Orange Server
I'm just curious if there would any demand for a new type of P99 server I'm calling the orange server.
This is a server that's classic but in an entirely new way. The idea here is that a brand new server gets released at the very end of the P99 timeline that the devs have carefully curated to bring forth green timeline for us. No manastone or circlet of shadow or holgresh beads or locket of escape will ever drop on Orange, Nobody ever gets to bind at the firepots or farm seafuries before they get nerfed. Server launches with chardok revamp, kunark and velious all active. Iksar monks in competition with human monks. For giggles we still get a fresh set of accomplishments with first to level, first to kill, first to drop, but all played out with the final mechanics of how P99 ends up, just from day one. It might even launch with the sleeper considered slain, just to put certain items off-limits s too. Am I mad? | ||

I'm not so sure about having Kunark and Velious released on launch, but I've always thought that starting with not having all of the stuff that was eventually taken out/nerfed would be interesting.
You'd certainly lose a lot of people who's sole purpose in playing is lording items like that over the populace, though... not necessarily a bad thing. | ||

When I clicked the "kinda fun" button, I wasn't aware of your post. Now that I look it over, I'm identifying as, meh.
I have a friend who would come up with lots of ideas like this. he would sit and wax eloquent for quarter hours at a time with many of the things that would be cool. I'd listen for a while then start to daydream about something odd, like fishing, hiking, hunting. Soon he would smile and say something like "cool huh? They should do that." You could start a server like that. Go for it. | ||

OP's idea would be maybe nicer if it was just vanilla + Kunark for the full timeline too, launch epics after like a year then release Velious in the same time frame. Velious is super pointless when everyone's starting out fresh and is just too much power creep for the older worlds compared to early non-epic Kunark. | |||

Although I think it should just go to Shadows of Luclin, while Blue should stay Velious and Green should stay Kunark. But this would upset the content fiends I think. I am only concerned with preserving the quality of content that was while others are trying to cure their mental illness [You must be logged in to view images.

People would play on anything really, if they made 6 P99 servers I think it would just compound the player base rather than half it like people think it would. P99's draw is stability, persistence, reliance.. Players come and go and depend on P99 servers being there and they always are, nothing changes so drastically that causes people to leave for good. | |||

Yeah you're mad because your just described the blue server and the future green server.
Who cares if someone USED to get all the legacy stuff. So they're out there. Just play and you get that same experience you just described. A Kunark locked or better yet a Vanilla locked server with or without legacy items would be ideal. Cancelling everything that leads to level rushing and stupid legacy item rushing is also ideal. And the next server is going to be BROWN because its the second red server. hehh But seriously the last thing that is needed is another non pvp server that goes to velious or further. | ||

I’m so deep in blue that starting an entirely fresh race/class (non twink) sounds fun. I also like that it would be a fresh server as green does not interest me. I would probably play a race/class combo that I have little exp with such as Wizard, Necro or Warrior. Could always play that char while I hold a camp on blue waiting for mobs to respawn. Orange sounds kind of cool.

The ntov, vp, and st items should be in but be eternally unattainable.
Basically nothing more powerful than hate and fear 1.0 should be Killable. | ||
