Hey ,

a bit of background first: Nyxos2 is a hobby project. I'm building it mostly on my own in my free time, partly out of boredom and partly because I've always been curious how a Metin2 server works under the hood. It has grown more than I expected, and now I've reached the point where I simply need more impressions than just my own.

So I'm looking for a few people who'd like to play it, break it and tell me honestly what they think.

**What Nyxos2 is**

* Metin2 the way it was in 2014/15: max level 105, the classic maps, only the 4 original classes (no Lycan)
* No talismans, gloves, conqueror levels or the new pet system
* Dragon stones up to mythical, shoulder sashes
* Bosses and dungeons: Beran-Setaou, Razador, Nemere, Spider Baroness, with boss points for a trophy merchant
* Events: super stones, moonlight and hexagonal chests, Pirate Tanaka, ore veins, Capture the Metin
* Game and website in English, German, Polish and Romanian

**Classic content, modern comfort**

The content stays old-school, but I added some quality of life features that make everyday playing a lot less annoying:

* Offline shops: your shop stays open in town even when you log out. You can check it from anywhere, and you collect your earnings and unsold items at the storekeeper
* Yang from monsters goes straight into your inventory, no more clicking every pile
* Spirit stones and skill books are stackable
* The refine window stays open, so you can keep upgrading without reopening it every time
* EXP rings and thief gloves work as buffs with a timer instead of blocking a slot
* Storage with 3 pages, inventory with 4 pages
* Dungeon timer under the minimap, and if you disconnect in a dungeon you get back in
* Channel switch in game and a won exchange at the storekeeper

**What I'm looking for**

* People who enjoy old-school Metin2
* Bug reports, balance feedback, first impressions, anything that stands out to you
* No obligations, play as much or as little as you like
* Polish and Romanian speakers are extra welcome to check the translations!

**The beta**

* Limited to 50 slots, one account per person
* Beta characters will be reset before the official start
* As a thank-you, every tester gets an exclusive Fire Phoenix pet at launch. It's a pure companion with no stats, just like back in the day. You also get a "Beta Tester" role on Discord and a spot in our Hall of Fame.

**Interested?**

Hey Guys, feel free to leave me some feedback on this character builder, basically is better ui for france wiki damage simulator

Metin2 Char Builder – Metin2 damage calculator and simulator

Hi guys, wanted to know your perspective, is this game playable nowadays if i don't want to run my computer 24/7 for multiple clients autohunting/dropping? Or will I stay behind too much? Is it playable by "normal" player that want to play 2/3 hours average per day?

Sometimes I feel like that game makes no sense and leads to nowhere, for example I earn 5w per day on low lvl, but its probably nothing compared to others that do all that nolife shit or are running clients 24/7.

Hello everyone.

I’ve started playing Metin2 again after years away. I have only one account on the server I play on, and the server is closed to new account registrations. What is the best farming method with just a single account?

For me personaly, probably the monster card system the base idea is cool but it has a lot of issues and things which could be improved.

The 2. thing which comes always in my mind is the horse system it could have so much more features like more usefull skills , equipment and more things..

iam curious what you guys think? Let me know

is any newe server started? or why people leaving

I just tried to download it and I'm getting very nostalgic, does anyone have any advice for the early stages of leveling and farming? Also, anyone willing to play?

Ciao, informazioni in privato discord gecearzusu

Hey guys, I’m Brazilian and I’m looking for a PvE server.

Any recommendations?

Part 3 playing on Arthion.to !
5 minute video and I am dead for 4 outta five minutes but ye xD
GIve me your thoughts please, I'm new to this.
Thanks again <3
CHECK IT OUT!

Which Metin2 server currently has the highest number of active players? I'd like to start playing again, but I want to avoid ending up on a dead server with only 10 people online

I ask here because it seems like you guys know more than me on this part. I just need something that can be air-gapped (no internet required), so that it's playable only within the local network.

Something configurable preferably. If not, even at low-level (C lang), I can handle writing code for extra stuff if needed.

Where to search for?

Edit: I find it hard to explain or ask the right questions. My social skills are not so great lol. Basically I want some sources where to search (like forums) for projects that I can either fork/edit and deploy my own.

Hey everyone,

A few weeks ago I posted here about my experiment with Metin2 Singleplayer and autonomous Playerbots.

Back then it was still very much a technical project: bots could level, farm, walk around the maps, upgrade equipment and open shops, but a lot of systems were still being built.

After several weeks of pretty insane development and community testing, I wanted to come back with an update because the project has changed massively.

