With the TLP server opening over on live and locked raid instances I am finding myself thinking about switching. I have always loved the PoP, Luclin expansions and really want to experience that again. Anyways just food for thought not meant to be negative as like I said I really enjoy this classic everquest.

Posting in stealth Luclin whine thread that's been on front page too long.
Cats... on the m-o-o-n (that spells moon). Not happening! meow?
The future is wat it is.

EQ is just an overly complicated chat program where people come to get drunk and chat with friends. Expansions don't matter, leveling doesn't matter, if it does matter to you then you're going to get bored and then start whining about expansions until you stop missing the point, if ever.

Me personally I would love it if p99 rolled back to pre-kunark, no expansions enabled, and stayed there.

There are so many things to do besides raiding i think. I'm making a druid solely for the purpose of Porting people around makin friends and ca$h!

Yep, a little porting, a little socializing, a little RP, a little raiding, a little farming, a little guiding of new players, a little alt leveling, a little crafting, a little mayhem, a little wholesale slaughter.

Since launch of EQ, years in PEQ grand creating from emu launch, to p99, I still haven't level capped every class and every tradeskill. I think I did that in GW2 by around seven or eight months after launch; every class every tradeskill capped and every inch of the game world explored and conquered both pve and pvp, somewhat casually (hard-cores had like 20+ chars capped by then). uh but here, put your life on hold a decade or two to do that.

I think the best place they can take this project in the future is a fresh server start once all the bugs are worked out and we've had a good amount of time with Velious. The original vision was for a recreated classic experience on an accurate timeline. I'd still like to experience that vision as it was described. The current blue server is great, but it went far too long in each expansion and was riddled with bugs and exploits early on. Round 2 is going to be even more amazing....

While this may make people upset I would love this!! I have been messing around on live and p99 is way better and suits my play style better. Just wish like stated before we got PoP.

Does anyone really think that in 10 years in 2026 to be exact that the blue server will still be stuck in Velious?

Imagine a server where every character slot you have is a level 60 char and the competition for scare content ensues. By that time everyone will have every piece of gear they need and probably most with epics. Loot would become worthless as everyone would be fully geared out with no additional alts that you can create. This is P1999 frozen at Velious taken to its logical conclusion.

The solution is simple, create an additional server:

1. Keep blue server stuck at Velious.
   
2. Create a new server that moves forward to newer selected expansions minus the horrible new character models, the bazaar and POK books

Everyone wins. Those that like being playing the same content over and over again can stay in Velious and be happy doing so. Those that want to move forward can play on the new server.

Kunark was the beginning of the end!

Seriously though, I'd love a vanilla EQ Proj!
