Are we ever going to get a kunark release date? Or are you going to, rather unclassically, spring it on us suddenly?

It's a little obnoxious that there's no officially announced release date with Kunark ostensibly less than a month away, and possibly just a week away if the wiki timeline (https://wiki.project1999.com/Timeline) holds true. Feels like we're just going to wake up one day and Kunark will be added in with no announcement or anything.

Getting ahead of the curve to monopolize limited content and deny others progress is the ultimate life goal of a significant fraction of this community. It's literally what they eat, sleep, and breathe. Marriage? Family? Holidays? Occupations? What the hell is all of that nonsense? Not important.

I heard some 'knowledgeable' players saying sol ro would be delayed. Took time off to get my guise but since it was delayed and my wife had just got IP exemption helped her level instead. That was a fun server wide message to see...

I really hope they make an official announcement. It's pretty unclassic to not know when its coming or be able to plan.

To those that say they should announce it because we knew in advance when it was coming back in the day... did you also know exactly what was in every zone? Which areas would be great XP? Which camps would be incredibly lucrative? Which items you needed to get within a certain time frame before they were removed?

I feel like they are keeping us in the dark for a very specific reason: it's the only control they have over our knowledge of Kunark (besides completely changing everything about it), and that's going to make it as classic as it can be.

if it was not coming on 11/06 we would have heard about it. Its also just a command that they need to run so don't need server down time like back in the day.

I have my doubts it's that simple. I'd imagine they'd at least need to do a server restart. and if it is still on track for 11/06 what's the harm the harm in confirming it?

Yeah I'm not sure why people think it's necessarily just "beep boop push kunark button". That is kind of a loose generalization of what the initial intention was for the post-blue server, but that doesn't mean it's that easy on a technical level, not to mention considering how to devise systems that will account for emergent player behavior. Deciding which camps to /list and which not to (and the necessary labor and coding for those), how the strain of constant petitions might impact the all-volunteer csr staff and how\where to take steps to mitigate petitions for that reason. There are two guys steering the ship for the thousands of people who play here (for free). Maybe cut them some slack.

I think they want it to be Nov 6 but haven't ironed out all the final details concerning Green99 Kunark code/mechanics yet. GM told me one of the things they want to do is add FTE zonewide tags to a list of mobs. The rumor from OOT is probably true - Nov 13th or later.

Sky dropped later because Seal Team camped the summon corpse mob for weeks without letting anyone else have a chance at getting the spell. After it became a list they had to give people a chance to get it so they could actually compete in sky.

Given the sheer number of new top tier items would it be feasible that there might be 15+Diff items on lists when kunark drops? I hardly see anyone mention what items would be listed whereas green launch had some items very well defined/expected as list

douglas1999
11-02-2020, 01:09 AM
I think the spirit of the lists was mainly for legacy items that stop dropping, so I'd expect the same criteria to apply for kunark items. However they did turn summon corpse into a list camp based on emergent player behavior so who the hell knows. I don't see there just being lists for every highly sought after item period, that seems antithetical to the core principles of the whole project

Everybody thinks they know everything when nobody knows shit. Nov 6 is an arbitrary date. It's not the actual 405 days from classic to Kunark. In addition, as many mention, there's tons of things that have happened between launch and this absolutely arbitrary date of Nov 6.

The staff's #1 concern is mitigating all the bullshit that's going to come to them when the xpack is released. If people could "play nice" they might actually tell us when they're gonna launch Kunark.

They have a lot of shit to do to get things ready on their end and really what they're doing is 110% trolling everyone and keeping them on "high alert" as long as possible with no notice just to fuck with them.

After reading this post I suggest banning the 10% with most played and the 10% with the lowest IQ.

There will be significant overlap but its essential to get both groups in their entirety.

It would make them gigantic douchebags if they just say nothing and simply don't launch it, leaving people to find out when the raft simply doesn't arrive on Friday.

The reason why they told people about the delay for Velious (I'm sure you know this) was because there were legal reasons why they couldn't launch Velious on March 1 2015 and they instead had to wait until August 1, 2015. If they made everyone wait for 5 months without saying anything then yes, I suppose one could consider them...."pieces of shit." Boy it was really funny to see the "preparation" for Velious by the neckbeards go up in flames. Everyone acts like they know everything, but really nobody knows shit.

At the end of the day the devs can do whatever the hell they want. We don't know what's going on in their personal lives, professional lives. I'm pretty sure the devs need to take PTO to launch Kunark as well. So do the other staff.

Did they tell their bosses and/or clients....last fall in 2019..."hey, there's this little pet project of mine where I run an emu of a 20 year old videogame that thousands of people with no lives play and foam at the mouth in anticipation of a launchdate of an expansion pack and oh, by the way, they bitch and moan all the time to us the entire fucking time they play it for free, so yeah Nov 6 over a year from now, I can't work that weekend"

I think its really funny to see everyone with their tighty-whiteys in a knot about it. Who gives a shit, wait another month, powerlevel another Rogue, permacamp some more green mobs for DKP, what the fuck does it matter anyways. Everyone is gonna play this game all fucking day long no matter what the devs do.

Shit, they could delay Kunark 5 months just like they did with Velious 5 years ago. Ya know what would happen??? Exactly what happened with the Velious launch. Everyone would still play this game all fucking day long.

The first expansion pack for EverQuest was EverQuest: The Ruins of Kunark, released on April 24, 2000. It introduced a new land area to the game, the continent of Kunark, which had been previously unexplored. Through a mix of in-game events and fiction published on the web by Verant Interactive, the storyline of the discovery of Kunark was established.

