Server players limit?

That's not true. There were server limits during classic. I remember not being able to log on on busy nights due to the server being at capacity.

I somehow doubt that. I played on Fennin ro(one of the most popular ofthe original servers) since day 1 and never had that happen. I'm guessing what you experienced was a local zone being overcrowded and having connectivity issues. There problems with this constantly in high population zones like lower guk. If there were caps it would be a massive issue raiding guilds would have been cognizant of. it's possible they eventually added hard caps, but I never heard of that happening and would have been post velious where I highly doubt they had issues with high enough populations to even hit caps.

No offense, but this is a terrible idea. This population is as classic as it gets.

the population may be classic but people having 3+ alts each and everyone spending years in the limbo of velious end game is not necessarily classic.

Delete all your toons and start over. No more limbo ...

To me, Project1999 is kind of like a museum of sorts. Those that lived it live can relive it again, I am one of them as many of you are. It is also a place for kids and young adults who were too young or not even born yet to play the MMO that injected serious life into or some may say, started the mmorpg genre.
If you need more than Velious, EQLive is up and running with the rest of the expansions after Velious. This is probably why Daybreak doesn't mind P99.

But you got the classic experience before you got to that point. That's just the bonus package, baby.

Right now we are sitting right about where the more popular servers were in classic EQ. I think if we ever see a massive spike with close to 3K at primetime, then something might be worth considering. I think a reasonable chunk will split off when WoW classic comes out.

Less than 90 players on Red during prime time - thriving

I was under the impression that p99 had a 2000 player cap. Is that not the case?

[America]

did you mean 2001 for that last option????
