  1. Definitely option 2 this community never will gonna appreciatte the job than u did for theses years as dev, let them go with these clowns servers than they are taking "effort day by day then shut down after couple months" . Just keep the big effort on awak sir like you did since the first da , than where you take the responsability on VGN as dev.

  2. Option 2, and i'll state why: a) Classic content gets done and boring really fast. Once everyone is geared, it turns into a "log for TW/GvG and nope away" game. Nobody outside of these events will actually stay if they feel the game is dead. b) We are already a small community, splitting it between 2 servers is going to make an already small server look dead. To both Classic and Awaken. c) VGN cards can be used on both servers. Awaken economy will stop getting VGN injected (or at least get far less than we currently have) and prices will skyrocket, hurting anyone who tries to hop in Awaken. d) People who invested in Classic are going to forever get pissed due to how their time, effort (and sometimes money) was wasted. I'd never come back to Awaken if it was "re-launched" and i'm quite sure everyone here knows how it must feel.

  3. After consideration I've changed my stance to option 2. This community doesn't deserve a reset after all of the effort put in to be accomodating towards player's needs. For the past 3 years they have bounced server to server and gotten burned while continuing to talk poorly of especially VGN despite getting screwed over even harder everywhere else, most recently the game's original developers. Their need for there to be a reset to "catch up" when all resources to easily do so have been available and accessible since the end of 2021 shows their lack of initiative or actual understanding of the effort it would take to refurbish and relaunch a new Classic server. I'm not even going to get into the idea of compensation for players who were actually active during these times because its obvious to anyone that doing so would ruin these returning players' "fresh start." There is also the fact that who is to say that the players won't get upset over one little thing and leave again? I don't feel as though there is a source of trust, and as Awaken is successful already there remains no reason to bank on a community of people who always hop to the newest bugged out server beyond kindness and pity, neither which is deserved. TLDR; Just close it if you have to. People can play on XLegends if they want classic classes so badly. This server has been right here all along and wasn't ignored by staff, but ultimately the playerbase.

  4. Option 1: X-Legend fumbled the bag and a classic server is in high demand. I see some people telling the GM's and Devs to not give the people a good classic server and be in their feelings but money talks and no point in getting hungover on things that happened years ago. People want a good server now they're willing to dump money into it so why not give it following the advice of these people saying "don't give them a server cause they took you for granted" doesn't make sense business wise. People are happy playing on a high quality servers VGN always provides and VGN gets all the share of the EE pie. Mistakes were made on the previous iteration of classic and now it's been fixed. Mistakes were made by the community to go server hopping and shit on vendetta but that's all in the past. I believe this next iteration of classic with all of the changes Jordan made over they years will make it a server here to stay like awaken.

  5. Lets stop thinking that VGN was a good soul. People tried for months to make VGN understand that they need a better way to do stuff on the server, having easier fortifications, better economy and other QOL stuff. VNG refused to change their view on those topics until very late caps. Yes, they did change a lot and it was very good changes, but lets not forget that it was due after a majority of people had quit already, at a later cap, this was the biggest mistake from VGN, not understand what people were asking. VGN is the most professional and competent group working with EE ? Yes. But you can't blame people if they wanna having fun with servers that were offering more casual time than VGN, you could geared numbers of classes, try different stuff on pvp. Both Players and VGN had their faults for classic not working out, thats why a fresh start its need for both the relationship (player/staff) and the server. With a good management and the QOL stuff they are implement, the classic can be a good server.

