add a server where we can play old wynncraft pre gavel lock in

#

lock in

#

pre gavel wynncraft server

pliant vapor
#

being real we dont have the map in its original state anymore

Ocasionally we find offmap copies of parts of the game that are outdated but never entire regions

#

Even if we did this is fun for like an hour until you realise the game updated for a reason

rough lynx
#

i guaretnee a lot of people would go back to it for nostaglia reasons and rerun the game

#

because it was more fun to run through it back then with the old graphics and gfx

#

new updates are cool and all but it lowkey ruined the adventure aspect of wynn

pliant vapor
#

If you played old wynn you would remember it was NOT good 😭

Like, hot updates such as "Added a bridge to a river" and there being like 1 mob every 50 blocks

rough lynx
#

old wynn was good

pliant vapor
#

quests werent even in the game originally

rough lynx
#

it had its flaws

pliant vapor
#

It was very flawed

rough lynx
#

but im talkin about mainly right b4 gavel when TOA was hard asf

#

when looting was acutally like good ngl

#

too much vfx and spam in recent content updates

#

doesnt mean i dislike it just too heavily focused on animations and "Quality"

strange imp
#

yeah november 2015 wynn was pretty cool

even though yeah absolutely everything was worse than modern wynn in every way

rough lynx
#

trade market lwkey ruined the vibe for adventure cl

pliant vapor
#

I heard this argument for World of Warcraft plenty, you remember it being good because life was different back then

You remember not knowing how stuff worked and you werent hyper-optimizing your stuff, the "adventure" came from bad guides being your only source of info

rough lynx
#

nah it wasnt that

pliant vapor
#

I do not miss standing in detlas "WTS Adamantite 15eb" repeatedly

rough lynx
#

it felt rustic and actually like an adventure

rough lynx
pliant vapor
#

Rolls didnt exist

#

you got the item and you were done

#

and the meta was 4 common drops & a vendor item

rough lynx
#

im not saying the entirety was perfect 💀

strange imp
#

bmask adamantite crystal stalgmites 🔥

rough lynx
#

id rather go back to the rustic adventure type game then a heavy vfx animation for a lil while

#

just to run through it and get that feel back

pliant vapor
#

I give it like a month before someone just makes a resource pack to disable al lthevfx anyway

rough lynx
#

my point idk the reasons for all this heavy vfx when majority dont even want it 💀 💀

#

turning to mobile game ngl 💀

pliant vapor
#

sure man

and just look what people say idk if u can read

pliant vapor
#

40+ ppl 😨

wraith knot
#

40 is not a majority

rough lynx
pliant vapor
#

that is like...

#

almost an entire lobby... 😨

wraith knot
#

Crazy

rough lynx
#

do u not read discussions or chat? 💀

wraith knot
#

Have you heard of a loud minority

wraith knot

💀

outer quest
#

If we're gonna start wynncraft classic its gotta be from a 1.20 backup 🔥

pliant vapor
#

According to 100% of people surveyed Hubert is the best character

rough lynx
#

idk what backup 1.20 is

outer quest
rough lynx
pliant vapor
#

Idk how saying "I do not think wynn has a clean backup of 13 years ago" is pressed but ok

#

im outa here

rough lynx
#

just a perception you seem a lil hurt bud its okay continue high cortisol

solemn widget
#

jus play herobrine mansion

outer quest
#

commission grian to rebuild wynn 2015

ripe ether
#

pre gavel wynn was horrible

#

I aint even gonna sugar coat it

#

I am so damn glad we moved past swinging at vanilla zombies from a 3 block tall ledge as the main source of gameplay

#

and sitting in the objectively atrocious looking old detlas build

rough lynx
#

not saying it had a lot of content

#

or it should be updated just saying there should be a save slot on it so we can go back to it and speed run it have that nostalgic adventure rustic feel

