Project 1999, Daybreak, and Velious

[Frudrura]

I don't think I would mind pay-to-play, I just wouldn't want any type of pay-to-win things.

guess ill try and cancel that vacation request...

some big news for p99.
congrats guys! thanks for all the time and effort you put into making this server good enough for Daybreak. wow.

however, I would be very sad if this leads to P99 becoming pay-to-play.

I'd pay a sub

This is cool news and great of Daybreak to be embracing the community in such a way. Goodwill towards fans/customers goes so far and I always enjoy watching companies that realize that.

Was there any stipulation either way around open sourcing the code powering P99? Or is the reverse true and they are maybe helping you out in ways that are awesome but that you can't talk about? IP rights are a sick fascination of mine, especially when it comes to code.

Without having any details, this "agreement" almost sounds more like DB saying "we really don't care about your little project, but if you do a release within 3 months of ours we will make life very difficult for you."

If they really feel that way... good. Let p99 live. and if DB wants p99 to delay some things... really its the only thing to be added then that it for p99, then let it be. DB has the power to shut this shit down instantly. I'm very happy with DB crumbs and scraps... But I can't seem to find the big bowl of EQ Next... Anyone seen it?

lol I went to that site first time this weekend, while trying to get Medieval Lords up and running on Win7. That game was mostly coded in French. Had to use google translator though.

*Refuses to kiss someones ass*

Dont you think people might see this as an attempted ploy to boost server numbers over the summer?

from what ive heard, numbers WERE dropping drastically, and now it's over populated. silly how that works... i wonder if there will be long term player blowback?

im not terribly upset.. raiding this summer is likely out of the question though... as theres little to no room in the raid rotation as is for smaller, new guilds.

I suppose grouping will be similarly affected.. 5 hours of lfg in KC with a zone pop of 50 people... WOOOOO!!! good times?
