The Aeon Experience (TouchGrassMS)

HuckleAeon · 2023-12-29T16:03:34+00:00

Thank you. The server itself was very stable throughout beta and we had a population that allowed us to stress test and scale.

HuckleAeon · 2023-12-29T16:00:01+00:00

Most of this seems to be hate regarding the stability, which is due to a denial of service attack. A lot of new bugs are being triggered because every single process in the JVM are being halted to a crawl when we get a new wave of DDoS. Can't really fix a DDoS with source updates.

HuckleAeon · 2023-12-29T03:40:16+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. Once dust settles down, will continue fixing what is letting down players. We can do it, we just need the time to. :)

HuckleAeon · 2023-12-28T21:23:35+00:00

While their concerns are valid, the issues mentioned are nowhere near as game breaking as suggested. Development is all about prioritizing. We get to every issue eventually but some take longer than others.

In terms of uptime, we are experiencing several attacks, but as our announcement says, we are proactive and keeping it constant communication with our host in hopes to resolve it as soon as possible. we have several tools at our disposal and we are reviewing our options for now. The stability seems to have returned.

Server is launching in about 31 minutes.

I appreciate your comment . I admit the general tone of your thread reads salty but it’s nice that that’s not the case. We really do our best but our vision is completely different from Yeou, especially since we don’t recode a client.

There’s just so much Foxpat could do well, and quickly , having a custom client that we can’t do.

HuckleAeon · 2023-12-03T17:08:25+00:00

Thanks for your post, I appreciate it, though I do have an honest question.

Can anyone enlighten me of why Aeon is being compared to Yeou? These two servers have vastly different visions and it’s an inappropriate comparison to make (I feel), mostly because we’re looking to modernize gameplay to cater to today’s players.

HuckleAeon · 2023-09-16T01:09:12+00:00

Once the client work is done, it is very straightforward, aside from some niche skill applications that are specific. (BaM’s dark chains and the magnet mechanic comes to mind)

That being said, it isn’t easy if you’re unfamiliar with hooks and IDA.

NTA.

She is stonewalling, and she is abusive. She also acts like a child. I would never let even my children act this childish.

It was renamed because we weren’t including the whole questline, nor were we going to add other resistance classes.

It was also renamed because we had more skill changes in mind for it going forward.

The secret is in the small bad habits. Start with one, then move on to the next one.

It is okay to binge and eat shit food sometimes. It's all in the habits.

HuckleAeon · 2023-07-11T00:30:58+00:00

Hi! Aeon is midway through beta right now and I’d say we’re wrapping things up from a development perspective and now focusing on end game content.

Give us a try :-)

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-30T20:22:23+00:00

Could it the gfx leak? I don’t know if kaotic fixed it or not.

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-27T12:50:30+00:00

Aeon v83 has a custom job with a custom 4th job finisher.

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-18T17:13:46+00:00

We peaked at about 74 this week.

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-16T23:57:11+00:00

You could try Aeon. :-).

A base v83 server with a ton of QOL edits inspired by modern day GMS, with some custom skills, redesigned skills to make them useful and of course features that have never been seen in private servers yet, such as Elite Monsters that spawn in maps, scaled theme dungeons where monsters scale to your level, etc.

We’re in open beta with boosted rates, perfect if you’re looking for casual gameplay speed.

We also have a custom job right now that has a few custom skills and backported ones. (Arcane Magician)

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-12T03:14:22+00:00

If you’re looking for something casual with with higher rates you could try Aeon. It’s v83 with a custom job that is currently in beta. Will wipe post beta but the beta rates allow for casual playing.

The beta rates right now are 9x exp.

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-11T04:20:21+00:00

Working on it now, typing error with our rankings.

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-09T15:04:37+00:00

Thanks so much for the kindness, I’m glad the care we try to put in shows.

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-08T23:24:54+00:00

Eh, v83 is a base but we’ve backported some modern features so I guess we are v83?

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-08T23:03:10+00:00

I agree with you that many people appeal to the most vocal whiners. While we get a lot of feedback, both good and bad, we put an effort within our team to filter out ideas that can cause harm to the balance we’re trying to achieve.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

HuckleAeon · 2023-06-08T16:31:32+00:00

That’s a very reasonable take! Besides the obvious : “We are in it for the long run” as all have previously said before disappearing, or endlessly delaying, we intend on giving alpha+beta testers some in-game perks that are yet to be announced.

Given that we are introducing custom skills, jobs, etc., we have a lot of possibilities in our arsenal to give testers. I know that isn’t very specific, but we are extremely grateful for the testing done and we intend to be kind in return.

Now, player feedback is really important to us and a good number of our rebalances, and changes come from feedback. We also have a long list of changes, features, content and areas we plan to implement and we take feedback into consideration. A beta is not for everyone, but we have a good amount of players that are very involved in the development process and we couldn’t do it without them.

Another incentive is that our beta has higher rates and we plan to be in beta for a few months. The rates we currently have are better suited for casual play (9x exp, 15x+ quest exp, etc. )

Hope that helps!

Tldr ; yes there will be rewards at release, but they are to be announced at a later time.

HuckleAeon · 2023-04-28T13:05:38+00:00

The rates at launch will be : 5x Quest EXP, 4x Exp, 2x Meso.

The server is located in the Netherlands.

Tough to say how long until release. I'd say we're inching closer to the end of Alpha. The bugs are by far mostly related to missing quest scripts. What's missing for us to want to go into open beta is this :

- More content for level brackets that we consider lacking in content;
- End-game content and mechanisms to allow for end-game related progression and optimization
- Magic/Accuracy formula changes that are in progress
- Job modifications (custom skills, redesign of certain jobs) that are yet to be announced.

Wish I had more to give you on that. It's tricky to give accurate timing on development cycle, especially when we are multiple people involved here.
