    What they need to do is this...

    - Wipe ALL servers (get rid of any items legal or illegal and make people start from scratch on a clean protected server)
    - Patch the servers (stop any bugs)
    - Get decent protection (at the moment there is fuck all)
    - Get active GMs (ones where there is no corruption and regularly online)
    - Improve customer support (because it's shit)
    - Merge ALL the servers (this will consolidate all their money and reduce their TCO) and the servers will get busy again to the point where they can expand properly

    also improve the game code or w/e, its so easy nowadays to hack in Knightonline.... every hack is more fancy than the previous one.

    OR get an anticheat software.

    idk so much could be done but we are talking about k2.. so yeah

    Sadly, as you said K2 = K2, nothing more. They are only 2 letters put together.
    No one in or out of it. ^
    Well, most if not all anti-cheat software gets bypassed because most K2 / Mgame employees didn't have a college (high school even?) education and then come these turks, americans and other users who did have a life and laugh at the said anti-cheat.

    i think that getting an host (which i don't think that there is 1 like that) who can handle all the people in game, will cost them way more than they pay now.. its like hosting 15k+ players in 1 server... and add all the effects of skills and stuff..

    but i agree with the rest

    Europe KO wanted once get license for K2 patches and latest updates + overall rights.
    They contacted K2 and price was 2m USD + 80% of PUS income for it.

    It wouldn't cost K2 more money than what they pay now, it would work out cheaper

    All the "skill" effects are client side, they're not done server side. All the server handles is the database and server transactions like PUS, Anvil, Quests, Zone Changes, etc

    All K2 need to do, is get a decent cluster setup with load balancing with 2-3 well specced DBase servers and they'd save loads of money in costs of datacentres and they could expand when needed.

    It's pointless spending ~100k per month on servers (just for arguments sake) when you can consolidate all those fees to ~10k per month and have the same client base and PUS transactions

    Also, because the servers would be VERY heavily utilised, it means they would have a lot more PUS transactions because there would be lots of PK happening so more people would be spending

    It's a knock on effect, it's just K2 are too fucking stupid to implement any technical solutions to the servers. They only spend money on marketing bringing in new customers and "hyping" up their business when it's a pile of shit.

    I still remember when there was a Diez1-2-3. Now there is only 2 servers, because they are no longer active, instead K2 merely launch another server every 3-4 months or so and have some form of marketing ploy (new server, new pus sales, new chaos events, etc) and attract new business that way

    Look at games like Eve Online, it has ~40,000 players and only 1 actual "server" that is live (Tranquility), this server is on a cluster with a major SAN attached to it with a Massive DB cluster (about 10 blade servers for dbase) and 1 or 2 huge filers for the disk transactions. Membership is around £17 per month (it's P2P) that's £680,000 per year and they have minimal overheads

    Go look at their downtimes, they have DAILY maintenance every day 11-12 and the servers are always backup on time. Whenever their servers fail, they give you a time it will be fixed, and it's back up when they say it will

    If K2 bothered, they could make this game ridiculously profitable, they're simply not bothered and want to drive it into the ground making a quick buck where possible. The only reason they haven't gone under is because of the corruption (people selling illegal items) and the influx of players because of it's popularity (a game where you can cheat and make money)....

    If I was ever rich (won the lottery or some shit) I'd love to launch and promote a true KO server. You'd guarantee if you had true customer support and anti-cheat solutions etc, the business would be better.

    Just my 2p...

    Typical, they wanted "overall" rights and K2 still want to profit from the sales continously.

    This is why I can't wait to host private game servers like L4D, because they're fully legal and the companies even provide all the software and patches for people who wanna do it

    I know it's a different build (MMORPG for KO), obvioisly others are shooters etc, but still. They're not profiting but still popular
