    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    The race to get into x place is always the goal which requires numbers and organization. Killing the mobs has always been a foregone conclusion once the requirements to enter has been met. There have been a few servers where this was pretty fun because there were equal parties racing. The way EQ...

    EQ TLP ramblings

    The biggest issue is they still have is there is no end game with these TLPs. I mean Selo still doesnt know whats going to happen with them. Are they just going to be the only live server with AOCs and Truebox still enabled? All the dead servers which will limp along for years just wasting space...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Everything i said in my post was factauly true. If it was scanning or not I said I did not know. My point was the lag issues started months before Aradune and coincided with the data center move in February.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    While this could be true I dont know. But the fuller story is that in the middle of Feb when they moved host Mangler started crashing every 24 to 48 hours. They let this happen for 6 weeks, server would start lagging then crash. It happened about 30 times over those 6 weeks before they finally...

    Doesnt really bode well for any new server releases being stable at all. We all remember how terrible Aradune was for over a month.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Not super surprising as in my numbers Mangler and Phini were close. People forget Phini had crazy slow exp which turned a lot of casuals off and a lot of the TLP things were not ironed out until late Agnarr. Mangler was about the perfect TLP server as to date. They would be best served to just...

    Phini was the first of the new TLPs and doesn't follow the same patterns of the newer servers.

    Its about the same price that krono was on Coirnav around this time and reflects the lack of popularity of the server.

    Hopefully the next servers are a Mangler and Selo clones and we can act like Karadune never happened.

    Server was a disaster for sure. Never had more than 400 people on it even at launch. Was down to an average of 35 people a night within 3 months.

    The only one thats even remotely arguable is Selos ranking. Because of the timeframe in months live vs the expansion releases. Maybe Aradune had more population day 1 trying to get in, thats possible but impossible to prove as they were not able to get in and general channels did not reflect...

    I have numbers for every expansion since Phini up to GOD on each server or like the new ones velious. I grouped Selo which started in luclin as being classic/kunark/velious combo. Its not perfect of course as selo was the exception server.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Guild numbers really dont matter. Server1 could have 10 guilds with 72 members each who cleared all content and server2 could have 4 guilds with 300 members each giving the false impression that server1 has more population. The only somewhat accurate way is to count people in general channels...

    I am not on Aradune as you could tell pretty early on it was going to be a garbage low pop server. It has the 2nd lowest population of the TLPs since phini at this point in the expansion releases only slightly higher than Coirnav.

    If you rob a bank with your finger and another guy robs it with a gun you both are doing something illegal. I find it funny how almost every time someone starts something like this it comes down to one RMTer got mad at another RMTer. Both are scumbags, one can admit it and the other is just...

    I have no idea as I dont play on Aradune. I am still on Mangler though I plan to switch to the next TLP if the ruleset is good.

    Who is worse the guys killing Tormax on Christmas probably for 30-50kr ($330 to $550) or the guy training them on Christmas who will get nothing either way.

    I dont mean graphics, anyone playing MMOs dont give a rip about graphics. Only that they are smooth. When I say terrible I just mean terrible in the general sense. Combat is stupid looking, everything just looks like Archeage or BDO. The owner of the company is known to be a scam artist and...

    The only real talent needed for playing eq these days in a large guild is being able to tolerate the boredom and stay at peak attention for the raid. Beyond that my 12 year old daughter who never played eq could top the dps chart with right gear.

    Not sure how much talent it takes to maximize either of these classes. Rogue is 3 button and any half retard can get the max out of them.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    They said after the last server that any new server would require an existing server to be merged to create room needed. It complicates things or atleast slows them down for sure though. I would love to see another 2x server launch one being a Mangler clone (minus the disabling of item...

    Most likely all the cash they raised is spent as it comes in. So those people making the ships are what is keeping the project going. Without that there would be no more money coming in and the scam would come crashing down.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Biggest problem Aradune faces is with the recent P99ers who came to the server at launch. They think that there should be a "line" and gms should enforce suspensions when someone hurts their feelings. Until they leave the server, and they will, Karadune will be a mini toxic p99 but in a carebear...

    They will drop until there is limited amount of seb picks then as people gear alts and such they will actually go back up in price a little.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Aradune has been a big disappointment so far. The terrible launch has really stunted the growth of the sever and defiantly has a lower pop than mangler was at this point. Maybe a clean kunark launch can help bring some back but right now its way behind mangler in terms of popularity and more on...

    I am fine with just 8 weeks per expansion across the board. Main issue is classic is just terrible after the initial rush.
  35. Elderan

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Classic is fun for about 2 weeks then a sharp decline and just unbearable the last month. Classic should never be more than 6 weeks. Classi 6 weeks Kunark 8 weeks Velious 12 weeks Luclin 8 weeks Pop 12 weeks (Lets be honest after pop no one cares) LDON 4 weeks GOD 8 weeks OOW 12 weeks

    Has SC actually gotten any large influxes of money from big time outside investors? If not then its very telling on how everyone with brains knows this is a scam.

    Lol if they really did no fixes to Aradune and there will still be a massive queue I dont know what to say at this point. Only hardcore people and farmers were in game the past few days. Most casuals were able to get in close to midnight and play for a short period.