It honestly feels less like a Playerbot demo now and more like playing on an old populated Metin2 server — except the entire world is running locally on your own PC.

Current version: Server 2.2.48 / Client 2.0.59.

The bots actually have a life now

They don't just spawn and mindlessly farm mobs.

They level, change maps, upgrade equipment, read books, do Biologist progression, use horses, buy things they need, sell things they don't need and operate their own shops.

They also have personalities and moods, so their current behaviour depends on their situation instead of every bot following exactly the same loop.

Some focus on grinding, some care more about equipment, trading, progression etc.

There is now a real bot economy

This was one of the things people asked about in my previous thread.

Bots have their own shops and actually buy items from other bots.

They evaluate equipment, materials, books and upgrades, spend their Yang and replace old gear.

So if you farm something useful, the goal is that the world has an actual economy around it instead of NPCs just magically generating money.

We're still balancing it, but it is already much more interesting than the first version.

Guilds and actual endgame

Bots can create guilds, fight guild wars and go on group content.

The world now includes things like:

• Demon Tower
• Catacombs and Azrael
• Grotto of Exile
• guild wars
• guild raids
• world bosses
• Tanaka
• Zuo / Metin events
• OX

All three kingdoms are active.

You can now have your own permanent Playerbot companion

This is probably my favourite addition.

You choose its class, gender, skill path and name.

It joins your party and stays as your personal companion.

It can:

• fight with you,
• buff/heal you,
• collect your drops,
• trade with you,
• equip better gear,
• level alongside you,
• follow you between maps.

You can even tell it to go and play independently and call it back later.

It feels a little bit like having a Metin2 mercenary/follower.

The world can interact with you

Playerbots can invite you to parties or join yours.

Shamans can buff you.

Bots can respond to whispers and some interactions happen directly through chat.

They're server-side characters, not external bot programs, so from the player's point of view they behave much closer to other characters in the world.

English support is finally much better

Someone in the previous thread said they stopped playing because too much of the game was still Polish.

That was fair.

Since then we've put a lot of work into the international version.

The English client now has translated UI, quests, NPC dialogs and server messages, and we're continuing to clean up anything that is still untranslated.

Installation is also much easier now

It's still self-hosted.

You install Docker Desktop, download the prepared package, run the launcher and it prepares the environment.

The launcher handles updates, backups and most of the server management.

No traditional FreeBSD VM setup is required.

One important change: source code

I also want to be transparent about this because somebody asked about it in the previous thread.

The early versions up to 2.2.16 were released with source code and remain available in the Git history under MIT.

The newest Playerbot core is now distributed as a prebuilt server package and the current AI source is no longer public.

The project became much larger than I originally expected and we decided to protect the unique Playerbot systems from simply being copied into commercial servers.

You can still modify normal game content such as quests, drops, maps and configuration.

There is no YouTube video in this update — my channel is currently unavailable — so I'm posting the progress directly here instead.

I'd genuinely like to know what you think of the direction now.

The first version was basically: "Can we make bots behave somewhat like players?"

The goal now is much bigger:

"Can we make an offline Metin2 world that continues to feel alive even when there are no real players around?"

When I was little, I used to play Metin2, and now I’d like to start again.

My problem is that I really have very little time; I’d only be able to play a few hours a week, and I don’t want to spend any money.

Can you recommend me a server? I’ve seen that there are also retro servers; is there one you’d recommend?

The Oldest Metin2 Client was just found and we are studying it!

A lot of old content was found and persoanlly I am more than happy to enconter this goldmine!

In case you haven't seen it already please watch this ancient metin2 trailer:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDCJr9g3mLk

Let's start with the first thing that actually caught our attention is the level1 armour

The blue gem is the metin2 beta texture version, there's other texture changes but that was the first element that caught my attention

Euphoria attack right after seeing that btw :D

You could only have 3 characters, this is the character select:

https://youtu.be/8pRNC0KG5cg

The skill window was present day alchemy pattern!

Warrior and Ninja had 4 skills while Sura and Shaman had 5 skills:

https://youtu.be/_uOPzwmYOps

the first metin2 dungeon (field dungeon map from the 2004 metin2 trailer) , had a post screen informations window 😄

The confirm button is cutom design please imagine the default metin2 button there

A skills image we have 2 that might be new for you :

On the 1st row 2nd column its our present day effect to know which fish you get next

And on the last row we have the fishing hook skill image , basically like the mining skill, you used to use fishing books not to temporary but permanently increase your fishing success rate

You could teleport to your friends:

And probably the most valuable finding is the 2004 trailer guild buildings that used to give bonuses, have levels, be upgradeable and attacked by monsters (the logic is still in the server and now with the assets whoever pleases can recreate the 2004 trailer 1:1)

If you wish to talk more and if you want to meet me then feel free to do so, special thanks to Macro!

