SW:TOR Guild coming to Project 1999

[kak_vander]

My Tor guild is on endgame and there isn't much to do. We decided to roll on Project 1999 and rock eq. Let me tell you how in two days we are spending more time playing this epic game than the latest and greatest. So many memories.

[Amelinda]

Welcome!! we are glad to have you. :) Enjoy!

[sbvera13]

Engame already? TOR must be worse then I thought.

More people is good!

[kak_vander]

We just play alittle too much. Its a fantastic game. But its more of a single player game with Coop than an MMO.

[Rubexcube666]

what you all going to roll as?

[kak_vander]

Currently:

Warrior, Druid, Shaman, Nerco , Chanter, ranger

But probably going to change to:

SK, Cleric, Shaman, Nerco, Chanter, Wiz

[Rubexcube666]

ok, well I just started and plan on playing quite a bit, I rolled a druid :P so when I hit high enough if you still don't have a druid for getting around let me know.

[kak_vander]

Let me know your char name, ill i'll throw you up on friends list

[Rogean]

I'm also in endgame swtor now, and going back to p99 programming ^_^

[Szeth]

Excellent news Emperor

[Elements]

Haha didn't you auto attack the druid GM the other day? :D

[Pomaikai]

Haha didn't you auto attack the druid GM the other day? :D

I remember doing that the very first time I played EQ on a Ranger. I spawned, walked in, accidentally hit the A key, and died. I'm pretty sure my face looked like this: :eek:

[Rubexcube666]

Yes, yes i did... Q is not strafe Q is autoattack....

[fischsemmel]

I'm also in endgame swtor now, and going back to p99 programming ^_^

I loled :)

[Dlardlar]

Play on red 99 it's a better experience

[Amelinda]

THANK GOD!!!!!

PS.....

Dearest Rogean:

<-------- *grovel* *plead* :) <3 ??

[acid_reflux]

I don't know why anyone would want to feed the George Lucas creature. It needs to die and spare us the continual perversion of the original movies or any other parasite that breaks off its ass to suck hard earned money out if you wallets.

Edit: Oh! Welcome to p1999. Its way better than Jedi mind tricks.

[Farrakhan]

Got my Jedi Sage to lvl 25 or so, but haven't logged on since I found out about P99....

[kak_vander]

We all did Karraga's Palace Raid last night... and couldn't finish fast enough to play EQ..

We ended up with a Warrior, Shaman, Cleric, Nerco, Chanter and my wife will make a rogue when the IP exception goes through.

Good Times.

[Gwence]

16m nightmare?


if not... then you aren't at ToR endgame lol

[kak_vander]

Hard Modes right now. Funny how i die more at level 3 killing orcs than I do in Raids.
Old School EQ = difficult

[Raavak]

I'm also in endgame swtor now, and going back to p99 programming ^_^
Magelo clone prz

[Gwence]

the hards are what the normal raids should be imo



normal isnt even worth discussing

the nm modes are very challenging, only like 5 or 6 guilds I believe that are 10/10 in 16 man


8 man also not worth mentioning on any level /faceroll

whats your in game name? I'll come drop some shammy buffs on your group sometime.

PS - who needs a single puller with an enchanter? :P

[Silentone]

eq on p99 at low levels with a group of friends = priceless

[Diggles]

Plenty of endgame for pvpers... 3 instances and a giant pvp planet...


okay yeah i've rolled lots of alts.

[Envious]

SW:TOR is total trash.

WoW clone, and a poor one at that.

ITS THE FROG DOGS FOR THE SCORE!!! WTS 6000 hours of crap voice overs capping a horrid quest grind I never wanted to do again after leveling my first alt in WoW~

[Diggles]

what?

[garyogburn]

SWTOR will be a good single player RPG when they fix combat. Its too bad that theyre already balancing the game around pvp, though.

P99 is a better overall experience, imo.

You guys should roll red. That would stir things up a bit.

PvP for dragons instead of waiting for a turn to poopsock one.

[mwatt]

If you do decide to "roll red", i.e. PVP, be advised that is a very different expeience than you will find on the "blue" (main) server. If you are looking to relive your original EQ experience, you probably want to be on the regular Project 1999 server.

[Swarws]

Hey, If your team is planning to play a lot send Rusl or Kolevii a tell. They can help ya out if you are thinking about endgame on p99.

We aren't sure what our complete plans are. Obviously we have all these plans on attack to gear us out and level up together. Gchat is blowing up at work with links of gear.

[Torven]

Have you even played it?

