM acc.In-game we employed gamers who will be on undercover.
3.We hope to cover all of these with your donations and ads .Every month we will made participants for real events ,who the winner will get a half of participant fee.
4.Its a really hard to say the launch date .
5.And we think that . 3-4-5 max rates will be when we are finish.
6.Donations will not had direct connection with gameplay.We will make statistics what lvl are all players and of base of that we will made donations .
7.Premium account ? - We want to pre-created the old Lineage 2 . There no Premium accounts.

Good to know but I still think you should add in donation something like 20% exp boost (only exp) for 1 hour. And can be used only up to 3 times a day. In this way, people who want powerlvl their alts/boxes/subs and so on will probably buy it. And it will effect gameplay that much as Premium account.

I am looking forward for your project. Looks promising
