I actually don't mind paying to play. $10/mo is basically nothing if you get enjoyment from it. I mind the game having a cash shop in addition to a sub. Whether that should annoy me is probably questionable but it does. Had been planning on retrying p2002 since they went to titanium client...

Blah, was going to play this. Probably won't play the daybreak server.

Titanium client? I may have to jump in. The terrible eqmac client was very annoying for me.

Was thinking they probably wouldn't immediately wipe the server when MM was beaten but the people who did it first would get some reward. Then maybe a lesser reward for anyone who accomplishes it in the time the server is up. If that turns out to be wrong then yea, pointless.

Kinda interested since it is an era I didn't play on live. Only ever did Anguish when it was pretty trivial at lvl 75. Still seems like too much grinding for a will be wiped experience.

You should DL the UF client. You are gimping yourself using the P99 client.

From what I understand the pre-nerf drops are VERY rare. Something like 1% drop rate. The vast majority of the time you will get the nerfed or replaced item on the loot table.

Server was pretty damn relaxed when I was there. Casual cursing isn't going to get you a temp ban. High grade asshattery probably will but I never experienced any of that while I was there.

This pretty much sums up my experience of the server. If you want a low pop place to mess around and enough people that you don't feel completely alone thanks to global OOC, it works.

Played here a little over the last couple days. Pretty good server if you want something not crowded, no boxing, and velious era. They still have a lot of work ahead of them as far as being era correct. Also, the zems set are nowhere near classic so not sure what they plan to do there. Enjoying...

Downloading it now to give it a try. Managed to resist the urge to spend $100+ on it around a year ago thankfully.

lol at the idea of needing to load balance kedge keep

They used to offer premium MQ2 compiles. I assume they still do since the website still exists. Also, does ISboxer solve the issues with auto follow in eq? At one point I had MQ2 installed solely for /stick because auto follow was terrible.

Are MMObugs and redguides the only people offering premium MQ2 compiles at this point? I know in the days of ghostkill you had some people offering it with restrictions and some not. It would seem like someone would take advantage of MMObugs not offering warp on the new servers and offer a...

Any suggestion on where to buy Krono? Thinking about doing a box team for a month, maybe two, but I don't want to pay $15/per account. Unless they shorten the time classic only is active I am sure my attention span won't hold for more than 2 months.

Does anyone ever get banned on EQ at this point if you don't warp or use piggyzone? I know they cracked down on that but was under the impression they just didn't care otherwise.

These people that want 6 months of Classic are crazy.

You need a spot to go between Lfay sisters and OOT sisters. I would think oasis crocs and/or orcs would work well. EK is also a good outdoor destination for high teens, low 20s IIRC. Think I started OOT sisters at 24 but I was solo.

FFXI has always been one of the better group PVE MMOs if you can deal with the terrible UI. Not sure I would start a new character at this point though. Can't think of any modern MMO that is group PVE centric.

Tempted to crank up my 40ish enchanter again. Stopped playing for like a week and came back to no guild so I said fuck it.

It doesn't get much easier than download and open the game for an install. This is actually more simple than setting up for p99. I was having issues finding the client till Abacab helped me out (prior to this thread). As mentioned most of the population will be because of his help getting a...

My experience of live was that what you are describing would have resulted in a confrontation of who can outdamage who. If I was sitting waiting for lguk frenzy to open up and random guy shows up 2 minutes before the guy camping it leaves he better be able to outdamage me. GMs wouldn't have...

The video was better than I figured it would be. Asset store needs better spell effects.

If you want the best pixels Holocaust is the place to be atm. I keep meaning to login and play but don't. That process gets repeated pretty much every day.

This might have about the same playability as the higher lvl areas of VG within a few weeks of launch if we are lucky. Wait, why doesn't this mob have a model? These placeholder models are awesome. Why am I drowning? Why does every mob in this area drop rare loot? Hey, this mob respawns instantly!

If by some miracle it releases and has an EQ feel to it I would be willing to give it a shot even with it looking like ass. It won't happen though. Let's say Brad's unpaid labor ends up creating a releasable product. Nobody will buy it at a normal box price ($50ish). Most people wouldn't pay a...

Why would you even want to do that? You would immediately end up with a very top heavy server if we are talking about importing lvls/aa/gear.

New kickstarter with much more modest goals.Shards Online: Play by your rules by Citadel Studios Kickstarter Not sure I am going to back them this time around since the early bird $30 is gone.

Is there an easy way to set this up along side my EQ titanium install for P1999? I tried installing it again then applying the redguides patch but it just wants to modify my existing install.

PM me if you roll a red char. I might reinstall.

Experience talking here.

From what I am reading neither of the servers are going with IP restrictions. That kinda sucks. It almost seems like boxing is required on any EMU that isn't P1999.

If SOE ever decides to pursue any kind of classic server you can bet on P1999 and the emu community in general getting some C&D letters. Not saying a SOE sponsored classic server would necessarily work but P1999s player base really shouldn't be a concern since they are easily shut down.

Shame they don't have any options for time based skill progression. I do like what I see though. Will probably back it Just because the KS is well done and I like the direction.

Wildstar tutorial isn't shit because it takes a long time. It's shit because it is the wrong kind of boring. Would rather run around velks soloing random spiders while inching my way through a double hell lvl without question.

I am not sure I understand the whole landrush concept. Shouldn't they be fighting over the right to spots rather than having it just given to them?

You posted in the EVE thread without quoting anything specific and said "The fact that they decided to axe WoD and continue to pour money into this money pit speaks volumes for the management at CCP.". Anyone that read that rightfully assumed you were talking about .......EVE, not Dust. EVE is a...

Why all the Emulated EQ servers if EQ is free to play? For the old school experience or a completely different experience. Something that isn't offered by SOE at any price point. At this point old school can mean anything from Classic to pre-SoF generic gear in my book. Have you ever...

Really don't get why they cancelled this one. I thought it would be CCPs next big thing. EVE still prints cash but it seems they should be looking at doing a new MMO. EVE is a great game. One of the few I have over a year of sub time on. That said, it can't just keep growing. The space thing...

They really need to do something about this. I read that going in and the starting lvls STILL killed the game for me during the beta weekend I played. This is from someone who buys/plays a lot of MMOs of questionable quality. If they have problems hooking me....they have problems.
