    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Yep. Quit EQ after hitting max level in Velious. Was raiding with the top guild on the server, but back then without that "ding" sound to look forward to I kind of lost interest. Then AA's came out and I was hooked again. But that was then. Was still young enough to not care about massive...

    Charge backs are fine as long as you don't abuse the process. What a CC company considers abuse I don't know.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Yep, but it's not just this game. As for boxers, didn't have many issues with them. Spent most of my early years in EQ just with one account and eventually knew most of the boxers on the server. They were cool for the most part, just playing the game the way they wanted. Same thing with all the...

    /shrug The PoP thing doesn't really matter to me, can't speak for the others. This thread is what got me rolling down memory lane, and the timing seemed right. The decade away helps put EQ in proper perspective. I've played a ton of mmo's since eq and some of them are fun but there are a lot of...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Had a lot of fun last night. The epic server fubar and all the salty tears were just like old times. Nostalgia overload, loved it. Didn't get much done in game. Made a bunch of name holder tunes, messed with my keys on my box system. Noticed one of my name holder toons was in Qeynos, where my...

    Probably the influx of tens of players for the new server, TENS!, overloaded it.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Yep. During my EQ days only played a SK and did that for years. Boxed a sham during the last year but my foot was already out the door. That was a decade ago. Since then I've become a mmo altaholic and a filthy casual. If I stick with this server then the 12 weeks is pretty good. Will give me a...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    DKP is the devil. Merit with priority for the main raid tanks is the way to go. Requires a very tight group and a leader who everyone trusts though. That was tough to find even during classic, probably next to impossible now.

    Low level zones on Ragefire aren't empty anymore. They were a few weeks ago. People getting ready I guess. I'm thinking Agnarr might break the internet.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Been playing on one of the EQ TLP servers lately, starting from scratch. It's been 10 years or so since I played EQ. Took me a bit to get use to dying all the time. EQ is easy, unless you forget about pathing, trains and just about everything else that modern QOL mmo's have eliminated. Being...

    What class and race are you playing?

    Sk, troll or ogre. Picked up a surface pro 4. If it works for eq without too many headaches then i'll probably box a de cleric.

    There is a post on the EQ forums by someone who has the Surface Pro 4 with i5 and 8gb. HD graphics 520. He runs 2 instances of EQ on it. Augur, one of the devs has a surface pro and likes it. Not sure how 515 stacks up to 520.

    MMO's are bringing in billions of dollars world wide, and the industry keeps growing. A big portion of that growth is in asia (China). The amount of options for modern gamers is staggering though. It isn't just WoW and a couple of others. With so many options, big whales like WoW are probably...

    Lifetime Raiders fan, live in San Diego now. Raider fans have been through this rodeo before (Los Angeles 80s - 90s). We travel well. Moving to Vegas sucks for Oakland, and most of us wish they could stay there but we are a loyal bunch. Vegas works. As for building stadiums in California, it...

    Damn this thread.. Going to check out one of the other current progression servers and see if the nostalgia is strong enough. Most likely wont be able to join the sock groups. Work, etc isn't that forgiving. Troll (master race) sk.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I don't know what Brad's vision is, haven't even looked it up. But if they go for the sub model and just reskin EQ with modern graphics and ui improvements that would be a winner... imho. Not a new opinion, but so what? The classic EQ servers seem to be very popular even now. Updating the...

    GoD was tough even on the bleeding edge at the time. And there were a ton of complaints, but every expansion had issues. PoP is the expansion that was the beginning of end for our guild. We moved to FFXI for 6 months or so and let other guilds take over the server. Then came back and crushed...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Black Desert and the other Asian grinders prove there is a market for longer games. And EQ was a huge grind. If Pantheon goes that route, that's fine. Never have the kind of time to be competetive again, but EQ was great for casuals too. The group game dungeon crawls in open zones were a lot of...

    Luclin had a lot of cool things about it. AA was a big deal and brought a lot of players back. But one of the downsides of Luclin was the intense key farming at the end game. Before Luclin on our server we had a bunch of guilds that competed at the top end, cock blocking and all that. I loved...

    The Best and Worst States in the Union: Many Metrics

    Very true, it even use to be a republican stronghold in the eighties and nineties. My comment about liberal tards was about the state in general. You could nuke the state government in Sacramento and the world would instantly be a better place.

    The Best and Worst States in the Union: Many Metrics

    I've lived in many of the western states, only visited the east coast a couple of times. I like all the western states really, if I had to chose one that I liked least it would probably be Colorado, the east half. Denver during my time there was a bit of a hole. The people there just didn't...

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    Amazon has boatloads of money. Make something half way interesting and it include the game in my prime membership, then it's a win imo. And Smed might be a good choice, I don't know. It's very hard to determine where the magic came from that created EQ. Brad was definitely a major part of that...

    Politics, civility, and you!

    Calling middle America "Racists", "Fly over country", "Nazi's", etc etc. Didn't tip the scales for Clinton. In fact, it seems to have had the opposite effect. Especially after eight years of that bs. Nixon called them the "Silent Majority". Most people don't change their minds when confronted...
