So how long until the new USKO server?

[DoomBringer]

the new server is gonna have a lot of english players on it again, i think its because of Apex (tried and failed unfortunately), and perhaps from that a lot of people became interested in USKO again.

hopefully its sometime soon tbh

You are actually 100% right, atleast in my case . Also few old babas have contacted me and invited to join them once new server comes =]

."the game is all about money, even if they made a new server. It will all be the same in 3 months"

Actually and forgive me if I am wrong cause I have only been back about 2 months and still catching back up with the politics in game. But I see very good potential for a new server. GMs are actually out there banning people. And with cardinals not dropping gems k0xp has no reason to exist other than piss you and me off or go after chaos stone. Why do you think prices in every server are dropping? Cause money is starting to kind of balance out. Players are throwing more money back into the server(buying from npc scrolls and potions and other things) and we are not farming enough noah from mods and quests. So prices had to come down cause of the simple act of cardinal not dropping gems.

Sorry on-topic. idk when a new server will be out but me and some friends in my clan are going to be there and make it our home.

Good to hear that, Ntt with help of some part of KO community put alot effort to make USKO better place. And yes not eveything is perfect yet - but it has to be done step by step. Ppl should stop blame Ntt for mess that k2 left behind them.

Nobody is blaming NTT, but they dont make difference between NTT and K2.
K2 didnt lack only with KO, also their other games were chaotic, full of cheaters etc.

Actually most if not all +10 crazy items came from corrupt K2 GM's back in the day,
NTT introduced OTP, XignCode and have (compared to KO) GM's that are a lot more active.
There are regular bans, and hardly any cheaters.

I think NTT has stepped the game up quite a bit, ofc there's still room for improvement...

As i was saying, KO wasnt the only game suffering under K2, Warrock and few others did suffer the same fate, corrupt staff, chaotic gameplay (i mean full of cheaters) etc.
Ntt is stepped up its game i guess but its still heavily p2w

Aha, gotcha, totally agree with this.
But then - it really is the players that made it p2w (aka, the babashoppers).
It's very hard for a company to fight this because they can't possibly track who pays for items...

I can tell you this much - if you're too obvious about it, you do get banned.
And some illegal insane item holding accounts did get banned too (even recently)

at which point it becomes too obvious?
When someone buys some gbs? or when someone suddenly gets +9 set with +1 uniques?
Its still a bit unclear for admins to work it out. I dont think that babashopping should be bannable tho. Even tho its p2w its been like this forever and i dont see a big problem, rather i see a problem with dragon box. Remember times when cs was rare and good item? well not anymore, thx to dragonbox you have a chanse of getting +3 cs. GGWP

What i find current KO biggest problem is its emulator, well basically its 100% outdated, if it wants to compete against biggest MMORPGs they have to release KO v2 aka update everything. Rework the game from ground 0. Better graphics, smoother game play, new quests (reworked or w/e).
But right now, people who are playing KO are those who started way back and no new community comes along

"Too Obvious" means when its a new server and you're rocking dual rof's 3
Stuff like that...

If someone suddenly has full +9's and +3 uniques, they can't REALLY tell its bad - unless, say, the +9's are UTC / Chaos / Krowaz in a new server.. thats how I meant "too obvious"

I agree, I don't think babashopping should be a bannable offence - Its what keeps the game going actually...


The one thing I'm super scared about if they do rework the whole game is the fact that they'll mess it up,
Everything won't quite work the same...

But it would be able to compete with new standards in MMORPG It will never be as good as WOW, RIFT, Path oF Exile or whatever newer generation mmorpg (tho WOW is as old as KO, and it was already during that time so far ahead of its time, and its still one of the best).

non of that games you have mention had PK system that could match KO - Since i start play KO i checked out at least dozen other MMORPG and non of it dragged me for more than few months - for me at the end only PK matters.

I'm exactly the same. I've played dozens of MMORPGs and NONE have kept me playing very long only due to lack of "pull" (ie: PK isn't fluid in the sense that KO is; if that makes any sense?).

Also the improvement of support. But has brought the support system with higher service and dedication to the community .

The game is a thousand times better with NTT running it. Anyone that has come back recently after the old K2 times should recognize this.

the thing is most of those who didint try USKO in recent times keep lament about how bad it is.
