### About TibiaSucks

Welcome to TibiaSucks! My name is Dip Set, and I've been an avid Tibia player since version 4. I've participated in epic wars with over a hundred players and dominated many popular retro servers.

Why TibiaSucks?
Four years ago, I realized that many servers I played were missing the essence of why we love open Tibia servers. Most players in the OT community play because, frankly, Tibia as it stands today isn't what it used to be. The game has changed in ways that made it less enjoyable, with AoE spams, cooldown timings, and hunting strategies that feel repetitive and uninspired.

### Our Vision: Make Tibia Great Again 2024

TibiaSucks aims to bring back the joy of classic Tibia (7.4) with thoughtful modifications to enhance gameplay.

#### Key Features:

• Custom Speed Formula: No more excessively fast players; manual aiming is back in style.
• Heavily Modified Client & Server: Using OTCV8 and TFS 1.4 for a smooth experience.
• Removed Forced Delays: Use items and spells without annoying server delays.
• Built-in HUD: Timers for magic walls, wild growth, and more.
• Perfect Mapclick

#### Improved Skull System:

• No Frags for Guilds: Enjoy guild wars without the penalty of unjustified kills
• Encouraged War, Discouraged Abuse: The skull system has been overhauled to support fair play

#### RPG Elements:

• Lever Bosses: 21 bosses scattered across the map for passive gameplay. Each boss drops rare, unique items.
• Rarity system: Rarity system here matters. There is no item level, items can drop common, rare, epic, legendary spontaneously. These rarity levels determine the number of attribute slots, which can be added by using upgrade crystals on items. Upgrade crystals are obtained from hard monsters

### Server Information

I have the pleasure of helping to develop this server and I can honestly recommend it to anyone who would like to play in their free time, fight with others or play a few mini-games

For those who value the old-school feeling even more, in addition to the extremely optimized OTClient, we have prepared the possibility of playing with the CipSoft client.

If kor has been a part of it then its worth trying.
I just personally dislike the built in HUD, sounds like a bad idea that suits newer clients more than 7.4/7.72. Hopefully you will be open to disabling/revamping it if enough people agree.
Either way I will give it a shot.

Here are teasers from our snowball event, and some custom map showoffs. While you explore the world of TibiaSucks, you'll find many current spawns have been improved.

We are running events multiple times a day. The winner of these events are awarded copper tokens, which can be spent at the in-client shop, to buy backpacks, and other useful items.

Basically a copy paste of servers that already exist, nothing "new" or "unique" here except for maybe a few items or bosses.

Honestly if you want to make oldschool Tibia "great again" you have to think outside the box and figure out what made Tibia great back then. This here, isn't close I'm afraid. Will die out in 3-5 months.

It's funny, every once in a while, I'll try a random server from otservlist, I only play retro servers, and there aren't many good options. I logged into a server a few weeks ago, and when I was killing rats, I constantly received pushback, errors in walking, attacking didn't work properly (not consistent). I feel like once you login and try the server, very quickly you'll see how refined it is. There are tons, tons, TONS of bugs present on almost every OT server which I have fixed. Gameplay is really smooth here.

For me personally, what made Tibia great was the idea of fun-paced gameplay, hunting with your friends, grinding for rare items, and fighting team wars. I believe we are on track to replicate those mechanics. I have invested a ton of time into considering this server from a RPG perspective, and a PVP perspective, and I have tried to mesh the two. Farming some bosses will provide strong PVP items to be used in war, whereas participating in PVP will unlock RPG benefits. For example, one event I have created is called the "War Tile" event, and when a player wins this event, the player and their guild (if they have one) gain access to a private hunting spawn for 1 hour. There are a ton of things to do, not just grind the same monsters over and over, and I am constantly adding more content.

I am just one person, with my own personal perspective and opinion about what made Tibia great, but if I do not at least start with the basics, how can I ever achieve that goal? Like every server, this is a work in progress, and I am always open to ideas.


Showing off another teaser, this is called the "Wave" event, where two teams will fight through waves of monsters and see which team can last the longest:

 

[webb]

yeah, tibia sucks ...

​

so, who won this pvp event?

 

[Dip Set]

Gregnyc. is his discord name, the pvp that day was insane, the 1 v 1s were nuts.
Honorable mention - Jere3 went 1 v 5 at one point in the open and was picking people off.

 

[Caudeus]

Do you have demonic and diabolical type monsters?

 

[Dip Set]

Do you have demonic and diabolical type monsters?

I have made a demonic variant system. The further the server progresses, the more variants will be unlocked. The first variant is hellfire variant, the second variant will be unlocked when the first team completes a major quest, and so on and so forth. The elemental variants are hellfire, toxic, ghastly, frozen, and energized. Depending on the variant element, they are given special spells, for example hellfire monsters can burn you, cast fire AOE spells, etc. Frozen monsters can paralyze you, use ice spells, so on.

Old school Tibia doesnt need to be great again becuase its great on its own. You claim for new features yet i'd bet you dont nor have try servers who actually made "out of the box" content. Old Tibia with a few custom things is just what we want and what we need, if it has bugs, client and such fixed welcome. The only breakpoin for any 7.4 is the bot measures. Otherwise im fine with "copy pastes" Tibia.

Why don't you simple go play Tibia pokemon or zesenia or medivia, which uses "out of the box" things and its still 7.4 mechanics instead of vomiting in otland publications.

Edit: funny thing the most copy paste comment in every otgala post is actually yours xD sell brain

 

[PanDavid]

I will check : )

Just so you know, the server name might be holding you back. I immedietly thought that this was a non-serious server by looking at the name

Hello,

And what’s the problem with another 7.4 server? I haven’t played it yet, but it seems to be well-developed by the team.
----

I found the client very heavy... Usually, servers are between 20-150MB.

When I went to download yours, it showed 900MB. Is that correct?

Yes, the reason for the large client is HD minimap weighs 200 mb, SD sprites have all 7.4 AND 13.X sprites. HD sprites weigh 700 mb, they are already heavily compressed, so with zip they don't get much smaller.

7.4 RL map isn't for everyone. For those who don't like RL map, I suggest Ranger's Arcani (https://rangersarcani.pl/) by Oskar, totally custom client, map, sprites etc, made by a great team, but it strays far away from Tibia. For those who miss the nostalgic 7.4 feel, but also want expanded content, there is TibiaSucks.

If you're looking for a hardcore server, I recommend Latest News - Dura (https://dura-online.com/)
TibiaSucks is not meant to compete with Tibiantis, Medivia, Dura, etc. Those servers have their own playerbase. TibiaSucks is meant to replicate the feeling of a fun summer day when you hunt with a group of friends, fight against that damn BR/PL/USA team that you've fought 10 times before, just FUN. The reason I named it TibiaSucks is because... Tibia does suck. I don't like the newest sprites, content, hunting styles, etc. For some people that might be entertaining, but personally I am not a fan. This is why I've committed years to creating what I consider the right path. What would happen if Cipsoft created retro servers, then developed them the right way? This is what I mean to achieve.

From my perspective as a player, I know what I miss, and what’s what I added to this server. Some people miss hours of rune making talking to friends, some people miss low level PKing, everyone is different. My goal is to find those golden nuggets and improve them.
