    1. Extended the first ETA with 1 hour. It takes a bit more than expected for the CPU upgrade, everything else is almost done, so we require maximum 1 more hour for everything to be back running. Cheers!
    2. Hello OldSquaders, Today at around 18:00-18:30 we'll be performing a full maintenance on our systems. Both Inception & Phoenix will be down from 30 minutes up to 2 hours. Most probably reconnect will not work so make sure to be online in the evening to relog! In order to try to combat the delays, we're applying the only things left that can be done on our side: - Tweaked & optimised most of our scripts. - Updated all of our system softwares to latest versions. - Changed the psyhical processor (CPU) to a better one. - Reduced the tickrate of the gameserver. If after all of this measures delays are not over we have to think how to implement a second sub-server without affecting (too much) the overall gameplay. This is confirmed by our devs, but we're trying everything else with hope that it can be fixed without such measure. Basically, we have too many players (and, more important, actions/second) for a single sub-server to handle them smoothly, but sadly not enough for a healthy 2 sub-servers concept. That's why you're having much better performance on both Server20 (crywolf/valley) and on Test-Server, even though they are both on the same machine and same settings/scripts. Let's hope for the best. Except of the maintenance & the already-told measures, we've been working on the new (bigger) patch. Changelog can be found here: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/3365-patch-3420-02102019/ We had more features to release but they're not ready yet, and maintenance was settled, but we'll try to release them asap, hopefully at the end of the week. Things like Non-English warn system between players, a full FAQ with most common questions we receive, CC kills & wins, BC wins, etc. Also, the first edition of OSGM is starting from tomorrow! More info: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/3364-osgm-1/ #MakeMUGreatAgain!
    3. Release date: 02.10.2019 - After the full maintenance. Reconnect most probably won't work so make sure to be online in the evening to relog. You can leave your characters in /offattack before server is closed to increase your chances for reconnect, but it is not assured. Changelog: [FIXED] PvP Invasion sometimes not working correctly (giving PK more than 1 time / not respawning the killed one). [FIXED] Move by feet on Aida2 & Tarkan2 requiring level 200 instead of the normal level 180. [FIXED] Now PvP Invasion respawn will no longer be triggered if the killer is a monster (only by player kills). [FIXED] Now PvP Invasion respawn will no longer be triggered if the victim is in /offattack. [ADDED] Level of all leveling mobs (including DS/BC mobs) on their name. Also name of most of the monsters from game was shortened so nothing is cut from their name (due to space limitting). You need to download the new Client that will be uploaded in the next hours in order to benefit from this change (it can't be updated via Launcher). [ADDED] Zen Stones We know that you would like to sell Zen as well on Market or to deposit more Zen than your character limit so we've introduced Zen Stones! You can write /makestone to create a Zen Stone, it costs 100kk zen. You can also write /convertstone to convert a Zen Stone into 100kk zen. [ADDED] Monthly Gens Rewards A reset is made to Gens Ranking. Starting from today, each gens point will matter for the Monthly Gens Rewards. The rewards can be taken at the start of each month after the server maintenance. The rankings will also be reset at the end of each month. The rewards system is the one from WebZen: [Rank 1]: [Grand Duke] [Rank 2] ~ [Rank 5]: [Duke] [Rank 6] ~ [Rank 10]: [Marquis] [Rank 11] ~ [Rank 30]: [Count] [Rank 31] ~ [Rank 50]: [Viscount] [Rank 51] ~ [Rank 100]: [Baron] [Rank 101] ~ [Rank 200]: [Knight Commander] [Rank 201] ~ [Rank 300]: [Superior Knight] Ranking points: [Knight]: [10,000] [Contribution Points] [Guard]: [6,000] [Contribution Points] [Officer]: [3,000] [Contribution Points] [Lieutenant]: [1,500] [Contribution Points] [Sergeant]: [500] [Contribution Points] [Private]: Default Rank Ranking Rewards: [Grand Duke]: [Shining Jewelry Case] (x30) [Duke]: [Shining Jewelry Case] (x20) [Marquis]: [Elegant Jewelry Case] (x20) [Count]: [Elegant Jewelry Case] (x10) [Viscount]: [Steel Jewelry Case] (x10) [Baron]: [Steel Jewelry Case] (x5) [Knight Commander]: [Old Jewelry Case] (x5) [Superior Knight]: [Old Jewelry Case] (x3) Rewards from gens boxes: Shining Jewelry Case: Jewel of Soul, Jewel of Life, Jewel of Harmony, Jewel of Creation, 40kk Zen.

Maximum points decreased on death (based on level difference): 16 points. Minimum points increased on kill (based on level difference): 21 points. Maximum points increased on kill (based on level difference): 29 points. Points flood time (interval of time needed to pass when you kill the same character in order to gain points): 3 minutes Last day of the month when you can get your reward from previous month: 7th day. [UPDATED] Interval to switch gens is now 12h (permanently) - it was reduced from the usual 24h and increased from the first weeks 3h.