#

im not saying this like it should gain maintained just that id be nice to be there

ripe ether
#

who would pay for this

rough lynx
#

who is saying pay

ripe ether
#

maintaining a server that reaches 0 concurrent players on peak hours because there's nothing to do

rough lynx
#

u can have an addition as a msall server section to this

#

not a whole seperate server

ripe ether
#

if you want to experience old wynn just play the god awful horribly outdated quests that are still in the modern game

rough lynx
#

and i promise they'll be people

wraith knot
#

There is no financial incentive to do this

ripe ether
#

playing through the sodeta mansion quest should hopefully remind you what old wynn felt like

ripe ether
rough lynx
ripe ether
#

I would certainly come back to a pre-gavel server but only for about a day

rough lynx
#

pre gavel server to run througj it and have that adventure rustic feel come back would be nice

ripe ether
#

the reality is that this is just not an economically viable decision for wynncraft to make

rough lynx
ripe ether
#

if you want to run a server yourself and the CT have the old world save file (somehow (I'm pretty sure the old save is gone))

ripe ether
polar coral
ripe ether
#

it's been pulling in enough money to actually hire people for fruma

rough lynx
#

with the website analytics its probaly close to 80

#

idk where ur getting these numbers from

#

but that still isnt the point

outer quest
#

Fruma pulling in 80k
Pre gavel pull in 80 cents

polar coral
#

none of us used numbers brochacho

polar coral
rough lynx
#

didnt wynn peak during gavel?

polar coral
#

no bro 💀

rough lynx
#

im p sure its still not peaking

ripe ether
#

crazy statement

velvet knot
#

who's gonna tell this guy about the fruma trailer player count

ripe ether
#

go take your meds grandpa

#

we're in 2026 now 💔

polar coral
ripe ether
#

2016 was 10 whole years ago

polar coral
#

mate this was about 2 weeks ago

wraith knot
#

Last peak before that was rekindled too not gavel

pliant vapor
#

"Majority of players hate it!"

#

The peak count in question

rough lynx
pliant vapor
#

yea that is totally what I said

#

you really got me

polar coral
rough lynx
#

did i say people hate fruma?

wraith knot
rough lynx
#

I never said its a bad update 💀 💀

polar coral
wraith knot
#

They look sick af

velvet knot
#

you're really trying to make it come off that way

polar coral
rough lynx
rough lynx
#

lmk when

#

^

velvet knot
#

like are we sure this isn't just nostalgia talking

rough lynx
#

that now is lessen

#

its literally just uploading a save file which ig they dont have

velvet knot
#

and dedicating an entire server to doing just that sounds like a complete waste of assets

rough lynx
rapid sapphire
rough lynx
#

theres takeways from eachother to gain from 💀

velvet knot
#

if a new player wanted to see what old wynn was like they can just search up old footage of it on like youtube

rapid sapphire
#

why would you even play it

rough lynx
velvet knot
#

would honestly be more entertaining than the person playing

rapid sapphire
#

dawg wynncraft already has problem running their own server i cant imagine them trying to boot something they dont even have anymore

rough lynx
pliant vapor
# rough lynx i mean it'd cost what an extra 40$?

dev time to get the server actually running not accounted for
whoever time to actually find the backup and make sure it works
build time to fix how easy it was to get offmap not accoutned for
server costs significantly underestimated (You can go find zeer's info on it if you care to)

aaand itll be cool for like an hour

rough lynx
#

im not saying its gonna gather thousands

polar coral
#

the time and energy and money it would cost to rebuild old wynn from scraps and footage thats nearly lost media would be a truly pointless endeavor

rapid sapphire
rough lynx
rapid sapphire
polar coral
#

it will cost hundreds if not thousands of dollars to rebuild this map cos i gurantee the volunteers arent working on ts

rough lynx
#

ig they dont

pliant vapor
#

despite the first message in the thread saying otherwise

polar coral
rapid sapphire
rough lynx

#

wynn classic enthusiasts even lower

polar coral
#

wynntale got a better chance

polar coral
rough lynx
#

im not saying i dont believe him what are u talkin about bro

#

go find more pics on stocism on google or something

tribal kraken
#

ngl even when I was younger I'm pretty sure I only played classic wynn for like a couple hours

rapid sapphire
#

yeah old wynn sucked

rapid sapphire
#

the only good part of old wynn was guild wars and thats not even that old

tribal kraken
#

only thing I really miss from there was missing out on veteran rank

polar coral
#

next thing u know there is gonna be a feedback thread asking for vip town back

tribal kraken
#

remember when assassin was rank locked 💀

shy lake
#

Bring nether back

tribal kraken
#

although the custom armor stuff in classic wynn was cool, but it kinda made mojang mad iirc so uh, yeah xP

