Temporarily splitting Green?

There's lots of people but I've never felt like there's so many that I can't possibly progress.

If you were going to have 2 servers, the time for that would have been at launch with a quick merger in a week or two. Not now.

I voted no on opening night because I knew things would clear up within a day or two, but could understand the people who voted yes. I can't really understand people who want a server split now. I'm not sure what you're trying to get out of the game, a solo experience where every mob in the game is readily available?

I love the "I am okay, so everything is fine." Meanwhile, players cannot find a group or a spawn to save their lives. But yeah, it will clear up. smh

Question for you: Where do you plan to level up once you hit level 25 or so?

[Khorza]

I absolutely do not believe that there are so many players 25+ that you can't find a mob to kill.

That's ridiculous, cmon dude. That's like <1% of the server population. You don't need a new server. Try harder.

That was not where I was going with this, not what I said, nor was that my question...

The assumptions here are mind blowing.

Where do you plan to level up once you hit level 25 or so? Assume that I already know the answer and have a point!

[Khorza]

If you had a point you would have just stated it.

Things are competitive yet fine in the mid teens.

By the mid 20s people will have spread out a lot more, and there's more hunting areas in the game.

players cannot find a group or a spawn to save their lives.

Every night this week I've found a group within 30 minutes of logging in after work. Usually within like 10 minutes. Gained a level+ in all of them.

Again, because YOU are okay, there is no problem, right?

smh

There are less places to go the higher you get. How many people can you fit in Guk/Sola/b?

Yes... because I'm a person playing on the server, just like everyone else. I'm having the same experiences that other people are having. Is there any logical reason that my opinion should be disregarded, or are you just basing that on whether someone agrees with you or not?

What's most likely is that people aren't putting much time or effort into finding a group, or they're going to the wrong zones, or they're a less desirable class like a hybrid. There's a bunch of factors, but a new server isn't going to fix any of them.

Yeah, we couldn't possibly fit a bunch of players into Guk, it's only the largest dungeon in the game.

Sol A is huge too. You can fit a group at the entrance, at predator, at bar, at king, at kindle, at captain/efreeti, at the elementals, there's at least 3 spots where you could camp gnomes and you could probably fit a random group or two or some soloers around the spots that don't have any nameds spawn near them. So you're looking at 60+ people easily there, which we may never even reach considering that Unrest gets about 40-50 at prime time right now and less people will make it to their 20s, and there's a lot more options for places to go in the 20s.

In fact 25 is probably the worst level that you could have focused on. Just about every zone in the game has stuff to kill around that level range. Things only start to get restrictive in your upper 40s when you really only have stuff like LGuk, SolB, guards, and some other various stuff to exp on. Lower levels are very restricting too, but the player base is moving past those levels now.

Mid 20s has like... Splitpaw, SolA, Cazic Thule, Runnyeye, Mistmoore, Highkeep, Permafrost, Najena, could even do the Shin Lord camp in Upper Guk. That's just about every dungeon in the game. And then you have most of the decent outdoor zones too like South Karana.

It's the one level range in vanilla EQ where you're overwhelmed with potential places to exp.

it works the opposite way

You know people have no argument when they start spouting cryptic bs like this which conveys literally zero information.

That's because the statement speaks for itself and no information is required [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

But you're a lost cause that only cares about themselves and therefore, there are no issues so, it's pointless to carry a conversation on with you.

How does my argument suggest that I only care about myself? How does not opening a new server benefit me, but not benefit you? Are you even taking 1 second to think about the crazy stuff you're saying?

Oh I see, you can't actually respond to any of the points I made (because they're logically valid, and yours are not) so you're just going to call me a moron and say the conversation's over.

Classic P99 forum discussion.

it's not cryptic to anyone who played vanilla

anyway don't split green but do normalize spawn times to 800-1000 people
