expected online?

[Quterma 8]

Hi all!

Ill be trite i think - but what online we wait here? Love classic but x1 is too hard for me. So, how many players could be here - does anybody know?

Welcome to Lineage II Classic!

The actual number is purely an estimation and my guess is 800 people. That can increase since we have 2 more weeks to go. It is up to us the players to help by spreading the news.

By the way the rates will be x3 so a bit easier than official.

​my estimation can be 1.5k-2k max and maybe , voting and doing other things on forums/websites can increase a bit more

[Sett 79]

There is no other alternative yet. If you want classic, you might as well try it here and see how it goes

[HapIo 72]

well if you look at the vote for server launch date, only ~300 people voted. yeah i know not every1 check forums, but to say 300 voted and 1.2-1.7k more players will join might be a little unrealistic.

i'd lower your expectations if i was you, so you're not disapointed. the more the merrier, but with the launch that never happened in august, it's normal that alot of people gave up. i know about ~100 players who were gonna play here, but with the august fiasco+innova news they probably wont bother here. so i guess we will have to wait and see.

[Quterma 8]

Of course ill try, but hope there will be more than 2k after 2-3 months at least

[NicolaasNL 40]

If there will be no major bugs after launch more and more players will come to test it. I d guess 1.200 but i cross my fingers for more.

It depends on how many players choose to buy dualboxes .

[Quterma 8]

Ill buy dualbox only after good online confirmation. btw, what will be it's price?

[Narmontas 34]

~300 first week. If anything will run smoothly then it might reach 500 (with dualboxes). If V2 comes out and will be bugless then 1000+ will play here 100 percent. 
Guess the main factor gonna stand , premium , in game balance , economy , exploitless game mechanics and ofc good anti-bot system.

[Trample 62]

i think u are being too pessimist, if theres ~500 ppl on forum daily i believe online will be a bit bigger that that, i would say close from 1k, and after even everything will go fine it wil prolly increase a bit, anyway lets face it, on classic 1k ppl is already rly good imo since theres few content, at least on 1.0.

​Dude, u r nuts?  300? 

Agreed with what Trample said. It was 600 y-day. Doubt its all the same ppl coming daily.

Every1 is still playing on other servers. Few days before start we will see way more ppl incoming.

​It will be announced about one week before server's launch.

You can have a dual box for free.

[Quterma 8]

You can have a dual box for free.

​What do u mean?

[riOrizOr 25]

iam not sure you yet for now i think at the launch we gonan have 800. In 2 weeks its a different story. Could easly be around 2k if the publicity is great.

[Banish3d 65]

​What do u mean?

​They didn't block IP for dual box, just a hardware restriction (1 game per computer), so if you have 2 or more PC in your house then you can play multiple account.

Or just launch game in a Virtual machine on the same PC (you need to have a good pc to do that).

​I see )) But I can buy PA for simple dualbox on one PC. Of course i can use my laptop too for second account for example. Maybe it would be more comfortable (2 fullscreen windows). 

BTW, ingame drop/spoil database is more interesting for me if it will be well made ofc. Will see, will see. Now the most important thing to be - online. All other features will have minor sence.

[Banish3d 65]

Didn't now that, i mean yeah during beta there are no restriction about dual box, but at release i always believed we could just play on one box and pay to use a second account at the same time.

nevermind, they changed idea i guess, said for months we would be able to have 1 dual box, but now gotta pay for it :))))))

[San0 2419]

dual box will be only for premium accounts and i do not remember saying to anyone it would be 1 dual box allowed. and i dont even think i have you on my skype son

[HapIo 72]

​Lol. when i did the lvling test i asked whoever is on the skype account if dual box was going to be allowed, and if yes, was it 1 max? i was told for now it was 1 max and NOTHING was said about ''only for PA'', and for months during beta admin said we would be allowed 1 box. You guys keep saying premium account will not be something affecting gameplay, but PA is the only way to get dual box? how is that NOT affecting gameplay? 

Should be 1 box for free / more with PA in my opinion.

​Hum. I just checked the conversation you had with our manager and saw this:

Well, it was indeed written in a bit weird way, but you could easily combine "not final version of shop" with 1 dual box and understand it's not gonna be for free.

[NicolaasNL 40]

I also don't understand why would someone pay for Premium Account to get a second box if they already have one. PA will be the main income for the project till they add more intriguing items rather than cosmetics, titles etc. I think that ll help the community bond rather than everyone playing alone with their free box.
