regular EQ launch had like 700 people...this is triple the amt of people to the point they had to increase spawn rate 80%...so ummmm yea we need 2-3 servers

But if they have resources for a second server … maybe they could open it up for a fresh PVP server with teams!

Population is VERY important to the success of Green. Do not make a 2nd server.

PVP server with teams!

I'd quit green for that.

Teams PvP was what was promised before the mysterious meeting that caused Velious to be delayed, just in time for Daybreak's latest progression server at that time. All sorts of hype and podcasts covered what the staff was going to try, and Sirken was itching to get it going.

Then nothing.

Honestly,. that's not even an issue. With the increased noobie zone spawn rate. People are filing through in a normal classic fashion.

I understand staff may get a lot more petitions lately but give it a couple days. Things will be normal and good!

With 120 in Misty Thicket, I joined a group, got to level 4, and made several pieces of tattered/patchwork armor in 4 hours, including UI setup time and 1 death. It will only get better as the population levels up and spreads out.

I guess a temporary second server would be fine, though.

If there is another server, hopefully it is pvp. xoxoxo

Polixa
10-25-2019, 09:39 PM
But will the pop spread out? Once 2000 people hit L25? There are fewer mid level hunting spots than newbie zones.

Once the bulk of people hit 40, and one Sol B spawn point per group, Blue will look attractive again.

Once the 2 dragons are locked down by a 300 member guild, Blue will look like paradise...

I want a second server, as in, a Green dumping ground for when the Classic Green cycle hits Luclin. Leave Blue alone, let it be the server for customized "in the spirit of what classic should have expanded to after Velious" and give it all the good QoL stuff. DON'T dump the legacy stuff from the Green(s) onto Blue.

Why not? They killed one perfectly good server in blue why not launch a Second green one so none of them are successful? I just had to chime in cuz this thread made me laugh. You don't want a second green server? I can relate, I didn't want this one in the first place. I almost feel completely left out, not only am I not excited about it, I can't even understand why anybody else is. "Oh boy we get to start over again, limited to original World content, a few custom rules and a level cap of 50", not only is that a hard pass for me I do not understand why people are excited about it except people who have been away for a really long time.

Because the prices are inflated, raiding is toxic, and if you want an epic piece for you better be ready to shell out 100k-500k to poopsocking neck beards stuck in their chairs since 2002.

A chance for hundreds or thousands of us, to play some classic EQ from day 1, without competing with fanboy00twink

You don’t need to feel left out. In a month 500 of these guys will be back on blue. And it’ll be back to the 900 that were always on

I completely disagree with everything you said but I hope you're right about the people going back to Blue. It's none of the things you think it is that separates the Wheat and the chaf. It's not that they're "poopsocking neckbeard stuck in their chair since 2002" Hell I started last February and I don't think 500k is a lot of money. It's the way they approach the game, something they won't change and so they'll have the exact same frustrated experience on Green. But I do thank you for at least trying to explain to me what it is they're excited about: hope. It gives people hope that they can be on top. They can't, their approach to the game prevents it, but they'll learn that in time.

I'll check out green when they release kunark on it. The original era of EQ didn't really appeal to me that much, buddy of mine I worked with spent pretty much the whole original period trying to get me to start playing which I did right before kunark was released because it looks so damn cool on the box to be honest

Yeah, you don't understand, which is fine. You haven't played EQ pvp, most people haven't.

Turning in that book makes you unhealable and unbuffable by anyone who didnt turn in the book and makes grouping/raiding/anything basically impossible.

So then what, you're relegated to grouping with the other people who turned in the book (so you're probably not going going to pvp them) but still cant contest camps or other disputes via pvp with those who didnt turn in the book.

Dumb.

Eq on a pvp server feels different. You're constantly checking who's in your zone to see if a new person you dont know is around. People start asking if anyone knows Amaurot, what class/level is he? Is he a good dude? Most people run /anon or /roleplay so you dont know what class or level they are and if they're a threat

Conflicts or resources competition can be resolved by combat. Sure you can harmtouch that Ranger low on hp fighting a rabid grizzly bear because you want the bear for yourself but your reputation will follow you, and is in some ways more important than on a non pvp server. Maybe the Ranger gets his friends and they hunt you down.

