12k on servers seems a bit high. if shawn reads this, reach out if you want, i can offer a primary and colo datacenter services for server hosting. not sure what you do, but those costs look like by compute and or egress. a lot of smaller private cloud data centers will just do flat costs and i...

honestly i just dont believe them ever releasing the UE5 client. imo it's a fraud... they've simply loaded wow assets in UE5 and dropped in some default cams/controls. none of their videos (year+ since announcement) have gameplay footage. the screenshots they show with no UI elements look...

look at the poors linking android only apps

isnt twow in the middle of trying to add a UE5 client wrapper on top of the official client they use? maybe blizzy wants that

I think the majority of people here can recognize time sinks quickly; maybe it's a trait of someone playing early MMOs. However, think about the people who'll spend 1,000+ hours just chopping down trees and smashing rocks on a survival game.

idk about all that other stuff you're saying but i played on a classless server made by secrets prior to THJ existing. i would say yes, THJ's 3 class system is a direct copy of the classless idea - most likely uses the same type of client mod strategies (aka everyone is a bard).

its so weird too because all they had to do was make the f9x2 camera lock on z-axis and it woulda been almost same as mouse wheel zoom... you can tell by the devs not doing that simple fix to f9x2 cam, they themselves didn't realize their playerbase uses it (or what was really the case; there...

yea you're right, which is funny because the eqemu codebase is atrocious... i guess it's kind of impressive how it was built over the years, large parts by random people that have come and gone. (talking pre akkadius)... always wish i could see the real server source

i cant remember when proper mouse wheel zoom came to EQ, but it was not PoP era nor before. pretty easy to confirm that since eqmac's PC client (which contains LDON files) cannot mouse wheel. i 100% doubt anyone actually used the real f9x2+zoom-out 3rd person cam more than a few times to target...

actual mouse wheel zoom didnt come out until like GoD... that fucky f9 shit + zoom out (which affected z-axis) definitely wasn't the main choice for most people, maybe for tanks. so im gonna say sebilis designed for 3rd person is fake news

i think that was just the perceived limit of eqemu at the time of that doc, since it took them like 10 years to go from OoW to DoN

played eq for 20 years, im this target market... i agree with the dudes saying the tedious systems just wont work like they think in 2025. anyways, whatever those things are will be easily hackable since this is unity. just like MQ2 and SEQ for EQ but even easier since core engine structs will...

^ lol found the DBG rat

100% spent my first year of EQ without any maps (kunark era)... but thats because i was like 11 and didnt even think to look them up online

im just saying eqemu as its own is infringement, by law; not at all a way to win this suit... i dont think that holds any water in the DPG vs THJ suit. id imagine the client side injection mods are the biggest deal (besides the EoM/donations). Those mods may be private github repos and thus...
