2 dudes on eqmac (same client ) who lead my old guild boxed 24 characters each, without mq2 (doesn't exist for mac). now imagine doing rallos zek with that client.

you guys just sound like a bunch of sweet 16 year olds who got a honda cake instead of a mercedes


edit btw this program i wrote eliminates the need for alt-tab http://www.takproject.net/forums/ind...-program.1647/

I tried p2002 for about 10 minutes, as Vanilla-PoP was hands down my favorite era. However, the lack of mouse scrolling to zoom out, and not being able to control the camera with my mouse was a deal breaker. Really kills the immersion, and I don't like playing this in first person.

Wait, isn't first person view more immersive? Unless you're one of those people who follow yourself around with a selfie stick everywhere, 3rd person view is quite the immersion-breaker.

I disagree. Immersion for me means relating to my character. I can't relate to my character in the world without seeing her.

I assume immersion is different for all of us, I just like killing shit. I don't relate to or pretend I am my character. First person took me a bit to get use to. I am loving p2002 but its not for everyone. P99 is great as well have a few 50+, I just like POP too much so had to flip servers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Have fun where you play, how you play [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

3rd person view sux..... its useful for battles and some other specific things but if u wanna get immersed first person s the way to go

egocentrism vs enviromental view...

obviously enviromental view will be much more imersive while egocentric view all u get s to wish to rush to ur final destination...not enjoyin the ride
