Hello everyone I'm just curious about knowing why many player is playing servers like what is on site [I don't mean brazilian servers] or whatever I used to host old evo-8.6 map but I want to come back and know more what is new about publishing servers.


And also If I wanted to open a server same as them what is the needed things to start with[Im kinda delusional with the tfs 0.4 servers i want to change my mind and see what tibia players like now]
 
I like Evo Ots with simple system and good pvp.
Im not a big fan of those new modules at all to be honest :D

The biggest no go for me to join a server is: BOT
Aslong you got bot I would never join the server
Doesn't matter which version :D
 
I don't know what to tell you, I don't have a very clear opinion, but here it is

Taking a quick look at otservlist.org, I only see that people are interested in Baiak or Map Global, there is nothing else.

Hello :) Im at the same plan as u! i used to host a server long time ago 7.6, (I was number 1 on list of Swedish servers xD) like 5-700 players online, (hosted it on my personal computer xD real amateur) but it was alot of easier back in the days. Now i have a "newly" started server wich is under development and improvements" Latest News - Tibia Nostalgic Combined (https://tibiarealm.se/) (Combined with oldschool play and new layout) bot free and (bot client otcv8) and original 1340. If people play with 1340 they will gain more exp and more features.. but not many players on. 5-10 players, Idk how to make it more attractive, I want atleast 40-60players on ^^.

You have the same mindset as me man but other people wont match our minds you see how many people like to join fully bot servers etc... and others who like real map.

People will aslong the server is fun and not always the same
Playing OTS like evolunia or other rl map gives you the feeling you play on a dead server
People Afk botting, moving around with 4 mcs and all that shit
Just do what you like and you will see the player base will grow up!
 
Imo the problem is that 95% of people are not joining new servers because.. there are not many players on them so they assume that the servers are 'dead' and not worth to play on (like big playerbases always spawns from nothing..). Idk why majority of them will not join and try instead of complaining that servers are not crowded. They never want to be the ones who rise the numbers from scratch but only join after others are already in. But then they complain that poeple are lvled up and its not worth to play on.
I definitely suggest not to use cheats like allowing X MCs or spoofing. It is discouraging for normal players that create your healthy community.

The only good way is to make proper advertise before launch (I'd suggest forums, fb groups, streamer(s) - but this one may cost a lot; avoid other popular servers that are starting at similar date) after good test phase (beta tests are also some kind of advertisement) so then at start you got highest numbers. However in this case a lot of starts are hard because of bugs/crashes/ddoses etc. But if you already hosted popular server, you may already know it.

edit: I forgot to mention that it would be good to make something unique that may differ your server from dozens of similar ones. Otherwise it may become boring after short while or seem too unattractive.

for every time u login another ots u have to download another custom client; ofc ppl won't login many

why not open again ots with official client + ip changer ^^

just think if there wasn't ip changer back in the days ... maybe otland would have been dead before started

I don't think downloading client is the problem tbh
 
i can only speak for myself. when in doubt, having to download yet another client for it, im inclined not to

and the opposite is true. if i only need to change the ip to try a server, i tend to do so

nowadays peoples seek for:
7.4 - closer to original with a minimum new features (if like global tibia features its better than custom non-sense modules
8.6 - full bot, elfboot crit/dodge/pvp
13.40 (or newer) full global low to mid rate

7.4 high ranked custom servers like nostalrius, realera, mastercore and bla bla bla are only 15-30 days long, peoples join them already knowing those facts
 
I said it plenty of times the otserver list should be OTClient built in with automatic client download this would make the user experience seamless the problem people are pointing about big player base it is not.

The accessibility is the problem every single one of you think that downloading client is easy but statistically average computer user struggles to unzip !
The problem is in inaccessibility and lack of support from the major developers.

if there was otserv list in otclient the first person to take the job and create masterserver will be making biggest money on this forum yet everyone is lazy to make the first significant step in bringing the OpentibiaCommunity together.
look at how hard it is for people to figure out how to set up SQL server and you will have your answer to what average player (because most newbie ot hosters are still hugging into XML walls)
