MuOnline [13+]

do we need to pay for playing lineage2?? REPLY PLEASE.. and thx

i played a hundreds of muonline servers and never,never payed for that..

only on official servers. private server must be free of charge.

they are free because it is a cracked version of the game(btw it is illegal to run a private server).
the advantage is you don't need to pay and you level quickly so u don't need to stuck in the game too much and spend time doing the same.
the disadvantages are lots of lag(on most of the servers), the game is messed up with - it doesn't look\feel like the original game because it has been modified and reprogrammed. and the most dissapointing part that ruins the whole concept of a mmorpg game is people, on a private server there are a few people or a lot of lag. the more people on the server the more interesting the game can get.

if you reffer to MU Online, then I don't know anything about WebZen policy regarding private servers.
If we talk about lineage 2..NC Soft intentionally distributed version L2 Java that is free license and can be modified and run without any consequences. Of course this version of server is much much more harder to run, because it's not compiled at all. Here come L2 Devs that help us code and voila: we get private server. About myths: private servers have many players (you just need to find good server), private servers dont have to be lagged (its not so common when you look at it closer), and last: private servers ARE NOT ALLOWING using bots, what officials do.
XP? its your choice..official 1x servers are for real hardcore players. Those who seek just for a little entertaiment every day (and not for sitting there 24/7) will get bored on official..rates are just too low.
Money. Personally I can't afford playing official.
that's all folks

its too bad but its worth to pay for play=)
