So eq pvp is awful and eq pve is worse (the stats don't support this theory mind you) so why is it so popular at all..

Everyone is a moron I guess. Time to get the hell outta here.

I love EQ as much as the next person around here, but to say EQ classic is popular, that's a stretch. If it was popular, especially classic, there would be more than 1 thriving server out there. Also, if there was really a demand for classic servers, then SOE would have made their own server by now. I believe all the players around here are really just nostalgic masochists (including myself).

You may have a point here :) But until Sony releases such a server we will never know (and IMHO if such a sever were to be released it would be steamrolled ! )

I dont understand the argument here, clearly P99 is the way to go (xp mod on red make life too easy and EQ WAS NOT EASY) the current modifier on P99 makes people not have to do quite the original grind but still makes advancement challenging.

That being said, I dont know why red even exists, P99 should just have more PVP events in places like lake rathe or even in random city pvp arenas.

Set up events in your guilds etc if you want pvp, random world ganking in pvp is ridiculous with the time consumption of corpse runs.

No one wants to run for a hour just because a lvl 60 decided to smoke a lvl 52 on their way to some location.

^^ ever had some dbag griefer train you in a dungeon? tried to petition, but you had no proof so the GMs couldn't do anything?

on red you can seek retribution. :)

Aerar

11-04-2013, 01:33 PM

great so then I can endlessly fight back and forth for a camp for like 10 hours and get nothing done.

Thats how I want to spend my limited time playing, on corpse runs.

If its anything like Vallon Zek was ( i know vallon was teams wah wah) then I expect there is plenty of Cleric killing on large pulls that lead to xp wipes for groups. Im over it, with a real life now its hard to expect people to waste that type of time

Certain people are drawn to open PvP servers and those are typically not the people I wish to game with.

What are you getting this from? Red Gaffin is chilling with epic and full gear, is same account as my blue, i thought we were cool swish, new low for you, pity reply.

on red you can get repeatedly ganked while fighting mobs by dbag griefers. :)

Red's fun for the right type of person, but expect a lot of this sort of thing.

Also, in case it isn't already obvious, posts painting a rosy picture of red are really just cries for fresh meat.

I agree, most of red is probably tired of killing the same people with epic gear over and over, they want to kill some fools in bronze armor with a fine steel wep

Haters, dunno why. I know there is this whole "pvp players are more skilled than pve" undertone but that is bs, apples to oranges. Don't buy into it bros. You're good at what ya do on blue.

Red is fun. I play there every day, I'm not top end by any means, maybe upper lowerclass at best. But I haven't logged on blue ever since, well a few times to liquidate all my gear on blue to trade for red plat. Because its FUN. Waaaaay more immersive/intense with people out there that might kill you. It's not a blood bath all day every day, think of it like faction. Ya make friends and don't get attacked as often.

Don't know why so many of you insist that giving red a try is a one-way ticket to hell. It's not.

im all for pvp if the new Teams99 server starts from scratch and isnt a server merge.

I just personally prefer starting from the same level as everyone else. I know people have played for years and all but you wont grow a population when there is only 100 people and they are all decked out. The curve to get in is too high.

I vote start Teams99 fresh delete red99 and then go from there.

big mouth chew

11-04-2013, 05:22 PM

fresh start isnt fresh for very long
wait til the first time you go to bed and see how fresh it feels in the morning :P when most of the people online are STiLL online and won't be logging off til they're at least 30 levels above you :P
and guess what? you'll end up having to go to sleep (or *GASP* work)again sometime, and its just gonna get worse from there

but yes you're right a fresh start is pretty fun in its own way
