Legacy Returns: Official Release Date

[Tessel 0]

From what I've seen and from the people I've talked to, I think most people are aiming to make the fresh server their main server. The server cap is going to have its work cut out for it.  I think a pvp and a fresh pve server would probably accomodate the demand a little better.

I am pretty sure this is to even out population to make the new pvp server start more smooth, because some people wont start new when they get into their characters again on the old servers. It is annoying to the playerbase but it is the right call to not have the old servers die in my opinion

Can PLEASE SOMEONE make me understand       

What's the difference between PVP AND PVE servers

I mean those pvp have no pve at all?       or is it about the low level zones , restrictions 

or .....no battle grounds? or WE can OPT ON our profile when to PVP or  by right clicking the icon like in advanced servers... how is this working, please make me understand 

PvP servers are for the leet kiddies who want to gank people that have no chance of fighting back, so they can feel good about themselves.

 

You can't do that on PvE servers, so naturally, the leet kiddies cry "CAREBEARS! CAREBEARS!" because apparently if you don't like being ganked and corpse camped, you're a "carebear"

^^^ yup, they result to name calling because you prefer a different play style then they do. So, if you are an adult or at least act like one, come to the PvE server. (not that there aren't mature players on PvP servers but that it does attract very immature players).

Error. Most of people who wants fresh server are not part of this community yet  (i mean the people who didnt play nostalrius, a whole lot) . People who have been playing Nostalrius since it was built, want their stuff back, because they (including me) put a lot of work in their characters, that means thousand of hours... 

"In the end , pleasing the community is the only thing should matter", do you think because of an hype train and a reddit strawpoll, the fresh server has priority over the old one? you are very wrong if you think so. 

 

Besides of that, you will be getting your fresh server a few weeks after the Old ones, that was already stated, just check some forums.

From their own announcement in reddit: "We understand that the majority of players are looking forward to playing on the Elysium PvP fresh realm." 

Also when you say:

 

 

"In the end , pleasing the community is the only thing should matter", do you think because of an hype train and a reddit strawpoll, the fresh server has priority over the old one? you are very wrong if you think so. 

If pleasing the community was actually what mattered, fresh would be released first since, again as they stated themselves, its what most people want. But they have to release old pvp before so that it doesn't die. Its also funny that you say nostalrius players want their stuff back. There's a whole lot of nostalrius players with 60's who still prefer the fresh one (myself included).

 

And yea, we will be getting fresh servers, what bothers me is the secrecy about it. Feels like nostalrius announcement all over again. You really think they dont know when they can release the server yet? Only case i can think of it being that way is that they want to see how old nost launches, and if they plan on not giving a date until then, GL. Christmas would be the perfect time for a new server release since people have free time. But hey, if they only open the old ones during christmas break, some people will play in them like mindless sheep and forget about fresh.

I wanted to start again on the fresh server because switching from Alli to Horde, but if it's released after the holidays (maybe) i'll just start on the old one or drop it. Not sure yet but starting in new year when work kicks in again isn't a option.

So let's get 1 notion straight first: the PvP flag concept. If you are flagged for PvP, you can be attacked by players from the opposing faction. When you attack a player or a NPC from the opposing faction, you will automatically be flagged for PvP. Normally, there is an option to disable the PvP flag, which will disable it if no PvP action has been taken in the last 5 minutes.

Now, there are 3 types of zones: Friendly (marked with a green name on the minimap), Contested (orange name) and Hostile (red name).

In Friendly territory you cannot be attacked by players from the opposing faction unless you attack them first. In Hostile territory you can be attacked by anyone from the opposing faction, but you cannot attack anyone who hasn't attacked you first (who is not flagged for PvP).

The difference between PvP and PvE servers lies in how Contested areas are managed. On a PvP server, you will automatically be flagged for PvP when you enter a Contested area, so you can be attacked by any player from the opposing faction. The "disable PvP flag" option is disabled in Contested areas while on a PvP server. On a PvE server, if you want to be able to attack other players, you have to flag yourself for PvP by either attacking players (that are flagged for PvP) or NPCs from the opposing faction.

You can raid and do battlegrounds on both server types, this is the only major difference between them. (another major difference would probably be the players)

Really don't  understand the "outrage" about no release date for the fresh realm. Elysium have stated in so many posts that the fresh one will be released after the old nost pvp server, and the reasoning behind it. And they even stated prior to this last stresstest that they would not announce release date for the fresh server yet.

 

And they even gave a timeline, 3-4 weeks after depending on how smooth the launch is, so there is no secrecy, they just wanna make sure the first servers are stable before releasing what will be the biggest server.

 

The only new to happen here is that the PvE realm got moved up to be released at the same time as the PvP one.

Loved the small Announcement trailer, guys. Thank you for all the hard work, looking forward to history to happen.

