No patch in 5 months. Signs we're nearly at completion status?

It's not. Going. To. Happen. If Daybreak continues to make a profit from new progression servers.

Agree with this. It's pretty obvious they are going to release an official Velious locked server next summer. People here like to pretend like P99 is untouchable, but unless the servers and the staff are located in Russia or something, if Daybreak really wanted too they could shut this down in an heartbeat.

Daybreak could lawyer up and go after P99 for using their trademark ... but they would only hurt themselves in the process.

Think of it this way: how many people left Project 1999 for Agnar? How many of those people would never even have known Agnar existed if not for Project 1999? Those are customers that Daybreak got without spending a cent on advertising: P99 provided them "for free".

In other words, Project 1999 is good for Daybreak, and that is why they won't shut it down. They might want to maximize how much benefit they get from Project 1999 (eg. by making them delay a new server until Agnar has been out awhile), but they don't want to kill the goose that lays golden eggs for them.

Reminds me of the Jack Daniels commercial that shows how apple flavored JD is made, with an apple that is dropped from a tree above into a steampunk/gnomish looking contraption that then funnels the dropped apple down into a swinging axe blade that chops the apple in half then proceeds to liquify the pieces of apple into a mixture with the alcohol that then creates apple flavored JD whiskey. Same process it sounds like to me.
