Official EQ TLP Locked Velious Server
 

This is a forum post with the idea of EverQuest releasing a Velious locked TLP server. Getting a gauge of interest and waiting my official EQ forum post to be approved. Once it’s up, I’ll post it here for people to leave their thoughts to Daybreak.

I have played on Project 1999 for years and feel like a lot of players will come back to the original EQ with a Velious locked server due to the QoL enhancements that the P99 server lacks. I’ve also played on Mangler, but fell behind quick due to expansions lvl increases etc. A lot of players I feel run into this issue and end up cancelling their membership because they can’t find the time to grind.

Customer service is reliable via Daybreak compared to P99 that’s run independently. Make it a true box TLP server (2 total) that locks at Velious and people won’t worry about grinding constantly with the release of new expansions. Bring back old items (manastone, guise, etc) for a limited time and follow the original timeline up to Velious.

The biggest reasons for this: QoL, customer support, max Lvl 60, original timeline, etc. It allows people who played the game back in the day and currently to explore everything the original game, Kunark, and Velious have to offer, without the worries of grinding exp gear and content.

Per EverQuest’s official Twitter, they stated to post on the official EQ forums to see how much interest there is. Please leave your thoughts comments and let them know you want this. If it happens, I would join and pay for a membership again in a heartbeat.

Thanks

I'm poor af and part of P99's appeal is that it is free. If this server you propose was the same I would consider playing there.

The TLP servers and P99 are really not comparable in the experience you have on each offering.

Wtf is this. Someone delete this BS

My thoughts exactly. They (the Corporation) had a chance to make a game, they decided to make a cash pumping machine instead. I left and will not be returning to offer them my wallet again.

P99 is just fine, Thank you.

Have fun trying to play with a bunch of boxers on TLP lol

Even if P99 didn't exist, I'm not sure I'd play there. It's still not classic at all.

Agnarr was supposed to be the perfect server for me, a PoP locked TLP. I was dreaming of something like that, and for it to be hosted officially to boot. The zone overhauls, the graphics of all sort, the UI, just too much to list killed that dream of mine and I couldnt get past the stuff. Now that server population wise is near dead and the dream is gone. Im dreaming that one day Luclin at least is released on Blue.

^^server is literal ghost town 1-50

A server with...

-Old Freeport/Nektulos/Commons/Steamfont etc
-Locked at Velious
-The new tradeskill UI (seriously my wrists hurt doing them here)
-Agents of Change, so people can't get locked out of content by others in the community
-Strict no-boxing rule
-Krono? what's that? no such thing doesn't exist
-Free to play

...would be the absolute perfect server in my eyes.
