Exploring Norrath = no fun

Oh, exploring is great. We all love Norrath.

Hunting around from zone to zone every night hoping to find something to even kill. That's no fun.

I moved to Teal. The only thing not classic about P99 for me is my work schedule. I just can’t run around looking for group with two open slots for an hour every time I want to play. Ain’t nobody got time for that.

I'm in the same boat. I work full time and go to school full time. I usually get a guild group, however, we don't have time to run around from camp to camp trying to find one that is open. On Sunday, our level 8-10 group went from Feerrott, to Guk, to SRo, to NRo, to EC, to LS, to Najena. Also, want to note that this was at 8am CST. Every single camp had a soloer, a duo, or a group on it. We ended up killing drakes in Lavastorm for awhile, although, it was slim pickings though with the 5 enchanters soloing them around us. I don't have an hour every day to get a group together and then go find a camp that isn't taken that is capable of sustaining a group. Most of my friends and guildies are in the same boat.

Also, Teal didn't feel empty to me. Crushbone, Befallen, and Guk (these were the ones that I checked) were all packed. The difference was is that there were actually camps available around these zones. In GFay, our level 5 group was able to camp one of the small orc tents near Crushbone.

The server has been up for less than 24 hours. A lot of people are still on the fence as to switch and two weeks is a long time to consider a change. I have a few friends that have been waiting for the lower level zones to die down before starting. This will allow them to actually start playing the game.

So, why did staff make a new empty (300 pop) server? Aren't blue and red already available for people that want empty solo play?

Why are the dark men of odus so not cool? Glad you stayed on green. Got really tired of the one in lavastorm parking red elementals on us with mez and zoning. Seriously.. not once but 3 times in 30 minutes. Almost like on purpose.

What do you mean "the one"?

What is your starting intelligence? Sub 100 no doubt.

My hypothesis proven. Thanks.

P1999 only had ~100 to 150 or so at peak when it first opened. "Teal" looks fine to me. Original game servers didn't all have the same populations either.

So, like I said, everyone on Green will pack into the high ZEM zones and the leveling path will be the same as it is on Blue.

Most people I know who don't come to these forums are waiting for green to die down before playing because their now limited time wasn't worth playing. They are starting Teal this weekend. Look forward to seeing truly classic friends play again. Praise Teal!

That's the truth, EQ and Ultima Online for me anyway. Could get away with the large time investment, I was a kid / young adult at the time. And had far more time to sink into the games then I do now. And even typing this makes me think I shouldn't even bother with teal lol.
