What keeps me from trying p2002? Another freaking set of accounts/passwords. Its very annoying to keep track of all this crap without writing it down.

Very dumb. But password security is important. And I don't know who to trust.

I would rather the whole login server be hosted by the main eqemu project.

>admits to not knowing enough about it to have an opinion. states hes staying neutral

> has an opinion, isnt neutral


if you dont want to try it, haynar, dont try it. but it seems like your motives in this thread are quite different from simply stating that you dont want to play.

i've been pretty enthralled with the raiding environment on p2002 in contrast to the weird set of hoops and hurdles that currently makes up the p99 raid scene. no 16 hour poopsocks, no waiting hours upon hours for a ten second encounter and nobody even has to sit there on the torture rack tracking a damn thing

planes are cleared piece by piece rather than being AOE'd and trivialized, vox and naggy actually feel like powerful dragons that you actually need a large group for, etc.

the population is as small as they come right now, but what numbers are there have already formed a strong bond with one another.

the aforementioned has led to a rather absent economy and it's not uncommon for a black silk sash to just be handed to a new player rather than held over them and peddled at a price they'll only afford when they no longer need it.

boxing is somewhat of a necessity due to the lower numbers as well. you'll hardly encounter anyone else while leveling, but that might not necessarily be a bad thing. the game turns into a sort of single player party RPG, which was exciting for me. . i've never tried boxing before playing here, but i quickly became an enthusiast of it

there are many personalities in the p99 blue top-end that i will miss, but in the end, i will never in my life wait again for a sixteen hour possibility at pixels.

Funny you say that. Immediately after A&H showed themselves the door, complaints of mod/GM flexing literally disappeared overnight.

Makes you question who the real problem was. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I would love to play on p2002, but just like the new progression server HATE the idea of playing for a few months of original, then a few more months of Kunark. They are fun but P99 has drained me of any desire to be stuck in either of them any longer [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

I agree having a shared loginserver would be nice if possible [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] . As stated in this thread & elsewhere the rulesets of both servers (ffa vs. rotation) are enough to keep both maintaining a pop in the presence of one another.

In all fairness I played both and have had fun, but then again as a casual on both who hasn't raided on either at this time I have felt no effect of these rules.

What's the timeline for expansions like? For example: 3 months per or is it goal-based?