  7. Hey everyone! I know some of you are eagerly awaiting an update on the situation for the EE Classic Server. Unfortunatly we have decided not to pursue this at the current time. We appreciate the good words in this discussion towards our server, but please know we did not take this decision lightly, especially with the status of the new official server. We feel its within our best interests to lay this project to rest for now and turn our attention to Eden Awakened. There is several reasons on why this was the decision but I think the main one being I just don't think a Classic server will ever be successful enough in the long-term. To this date we have saw countless servers open and close and they all end up with the same results, people play, people complete everything super fast then push for the next content quickly because (rightly so), people get bored. I think the only way to avoid the above situation is by following a similar path our Awaken server took which is once you reach the ideal point in time, you then pivot into new custom content based and balanced around the stage of the game that is most optimal for players. You could argue that taking notes from the Awaken server to slow down the progression of content to make it so people can't just complete there gear in a week for several classes at the same time is also an option. However, that being said this would be a huge time commitment for me and will probably have mixed opinions among the Classic community, which if history has taught us anything (not just talking about our server), mixed opinions cause huge divisions when new servers become available which the community is not just big enough to support. So to conclude, althought I never want to say never as of the current moment in time there is no desire from myself or anyone else on the team to pursuit this project as it stands. The server will remain open until May 11th, till about 12pm-1pm UTC when maintenance begins for Eden Awakened and Scarlet Blade. During this, Classic will come offline and stay offline. The Classic section of the forums will also close at this time. Accounts are network wide, and can be used to log into Scarlet Blade and Eden Eternal Awakened. They will not be deleted with this shut down. Any VGN, transfered AP or unused AP purchased since October 13th, 2022 on Eden Classic will be refunded back into VGN and can be used on Eden Eternal Awakened or Scarlet Blade. It will be returned at a 1 VGN:1.1 AP rate to account for the additional AP obtained when changing VGN into AP. We thank those that played and enjoyed Eden Eternal Classic, and perhaps in the future we can bring it back in a way that's exciting for all those that wish to try it! --- Hey everyone! We have reached a bit of a crossroad with our Classic server so we're bringing up the question to our community of what to do next. The Classic playerbase has been unstable a few months after its launch. Up until last year this was fine as there was still enough players actively playing the game. However, there has been a significant decline in active players which has resulted in updates being made to band-aid the problem of parties not having enough players to complete the content. With the next scheduled patch it is just not possible to band-aid the problem and it would require a lot of time from myself to make the necessary changes to make the content not only completable but also make the content worth completing (as the new gear is mostly focused around Awaken Classes). The staff at VGN have discussed in length of what we can do and what directions we can take with the Classic server and there is only really two options available. The First Option Reset the server to an earlier piece of content, clear the database and start from scratch. With this option, we would keep a lot of the changes that have been made over the last couple of years to the Classic server. Some of the main changes include but are not limited to: Halcyon Type Safety Stones on altar. Class Drops and Auto Loot. Shaman class rework. Vendetta Starter Equipment. Class Drop Class Medals in 0/2 and 0/10 Dungeons. Character Customization Upgrades. If this option is considered, we will be leaving suggestions open during it's development process prior to releasing. This will allow those who want to pose a suggestion prior to it's release to have that option and allow for feedback on previous/existing/future suggestions. For this option to be considered, we would require a significant amount of interest. If there is not enough interest in a remake of Eden Classic, then we cannot justify taking the development time away from Awakened to satisfy only a handful of people. If you truly are interested in this and would want to play a server like this, starting from the beginning for that classic feel, then please make that interest known. The Second Option Unfortunately, the only other option would be to close the server down. As mentioned before, its not fair on the Awakened server to split development time between the 2 when Classic only has 5-10 players active in it. We cannot say for certain if the idea of a Classic server would ever be revisited, but if this option is selected, the chances would be quite slim. We would like to hear your opinions and ideas on the matter and we are grateful for your continued support over the years.

  8. im new here so i dont know the lore about this server or vgn but if people want to give classic a chance then i dont see why we cant, even if it just ends up being closed in the end at least we tried right? i doubt im the only one who enjoyed the good old eden eternal before awakening became a thing. i put some faith into x legends, but its clear it was misplaced and the server has only been live for a few days... they managed to be worse than aeria so far in both pricing and management and i fear what the future of it would hold. i am fully willing to give vgn a chance, even if they do something that i dont agree with i would rather be here than be burnt out again in another cash grab rerelease official server