    4. There's nothing related to hardware, not even 50% of resources are used from our machine, your example of test-server and server20 is clearly showing that, as both test server and server20 are on same machine despite no delays. Secondly, this is not the highest number we have online, we had over 900 (chars) as record on first 30rr edition, but we also had 2 sub-servers back then. Thirdly the "move-loops" are not related to lag but to move-speed-protection, that will probly be disabled on next update as it is giving false detections. There are too many people on same sub-server than it should optimally be on our files, but not enough to split in 2 sub-servers, not even saying that entire gameplay is thought for 1 sub-server, being 2 will hurt a lot starting from limit of accounts up to too many spots, goldens and etc. We'll hold a maintenance most probably tomorrow, we'll see how it will be after and what possibilities we have.
    5. Release date: 25.09.2019 at 21:30 - Updates are up and no restart is needed! Changelog: [FIXED] Ice Arrow working with under 5k energy. [UPDATED] BoK+3 Goldens released.
    6. You can connect up to 2 accounts in test server if you leave your accounts in off-attack on official server.
    7. Release date: 20.09.2019 at 14:40 - Updates are up and no restart is needed - make sure to update client via Launcher as well! Changelog: [FIXED] Some Event Entries require level from game being different than how they should be. [FIXED] One of the budges getting lost from his fellow invasion-buddies, spawning on different minute than the rest. [UPDATED] Adjusted mobs level dropping symbol of kundun so that on each kalima you can find the same symbol level and +1 level at Schrikers. [UPDATED] Chance of getting fruits from BoK+1/BoK+2 reduced from 30% to 20%. [UPDATED] Vega is now considered a Mid-Tier Ancient set across drops (downgraded from High Tier). [ADDED] Sword Dancer on Gold Medal as the MG weapon. [ADDED] Referral Week, read more about it here: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/3345-referral-week/
    8. Hello OldSquaders, First week of Inception is almost done, we already have our first players with reset from each class, but game didn't even fully started, as you currently have access to only like 30-40% of server content. It's a long and fun journey, that nobody should miss, and there are high chances for any newbie (especially in first month) to recover pretty easily due to our stages, and the way exp works on them. Inception reached the highest number of players (not chars) online in first week out of all of our projects until now - 350+ real players. But this can be pushed out even harder until the end of first month (when usually the record is set, based on previous editions). We've done our job, with hard marketing campaigns in order to assure a healthy start in terms of numbers. Now it's more on you to continue the push! Due to that, we're running a Referral Week, more exactly 10 days, starting from today until next Monday. The following (permanent) changes are done to Referral System: Credits per referral raised from 300 to 350. Resets needed for the referred player in order for the referrer to have the reward reduced from 15 resets to 10 resets. The following change is done until next Monday: Requirements for referring players is down to 0 resets and level 100 from 2 resets and level 200. That means, from now until next Monday everyone (with at least level 100) can invite friends or strangers to join Inception, instead of only 2rr+ persons. What you have to do is to ask your friends/strangers to write your character name on Referral field on registration. When they reach 10 resets you will earn 350 credits for each referred user. You can get referrals from any kind of places like skype, facebook groups, etc. Cheers!

    10. Release date: 19.09.2019 at 14:00 - Updates are up and no restart is needed - make sure to update client via Launcher as well! Changelog: [UPDATED] We've come with a fix so you don't need dcfriend or manual disconnect from staff if you leave 2 acc in off-attack: Now the limit from server-side (not client-side) is 3 acc instead of 2 (so you can safely disconnect your off-attacks). But, we've added manual checks if you enter the 3rd character on IP, so it will disconnect it right after entering (if 2 accs are already connected on IP). It will disconnect either the last char logged or the first one (it's depending). [UPDATED] Now summoners can use Cometfall (blast) skill, to have an alternative to the delayed chain lightning on server 1, especially on higher agility.
    11. If I let you play after your trash talk about us before and during Phoenix doesn't mean it is something granted, don't force your luck. Gud luck.
    12. Summoner has the same delay since 2016. It will always be when there are many online compared to 0 online on test/sv20. Not fixable.
    13. I've found a solution, and on my own tests, it does work I'll probably release it live later on today, but would like you guys to test it out as well on test server. Basically, the solution I've found is to have the limit on connections to 3 on server-side (client side still 2) - so you can d.c your off-attacks - but make a manual check of accounts connected on IP after you enter the character. So, if you have 2 accounts online on the IP when you enter the 3rd character, it will close the game on your 3rd character (in 90% of cases, it will close the game on the last entered character, but in case of server disconnects/maintenances the order will be random until you enter manually the first 2 again). It's not that beautiful as I would hope to, but at least it's something to fix the problem. Looking forward your feedback from test-server.
