Project 2002 Plug

[khanable]

isn't p02 the shady one where gm's stole all the initial code or some shit?

and devs playing with guilds?

hard pass on this one

Against all odds p2002 prevails and keeps exceeding expectations. Slander won't kill us, neither will the same 5 people repeating that they won't play on the server, get over yourselves the world doesn't revolve around you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

PoP coming soon! Don't miss out

Good move: if you can't defend against the actual points people raised, you can always shoot the messenger(s).

Pretty sure it’s 75% of the people that play on p99 not 5 people. If you want your sever to exceed and be populated with people from here you will have to get your ducks in a row.

Neither will the same 3 'developers' on alt accounts on these forums, apparently, because with anonymous trolling it makes it look like there's more people for or against.

Or are you that conceited that you think you're smart in some way?

Serious yall should give it a shot. There are also a lot of people that Solo/Duo box. The community is friendly/helpful.

If you are looking for "competition" please do stay here though. Main reason I left p99 was my unwillingness to give up a social life for 3am batphones. Also the p99 camp claim lawyering was beyond anti fun. I've had exactly one instance of arguing over a camp on p2002 and it was worked out simply by talking to the guys GL and find out he was on some funky meds due to an illness.

Anywho hit up anyone in "Ding" (server leveling guild) for an invite and someone will certainly help you get started with some gear/spell money/ect.

I'm not sure what people are saying about population being too low. Peak hours is around ~150 players on ~330 accounts. Off hours dips to around 60/140. Generally leveling groups running for every level range past 20. People help with Epics and run Pug raids weekly. There are 5 major guilds Ding (Leveling), Tightanium (Euro), Unity/Brethren of Norrath (Raiding), Powerslave (no comment...) There are more than enough people to do content with 7 days a week. There is also an XP incentive to invite Single/Duo players. It's nice to simply be able to put a few friends together and complete your epics without having to pay some guy sitting with 5,000,000 pp in tunnel for the privilege to do so. Or killing Lodi for your Eyepatch of Plunder without a 3 day caffine guzzling camp. Or hell actually seeing a dragon alive for more than 10 minutes. Or mobs actually alive in the planes.

My experience with p99 was pretty much UGuk, LGuk, Seb... pay some guy for MQ's... refuse to join some guild that wanted a blood sample and my first born... get bored.. look for something else to do. I remember trying to convince a friend to play p99.. and literally couldn't come up with a single interesting story to tell about it. "Well umm you grind a lot.... so you can sit in tunnel a lot.. to buy stuff that drops from mobs that are never alive because they are perma camped... then you errm... grind some more?"

Sure p2002 ain't for everyone.. but if you understand where I'm coming from I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Hell most of the server is ex p99 players. Including one of the GM's... (cough)

how much does soros pay you to shill this?

Reasons to not play p2002. Boxing. Fin.

[Nagoya]

Boxing and instances killed Everquest once, it's interesting to see emulator servers reproducing exactly that a mere 20 years after o_o scary when you think about IRL wars and genocides and shit, people learn nothing from history... We all understand the pros of boxing and instances, everyone on p99 has at least once thought "hey you know what, boxing/instancing would actually solve my <current problem>!" - but the flipside to that medal is server death, and we all know that too. So no thanks please go back to your cave.

No boxing.
No instances.

PS: it's 2018, we know how to use google if we ever need to look for a new server to play on. no need to come here with your constant propaganda.

It's actually working though. I guild invite an average of 2-3 ex p99 players every week personally, of which half generally stay around. All of them list similar complaints as I had.

Simply put if you love everything about p99, I'm literally not talking to you. I'm talking to the guys that while they enjoy it.. it doesn't quite fit them.

I "like" p99. It was "close" to what I was looking for. My main complaints with live being Cashshop/Mercs/Silly math inflation.

However I was always a fan of boxing (used to 5 box elem shammies in WoW AV for example, as well as 8box a DAoC AoE group.) I also really enjoyed AA's and Luclin was my favorite xpac.
