chadz, we want the classic version of CRPG

[vinnytk]

Almost a year ago CRPG changed drastically and arguably for the worse.  We (lljk) want to host a server and shit with the old version of CRPG before XP ticks and ladder pulting was still a thing.  We aren't setting this up to compete with the current version or anything.  We just want to set up a server from back when this game was fun.

Thanks In Advance.

[Corwin]

If I remember correctly, chadz mentioned that it may be possible to set up that version with some sort of pay to play system.

[vinnytk]

Please Don't Troll


This isn't the thread for it.  This is serious.

[chadz]

Feel free to code it.

[Oberyn]

Burn.

[Vibe]

oh shiiiiiii

[vinnytk]

Feel free to code it.

You seem upset.  I feel that we might of got off on the wrong foot here and if you are offended please be assured that was not my intention at all.

While as a fellow programmer I probably could, infact, code it myself but my hope was that you would donate this outdated version to the open source community.

Truly sorry if I offended!

[Xant]

I don't think chadz wants someone to host an outdated version of his project (and control the character database etc).

cRPG is a success victim

Too much success = more ppl = more restriction = less fun

[chadz]

Actually, I might give this one a try. See how long it works out until it crumbles from plated knights on elephants.

Not saying we're doing it, but if we do, understand that:
- support will be almost nonexistant,
- same for updates,
- strategus obviously won't work with it either,
- website will be the old, horrible one

and some other things. We'll discuss it and see if it could hurt the cRPG we actually like to continue improving.

I'd try it for old times sake, any chance the old characters can be recovered?

and destroy the last chance ever for peasant wars?

I don't think so!

If this gets up, screw NA pings and welcome ye olde time cRPG  (at least for a while)

Good point, I had completely forgotten about those. To the XP barn!

We can also host this version of 'classic' cRPG on the Byzantium server for EU players

What happens if the old cRPG turns out to be more popular than "improved" one?
