DA MOON!
 

I was playing my new little rogue. I was like this is BOGUS! The moon?!? Not classic! Take the servers DOWN! What is gonna happen to us all? :D

25 will be the year of merges

Vindi BP still not fix Rog, come on man

/chant What do we want?
/chant Food and drink durations!
/chant When do we want it?
/chant NOW!

Just downloaded the new patch. Whenever I enter game, its extremely choppy, I can’t look around, and there appears to be some issue with chat cause I’m not getting the camp count down and have to /q. Anyone getting this?

I have this problem when login the first time after this patch too,
i quit the game and open eqclient.ini change the maxfps to something like 30,
login again it becomes normal, which means the fps bar in game setting is working
i don't know why but its ok now~

There was an optional patch that re-enabled the FPS slider in-game a couple weeks ago. Maybe it's included in this patch by default, so if your slider is set to a low value, everything will be choppy until you change it.

Hmm my barb is no longer blind at night. With gamma up everything has a consistent blue glow, almost like I have a weak form of UV on. Then when I get actual UV it's really bright.

Before patch barb\humans were truly night blind even with gamma up. Only lightsources would help.

Not really a complaint so much as the first thing I noticed. I understand UV\Infra were changed, but it seems to be quite a bit different now even without any vision buffs.

Thank you Rogean, Nilbog, Telin et al.!
