A Private Server Exists

[VerdantCross]

It's sad that this game had to be closed. It definitely needed improvements if it wanted to keep a playerbase. But if you look it up you'll find a private server for the game. It has multiplied exp for basically everything.

I don't want to get in trouble by directly posting the link, but I'll post a link to their discord instead. https://discord.gg/rug2yGq it has a channel with links to it.

For some reason my antivirus freaked out over it, so I had to shut it up while downloading the installer, but it definitely is an actual server (It's up to you if you want to trust it or not though), I spoke to people in the game, and saw people talking in the trade chat.

But antivirus programs just seem to not like private servers for some games.

Oh also I had to fix the DPI, by right clicking the launcher, going to properties>compatibility>change high dpi settings>high DPI scaling overide, clicking the checkbox, and leaving it as application controlled.

You may have to close the game and edit the resolution in client.ini in the folder the game's installed in when the beginning cutscene happens, because for some reason the game set the resolution to 0x0 when it got to that point the first time.

The game also doesn't have the English voices for the menus or anything else if you used them (though the option is still there, with placeholder text, clicking it just uses the Japanese voices).

The Discord link is actually perfect... thank you!
Hopefully they're recruiting some modders to help fix things. Like Dark Eden, this has a lot of potential for success with private servers.

Private Servers are illegal, don't play them.

Wow you must be fun at parties.

Shaun: They are a grey area and with the game shut down, there's no real option to play this game outside of private servers.

Wish we had a private server. To the person who said they are illegal. Wait till Gamigo shuts down your game and see if you say that then. We are screwed over here at Defiance and Defiance 2050. Also awesome for you guys you still get to play. 👍

I think he's saying he wishes the Defiance games had a private server.
