will you be playing the new live slow progression server?

[Oleris]

beta is live. Once it goes live I'm looking for someone to play a chanter/ench with my 3box. Will pay your sub for first 1-2 months. LMK if interested.

I logged in to beta, thanks to you guys that took all my names =P

I beta buffed my toon to 50, the gear on my beta buffed toon surprised me a lot. My spellbook was full of non expansion appropriate spells etc. I get its just a beta buffed toon, but this leaves me feeling that many many things will be in game that should not be, and it will trivialize the game / content even further than their modern patches already have (out of combat mana regen / hp regen seemed to work etc etc)

Not for me.

Like you said, its just beta. The speed at which they slammed the server out there leaves me with no surprises its full of stuff that it shouldn't. However, most will likely be cleaned up and remedied prior to launch in June.

DBG use players more than ever to test and help develop their games. Just like at EQN and H1Z1. This is no different with the beta server.

Unlikely this time. they figured that out with Fippy, granted 2 years into it, but still better late than never. Their logging is a lot better. If people think they will get away with gate cheats they will get banned. If it does start to happen the subs will drop off real fast and then they'll need to answer to their new Russian owners.

You could make 10 wizards, (1 clr rezzer) .. 10 box them and pwn the server with them all.

Anybody got a picture of the dude with 10 wizards challenging Fourier for a duel..
He put a picure of his 10 box wiz set-up on the forum then. Damm that picture was a long long time past

releases 5/20!

I don't think Ragefire will pull away many p1999ers because:
1) They want something up to velious or luclin, not after (Ragefire will progress after luclin)
2) Many don't want a modern retake either; ooc regen, non-classic quests/items, etc
2) People on live who're already paying the $15/month sub are more likely to play Ragefire

I think only people here who'll go to play on it are people who may want to try the normal servers or return to some of their characters on the normal servers AND pay the $15/month fee for the bonuses. Lets face it, the bulk of teh people who want Ragefire are likely already subbed to live right now or have at least played there recently.

I played for free last year on live. It was fun. Maybe if I returned and played some more i'd want to sub. But honestly I'd want to sub to play the normal servers. If I want classic, I'd come to p1999. Nothing beats it for the era it's made. BUT having said that, I enjoyed the POP and SOF/SOD eras, minus the Mckenzie mission bridge content patches. The Mckenzie missions were put in POK and basically a fast way to get lvl 80 characters into UF and after. Cheap gimmick bridge content. There was some fun to be had in the Mckenzie missions, but it's not EQ. It's an instanced monster mission. It's like a joke lacking subtlety. Look so I understand they want bridge content to move leveling players into higher tier content, but can't they respect the game? Even a shred of respect would include modifying the gameplay in SOD, but they did not. Mckenzie missions were the way to go.

You know what I always find ironic about all this??? I hated grinding things for quests in EQ. I hated that. I hated having to camp a ph for something to get to the next stage in a quest. That's obviously sucky. Or having to wait until you have X of something, grinding the same spot killing dozens of said creatures. Those things to me are what need to be addressed. But please don't destroy the game in the process. Don't kill the Risk vs Reward. Don't kill consequences. God, can these people do anything right? And don't evne think about suggesting more monster missions. They shoot themselves in the foot.
