Depends what you're hoping for really. This game is NOT EQ reskinned. I'm telling you now. But it's not a WoW clone. You guys that aren't so hopelessly salty may just like it.

Looked him up? Cyber stalking skills or he have a public profile. This is getting creepy. Itzena better watch out!

I admit I didn't really go so deep as to do the math. That may well be too steep. I just know I am dead tired of maxing out my progression in 1-2 months playing 4 days a week. My leveling curve isn't set in stone. There should be ways to get shit done faster. In EQOA it was fun to power level...

And not to mention, even in vanilla wow you could hit cap in a month.

So rush to max level so you can feel progress, then quit due to boredom and have nothing to do or get tired of the repetitive endgame. That's better how?

I still don't see where we disagree. I'm AGREEING with you. I just think there are a few mechanics that could be done away with. Namely week/month long mob camps for items, flagging etc. That's our only point of contention from what I can see, with my 3rd grade reading comprehension and all...dude.

What does Timmy care as long as he has fun leveling those 14 hours a week? His time restrictions obviously won't allow him to be on the bleeding edge of content anyways. So what's the gripe?

That category encompasses the people like me that can play long periods of time but not 12 hrs a day anymore as well as the folks who play even less. I only work 3 12s a week so I could put a good 4 days a week in. Won't be on the bleeding edge anymore but I don't expect the game to cater to my...

If you wanna talk mechanics or have something of substance to say, then be my guest. If you just wanna wax about EQ nostalgia and how superior it is, we've been doing that for the entire thread and every other thread. Contrary to your labels, I am not asking for a WoW version of EQ. We have that...

I think even vanilla wow was too fast. IMO, the hardcore people that play 12-18 hours a day should hit max in about 2-3months. The average joe 4-6 months. I'd like to have a lot of interesting content at all levels so ideally you don't get bored or you can see new areas on an alt.

Really? Guess you haven't been reading my posts. Whatever you say chief lol.

Well this is EQ Next. EQ2 didn't contain most of what you stated and its an EQ game too. This isn't EQ. Take your own advice and go shit up that thread. Edited to add: do we really need to list all the logistical nightmares back flagging and keying new members creates again for the 1000th...

Again we don't disagree. Me playing it will be the determining factor if I like the game.

I specifically mentioned having the tools to make grouping easy if you require it as the best and most efficient way of leveling. LFG tool is mandatory for any MMO IMO. In regards to leveling speed, I don't mind taking a 3-6 months to hit cap at a reasonable play level. Really, what is the...

I'm not claiming to have all the details on every aspect of the game. There is still stuff I want to know more of. It's just funny reading these broad statements and time tables from various posters theorycrafting on what is and isn't possible. Either they are full of shit, or my friends working...

I agree with some of the things Qwerty, Dumar, and Tad desire. I do think leveling should be slowed way down. Classes should be interdependent. Loot should matter and be more meaningful. Combat should be slower and more tactical (not EQ slow and fucking never like EQ2 whack a mole combat)...

See this is where I think you guys go overboard and take what these "neck beards" as you call them out of context. I think he understands we don't have 12 hours a day to play. That's all fine and good. But just because you don't have 12 hours to play doesn't mean the game should get easier...

Jesus Christ. Even PS2 people had keyboards on FFXI and EQOA. Now you're just knit picking.

The more I play online games the more I feel community as we knew it is dead. Your average online gamer is selfish, self centered, impatient with ADHD and acts like a shithead. It's not just wow anymore. It's a phenomenon I've witnessed in several games since my time in EQOA. It's only gotten...

Some of you guys are some salty, cynical bastards and I don't think anything will make you happy at this point.

Yeah I've read the bard TP song was supposed to be good. That's a bummer if true. I love me some support classes.

Seems to be time consuming more then anything. But storybricks software makes it pretty simple. Just a lot of npcs to program.

I'm rolling Conj or Arcanist on release. We will see how the Arcanist heals and support are. I like the THM but it is boring in the beginning. Ul'Dah is one nice looking zone though.

I know right lol

Are you serious? No contest what console to get. PS4 everyday and twice and Sundays. If Titanfall is coming out on PC its even a further no brainer.

I've never insulted you once. Yet here you are spitting venom all over the place. I even agreed with you on quite a few points. Maybe these guys are right. Whatever. /shrug

Just because a person disagrees with a point doesn't mean we are all chimps and you're some pillar of knowledge and wisdom. If you want to debate game design or a games merits fine. What you're doing here is just flat stupid. Full on Internet meltdown.

Stop shitting up this thread. Take it to your thread.

Kid? How cute. He called me a kid. I'm probably older than you...

Mythri Jenkins online now looking for linkshell invite

EQ2 handled that pretty good. Dungeons broke off and created a 2nd instance after like 50-100 folks were in the zone. That seemed to help.

But again, when your server is a ghost town and you've invested all that time in your character, what's your solution?

If leveling is slowed way down which I hope it is, what do you expect players that put tons of time in on their character on a dead server to do? Reroll??

If server sizes are capped, they should do like rift and offer free transfers once a week or something just in case yours becomes desolate.

What's a good number to cap servers at that won't leave the population decimated in 6 months? And for the record, I don't like the use of over instancing anymore than you do. I hate the mcdungeons too. I'm saying if the answer is so easy, why hasn't anyone figured it out?

Dozens of camps x 6 players per group x 200k people on a server. Hmm something isn't adding up here.

Not gonna get many PVE players in your game... Never mind the inherent imbalances that exist in a good MMO with unique classes. Yeah...pass.

So what then...people should get on the camp list and play when the people that have 18 hours a day say they can? I understand the need to have a world full of people, but allowing others to impede another players progress is a recipe for a ghost town. The only exception being people blacklisted...

Do you ever reply to any post without snarky one liners?

Sounds like EQ2 as well tbh with the exception of Nizara zone. With worse whack a mole combat to boot.
