Why does this angry nerd keep talking about how he can code Nek 100% classic in 1/2 an hour with his hands tied behind his back?

If you can do that then make your own server. It's pretty easy to talk big on the internet.

I look at it this way, sure there are differences, one may be more polished than the other.

There are a bunch of people who want to play on a new server, from the start. Being a player who started on P99 years after it was already up and going and R99 at launch (not being a big pvp fan though).

I wanted something that was new, where everyone was new and there were no twinks. The genuine experience. Does Sleeper have it.. for now, yes, are there bugs, yes.

If P99 were to release another server call it Green for namesake. I think that the population would drift back over because we know what kind of hard work has been put in on this side.

but like others have said, people socking waiting for spawns, constant bickering, gm favoring has been pretty lame, even from someone who has only played a handful of hours on either server.

Just my 2cp.

I always thought P99 should release a casual type server (green works perfect), that allows non-competitive access to raid content. There is no doubt a large base of players that would just like to experience EQ content without all the drama and BS (although player competition is a different experience and blue should not go away, it's level of competition is definitely not classic)

Even if they just make a P99 replica (late kunark for ease of keeping the server updated) and added a system like guild tokens from Sleeper, it would likely be successful and bring back some casual players that have left. It would allow those that still play and future players the access to the content/play-style of their choice/ability.

Set it in the future, with some kind of Time Chrono dude ("Very well mortals, I will bring you to the era of Lord Nagafen, ready yourselves!) that depops and spawns the raid target when something is handed in.

I'm sure it's been brought up before though.

Hell if they did this I'd easily give up my 40 hour a week WOW addiction and bring my old guild back with me. There are a ton of people from original Brell that are playing WoW and misc emulated games at the same time. Missing the old content. But until something like that happens, I'll invest a few hours in a new halfling cleric on Sleeper

For all those whinners, play it for a week before you diss it. Give it time and slowly bugs and other things will be fixed. So far its actually similar to what p99 was when it was first released, but xp more tune to how classic was on live which is the only difference. Even though kunark and velious in, will give the player base and the development team time to fine tune things as players slowly make there way into them.

This way its actually will eventually bypass p99 in terms of development , whilst p99 will still be tuning velious beta or whatever with only 1-3 developers whilst sleepers will have 150+ players developing the content as they make there way through it.

You are wrong and this is why I won't even attempt to play the Sleeper. I clearly remember making my first class in EQ back in April 1999 (on day one of EQ release) and playing him. He was a human mage. I remember those early levels. I know for a fact, that even completely naked, it didn't take me 9+ hours to make it halfway through level 5 (this is what another person claimed on their forums). In fact, I remember soloing 5-6 in just 2-3 hours or so, even back in 1999, which is what is like here.

This is a bad sign for me as it's a critical aspect of the game. I won't even bother with it until I hear better things of it and they fix this insanely slow experience rate.

You and I remember things pretty differently, I started in December of 99 and it took me about 4 days to reach level 10 as a mage. Then again I was doing more than just leveling, everything was so huge and there was so much too explore I think I spent one day going from Felwithe to Freeport and just exploring the cities. P99 seems pretty accurate to me but it's hard to say because 99 was a long time ago and so many games in between. Memory is a funny thing.

I will agree though that Sleeper does seem a might bit too slow, but I've heard it picks up past level 10 so I am going to stick it out.