Why do you ask if he has? He is entirely correct. The game clones WoW to a laughable degree-- only the game is even more dumbed down and has none of the Blizzard polish. If the game had a new unique IP instead of star wars then it would have failed big time. I'm only sad the game will make a profit, because I'm offended as a gamer that it was even made.

Seven years and counting and we still get nothing but WoW clone after WoW clone. And jackasses just eat it up. When I see WoW and any pseudo MMORPG made after it, I see something not much better than a facebook flash game made by Zynga. They all sold out depth and gameplay to lure casual idiots into a lame skinner box. Imagination from game development is gone. MMORPG designer is the easiest job in the world now. Just follow Blizzard's blueprint. Make a shitty copy of a shitty game and get paid.

Yes I play it, but only because I didn't have to pay for it and a good friend of mine likes star wars and plays it. I play it sort of like how you might go to a shitty movie with friends.

[Mardur]

Good choice, was going to say don't bother with a Shadowknight, great for keeping threat, but the penalty will mean u will level 40% slower than the rest. So u will need to play 3 times as much (considering u exp more than twice as slow solo) to make up for the time :P

Not really, exp penalty is shared so each member of the group as a whole will level about 10% slower (considering you'll probably go for a large race and casters have a small penalty themselves).

I've heard many bad things about the game too, but I don't make assumptions and cry on the internet about things unless I have experienced them first hand.

[kak_vander]

I loved Tor, but he above poster is right. Its just a WoW Clone that you can faceroll and win. There is zero risk/reward in the game. I probably love it because i'm such a SW nerd. The best i've heard of an explaination is that its a coop Single player RPG.

The video's are great, the stories are interesting and the presentation is nice... but its all just fluff added to a slightly altered model.

[haddad]

Just like TOR has no risk / reward metric, you could say that the design of the game follows the same idea...

Anyways, I am hoping to start on this server. I was worried I am too late to find grouping opportunities.

I plan on playing around 7-12 PST on a semi regular basis and more on weekends.

Anyone from Drinal back in the velious days?

[kak_vander]

You will not have problems finding anyone. This community is a+ and there are plenty of low level characters

[noffo]

I don't know why anyone would want to feed the George Lucas creature. It needs to die and spare us the continual perversion of the original movies or any other parasite that breaks off its ass to suck hard earned money out if you wallets.

Like Episode I in 3D.

What a waste. Should've been the original Star Wars. I would have gone to see that, as long as Han shoots first!

[Mcbard]

What a waste. Should've been the original Star Wars. I would have gone to see that, as long as Han shoots first!

I think they intend on doing them, but are going in order of the timeline, hence Episode I first as opposed to Episode 4.

[Pomaikai]

So we have three years of 3D crap until we get to the good stuff, and then we're still hoping that we get to see Greedo shoot first AGAIN...

I was on Drinal :) what was your char names?

I was also on Drinal and had various characters. PM me if you want to start up a glory days conversation.

As to worrying about being too late to find grouping opportunities, I'd say that worry is for the most part unfounded. There are still lots of long term P99 players working up alts and there is also an influx of new players at this time.

[kak_vander]

Well is seems our final load is as follows:

Ogre Warrior, Troll Shaman, DE Rogue, DE, Cleric, DE Chanter, DE Wizard.

Heals, CC, Port, SoW, Clarity, Haste... Anything I missed?

[loneless999]

love SW.TOR but it dose not have the same feeling EQ / WOW / DAOC had when i started playing them
voiced quests are very good but once you have completed them once with 1 char i was a bit loathed to do them all over again with another
i just spaced bar skiped through it making it a pointless addition to the game
but it has been the only game iv played quest wise that made me think about my actions i felt bad killing jawas and pissing off my T7 companion

not gonna say its totally crap or anything was deff a good effort better than SOES SWG

give it a play

[Raelador]

SOES SWG is one of the greatest MMOs of all time. Nothing will ever be as unique as that game was.

[bodrian]

I left swtor too. Looking to lvl up with a group of players who love the group encouragement factor of classic eq too. In game name is beroni. Look me up. You'll find me in cb ATM.

[eqravenprince]

Well is seems our final load is as follows:

Ogre Warrior, Troll Shaman, DE Rogue, DE, Cleric, DE Chanter, DE Wizard.

Heals, CC, Port, SoW, Clarity, Haste... Anything I missed?

Yes, who pulls. That will be one overworked Chanter. I would replace the Warrior with a Sk or Paladin personally. I would replace the Wizard with a Monk, but I understand having ports is nice.
