Zone instance

[JDFriend99]

Thoughts.

We all know 20 percent or so is not classic because it can't be from idiots ruining classic.

So would instances zones be a solid alternative if it charged the person making it 10,20,50,100k a session for a 24 hour zone for themselves and up to 6 players?

This is easy to do. I'm just wondering if it's time or not to save grief of casuals wanting stuff and elites taking stuff.

Thoughts please.

How bout they just make open raids set time earth quakes on the 1st weekend? So casual players dont have to wait till 4am to join a raid?

[Shinko]

Lower the windows so smaller guild can plan and not have burn out for 16 hours

Passing gas

No one liked that idea. Fair enough. I did it on one server secrets helped on. It was successful. Pay 20k farm 40k no competition.

Lack of instancing is one of the very reasons we are here on P99.
Along with boxing prohibition, no post-Velious content, and such.

Lets not kid ourselves most people are here because it's free and someone they know who played on here said hey come try p99 it's fun. Boxing prohibition is great but everything else you listed is also great. There is an extremely vocal minority who are against instancing and post-velious content. Let me say that again. Extremely vocal, extremely minority. Force everyone who logs in to vote on whether they would want to see post velious content and instances and there would be 60% approval of both, if not more.

P99 with instanced raiding would probably require Rog and Bog to buy more hamsters to run the box. It would make 90% of anyone who has ever played on p99 happy.

[Praxcthius]

did you do a poll? or send out flyers for people to survey what they're opinion is on instancing? you can do instancing. wow eq2 eqlive insert random ridiculous other game here. post velious content would be nice

Interesting to say not to kid ourselves at the begining of your wall of make-em-up statistics

That's what the TLPs are for, got to give them some purpose to exist if you can't cut it here in Velious.

If we are going to cater towards a more casual raid atmosphere absolutely. And that seems like the trend. Staff needs to be absolutely clear what they want for this server. The top end raiders want to make a decision of what to do. Being in limbo half in half out is ball breaking at this point. Either there is a top end of this server or not. Full casual or top end. There is no middle ground.

[CancerMage]

If not aloud to dominate classic eq I want to know. So I can go be the best somewhere else.

[nostalgiaquest]

I suggest you try to be the best somewhere else other than p99. Good luck in your quest.

Not gonna happen.

Best we can hope is a mix of rotated targets and competitive targets.

[Shinko]

Bring back class R C and FFA and leave VP R only :D

[Shinko]

+ bring back quakes

[Clumpoid]

People like to say non-instance is hard and cool but in what way? Is waiting hardcore? At least in a TLP you get to play the game. If you gonna brag that you waited longer or harder than another guild then maybe take a look at your life lol.

[nostalgiaquest]

the only measure of success to these people is how well you deny other's pixels. It's hilarious and sad. Mostly sad. and hilarious.

Do you just wildly adjust your opinion depending on who you’re trying to troll?

You won't get a Trak FTE on green until top guild has got enough teeth (which is next to never)... if you want to open up VP to more guilds sooner then this isn't the way.

A rotation is the fairest but the unemployed won't allow that.
