I liked it, the visual identity is awesome. I would say that huge number of towns suck hard, it suck for real tibia, much more to custom maps, gives an empty feeling. Back in the days when Tibia had lower number of cities and more players, you would meet people every time, it was priceless.

I fucking love servers like this, wish you the best of luck. When it's released I'll play a little for sure

 

[Eliazz]

Is there anything custom at all? Items/spells/mysteries etc? Either way it looks amazing, definitely will try it.

Sadly it doesn't seem very custom aside from the map, NPCs and quests. "What does not change: monsters (few changes in loot), spells, runes, sprites, pvp system, 4 vocations, and weapons."
Not my bowl of soup but good luck.

I feel like people are wasting too much time trying to create an rpg ot with normal vocations, monsters and items. For me it would get boring really quick to hunt the same monsters and loot the same items over and over. Imo a custom map rpg server without further customization will always go down pretty fast because most of the rpg players will get bored, and those not really into rpg will be confused and rather play on a rl map. Anyway good luck with your project and maybe ill check it out if i got the time.

@Peonso
Thats why you need to increase amount of players!
@Elwyn
Thanks! I will try to inform everyone about tests/release.
@Eliazz
New: npcs, map, lot of bossess and quests (mysteries, chest quests, tasks, story quests etc).
@Zasranets
Thank you!
@Shiros
You say that hunting same monsters is boring? Thousands of players are hunting them on RL maps. I just want to build a new server with all features/items/sprites/monsters from RL Tibia. In many servers they are unused and people starts to making new graphics, 20 vocations, 100 systems like minning, cutting wood, alchemy etc. Maybe if I finish everything I will add completely new spells/items etc. But firstly, use all what Tibia has.

About the RPG, you dont have to follow the main story line but ofc it will help you to understand the world and its like tutorial, which introduce you to new terrains.

I voted no. If you look back every finished project that mimicked vanilla Tibia, using a beautiful custom map with lore and quests, have failed. Players hate to feel like they are stuck behind high levels on the server, and with such slow progression and no interesting content (Tibia-esq quests and a Tibia-style map don't have depth) players leave. The truth is the vast majority of the player-base hates to feel confused. Custom maps do that, and without a new style of game play players quickly get bored. Tibia has some pretty flawed game play, this is why the game is a giant bot-fest today. It's ultra boring at it's native exp, who wants to run around for hundreds of hours in a Rot Worm Cave?

TFS presents us with powerful tools, especially how diverse we can make game play with the scripting interface. It's really amazing how simple it is to change big things, they've really made the engine great. I hope to see projects now utilize this instead of cloning the Tibia environment.

Your map looks great and exciting!

@BloodGauntlet
I havent seen any good "low rate/rpg" server based only on Tibian sprites/systems. Only total customs that failed few weeks later. About "powerful tools and great engine". I'm not a scripter nor a coder, so my possibilities are limited to help from friends or other users from otland. I'm trying my best but I can't do whatever I want.


Second city on mainland is growing. You can see how big it will be. Now, a question to you guys:
How should training system look like?

1. Only monsters and other players
2. Training offline (pacc) + monsters/players
3. Training monks (facc) + training offline (pacc) + monsters/players
4. Training monks available after quest (facc) + monsters/players

oldschool training system is best (monsters & players)

I prefer offline training + monster/players

Namnes (part of the Mia's Kingdom) is done!

 

[TomBartezz]

Why not be different and make hybrid vocations? Like a knight/sorc or pally/knight ext and make the characters have different spells

 

[Marcelo Druida]

will this be online?

 

[Kuzyn]

[Marcelo Druida]

[Andréew]
