Fate of P99 blue

[Eldaran]

Judging from these forums i bet 100 people will be on the 99red server. There was over 900 on P99 blue last night. I can't see it having that much of an effect on the current server. Plus after people actually remember what EQ PvP is like, half of them will go back to WoW Arenas.

umm granted there was twoboxxing, but i saw vztz topping 300 players online when 1.0 was wiped and we had 2.0 come out. This is going to be about 3x more epic. I expect to see 300 one boxxers ezpz during first few weeks.

Deja Vu, but do we know what the ruleset will be for Red99? Everyone FFA RED or will it be Good Vs Evil, or Racial Pairings?

It's 90% likely to be a FFA set up like on VZTZ. You can bash the coding, playerbase, and GMs on vztz all you want, but almost everyone agrees the FFA ruleset used makes the most sense with a smaller playerbase on EQ PVP.

The Searyx poll was around 50/50 FFA vs Teams.

The lasher poll was 55% vs 45%

So it's more like 1/2 of people think that.

Most people asking for a new PvP server on EQ Live boards seem to want a team based PvP progression server:

And by 'everyone' he means his group of chronies.

You guys will gay the server up and you know it.

You will invite some guy into your group.. inspect him.. then kick him from group, kill him and loot what you want.

This type of behaviour will kill the server.

If you want longevity, teams is the only way to go. I suggest all teams have all classes, though. Altergate has a huge problem now with the way the classes were distributed.

I really enjoyed the Race War rulesets but if it's FFA i'm prob not gonna be interested.

FFA REULSET IS ONLY REULSET


pals can't hit guildies, AND those in the same group (imo).
