Complaining about instanced and nerfed TLP servers is like complaining polio used to much more serious disease before they discovered the vaccine.

instancing was the best possible solution to an increasingly (vis: Moore's Law) toxic server culture ww. EQ2 tried to solve this problem with instances + contested. It actually worked as long as there were 12+ servers worth of players.

Luclin Models: Optional. Old models work just fine on Phinigel.

Instancing: One of the biggest reasons Phinigel isn't a P99-esque shitshow

False XP Rates: According to whom? What are the "correct" XP rates? You're aware they aren't attempting to recreate 1999-2004 in every aspect right? Are you also aware people playing on Phinigel know full-well that it's not intended to be "classic" and don't care that it isn't? You don't seem to be aware of that.

Cash Shop: Full of cosmetic bullshit and XP potions. Nobody but you cares.

New server incoming: You mean like the Discord/Recycle server P99 players have been wanting for years and will never get? Yeah it really sucks having developers release new things that people want. I should come back to P99 where they don't do that and just let ppl raid the same stale content for 5 years with disgusting rulesets promoting poopsocking and absurd levels of neckbeard behavior.

Sure sounds like I "lost" alright.
You never played classic EQ and experienced classic xp rates? Saying "prove it" doesn't mean Daybreak have it right, they don't. I don't remember getting 15 AAs an hour (as reported here), for example.

Sorry you're mad about the new server. Just because one hasn't turned up here yet isn't a counterargument to your tinpot EQ Lite server being out of date and old news. Daybreak cordially invites you to get your wallet out again and join the new party (which will also be out of date by this time next year in the sense that they'll release a v2 of it).

Most of all, instancing isn't classic. Freeport and other various updated zones aren't classic. Playable frogloks aren't classic (and the models are terrible, no turning those off!), your "vend-a-raid boss" raid system isn't classic... in fact there's not much there for nostalgia at all, is there?

I'll be here on Project 1999 experiencing classic EQ for as long as it's available. Great times I've had, am having and will continue to have [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] <3

all your bitching on these forums isn't classic. look at your post count. if you stayed online long enough on dial up to accumulate them posts your phone bill would of been a large sum greater than or equal to the amount that is spent playing on day break servers.

consider the pizza you eat now versus the pizza you ate in 1999. none of the ingredients come from the same source. you can never have that classic pizza hut delivery while getting lost in rivervale.

if your playing the game on anything over pentium 2 it's already not classic. just throw your keyboard in the garbage now and start streaming overwatch.

I'm not apologizing on a forum for having the right opinion. Also my post count doesn't reflect RNF. That's 15k of posts helping people out with a variety of things or contributing to the community we have here <3

Thats an interestingly awful analogy and set of conclusions you just jumped to there pal

So how long are you going to stay on Phinny for? At what point will it be "too low" of a population to be worth continuing on? Jumping to Agnarr (and the next one, and the next one) is probably the way to go [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So you made 15-20 AA's per hour during the original Luclin/PoP? No, no you didn't. Nobody did.
