During Velious what ever the highest Flowing Thought item you had is what you got; it did not stack until Luclin and then it was up to 15 points of FT.

They didn't stack with themselves, you could have an ft1, ft2, ft3, and still get 6 extra per tick

New people will always be arriving on the server, and there will always be people who haven't completed all there is to do on Kunark. What is your point? We should never release it given that logic, or when you say "some people" are you just talking about yourself.

Its a great expansion, there's some really awesome content and I'm looking forward to it. But after we all delve in, what is there to look forward to afterwards? A server reset? Custom content? It won't be like it is now... "now" is good! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yep true, new players will always arrive...but if Kunark patches are sped up and done quickly now you'll probably see Velious during the summer drop-off. Alright for some, but most people will be enjoying the sun and doing other things. I'd say the best time to release Velious is when the server pop picks up afterwards. I can wait, I just don't see why people are so excited for something that's not going to be released next week.

I don't remember a shit ton of Kunark threads on the scale that the Velious ones have appeared...

[Itap]

Because SoV is a much better xpac over RoK? I bet the majority will agree

[Swish]

Not sure I'd agree there. No new playable race, level limit wasn't increased... it was just a playground for existing 20-25+ characters to enjoy. ToFS was very good as was spider-land.

Raid bosses were well thought out and a good new challenge... yet, it really lacked something I thought. I'll go further (and people will laugh, and that's fine)... Luclin with the Nexus/bazaar and its raid bosses was as good or better than Velious. New playable class that worked well with existing groups, a new race (granted not everyone liked the cats) and some more interesting zones compared to Velious. Put pixels aside and I think the content was just better in Luclin. There, I said it.

Thats because Kunark isn't nearly as awesome of an expansion as Velious is.

Really have to quote that from 10 months ago? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

We've been discussing it more thoroughly in other threads. http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=79881

Kunark wasn't 2+ years late. Kunark was designed as a temporary band-aid it only lasted 6 months on live. Even with epics.

[Hugmukk]

Kunark was released pretty close to schedule, where as velious is taking much longer. I think that is the reason for the influx of "OMG VELIOUS" threads. Personally velious was my favorite expansion.

Luclin was an awful expansion, the moon? Cats... Ehhhh. The planes effectively reduced interaction by 50% by adding port stones and the bazaar.

In P99's instance, people are looking forward to velious so guilds outside looking in can get some action.
