How about losing the implication that there is 1 correct way to play EQ, and drop the snide remarks.

You're right, I apologize. I was trying to be funny, but reading it now, it didn't come across the way I intended. Good hunting!

Just another tidbit. I was able to confirm that at least as of August 9, 1999, neither Hate or Air were implemented yet in any form which means that both had to be released some time between August 9th and October 13th, 1999.

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/arch...pdate_0899.htm

August 9, 1999: .............. If anyone was at gencon and knows more about the new continent and zones, please e-mail me about it. I would like to add the continent to the zones section with as much advance information as I can. I have added the new Iskar race to the race section, though there is little know about them right now and what is known is subject to change. I have also added sections for the Plane of Hate and Plane of Air, both currently unimplemented zones.

Edit: not worth linking but I've seen at least a few places that mentions The battle of Bloody Kithicor happening on Halloween 1999 which would put it after the release of Solro... that doesn't seem right, does it??? Can anyone confirm or shoot down this?

Okay, so plane of Sky was introduced in January of 2000, 9 months after launch.

Patches from January 2000 - June 2000

Stand Out Occurrences:
- Plane of Sky is introduced (Jan.)
- Casters respawn with no mana after being killed by a player (Feb. 3)
- City of Paineel is introduced (Feb. 17)
- Erudites can now be Shadowknights (Feb. 17)
- Rogues get the Evade ability (Feb. 17)
- Deity-specific items are introduced (Apr. 10)
- Kerra Ridge and Splitpaw are revamped to higher level (Apr. 10)
- Kunark goes live with a new level cap of 60 (Apr. 21)
- Newbie guards get buffed to their current levels (May)
- The Hole is introduced (June 22)

-------------------
So this means that even though they mention changing the level of the Alter Plane: Sky spell on September 13, 1999, it didn't have anything to do with the actual launch of the zone. That leaves me with the following assumed release dates:


Temple of Solusek Ro: October 13th, 1999
Battle of Bloody Kithicor / Plane of Hate: October 31st, 1999 (estimate)
Plane of Sky: January, 2000
Kunark: March (or April), 2000
Ruins of Old Paineel (The Hole): June 22, 2000


If the server follows this time line we should be seeing the following:
(I rounded off to the month so in some cases it could fall on the month before or after based on the actual date)

Temple of Solusek Ro: early May, 2010
Plane of Hate: late May, 2010
Plane of Sky: August, 2010
Kunark: October, 2010
Ruins of Old Paineel (The Hole): January, 2011


Let me know if I missed anything

(EDIT: I have found conflicting information about Kunark being released in March of 2000 or April 2000, just an FYI)

Sounds good to me. Thanks gp for being the sleuth.

Great - so now people can stop speculating and accept they were wrong, and they can't change anything as far as the progression of the server goes. This is set to commence, NOW!

I still don't see where the devs have said, "We're following, selectively, the progression timeline the game originally took."

I only hear this coming from people's hopes and misguided dreams.

Releasing more content from the SAME ERA doesn't harm the noobs and people who can't level past 20 since day one.

Like I said though, if the content isn't ready to be released that is perfectly okay and I don't expect them to rush it at all. If it's sitting there for no logical reason then I am just at a loss for figuring out why.

Shitty players are always going to hate on the top tier. I've seen it in every mmo and it never gets any less amusing.

"go outside lol"
"get a life"
etc.

I say, instead, you stop dying 5-6 times a day leveling in fucktard zones like oasis with the worst ZEM possible. Essentially...L2P and stfu [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have some paint thinner if you want to find a way to shut yourself up.