  11. Option 1. For months since the X-Legends announcement for the game, their staff had shown lingering signs of being unprofessional with the community. Even up until the launch, we were left in the shadows when it came to what exactly we were to expect from their server, and their launch date just confirms why they left us clueless. The game is basically just where FNO left off at in 2017 or so content wise, with a level cap of 40 slapped on it. Not including the fact that you can still access areas that should realistically be restricted. There was also several things that was/is broken on their server, of a game that's been around since 2010... And don't get me started on the Cash Shop. The conversion rates are absolutely horrid for anyone that wants to spend, and the Crystal Altar is just a scam. Battlemounts being purchasable, Astral Pathway being activated, Archive Bonus existing, and several other factors scream P2W, even for a spender. Also, their "emergency maintenance" did not address all the issues, and players who abused bugs were not banned. While the population is still high right now, I believe that it'll crash once the Steam release hit, as Steam players will be more critical, and more gaming journalists and YouTubers will thrash on the game even more. I've had mixed feelings for VGN for a long time now, due my own personal experiences, but I'm putting that aside because I frankly just want to play on an EE Classic server that won't die within months. I have made several friends waiting for the XL server, as well as playing with them currently. If VGN was to reopen, now would definitely be the time. Give X-Legends the finger, and show them how an actual server, made for the players, can prosper. You have our support. Jordan is the most skilled developer I've seen from any Eden Eternal private server, and quite frankly even the official server, lmao. I hope you consider, even though it might feel like a backstab to those who invested quite a bit into Classic v1. I would suggest possibly doing something special for the original players, or maybe letting them keep their cosmetics. It would help with player retention a bit. Please listen to your community, (not with every suggestion, but at least understand where we would be coming from with suggestions). Peace.

  12. I vote for the Option 1 for the following reasons : We're all aware of the X-LEGEND comeback in its own game industry but yet there is so much evidence to say that they don’t know their game as much as VGN. This has been proven by their work on the classic. • From what Jordan said, we already know that if it gets to happen, the classic server won't be as much exhausting than it used to be in the past. (Halcyons in altar is already insane) • Vendetta has earned its legitimacy in my opinion to make an EE server, by that I mean that they showed consistency and high knowledge in many domains, (Just look at the archive research feature lol) This could indeed cause a player dimunition on the Awaken's server but as far that I know, VGN Awaken has never or "barely" been as much active than the classic, atleast in PvP. (100 kills + on classic). so at the end of the day I see myself playing classic more than another server and I wouldn't be too much worried about "can i get people back to play classic"? as long that the game is not as much exhausting, the happiness that the game brings will spread and people will play again.

  13. Hi i know i'ven't played much classic, but time i played it was mostly dead, but with Jake and Matt help i had decent experience to say option 1 is best option. I'm still awaken player and i know what happened on awaken when classic came out, isn't about player amount is more about economy. Players that have huge amount of gold or items that can give good amount of gold usually sell everything they have or use extra gold to buy VGN cards by over price. (on awaken and used on classic) 10$ was 30-35k before classic opens, once it came out, for while we could see 10$ for 80k , after hard work of community we made this reduce to 55-60k , which still far from price we used to have, AP items are important , mostly pets for awaken and would be cool to make this unable to be abused again, doudou already told me that VGN can't control where VGN cards are used and how they are used. VGN already open doors by don't making rule of buying VGN card with gold which is amazing, but if classic come back again and this still issue, mostly of awaken players will prefer option 2, as we can see up there on this topic. Would like to know if VGN can do anything that can prevent awaken players of getting this again. but my last option is 1 , would like to see classic with actual changes from start.

  14. Option 2 Just close it. Focus on Awaken. If people rlly rlly want classic, well x-legend it will be then. 😐 If you keep Classic, it will just live for a while then it will die again. And it will stay like that until you realize once again and re-ask again what Solution would be best. Having a server up with just very few ppl, doesn't seem that worth it tbh.

  15. Option 2. Awaken was already hurting when Classic came out, and the release just divided the dwindling player base imo. Now, both are hurting. Focus into Awaken. If people want to take a trip down memory lane, play X-Legend.

  16. Option 2. Honestly, it doesn't really seem worthwhile to pursue a continuation of the classic server considering all it would accomplish is to temporarily appease the few that are interested in playing for nostalgia Sure, it might cause a spike in activity, but that's not a guarantee it will stay relevant and active. chances are, over several months it will end up in the exact same position once the hype has worn off. Awakened has the vast majority of players with the most people invested and interested in future updates. it doesn't seem worth it to put more resources into classic when those resources could be reallocated to the server most people play.