It brings an element of both paranoia and community bonding while resolving list mechanics and the ability to address territorial disputes.

Now, a lot of people will point to the red server's languishing population as proof of an EQ PvP server not working, well I can only mention there is A LOT more to that story than most are aware of which include huge changes to PvP mechanics and group dynamics and SEVERAL staff members who are all no longer staff members.

What was a healthy classic server population back in 99? Was it 3k, 2k, 1k, 800, fewer? If 1k is healthy and we at a steady 2.5k peak, yea maybe you all should roll another server.

It might divide some people which sucks though... we gonna have to form server factions. Cross server /war. It's the only way.

Honestly, if they opened a second Green server I’d just stop playing Green and go back to Blue. In a couple months, all the recently joined population will stop playing and the population will be back to 1-1.2k at prime time on Green. Split that in half for two servers and why play at all? Blue has similar population to that so I’d rather go play my established characters at that point.

The artificial spawn rate still has mobs dead in a few seconds from spawning.

I'd actually go for 4 servers with this population and in a month from now if naggy/vox aren't dead within minutes of spawning on any of those servers merge them back into 2.

And did someone ever think that most of new player didnt configure their chat window and missed the rogean message (and didnt answer for sure..)
Player who played blue want more challenge.. i can understand this. they ask for malus xp etc... but im not sure the 2k more people that came for green have fun waiting a bat on a single spawn point and having a 5/6 man group killing it (and then claim proudly on the forum that they did it ! )

Your post history suggests you were excited. Cool. So was LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE.

Then when the server came up and it was as busy as most everyone said it was going to be, and you had some bad experiences with the rush of people thrilled to grab hold of every part of the green launch they could, you come on the forums and complain about the volunteer staff, who are few in number, letting "anarchy" reign and equate the people who didn't jump to share kills with you ingame to real-life racists and say that you hope green server fails and complain that SURELY the only reason anyone doesn't want a new server is because they're selfish pricks but YOU of course are only speaking on behalf of all the poor, downtrodden newcomers.

Gm changed respawn to be faster because there is too much people, but some people just abuse about it. And they can proudly say on forum " we were not 5 but 6 on the group that ks you.
Blue people are not impacted, they have a guild, they have a blue char they can play waiting.
New people dont. So only option is to be reckt by unfair people and shut our mouth or leave.
I dont think staff did a bad job, but they have a ton of work today to ensure the perenity of green serv.

And feel free to insult, i already underlined you were a coward, do this behind your screen, using that double talk that implie insults, without the courage to assume your words

I have no problem asking gm to ensure fair-play on their server
And if you think i deserve to be insulted for this, feel free to do it, be yourself, be the cow !!

Imagine Everquest but you can use the gear you spend a billion hours camping to kill other players

once you experience the neckbeard adrenaline rush of pvp'ing for a camp deep in Lower Guk, you'll never want to go back to blue (or green - whatever)

also, the pvp community is not toxic at all and rly friendly normal ppl :)

Because the prices are inflated, raiding is toxic, and if you want an epic piece for you better be ready to shell out 100k-500k to poopsocking neck beards stuck in their chairs since 2002.

A chance for hundreds or thousands of us, to play some classic EQ from day 1, without competing with fanboy00twink

Except this cycle happens with every new server. Players are mad because they don't have access to Content X, they ask for a new server, it launches, and then Content X gets monopolized by the same exact neckbeards that monopolized it on the last server. So you ask for a new server so you can experience Content X and the cycle continues.

Team PvP sounds great until you find out that the other team has more players and now they can monopolize the content even more effectively than they did on Blue or Green or whatever other server.

Classic EQ will never be a fair game, so there will always be complaints regardless of what the devs do.

You're not meant to kill other players, just their characters.

At least then players can channel their frustration into an opposing team (Threads about "fuck the Evil team" instead of deracinated individuals yelling into the void about individual player conduct) through which you have a cathartic way of satisfying your grievance (get the lads together and kill them) rather than into, well, nothing.

I vote for red99 merging into the trashcan that is blue 99 and open a new green red99 so we who enjoy actual difficult rpgs can play too, would love to experience everquest in pure darkness with pvp

I'm not sure if adding 15 daily players to Blue is going to do much for its numbers, Smedy.