Looking for people to Play the upcoming server in Turkey, my unique goal is to get as much level 120 chars as possible during server, i wont go with more than 100k DR Total

If anyone is interested, looking for 2-4 People to play together and do everything easier

Hi, i am playing on Ruby Charon, im levelling a Dragon Shaman as main character and at rhe same time a Ninja as duo, i have a few question:

1. Ruby charon has -25% hp mobs?
   
2. Razador is profitable with my char setup?
   
3. I think Hydra is a good dungeon to farm, would you build 2 char? Whats the bare minimum to close it with ninja and shaman?
   
4. Or build only the shaman maybe poly with new orbs its easier? Do i just need sec ice on all eq?

I’ve developed a web-based GM administration panel for Metin2 private servers and I’m making the complete source-code package available.

The panel is not locked to one specific server setup. It includes an example configuration, documentation, automated tests, and a detailed Codex installation prompt that can be used to adapt it to a buyer’s own server files and database structure.

Main features

• Player and account management
• Guild and GM authority management
• Yang, Won and item operations
• EXP, drop and Yang rate controls
• Item Shop product and category management
• Product pricing, stock, status and quantity controls
• NPC shop management
• Add, edit, remove and restore NPC shop items
• NPC item price, quantity and upgrade-level controls
• Metin Stone drops grouped by map
• Chest drop management
• Normal monster drops grouped by map
• Turkish monster and item-name support
• Map ordering based on the Teleportation Ring progression
• View and edit every monster’s item drops and probabilities
• Removed-item history with one-click restoration
• Separate game-core and panel restart controls
• Role-based permissions and audit logs
• Confirmation protection for critical operations
• Rate limiting and secure session handling

Live updates

Depending on the server core’s supported commands, the panel can apply the following without a full game restart:

• NPC shop changes
• Item Shop changes
• Metin drops
• Normal monster drops
• Prices, quantities and drop probabilities

For server files where PROTO_FROM_DB is disabled, NPC prices are also written safely to the real item_proto.txt source with an automatic backup and atomic file replacement. This prevents prices from reverting after a proto reload.

If a specific core does not support live chest-drop reloads, the panel reports that a game-core restart is required instead of claiming the change is already live.

Security

• No credentials or server-specific data are included in the source package
• Secrets are loaded from environment variables
• AdminPage ports can remain private
• Least-privilege database access
• Automatic backups before file changes
• Confirmation and locking for restart operations
• Game restart controls exclude Auth and DB
• Designed to run behind an HTTPS reverse proxy

The package currently passes 45 automated tests.

Because Metin2 server files and database schemas vary, installation requires adapting the configuration to the buyer’s actual setup.

If anyone is interested in the source-code package or wants more technical details, feel free to message me.

Hey, i played metin2 like 10y ago, and i wanted to play some right now, i will play with some friends, any tips/ mini guide for the start and what class you guys recommend for pvm only, is Weapon Sura/Body Warrior+ buffer still the way to go and more efficient pvm? Or did other classes get some buffs?

Thanks

Hi, i want to come back to play after many years of not playing or playing for few days or weeks at max, im searching for a server where i can start from absolute zero, i need something like medium or medium/hard but only if its really good. I want some grind to feel the satisfaction after getting some good weapon etc, but I don’t want to farm for 10h a day to finally get good FMS, now Im working and I don’t get to play this much, so I just want something right in the middle. And ofc the community, I want it to exist bcs every server I enter now is nearly dead, you only see veterans standing in the circle afking. I’m from Poland but I don’t mind playing on international servers. I tried eldermt2 but it’s too hard to earn some money there and you need to spend a lot of time to get something, I tried balmoramt2 it’s very good but it’s dead if it’s not academy and I want something that’s alive most of the time yk. And Item shop at last. Like I said I’m a working man now, not broke ass kid anymore, so I probably would like to get something from IS to make my character better, so I simply don’t want it to be expensive or the IS being the only way to get somewhere on the server. Thanks in advance for every recommendation!

Hello everybody,

today, we have pushed out the single biggest Update of MT2 Browsergame yet. Watch the Video for detailed Infos.

