Does a playerworld need to be "Hosted" before it can be "Classic"?

Rufus · #1 11-13-2006, 04:56 AM

Simple question, does a playerworld need to be on the "Hosted" tab before it can be moved to "Classic" (if that). I'm considdering making a very "Zelda-esque" server, based on the fact that no servers seem to quite hit that mark these days and it would be pointless having a server "Hosted" for everyone to do quests before it's released.

I dont think it does. I heard one server went from private to classic, i think bravo or some playerworld.

Well, we haven't really got a server that would appeal to Zelda fans right now, and I truely believe it would bring boatloads of people in. If I were to make a server, I'd pay for advertisements, but I really don't want to "manage" right now and put up with the stuff they have to; I just like to develop and put my ideas into motion.

I've always wanted that Zelda styled server to play, but servers these days don't provide that that anymore since Classic died (beyond what seems the point of no return), hence me wanting to make one.

I know, but what's familiar graphics without the gameplay

zelda was only great for 1 player action. I wouldnt think it would fit a mmorpg. And most classic servers have the zelda characterisitc, at least some of the items.

Obviously the server wouldn't be based on quests alone, but the quests themselves can be aimed at teaming up and working together. Zelda brought a cooperative multiplayer adaptation in Zelda: Four Swords, and it was effective, with A Link To The Past graphics.

I would really love to help out on this.

Expanding on what I wrote;

I checked out a couple of little things that Rufus has quickly made, and they are simple, but effective and nice. It's the little things that count that people have missed out on, or forgotten about. Think about why you liked Zelda : LTTP, and get back to me.

I'm not sure if there is a playerbase for this type of server these days actually.

Haha so true @ Crono.

Rufus look at trashy Zodiac, they have a good strong playerbase, and UN. Once something new comes out, players leave other servers which they were bored of.

Actually I heard Twilight Princess wasn't that good but thats regardless xD. You're playing for the online multi player and no console.
