I hate central city's, that's pretty much the shit they started in EQ2.
I like races spread out all over the places, so there is more of a unique experience depending on what race you pick.

In EQ, depending on where you started it was a vastly different feeling to the world, and people remembered those starting zones till this day.

Suggest one and create the article. See how swiftly it gets deleted. Nothing we do here is epic lulz worthy. Sam has a page because he is a repeatedly convicted sex offender.
Yeah I realize now shit here simply requires too much context as others have said. It's just fucking lulzy because we understand the context well.

Anyways FoH being gone, and much shit like Ravv hiding behind the registration wall mean it won't be happening barring another SDW like thing.

non corrupt GMs?? that is what kills every god damn emulator.
They would be fine if they could take out the ass hats that run them.

And yes, I know how corrupt GM's were in vanilla EQ, but that shit is much harder to get away with now.

A game/world that we did not learn every fucking thing about by playing for 5000hrs 14 years ago.

Edit: also we want something different also. Not simply EQ reskin I don't understand why some people don't get this. We want a game based on many of the key facets of EQ and without all the new stuff that has made MMOs into smaller less meaningful experiences. EQ and Vanilla to early BC wow was epic. I want the epic feeling in my mmos again, perhaps this can give us that.

I would like to see some more zones, or even instanced zones blocked off by some badass like this fella, keeping everyone out until a guild came along and make it safe to enter.

Except it was incredibly easy for a bard to DAsong train him away while you zoned in...

Yeah that was always possible but it was the bitch way to do it and made your entire raid a hassle. This guy was also a good cock blocker

Ha, they really should do that stuff up.. Make the gnome district have smaller doorways, troll district, dirty, with large doorways, etc.. I'm sure they can manage plenty of conflict with various NPCs too. Might turn out to be fun, if they do it right.. PvP would essentially have gang territories if they allow PvP in the major cities.
Yeah, Gangs of New York style shit.

For me it would be a professional dev team creating new content. A new world to explore.

I'm a EQClassic nerd, so they could copy/paste EQ's combat, classes, and systems into a new world and I'd be happy to be honest. I'm not saying they should do that, I'm not naive, just saying I'd be fine with that.

anyone care to summarize the last 15 pages that I dont feel like reading tonight?
Problem : Brads KS is not doing well enough

Answer : Get on the batphone to our favorite 36 boxing, #1 serverwide DPS sex offender!

Thats why I love this site.

Edit: Does Sam list an email address or does anyone know his? I will email him but it might be better if someone he recognized or many people did it.

New update on the kickstarter about cities:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...n/posts/729809

Armada, a.k.a. the Plank

Resting in the deadly waters of the Bloodflow Sea is the ragtag floating city of ships called Armada. First built as a secret trade port for pirates and rogues, this city has become a safe haven for anyone smart enough to find it and foolish enough to go. Its markets are often filled with rare trinkets of lost worlds, many swallowed up by the seas. This nautical hideaway may be dangerous and lawless, but it does abide by the Code of Marauders, a very vague set of laws that often seem to be in flux. Only those who serve the infamous mariner, Keelhaul the Pirate are immune to walking the plank, a near hourly form of entertainment. Deep below the shark infested waters of Armada is said to be the an ancient fortress whose wards are so powerful that it has kept the sea at bay for centuries and helps to form part of the cities more secret chambers.


Archway

Resting in the western shores of Kingsreach is the majestic city of Archway. It gains its name from the titanic arch that spans over the Tears of Hydronus, a water god whose final stand against the forces of Oranthel formed the area. Sitting atop the crown of the arch can be found Trident Castle, the throne of the Human Triundan Empire. Over time, this city has grown to become a major trade port for much of the Continent of Celestius and the small outer isles of the Bounty Sea. Having been forged on the unification of three Human pantheons, Archway boasts the largest and most diverse arcane institute, the Athenaeum of Arcane Studies and Auxiliaries. It is also home to the largest army north of the Falmyrys Forest. With the valiant King Kaedryn the IV as its ruler, Archway stands as a beacon of valor in the world of Terminus.

Aary was a giant pussy until they perma rooted him several months into vel. Dat LOS'able AOE. Now, Vyemm once they perma rooted him, my god the tears o_o.

edit: Also, any guild going into TOV for NTOV was going to clear sont. He was a goddamn key dragon.

Some may hate it but I really enjoyed the way PoP spaced out content without instancing and had plenty of content for everyone. From the most useless friends and family players, to the best raiding guilds.

At the start of that xpac when I first hit 65, I was in a useless guild and had some 2khp self buffed on my necro. The shit in tier 2 zones and BoT was very challenging and unforgiving, yet very rewarding Xp and loot wise. I got Keystone to sell me the 65 necro charm spell early. Ironically, this resulted in 10min AAs but also a ton of train wars between me and people who were using Keystone to Plvl alts.

I moved up gear and key wise and 4-5 months into PoP in spring 03 I had 90% VT and ele gear thus 4k hp unbuffed and likely twice as much mana as when i hit 65. I could now solo the PoFire mobs that gave 20% AA a kill solo, but also hit for 1k-3k a round on avg and used 40-60% of my mana bar per kill. A necro without great gear could never solo them effectively.w

There was something for everyone, and the population was spread out quite a bit. Maybe it helped playing a necro but I experienced it from a low end guild-mid tier guild- then at last a top guild and it seemed to work really well.

New world, new mobs, new swag gear.

Loved the creativity of some of the mobs like the jello cubes, conical terrors and the wide variety of environmental giants