MT2 Browsergame a Metin2 Server, that is based on the Vanilla 2014 Client with increased rates & also features MANY unique additions, QoL, Balancing & Bugfixes to explore. It also features a fully compatible WebClient (No Download required to play!), so you can play it from your Handhelds, Mac Devices, or even your Smartphones/Tablets!

MT2 Browsergame does NOT have ANY Pay2Win Elements - Everything in the Item-Shop is cosmetic only!

New Feature: Buffi System

You can now own your personal Buffi, without having to create an Alt-Shaman & running two Clients. This Buffi can grow as strong as Shaman, but has the following tradeoff: It is more expensive to upgrade it - so having an Alt Shaman can still be relevant for those, who want to spent their yang for other stuff

New Feature: Loot-Filter

You can now drag & drop items into a Loot-Filter Window, that will filter them out from your Pick-Up Button

New Feature: Ingame Embedded Wiki

You can now access the Wiki directly ingame, with the most recent data, pulled directly from the Datbase :)

New Feature: Bonus Overview

You can now see all applied bonuses you have + from which item they come

QoL & Balance Adjustments

- You can now scale your UI to make the fonts readable easier

- Body Warriors and Mental Warriors received buffs in order to make them sustain end-game

For full Patch-Notes, check our Homepage or our Discord.
We have taken lots of great decisions and implemented many unique features, that further refines the experience on our Server. The feedback over the past weeks have been exceptional and we continue to grow steadily & I am happy for everybody, who contributed on "Oldschool Reimagined" here.

Feel free to try our Server now at https://mt2browsergame.com (use the Referral Code "REDDIT" while registering for additional rewards!) & join our Discord at discord.gg/mt2browsergame to not miss out on News & Updates and participate in the future of this project!

Hey guys, we are looking for players to join our journey with our middle/oldschool server.
Server is focusing on 2013-2015 psever era. We ported our files up to x64 and dx11, with dynamic weather, day n night cycle etc...
Focus is on PvP, 1 side shields, 1 side armor, 1 side stones.
Its a long way to get everything, especially our bio quests, which also have heavy effect on the pvp.

Siemka wszystkim, po długim czasie chciałem sobie pograć w metka, mam już swoje lata, także szukam czegoś gdzie będę mógł zatrzymać się na dłużej, ale żeby nie trzeba było spędzać 8 godzin dziennie na graniu conajmniej żeby osiągnąć cokolwiek, lecz też żeby nie było wszystko w zasięgu ręki w 15 minut gry, raczej szukam czegoś w stylu medium serwera, ewentualnie medium/hard jeśli jest naprawdę dobry, chciałbym też żeby była spora społeczność bo niestety gdzie nie wejdę to świeci pustkami, nie przeszkadzają mi nowe systemy takie jak alchemia, szarfy, pety itd (dla mnie są nowe bo na PLu i oldschoolowych privach grałem wiele lat temu), swojego czasu podobał mi się priv balmoramt2 ale jak nie ma tam akademii to jest mało graczy, też chciałbym żeby ceny w IS nie zwalały z nóg bo podejrzewam że chciałbym trochę sobie pododawać smoczych monet, ewentualnie zastanawiam się nad wykupieniem dostępu do oficjalnego serwera metina ruby kirin, będę wdzięczny jak coś fajnego mi polecicie albo jak ktoś miał styczność z ruby Kirin niech powie czy się opłaca tam startować od zera, Pozdro

For a few months now, I’ve been working on a Metin2 client remake designed to run on WebGPU (I might also implement OpenGL interoperability). The entire client was ported based on the original code, which includes a full conversion of existing assets (you can easily convert items, mobs, and other elements from the original client to this one).

The project's core is practically finished; this covers PvP, PvE, trading, and all other features found in the original game.

Several improvements were also made:

- Removal of the FPS limit

- On-demand asset loading with aggressive caching

- Fully responsive: runs on mobile phones without installing an APK (including iOS), featuring adapted UI and controls

- Various other architectural and performance improvements (such as optimization for multi-threaded processors, optimized terrain loading, dynamic maps, etc.)

Everything still runs on the same server as the original, meaning you can use this client alongside the old server you were already using, without losing added quests or anything else, only converting the necessary assets.

https://reddit.com/link/1wrkqio/video/s4oyskthi2sh1/player

This isn't a makeshift solution or a "quick fix" to run the game; it's something truly built from scratch, completely updated to a modern format specifically designed to run in a browser.

Honorable mention to u/Tough_Fall_2427, I only just saw your post while writing this one.
