Raid Changes

[Lostprophets]

People keep discussing removing the variance...there's almost a post about this like every other week (I was actually looking for the other one to post this in rather than posting a whole new thread..but I couldn't find it). To be frank, I'm kinda sick of seeing them being posted if nothing is going to happen with them rather than people saying "we need it, it's classic".

I'm not entirely sure how to do it as i'm not a coder, but I occasionally play on EZServer, and this is where the idea kinda popped in my head..

My suggestion is that, (using EZServer for an example) They have a 6:00am Reboot every day. On P99 is it possible we just have a random reboot once a week (basically implementing a classic patch day)?

By this, I mean we would implement a script to work with the current variance system (to an extent) but just have a 10 minute notice and shut the server down for like a 10-20 minutes or so during peak times, reboot automatically then have a hard repop (Dragons/gods spawned) once a week rather than having these really long windows for people to track all hours of the day, every day....then keep like Maestro/Draco(etc) on their original 3 day timers or whatever. (which would reset with the simulated "patch day" as they do now once killed)


I'm not adding a poll, its just something to toss out there to the P99 staff to emulate classic a bit more...something to toss into the suggestion box...though unsure where that would be, so server chat will have to work. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