In terms of the game, The Ruins of Kunark had a very different visual feel compared to the original zones in EverQuest: the color palette was more vibrant and many of the models used for the monsters were more detailed. This detail was most evident in the Iksar, a new playable race of lizard people introduced with the expansion.[1] The Iksar had a number of racial advantages, including the ability to stay underwater for longer periods of time, additional regenerative powers, and an armor bonus. This was balanced by the fact that they were hated by all of the other races in the game and that there were very few places they could go without being attacked. They also could not wear plate armor.

The Kunark expansion also increased the maximum level a character could attain from 50 to 60, and introduced a substantial number of new and powerful monsters for characters above level 50 to fight.[2] The most notable of these was Veeshan's Peak, a zone populated by dragons that was, at its release, declared to be the hardest zone that would be put into EverQuest. Another notable and deep dungeon is Sebilis, the lair of the undead dragon Trakanon, which required players to level past the previous limit and obtain improved gear introduced in the expansion.

The Ruins of Kunark was also the focus of 'epic quests', or quests for powerful weapons for each character class, which were introduced between the Kunark and Velious expansions as a source of further high-end content. The Kunark expansion was unique in its method of distribution. A player would order the expansion from Verant's online store, and it was then shipped directly to the player's home. Unforeseen shipping delays caused many players to miss the expansion's official opening date. Thereafter, most EverQuest expansions were either available in local stores, or downloaded directly from Verant, many weeks before the official opening date.

In the United States, The Ruins of Kunark sold 92,172 units between February 2001 through the first week of November alone. Desslock of GameSpot reported that the game and The Scars of Velious "sold well early in the year, but sales evaporated during the course of the summer, especially after the release of Camelot."[3]

I've found the best way to get answers from Devs or just get them to agree with me is to insult them on multiple levels. Your insults are kind of just general insults. You really have to ramp up the personal attacks on them if you want any real information.

You're kind of at a deficit, so I would really have at it. Mama jokes, insults about immutable characteristics you can't actually see but you know they have, the full nine yards.

Believe it or not statistically the most effective way to encourage (and successfully communicate) two opposing people (or factions, tribes, whatever) is for one to ask the other for help.

Yes, but that is an insufficiently sarcastic post that would appear to be offering genuine help to someone who doesn't really want it. A sarcastic post would show the poster their behavior is not okay, and maybe they will change their behavior.

P.S. I think the poster knows what you're saying ;)

Which comes first, kunark out on green or America figures out who won the presidency?

Place your bets.

I mean, if they just don't open Kunark tomorrow, it's kinda like inviting a bunch of people to your birthday party and then when they show up you tell them there isn't actually any birthday party so please go away. There's no way they're delaying it without saying shit. It's coming tomorrow. Question is what time.

Quick, somebody start a UN for boat riding so we can all figure out raft and boat rotation.

Another problem nobody needed solved, solved.

Still waiting on some kind of announcement for when we can expect Kunark to be released. It is definitely not going to be this weekend. Even a "Some time in the next 30 days" would be a lovely piece of information to have.

So I distinctly remember just running out on the water using levitation in the Oasis an zoning into TD without the raft. My wizard quaded raptors for ages getting AA xp, I never waited for the raft.

I definitely don't think it ever worked that way, at least not during actual classic. AA's weren't a thing until... luclin right? Maybe they changed it later, but that really doesn't sound right. Even when they removed the boats on live and added translocators, you had to use the translocators you couldn't just zone accross by running.

Won't work, at least on P99. You need to be on the raft/boat to zone.

I thought you couldn’t zone into TD and OOT by running or swimming?

Everyone acts like they know everything, but really nobody knows shit.

Who gives a shit, wait another month, powerlevel another Rogue, permacamp some more green mobs for DKP, what the fuck does it matter anyways. Everyone is gonna play this game all fucking day long no matter what the devs do.

Shit, they could delay Kunark 5 months just like they did with Velious 5 years ago. Ya know what would happen??? Exactly what happened with the Velious launch. Everyone would still play this game all fucking day long.

Before the green server was released I was in Oasis swimming to build up my swimming skill, and then ..Loading, please wait... I was in in Timorous Deep on the Raft going to the island. It really happened - on the Blue server.

I can't believe how this launch went. I was watching the p99 front page for news it. Been busy with work and life but wanted to be sure to get on to bind at fire pots. I can't believe there was no front page announcement.

pallius

In disbelief I went to go try to bind anyway... yeah doesn't work. Bucket list item of mine I can't do.

On live, you could bind there a long time. I was playing on one server during kunark (I started with Kunark). Played a wiz to 50. Then switched to join friends on another server and played a magician and was able to level up without twinking or power leveling and went to go bind at the pots. It was available for a long time. I don't understand why it keeps getting shut down here so fast.

don't worry whenever I make a bucket list I always end up not doing any of it

I wanted a CoS and a blade of a black dragon eye but I'm too much of a casual to get

them

No one knew about the firepots in live.

So when we say they were open for a long time, what we mean is they were open for a longer time on p99 blue and a longer time on r99 and expected it to stay the same.

pallius
11-13-2020, 10:44 PM
Same issue was on blue. Tons of people remember it being around a long time but couldn't find the patch notes.

Basically it eventually wrecked the porting economy and they stopped letting melee bind with the click and then later stopped letting casters bind themselves. It was also announced with some notice that they were going to be shut off.

Well now that they are closed, its time to level up your "prank" character. Try to trick someone who's obviously bound at them into grouping with you to do some action they need to party up with you for, and then sneak attack them with a bind ;D Get a nice level 12 caster.

Nobody can prove it wasn't an accident.

And when they get super pissed, simply reply, “It’s just a prank, bro!”

Should be several months into Velious that the change is made to nerfed version.

edit: June 27th 2001 patch specifically makes the change; which is what, six months in to Velious?

Its like a full year before the COS is nerfed. Get a few while they are cheap. They are lore so all guys camping them need to move em pretty quick.
