Wait, why?

Won't PS4 support keyboard+mouse? Isn't PS4 pretty much a PC hardware wise anyway?
Developers don't make games for consoles so that you can use a keyboard and mouse. If they are going to make it work on the console, they're going to go the whole way.

I'm thinking closer to EQ overall. As in the classes/utility and more of a group game similar to EQ. It's really hard to predict difficulty? Would it even make sense if I said not as punishing as EQ but more punishing than Vanilla WoW? I hope so and I also hope the WoW players who never tried EQ enjoy it.
This is where F2P becomes a real double-edged sword. A lot of people will try it out because it's free, but they also have no investment in the game. It's a lot easier to give up on a game because it's too hard if you didn't pay anything for it. I think the F2P thing forces SOE to make the game not very difficult.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa???????? THEY HAVE NO EYES!!!!!!


Edit: I should also point out I was really referring to the logo. I immediately thought of the new teenage mutant ninja turtle logo when I saw the EQN logo... I should be ashamed really.

Deal with it? idk. who cares. Judge the game by its content and how it plays rather than the current trend of faggotry.
Leo was bad-ass, rest of the homo turtles should have been murdered in their sleep and Leo could have got a spin off!

It really depends on the hook. The game can't be challenging on a level of frustration all the time obviously.. It just needs to provide just enough of the carrot but not too much. They can get away with it if they really do have something new and unique. Players wont put up with more of the same as easily.

Here is the fullschedule, but the EQN reveal is Friday at noon.
Thanks for the Info mate.

This is my only hope for future major AA MMO.

I cant stand Ncsoft and cant stand the cartoony art style with Wild star but we see if it has the content, gameplay as well as fun to hook me still.

Archage Trion version will more then likely play but if they have a lot of the other Asian Korean grind in it still more then likely wont play to long, long term.

As for Teso well I fucking have loved the elder scrolls since the very 1st Arena and always will.

But a Mutiplayer skyrim don't know anyone that would not love that, however they are trying to please the console gamers and the MMO gamers at the same time with the hero engine to boot.
This is a Premature Birth that should have been aborted, its going to be epic trainwreck that will make the Swtor debacle look like they are All-Pro.

Cheers.

Same lol, just found out a week ago that the community had relocated.
I've always enjoyed this community and I'm hoping that others either revitalize or resurrect with EQNext. I think that is one thing I miss most of all in MMO's are the various communities that were created outside of the game. We'll talk more about it i'm sure after the announcement and throughout beta but I wonder what guilds will reform or come back to EQNext? (Here's also hoping to old school server names)

So who thinks we will see dungeons like Guk, and Sebilis in EQN? Are those days over with well laid out, maze like dungeons... This is one of the biggest things I'm hoping to see in game.

My two biggest fears with the announcement Friday are Cartoony wow, wildstar graphics as well as console- bastardized chat system as bad as defiance pc chat bad or dc online pc chat bad to them porting this for pc, as well as the next gen consoles for more a market share, subs, cash shop etc.

I Know I said 2 biggest fears but there is 3rd fear, that is called Smokejumper as the lead Dev in charge of the project.

honestly you need to get way more in depth with that question.

this thread has thoroughly discussed instancing, dungeon difficulty, etc etc

I think ps2 has a standard mmo chat system so I imagine this one will too.

Basically non-theme park dungeons. Can easily get lost in the first few times you crawl through. Somewhere you can spend more than, an hour or two in., or blaze through to clear out your quest log.

I think we will.. which is part of the reason I think the leveling curve will be slower. Would be a total waste if people just leveled through them in a few hours.

ps4 might be close enough to a standard(ized) desktop that it won't suffer as badly as this gen of cross-platformers did. But wasn't ps3 actually pretty decent?

Working with that limited hard disk and ram -destroyed- cross platform versatility. But maybe that isn't applicable to next gen. Progress is possible.

Just commenting on what I've experienced from Sony cross platform games. So far they're console games that you can play on a desktop. Maybe ps4 changes that. I know they're saying it does.

Who said dungeons were going to remain the same as in EQ? Maybe they are constantly respawning to adjust to the general level of the server.

I just reinstalled PS2 after a while of not playing and they have made some really good changes to the game IMO, so I'm looking forward to see what they're going to release with a new EQ title.

Friday needs to be here faster.

I'm going off Flips info.. I think there will be dynamic content in addition to that stuff but who knows.. it could work like that.. As long as I'm not running the same dungeons over and over again...