    14. Release date: 16.09.2019 at 14:10 - Updates are up and no restart is needed! Changelog: [UPDATED] Reworked Reset Zen Table Old version: Resets cost starts from 100kk and goes up as following: Each extra reset until 10 resets = + 15.000.000 zen per reset. The 10th reset = 235.000.000 zen Each extra reset until 20 resets = + 30.000.000 zen per reset. The 20th reset = 535.000.000 zen Each extra reset until 25 resets = + 50.000.000 zen per reset. The 25th reset = 785.000.000 zen Each extra reset until 30 resets = + 100.000.000 zen per reset. New version: Resets cost starts from 40kk and goes up as following: Each extra reset until 5 resets = + 10.000.000 zen per reset. The 5th reset = 90.000.000 zen Each extra reset until 10 resets = + 15.000.000 zen per reset. The 10th reset = 165.000.000 zen Each extra reset until 20 resets = + 30.000.000 zen per reset. The 20th reset = 465.000.000 zen Each extra reset until 30 resets = + 60.000.000 zen per reset. [UPDATED] BoK+2 goldens are now released!
    15. + [FIXED] Quiz Event not resetting the answers limit from the previous edition. [FIXED] Warp pvparena not working (we still made the arena with the working version). [FIXED] Illusion of Kundun missing one 'zero' in his HP. [UPDATED] Weekly rankings are now up and the ex points have been reset. BoK+2 Goldens will be released during today (Monday).
    16. Release date: 15.09.2019 at 18:00 - Updates are up and no restart is needed! Changelog: [FIXED] Market price being 2kk instead of 1kk when adding from Game Warehouse (instead of web warehouse). [UPDATED] RF base skill damage on Roar & Dark Side was raised. We understand that not everyone does have a team to carry the RF in early game, so we made a small boost that doesn't scale along the game, just like we did with other important pvm skills except RF ones (ES, Lightning shock, etc.). [FIXED] Quiz Event not resetting the answers limit from the previous edition. [FIXED] Warp pvparena not working (we still made the arena with the working version). [FIXED] Illusion of Kundun missing one 'zero' in his HP. [UPDATED] Weekly rankings are now up and the ex points have been reset. BoK+2 Goldens will be released during today (Monday).
    17. + [FIXED] Move Limit checks happening on 0 resets (they should happen after 1st reset).
    18. Release date: 14.09.2019 at 15:35 - Updates are up and no restart is needed! Changelog: [ADDED] Reset Stats Fruits +6~9 on BoK+1 and BoK+2. You have 30% chance to drop a reset fruit from BoKs apart from the exc item. They reset between 80~140 points depending on +. You can drop AGI & ENE reset fruits on BoK+1 (and CMD with lower chance). You can drop STR & VIT reset fruits on BoK+2. [FIXED] Move Limit checks happening on 0 resets (they should happen after 1st reset). [UPDATED] Gens switch time is now 3 hours (just for first week, to help at leveling, then back to 24h). [UPDATED] Market price to add an item is now 1kk zen instead of 3kk zen (just for early, will be raised as game progress though).
    19. All Inception updates will have patch names and they will be posted in this Updates Tracker section. The first patch name will be "Patch 3.1.1.0". Explication of each digit from patch name: - First digit (in our case, 1): Current edition from the server (1 - first edition, 2 - second edition, etc.) - Second digit (in our case, 1): Will change if there is any client modifications (that requires update via Launcher) - if it is unchanged compared to last patch, that means no client modifications - no update from launcher needed. - Third digit (in our case, 1): If it is changed that means there is a 'bigger' update, with either new features, new impactfull changes, etc. - Fourth digit (in our case, 0): If it is changed that means the update is a smaller one, containing only new fixes, improvements, or any changes/corrections of the bigger patch that contain them. To make sure you understand, I'll comment the next patch name: Patch 2.4.7.2 That means the patch is part of the 2nd edition of the server, it had already 3 client modifications that required update via Launcher, it is currently on the 7th bigger update from the edition and it has 2 small updates since the 7th bigger one. Cheers!
    20. It is not working because you need to send an actual packet to disconnect a char in game, which website can't do I am speaking with devs if we can find a work-around, but for now my statement remains up 😛
    21. Hi there, Yes, you can't really leave 2 chars in off-attack without manual intervention (disconnect by dcfriend or disconnect by us). And I'm pretty sure it can't be fixed because the IP limit is acting before anything else, so after reaching 2 acc on ip connected it will just disconnect you, not letting you disconnect the off-char first. We'll think about a solution but I doubt will find one, so either 1 off-attack or 2 off-attacks with manual intervention. Cheers
    22. Server is now opened for public! Monsters will spawn in 1 hour (at 20:00)! Cheers!
    23. Good note, they're added now, were missing. Neil - Silver. Lagle - Gold.
