EverQuest Next: Landmark

[Nuggie]

A big problem I've noticed thus far is the areas are so crowded that new players don't have a place to claim. Meaning they can't make crafting tools. Like the table saw. So the can't advance harvesting tools unless they find another players table saw. with most claims sitting empty it's not easy to find.

Also, if you dig a deep hole and fill in around yourself and try to move you start falling through the world. They have a catch that transports you to the surface. Hell of a transportation exploit if you want to travel for the bottom of the subterranean areas to the surface real fast.

Yeah, it is an issue. They are installing a new server now, and you can see it partially up on the Nexus spires.

And the dropping thing is in case you fall through the voxels into oblivion. But yeah, it's an issue. I believe it's on the list of things they are working on.

I'd like to extend you and anyone on here to come to Courage-Inlet (Tier 2) (whenever courge is up) if you go south west of the portal there is a valley that looks like a little backwards C and inside of it is a hole, inside the hole is almost every forge and crafting table. Right now we're working on Tier 4, but you should be able to get started if you'd like. I know it isn't a permanent fix, and it's too bad we cannot give you coordinates instead of stupid directions, but I promise it is close to the portal (just over a mountain) and we wouldn't mind people using our little crafting hole [You must be logged in to view images.

Honestly, the passion and the commitment of the team, the new style of gameplay with a Minecraft esque world, the really high chance of role play and team building to come from crafting things, the supposedly deep specialization program that they haven't quite revealed yet and the fact that a lot of it will be crowdsourced... EverQuest Next the actual MMO is going to be batshit crazy, and Blizzard was right to put Titan off a while until they can copy and do better what Sony is trying to do.

Courage-Inlet also has the dude's workshop on the side of the mountain near the spires with every crafting machine around. Seems Courage-Inlet is the place to be.

I appreciate that offer. I'll take you up on it at some point in the near future. I'm jumping around a lot trying to find ways to crash the game and other bugs atm. Not working on advancing too much since we're going to get wiped. Going to focus on the low end. If I get that all wrapped up i'll go higher. [You must be logged in to view images.

I gave Landmark a second try now that i'm getting over the whole initial shock of it not being EverQuest.

I have to say what *is* there is slowly starting to impress me. The crafting progression and randomly generated items from crafting is kind of cool. Each item has a color, and those colors have stat ranges. So, you can craft a legendary pickaxe that has randomized stats. Not every pick is created equally. You have a min/max range on these crafted items. And then you have the minecraft minigame on top of pick progression.

I don't think I gave this game a fair enough shot. I think i'll keep playing into it to see where it goes. I never doubted it had potential, it's just kind of slow to impress me like a new Nine Inch Nails album. At first, you're like, 'wtf is reznor doing?' then you're like 'oh this is kind of cool' and then you listen to it on repeat for the rest of the day.

Kind of like that.

Yeah this game is definitely the shell for something a lot bigger too. I am pretty excited to see where Next takes us.

What's Reznor doing? Oh, just being a pretentious dick as usual. Some NIN is alright, but sonofabitch he is insufferable.

You should see the number of people waiting to bumrush Serenity, it's going to look like Courage and Lib 30 mins after it drops
