They wouldn't do it because they would want to pull from the casual crowd which is why they added all the bullshit they added that killed EQ.

Whine whine whine, camps too long, can't get a camp in 5 minutes, can't play ALL night like those pooples with great gear, staring at the spell book is too hard and dangerous, can't get a group, there aren't enough clerics, rangers suck really bad... for years the whining went on which encouraged Sony to 'fix' those things, including the ever so difficult to press C key.

Press C ffs.

You honestly can't see the difference between huge changes like PoK teleports making the world feel small and heavy instancing ruining the game and stuff like not being able to tell what green mobs give exp and which ones don't and whether or not you have to press C to see what con a mob is?

Hint: There's a big difference. Certain changes made the game better. Others made it worse. I don't get the mentality "Let's implement shitty changes nobody wants just so we can say "Classic gais!" I'm sure you'll reply with some tired old argument along the lines of "Well where do we draw the line then?!" but that's a cop out and you know it. I think the vast majority of people playing on this server would agree that being able to see con without hitting C isn't something they feel dumbs down the game or should be changed. Nor would they approve of getting rid of light blue and making all light blues green thereby eliminating any way of knowing which green mobs will give you exp and which ones won't. This isn't hard man.... Why can't we just make the game fun? Contrary to popular belief IT IS possible to have the benefits of Classic EQ without all the terrible game mechanics that went with it.

Its more a matter of feature creep, a slippery slope thing. So they leave this one thing in then the next thing that wasn't classic gets left out because they left this in, and so and so on.

There's already many posts on these forums that use that argument. IMO and its only my opinion, if it can be made classic easily (like this thing) then it should be regardless of whether its big or small.

And if its such a small thing then its really not worth worrying about now its been removed.

Edited my previous post. Totally knew that you would respond with the slippery slope argument *sigh*

All I want for Christmas is a EQ server with classic/kunark/velious content without the blatantly stupid classic mechanics just for the sake of "classic". Keep target rings and con colors and hell even maps are fine by me. The quality of life improvements to EQ weren't what ruined it the content and PoK/heavy instancing is what ruined EQ for me. Not whether or not I had a map or could easily tell what con a mob was without hitting C. All these classic changes lately serve no real purpose and the amount of people that hate the changes outweighs the people that like them "cause classic brah!" by prolly ~500-1.
