Ya pretty much same thing bro. The constant quest you get after you kill raid mob x that was my point. Stuff to do between raids that is still a group effort for the guild. Everyone kills the first boss in the zone, then you have to go do a bunch of stuff that is group work but still cool reminded me of SWG having to jump on stuff and do puzzzles that were in crazy places to get those extra stats is fun. Then you feel like you've put in good effort to get to the next part of the quest which leads you back into the raid zone. Its fun to be able to do one huge meaning ful quest with your guild who's all on the same steps but then everyone has to stop at the point where you kill the next raid boss. Thats the problem with games these days, theres NOTHING to do for max levels EXCEPT raid. And then people get bored.

We'll be cordial, but this isn't Reddit. I would hope they would value honesty, but perhaps not if Reddit is in fact where they're getting their community direction.
I scanned the EQN sub for about 10 minutes, was enough.

I think people will..I mean as long as they are not coming off like a snake oil salesman. Just keep things honest and it should be productive for all.
Btw..I think by now they are aware of the major concerns with EQN. They have a vision obviously.. So they should totally peruse it until it work or come to the conclusion that it falls flat. Worst case we revamp with a EQ/VG hybrid ;-)

Mmorpg is one of the most casual meetup gaming sites i've ever seen. I went on there this morning and the first thread I saw was why the game should be PAY2WIN and I just closed the window.

Terrible place and they allow the shills to run wild.. You can't have real discussion on there.
The enrage timer, as of now, is the best solution. If you remove an enrage timer for a boss and you have a 10 person raid team, nothing is stopping that team from 1 tank 9 healing that boss. Effectively, making everything that boss does trivial. Where is the challenge? The object of raiding is to solve a puzzle as a team.

That's the kind of "enrage timer" I can get behind. I'm playing a fantasy game because I like a bit of immersion in my in spare time. If I wanted to play with optimized statistical spreadsheets I would just run missions in EVE. So as long as the dev takes the time to design enrage timers that comply with my suspension of disbelief I'm fine with that. But the 100th boss mob that gets overpowerful after exactly x minutes ruins that. Believable soft enrage timers are ok-ish (in EQN, I want to be able to prepare for that encounter by digging flow trenches for the lava to buy our raid some time - so get on that liquid voxel tech SOE).

I'm neutral to positive on keying. I prefer it to be a solo/group activity though, reflag raid days is something I dont really want to see again. I'm sure if someone puts some effort into it they can come up with a key quest method that's better then spending your yearly vacation time in maidens eye.

Eh. That'll just lead to BS like banning Ut again. If a dev wants to post on this board he should realize a shitstorm is coming and put on his flame retardant - mmorpg has a ton of people screaming EQN sucks so if McPherson can post there he can post here. Except here the reasons for our concern will be better articulated.

That is a very interesting idea bringing crafter/digging or whatever types into raid style things could be interesting. I would like to see reasons for people to have to do stuff like this, and have to parkour around objects and stuff to get away from the boss when he "looks back" at you or something instead of red circles. The raids need to be epic not just tank and spank but right now i'm hearing no raids if there isn't raiding in this game that will be revolutionary as in one of the most casual games ever made. Look how long neverwinter lasted? Not having high end content for the dedicated gamers is a HUGE mistake.
There should be aspecificdev team in place JUST for high end content. They don't even care about what happens until the final tiers of the game thats all they are dedicated to doing. If you focus all ur bullets on low level to mid level stuff the core of the gamers are going to feel it and quit.
The problem with them posting here is it isnt specific topics, this board is just a constant discussion that changes topic every 3-4 pages. Unless they checked in 10x a day they would lose track of any type of convo.