Since it isn't said enough by the silent majority (minority?), I'm very excited to see how the servers are being released. There is a lot of hype and just opening the pvp server probably would have been overwhelming. Opening both existing servers is awesome and will even out the pop a lot and give people time to remember that their character wasn't so bad after all and maybe that gear they got was pretty cool and wouldn't it be great to go into bwl right away? And if they want to start over in fresh then great, enjoy it. The interest in this project is huge and I have zero worries about population of any of these servers. But to bicker back and forth, especially the new supporters is extremely childish and divisive. This project is special. We all know it. That's why it got so popular. So take a deep breath, calm down, and I'll see you on the 17th, ok?

Woke up from my nap to see see this new post I see a lot of repeat questions and not fully filled-or incorrect responses, so I'll throw in some more info that I remember. 

 

3 - 4 weeks after the old realms launch

 

They said at most 3-4 weeks after the 1st release, they did say they are hoping for a lot sooner though.

 

I don't understand.. lot of player wait fresh server..  What about the fresh ? 

 

They have stated multiple times that fresh will not be 1st, this news is months old. It will come soon™ (within 3-4 weeks)

In PvP servers if your in friendly territory you are able to choose to be marked for PvP or not, and while in neutral or enemy territory you are automatically marked for PvP and don't have a choice.

In PvE servers, you can choose to be marked in both friendly and neutral, and are only forced to be tagged for PvP if you're in enemy territory.

So the difference is whether you are able to choose to be marked for PvP or not in neutral territory (PvE), or if you are forced to be marked for PvP in neutral territory,

 

+1 We really need more appreciative and calm comments like yours.

 

 

Agreed.

 

Now for a question of my own:
Will you guys be releasing a timeline of events and content releases for each of the server, like both Nost and old Elys had? (I.E. progress bar showing Gurubashi patch estimated release, and how far through the current content we are). And if so, when will you be releasing this? Thank you in advance for your answer!

 

Finally,

Thank you so much for all your hard work Elysium staff! We appreciate it so much, and even if some people do seem upset by 1 or 2 things, they are still happy that you are giving us this opportunity, even if they may not say it. Thank you so much and I pray that God blesses you for your devotion to the legacy community!

I don't understand.. lot of player wait fresh server..  What about the fresh ? 

A fresh server means everyone will start from level one. Yea i get that people will complain about everyone trying to farm the same mobs but a lot of the fun comes from people making groups to help one another. I will be waiting for the fresh server because I will enjoy the race from 1 to 60 it will be insane and will make a lot of great memories.

Totally agree, great going dev team. Glad to see the servers back soon. Wonder if my guild is still around?

probly the best way to do it so old nost doesn't die

FRESH REALM HYPE

[Oriomnu 1]

And stop bitching around!!....

.........show some respect for this great team of volunteers, that do all of this without asking for anything in return!!!

You're right, and i hope the devs know how much we appreciate their efforts.

Sorry for the double post

Don't worry too much about it, people who behave like this usually have problematic personalities in real life and because they stay anonymous on the internet, they don't have self restraint. I can assure you they are a minority, the majority of us are very fond of devs and we really appreciate what they're doing for us.

hell yeah oh yeah baby!!!! i cant believe it.... but this ваууing hype is real!! thank u so much guys! see u on launch day

[Mikkelsen91 0]

Maybe a stupid question.

I must have missed something, does the transfer from the old nost to this new one happen automaticly?

Cause at the stresstest i couldnt see my mage when i logged in.

The database of nost characters wasn't used for the test.

The stresstests had their own accounts and characters. The PvP and PvE servers that are being released the 17th will have your characters.

Professor Putricide yells: Good news, everyone!

 

Great news, Elysium team. Thanks for the constant updates. 

 

I would like to repeat this caution: a launch with a fixed date & time on a Saturday is going to hurt your chances of a smooth launch. I understand why you would want to chase the numbers to break records and whatnot for the flashy report numbers, but consequently a struggling launch may not be something that helps the rebranding.

 

Anyway good luck, see you then.

Actually a solid point. Except for the data that comes with it, the release day should be just enough for a stable release.

Are you aware that you are trying to reason with people who are reasonable like rhinoceros in mating season?

Ok sorry you are right.

It´s just ...you know ... Ive got feelings too and... sometimes I GET ENRAGE!!!!

 

I did not want to take someones opinion.

I just was asking for a little bit more respect, confidence and graditude towards the dev-team

[SowjetRocket 0]

Great news, Elysium team. Thanks for the constant updates and ofcourse for the great job you have done so far.

 

I have never played on the old nost server. When i decided to start playing on the nost server you have brought us the bad news about the shut down of the server. Since you have brought us the great news of start the projekt again, ill gonna play it now. 

 

For me as a beginner the fresh server would be fair. I dont want to play on the old nost server, becouse most of the pople will outgeare me in every way of the game. 

So thats why i hope you will bring the fresh realm on christmas or ven this month to keep the hype. 

 

Please dont destroy the hype and give us the new fresh server assap

[adiAdrianadi 1]

Too long for me I hope all December we can make fun and just play nost. 18 dec to late ....... And when new server in next year ? Im not happy its make to much time to play on private server when they have ready code base...
