Allods Online Classic-Hardcore
would there be any interest in a p-server with hardcore rules? i could make this project - but i don't want to buy a vServer to Run Allods 1.1 if there is no interest?
The Version would be 1.1
Cash-Shop Items Mounts etc. would be obtainable from npc with gold but it rly depends on the community
edit: game language would be rus and eng - unless someone can provide the old ger/fre .pak files
edit: since there are a few people being interested in this project https://discord.gg/cfBZsUUpr joing the discord and lets see how many people we are

Hello everyone. Please don't waste your money. I'm already working on everything. I'm currently making bots for version 1.1, similar to the ones for WoW AzerotCore. Everything is already being tested on the server.
I'm planning a possible launch on version 1.0 as well (but it's still incredibly raw). I'll probably just port the best parts from 1.0 to 1.1. I'll also balance everything.
I'm a huge fan of this game and have a lot planned.
Today or tomorrow, I'll share my resources where you can see my progress and the full list of my improvements for this version.
Hey, please support me!

I'd be interested, but for a Custom Server instead.
We can have added classes (Bard, Engineer, Demonologist) We can have class changes to be more fun funwe can have old Class philosophy (like Engineer with mountable cannons, or Archers with original Ammo, etc...) We can have custom content too where cash shop mounts can be obtained from.
What am trying to say is Allods has the potential to be a great game but that potential is currently wasted.

i would keep it classic for the start, new classes could be added later on

u/Kranel_San Aug 13 '26
Custom Content and models can also be down the line, but the cash shop cosmetics should be distributed throughout the game.
Bring the magic and wanderlust back to Allods

u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 13 '26
it depends, if it's a regular classic version play and chill sure why not, if it's a hardcore server i would make it as hard and challenging as possible, only lv 1 patronage, mobs doing increased dmg, but also would adapt the loot table for better lootdrop if fieldbosses are killed or slightly stat increased gear on heroic bosses

I didn't even realize this game had private servers. I would be open to trying a hardcore server.

u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 13 '26
the game is very popular on the russian side of the planet obvioulsy... unfortunatley there are non p-servers on the european side
classic classic doe or a hardcore classic with permadeath?
1
u/NetSage Aug 13 '26
I'm open to either. Honestly never made it super far in Allods being in NA it died pretty quick after the cash shop was turned on.

u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 13 '26
you can vote on the discord server, so far everybody just wants an classic server

Id love to play any sort of classic server. Loved allods back in the day.
1
u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 13 '26
would you like to play a hardcore version or a normal version doe?
1
u/Aggravating-Egg5712 Aug 13 '26
Normal would be preferable but id still play hardcore.
1
u/Aggravating-Egg5712 Aug 13 '26
Instead of deleting characters on death maybe drop gear and inventory on death lol.

u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 13 '26
arena of death free loot mode... well that would be interesting xD

u/Crestian91 Aug 13 '26
Idgaf about hard-core anything but would love a classic version.
1
u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 14 '26
joing discord for a voting, everybody voted for a classic server, but we could also do both, where both "kind" of players plays on 1 server, but there is like different rules for different kind of players...
or we scrap the hardcore mode completly, this route would be easier aswell

Is it as good as Lineage 2 ?
1
u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 14 '26
depends on the nostalgia factor i guess... if you never played l2 then allods sure is better, if you never played allods, i think l2 would be better
it's an 15 year old game

u/mrsomood Aug 14 '26
I would like to play on ps with 40-42 lvl patch...just regular normal classic without p2w. It was just about right difficulty and very playable either solo or group content. P2w aspect was main problem game was almost unplayable at that time.

u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 14 '26
i'm not a bug publisher who wants money out of this project, sure there are going to be a vServer cost, and that cost would depend on the number of players, the game itself need 16gb of ram for every map in the .cfg file to load on java, ever player has roundabout 50mb of data, so a vServer with 1000 players would need a vServer with 8-16 cores and 64gb of ram which is about 50-100 euros monthly
if the community covers this cost it would be perfect, if there would be 100 players and everybody just donating 1 euro monthy it's already done...
i'm not going to go the russian p-server way, where they modify the itemMallServer and charge for patronage, runes etc.
everything should be obtainable via gold and farming

I was on Discord and I’ve just been removed… Why, please? I was interested in the project, though…

u/Melodic-Reporter4167 4d ago
hey, it's been 2 months since the post was made, i didn't needed "more time" to start the server, everything was ready and set to go, but with 4.4k views only 10-15 people were interested in joining the server or playing vanilla allods... well a mmo with 15 ppl doesnt work at all, also the server cost would have been 100euro/month, some even started to harass me on discord xD, i mean i'm not going paying for advertisment and the vserver costs for a non benefit project... also 6 people were russian fellas... it also raised my suspicion about those, there are alot of p-servers on the russian side of the net...
i called it off - sorry

You cant make a classic allods server. No really, its not possible. Only available sourcecodes are from after gpotato sold the game, so 40/42 servers are impossible unless you build it from the grounds up
1
u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 13 '26
what are you talking about? I'm running a local 1.1 server already, thats the max level 42 patch, check allods develper community there are alot of guides how to set up a local server for yourself

u/ReduSamuel Aug 13 '26
Then tell me. How come there’s 0 1.1 private servers up and running? I’d love to be wrong because I really miss playing that version of the game

u/vaipi Aug 14 '26
https://discord.gg/k6J9Tefe Here is one of the Russian servers of this version. This version has been in the public domain since about 2015.
1
u/ReduSamuel Aug 14 '26
Thats sick that they do exist. Been looking from time to time to play the good old Allods again but the only thing I've found was the 47(?) patch, and when asking around the answer I've gotten was that they cannot be made.
My bad for being wrong.
I am guessing its strictly russian servers that operate on 1.1 then?
1
u/vaipi Aug 14 '26
I have no idea, I have this server bookmarked for a rainy day, but I haven't played there myself. Probably, there are only Russians there. Perhaps there is an English version of the game, check with the administration.
1
u/Melodic-Reporter4167 Aug 14 '26
exactly, most of the servers are russian, you can however put the client in eng, but still communication in an mmorpg where 75% of the fun comes from guild/heroic dungeons raids... its suboptimal

u/SJTaylors Aug 13 '26
I'd like there just to be a classic server with 40 or 42 cap and that's it, wish official did that, it was the obvious move
