All those restrictions were part of classic EQ 1999. It's part of what made the game tedious and difficult.

CCing mobs is a lot more difficult without a Cycle NPC hotkey.

Quickly viewing around a wall to pacify a room and break it is made a lot more tedious when you have to cycle through F9 views and pan around to get targets.

Keeping track of who enters the zone on a PvP server is a lot more tedious if you can't devote an entire chat box to /who

The game has a different dynamic when all of those things are implemented. A lot of people who were previously extremely efficient and fast at playing their class, would be encumbered by some of the changes and be unable to perform them with the same level of accuracy and speed they can currently. Which leads to a more classic environment overall.

What's the speculation why it wouldn't premier August 1/2? I know you don't have inside info, so what's the reasonable speculation?

Velious has to be released so we can thoroughly test it. Don't forget friends, p99 blue is the true beta server.

The 2nd server will be the true p99 release server. Classic timeline, all the crap worked out.

I kinda hope he surprises everyone and we need a Trilogy client to access P99 Velious.

No scroll wheel to 3rd person
No DoT DMG
No Multi-Hotbutton box
No Mana value in Inventory
No Cycle NPC hotkeys
No multiple chatboxes

It would be so glorious to see who can ACTUALLY play classic EQ. And who likes to parade around with their non-classic features.

Would be so baller.

This would make me happy.

Kinda like forcing a person to use a popup toaster instead of a toaster oven.

Which would be a completely reasonable, if in your free time you wish to spend it in a time capsule hotel devoted to a time before toaster ovens existed...

There was never a time when toaster ovens didn't exist and popup toasters did.