#

we pretty much have a replacement through the armor cosmetics nowadays tho which I do prefer more

dreamy hound
rapid sapphire
tribal kraken
#

honestly that part probably wouldn't be half bad nowadays with the new systems but then it'd kinda be world events but again

dreamy hound
#

it did have one benefit, in that you could solo pretty much anything if you took your time
big shakeups >:D
i have no idea how eco worked back then tho

tribal kraken
#

iirc you used to be able to like choose your own types of enemies to put into a territory at like different levels(?) and I don't think you had to constantly supply it with stuff

#

it was kinda neat but I didn't get to mess around with it much myself

dreamy hound
#

yea the mobs thing is right for sure

random light
#

forget old wynncraft, wynncraft of like 3 years ago was vastly inferior to today

tribal kraken
#

can't argue with that ngl, we've gotten insane major updates like, back to back to back, it's wild

#

And then theres old school runescape

#

Outperforming the main game every day lol

#

The thing is those examples basically play as completely different games.

A wynncraft classic server would literally just be just a regular ass minecraft server back in its infacy

subtle hull
#

holy nostalgia merchant

deep dagger
#

i think theres merit to be had with a pre spellbound "classic" wynn but itd work more as a one time event for like some significant anniversary

hoary adder
#

I mean there isnt really a point in talking about if old wynn was good or bad this idea is just not possible as most of the legacy code and map is lost media lol

#

also as someone who got into wynn back in 2014 2015 I get the want to do it

#

but it has no end game at all

#

people say modern wynn has no end game

#

but there is ligit nothing in 2015 wynn to do after you do all the fetch quests and talk to npc quests

#

you can kill a boss mob that does 1 old multihit spell and thats it, there wasn't even really class building

#

If it was possible I think a legacy wynn server would be cool for like 1 server, but there is no way it would be like oldschool WOW or RS

split rose
#

do you have a source on this

dreamy hound
#

I bet a bunch would, but only for like an hour or so

#

Spending thousands on something that might only get used for 30 minutes seems like the worst trade deal ever

Add guns and hunted pvp to lootrunning

#

we are using AI to make our mobs like arc raiders like

#

new raid boss: giant robot spider that shoots rockets and spawns minions

#

lotta goop in that shit

the Giant Enemy Spider

hoary adder
#

what is this a big spider or something?

# pliant vapor It was *very* flawed

I really kinda just miss a few things about old wynn:
Mythics felt really special
Numbers weren‘t insanely inflated
Class building was much easier
Almost all content was technically soloable

#

The first one is just kind of a mythic drop rate thing and not necessarily a problem since mythics can be insanely cool to build around and so them being accessible is not inherently bad

#

more like a personal dislike

#

The numbers thing is also pretty subjective, do people like insanely big numbers? Good in that case. Do you feel something doing 500+k dps is absurd coming from pre 2.0? Bad in that case

#

The class building thing is just a consequence of how mana works and mana value post 2.0 and I don’t know how the hell you’d fix it or if it is even seen as negative by more people

#

And raids are not soloable by design

#

I suppose to sum it up, new Wynn is notably very different, definitely much better in almost all regards but I just don’t agree with many of the changes

#

I’d suggest something like path of exile’s ruthless mode that makes specific items much more rare and really forces you to work with what you’ve got, but it’d be insanely hard to implement in the scale of Wynn and just too niche

#

do you know the cost of server infrastructure bro

brave blaze
#

Bro does NOT remember why Wynn had a player count of 400 for a whole 2 years, until 1.17

#

Not even 😭

pliant vapor
#

Back when we had like 70 player worlds

brave blaze
#

Zentrela seemed to be the potential Wynn killer, for that time. Who knows what would’ve happened, if it kept going
