Does /clearchat fix it? I've always wondered how EQ doesn't just get destroyed by lag from combat spam. The combat spam in live raids is just, immense. And I don't trust EQ to handle large amounts of text well.

There's definitely something missing in the experience in playing now vs the first week of release, but it's not that big of a deal really. So many people put off playing Aradune for the first couple weeks that there are plenty of people to group with. From the current state of Aradune, do...

Velocity being too high while zoning disconnecting you is complete madness. I can't imagine what kind of cornholery code you need to do that.

At this point me and my old man are talking about whether we want to only play super early in the morning before work, I've been putting off playing because of how bad this is but I don't know if it's going to get better, lol

Not seeing a lot of familiar names in the That's EQ Baby discord. Who at FoH is in there that can vouch for my level 20 ass so I can get some guild chat to relieve me of my loneliness?

I remember liking the game and some of the concepts but put it down when I got to mid-level and everything was stupid easy to where I did the last few zones naked. Wouldn't mind a replay if they solve that.

Could be they're messing with stuff or increased the queue sizes, but I think this is the result of the population not hanging out AFK all the time. Now most players are active and the servers can't cut it.

Really bizarre, I've never heard of anyone having this problem.

Thanks. That's EQ Baby requires level 40+ to apply, been avoiding Aradune while the queues were high so I'm still level 19. Won't take long to get to 40 though.

Feeling lonely on Aradune, what's a good, large guild that doesn't expect everyone in the guild to raid but still has a raid force?

Do you have another PC or another IP address (ex: cell phone hot spot) you can try using to log into your account?

Was hoping the zone lag from yesterday would be gone, guess not lol

Got 70m queue last night at 8pm est. It's dying down for sure, hopefully it'll be mostly gone by next Monday.

Would he interesting to do a group of people doing permadeath/self found.

https://thelastdriverlicenseholder.com/2020/05/31/tesla-model-3-plows-into-overturned-truck/ can't even blame the lack of lidar on this one. Radar should have been SCREAMING during this entire drive in.

With how easy it is to level it seems like it'd be pretty easy to play alts, especially if you picked one of a few classes that can effectively power-level and are willing to multi-box in some way. I'm pretty happy with enc/cle and don't plan on leveling an alt in classic but I can see myself...

Probably rose-tinted glasses but it felt like back in 1999 you'd be in a zone for days or weeks, getting to become an expert at the zone and knew everyone who was a regular there. Now you pop into a decent group in a zone, blow up every mob near you and before you even get a feel for the mob...

Got to 15 in two good play sessions so far inbetween queues and RL, having a ton of fun. Me (enc/cle) and my dad (nec) can breeze through the content easily enough in our trash-gear and getting random PUGs brings some spontaneity to it. We got in with a trio of really terrible players earlier...

So you've done this enough that you're only interested in the level 50 rush and then do something else, what would your ideal TLP ruleset be that would make you interested in continuing to play hardcore after hitting 50?

Not sure, it's been a while but i never found a reliable way to get arbitrary orcs. Both playthroughs i pretty much just used whatever orcs i found.

Mystery solved. My dad logged in the account to cycle the bazaar mule on another server :D

Put both my characters into the queue within a few seconds of eachother about 4 hours ago. My cleric got in 5+ minutes ago, still waiting on the enchanter. Hard to imagine that the queue system would have that kind of asymmetry, but with a queue time that'll take me 4 hours or whatever...

Longest queues I ever saw for a game was Archeage on launch and 32 hours. In an Archeage launch there is a literal land-grab where you had to acquire a house and place it. It was hilarious though, people would come home and see the queue and realize they wouldn't be able to log in for two...

This timing makes sense. Sometimes creating a coherent queue or similar system take 15 minutes to write, an hour to integrate and a few hours to test. Then creating the progress bar to show to players goes through the UI guy but they're backed up because the ice texture doesn't work quite right...

I'm on Team Modal. Leave the dialog up. I don't trust clicking OK.

No queue at 7:30AM on a Saturday.

how you gonna get suspended for training?? sounds like bullshit enforcement to me. 184m queue when I logged off tonight at 10PM EST. I'm really hoping that queue is some artificial bullshit they release a bit after the weekend or something. The server is pretty lively but it's not THAT lively.

I want to make my life's mission to group with him and get all of our characters deleted so I can reroll and take back my name.

He didn't respond to my tell yesterday. He's level 6 and I'm still level 1, so I guess he's winning the race :D

take it easy, bud, we're all in leveling gear here

I think they fucked over the servers earlier this week and reduced the global player cap to very few people.

First thing I'd do every shift if I was the Karen GM is to delete all the boxing/botting reports without looking at them. A GM just needs to port around to all the high-value spots and hit people, there are so few spots to police and so few players that it's just not that hard.

No, he's not six-boxing. But him getting warned is hilarious.

where we go one we get queue'd cued

Nah, it's a pretty common name. I'm not that upset since I don't even have it on Bristlebane since it got merged. Ironically the first character named Tuco I ever made was ON Bristlebane, and it's been my gaming name on dozens (hundreds?) of games over the last twenty years, but I don't have it...

It couldn't POSSIBLY be this bad everytime?!?

I can't log in because of queues, but people are saying there's about 300 people on the server right now. hahahahaha

I'm guessing that the person who did the UX for this queue also did the queueing system and the database code for the last few years. So, to answer your question, no.
