I remember Jerry and his crew. His name was red. As soon as you saw him on your screen, you knew your guild hunt was ruined.
Jerry was my TS partner in PT, we'd spend 5-6 hours a day recall pking into PT and clearing the lure for the player drop. I'd sit in BW Sz pming him name's whilst he was making his way to PT, i'd look through peoples kits to make sure they had something to drop we'd get a full group of afker and recall them deep into 4-5th into a lure. Got a tele ring off some ****er in Time Tunnel once, can't believe he afked with a tele in his bag lol.
Tbf, when my server tested people were crying 4 hours in because they couldn't kill each other in 3-4 hits.
This is a valid point, It will only appeal to a small section of the community.

If the aim is to bring in a solid 80 users at launch then dwindle to sub 30 in a month then crack on
I personally feel a well made low rate server with the euro feel is definitely capable of hitting high usercounts , just think this version is abit OTT on the “vanilla” mir style

Chronicles, Marble, Zircon all high user count, and low-ish rates, If there is incentive, then no reason why this couldn't reach.
There just needs to be a small reason for people to play during patches... whether there be an achievement system, or non game changing skin etc to suit tht patch (spider patch = spider skin)
Nothing wrong with expanding on Casino, Lottery, daily quests, not these "kill 50 omas, 10 bone elites, 1 zuma", ones which actually should be an achievement to do!
PK 1 person level 10+
Collect 500k Gold
Run 5000 steps,
Kill 10 monsters
Kill 5 bosses
Kill 10 monsters with no weapon

Marble died faster than people seem to remember lol, Zircon is obviously still going strong and Chronicles was good , but they were never true low rates
going back to 1.4/1.9 days and not having TDB for weeks on weeks , that’s a proper low rate, no server does that now as it’s just not attractive , most of the so called “low rates” with proper “progression” are really medium rates where you are 40 within 6 weeks maximum , but when you hit 40 all the caves are there and ready for you.
The OPs server could work but it would need lots of work to make it interesting longer than a month.

Problem with making spells like TDB rare etc is that one person gets it and rapes, everybody moans and it could be 2-3 weeks until it drops again and if in same guuld due to server population size gives them a massive advantage. i completely agree rares should be rares i hope owner doesn’t just make drops to suit the wingey few!
I am working on this project quite heavily at the moment (despite my lack of communication – have been on holiday for the last 2 weeks), however I still have a lot of work and planning to complete before I feel it’s ready for launch/testing – I will give estimates when I’m comfortable they will be reasonably accurate.
In the meantime, I’m open to input on what people miss the most from old Mir
want to try and include all things good.

As a master troll I would like to remind u dreams stay dreams and don't come true, and if not the way you imagined. Why? Because u don't live in a ****ing fairytale!
I think it should go back to Vanilla personally. That's part of the nostalgia, brutal early Mir. Patches would be on there way to "soften to blow" I'd choose Vanilla Mir 2/3 over any servers around now.
