I never really understood why they had to put in those unnecessary cockblocks. I mean the popspckers are gonna poopsock their way to victory no matter how many key and cockblock quests you throw at them, all it does is it hurts your bread and butter, the schlep core gamers.(Which I was one of...

Not sure, but i would venture like 8-24 hrs before the chips drop retail which are due in early March last time I heard.

Not bad for a true 8 core. Still waiting for the NDA to drop, then well know the real truth whether garbage or decent.

The hard zones didnt start until tier 2-3 anyway. I was doing PoD, PoJ too, lol. Yeah, i think even on Phinny, its a bit different than EQ live back in 2001. This is not the same code. There was many many passes along the years that made shit easier by leaps and bounds. Even the people you are...

Best time I had was on a obscure emu server. Finally got to see all those places and truly explore them one by one from top to bottom. 4 box crew, all mobs had 1/2 hp all PHs were gone and he had teleporters set up that let you TP right into the dungeons. sounds like cake, right? Well maybe...

If i remember correctly EQII was also in play before WoW beta. So it was a double hit for EQ. Not only did they release EQII which drove many people away because EQII was also 150% less brutal than EQ ever was, then the WoW beta hit and drew away the rest, save the diehards that probably still...

Not so much during vanilla, but yeah after Kunark and especially Velious that shit didnt matter at all. People were rolling Ogre and Troll enchanters and shit (kidding)

The only ones making mmos now are the asians, they have that shit down to a production line. Maybe a few kickstarter things like this one is all thats left.

Its just funny how far neckbeards will go for some of this shit, considering neked corpses rot in like what? 3-4 hours? Thats some massive dedication there. also, there is no test servers for progression, as far as I know there is only one test and the test is for live. I guess they could make one?

LOL, so bank corpses, ding 65 within 20 min of PoP opening, finish all raids first 2 days, then farm them every 6 days and AA grind for 8 or 12 weeks, however long it is. How fun. While producer says Its ok this time to bank corpses and pretty much bypass content because they didnt give enough...

So they never fixed the shitty unresponsive interface because it was all tied to animations issue?

Except its not minecraft, its a legit mmo. Shit to grind, shit to level etc... etc....

A couple of days ago i ventured down into the bowels of my basement to see my 15 yr old plaing something new on his xboner. I asked what it was and he said Trove, mmorpg. So its not dead genre yet if they can get 15 yr olds to play. Then i told him he should play a real mmorpg. Trove | A Voxel...

I hear they really started to crack own on that shit over the past few months. There were forums out there like "red" that you could buy shit, but most of the sellers have vanished in the last few months, probably because they got the ban.

How many times can you do this vanilla-PoP progression before you start pulling your hair out. I mean, yeah, I get it, it was good, nostalgic, but at some point this just seems like some of these peeps need their heads checked, fucking ground hog day. Same with P99 players that are now stuck in...

Yeah I tried Phinny for a few days in dec and just could not stomach the slow ass exp rate and the shitty 1-20 game where youre lacking severely the skills and spells and no fucking gear. Also you cannot box on Phinny unless its a true 2nd box, as in 2nd computer, lol. This is still better IMO...

Yeah thats essentially what ive been doing with shaman. But I have my SK with 1hs and shield using the defensive stance AA. Never even tried a 2hander with him sine he got his 1.0 epic, lol. Im going to have to try it. Dont get me wrong though, on a mamed or boss when i have time to dot it up...

I got sk, shaman, ranger. 2 dps casters and ine cleric merc. I had one caster and one rogue merc, but I found the rogue merc died alot when multiples were pulled and I get way better TTK with 2 casters. I like the ranger for set and forget dps, outdoor calms, ghetto root mez, even vineleash for...

You dont need any of that. Just make a mound of lump in your komodo, place 3-4 cotton balls soaked with alcohol and the stuff is ready in 5 min. But do what you want bro, just relaying some infos. for slow smoking at like 225-250F you want the charcoal to burn slow from top down. so in essence...

Quick and fast burn and no fuss no mess. some guy at home depot told me about this and I tried it and never looked back. Also no chemicals some of that shit is soaked in. like starter fluid. Might not be important for grilling but it is for smoking shit for long time as not to impart any off...

Use good lump coal. And use a few cotton balls soaked with alcohol to get it started. Keep it at a low air setting because once that shit gets out of control temp wise, its hard to bring back down. Its always easier to adjust up rather than down. Buy yourself a nice thermometer. I have one that...

Just seeing thar rolling combat text window brings back mrmories. Looks like same diku mud shit. Nice.

Wasnt that the December 3 hour stream? If so, yeah shit looks tight for alpha. as long as he keeps some of his brad ideas out of the game, like asinine down time, shitty corpse runs, and the like.

Well if you consider quality 200-300 mind numbing boring ass quests,2-3 on rails dungeons consisting of 2 corridors and 2-3 raids that are farmed for 2 yrs quality, well, obviously we differ in what we call quality. Look I get WoW is a quality game, no doubt about it, just not my cup of tea. The...

But blizz takes 2 fucking years to release an expansion, EQ had 1 every 9 months. Yeah some of that shit was not finished, tuned, but content is god in MMRPGs especially PvE ones. AND on top of it all, most EQ expansions did not make old ones obsolete, a duble whammy for blizzard, when no one...

Sadly im still hoping they shit this thing out. In the day of wow and 10000 wow clones form india, taiwan and other such places, Im willing to give this a shot.

I worked there when I was 15, back in the late 80s. Back when they made shit fresh, almost to every order. Then later in the 90s they added storage bins to the operation, like Burger King had. So they cooked the meat and placed it in a warming tray, this is why shit tastes like cardboard now.

That was later on in EQ. Back in classic-pop era those pets were squishy as fuck. Only later did they give them many many passes of power throughout the years.Then on top of it all they nerfed the way exp was gained back in like late 2001, so yo had to do 1/2 the damage to a mob to get full exp...

Yeah all that shit you talk about is called progression, yeah it happened in EQ.

EQ was never hard. It was tedious and dangerous at low levels until you established a network. Once you were lv 50+ and had a network of buddies it was easymode, yet still tedious as hell. Gameplay mechanics were basic tank and spank for almost everything, with a cleric rotation and as much...

Klipsch has some. 2.1 good and loud, mike an headphone jack.

I make about 90K and the wife which recently went back to work part time adds in about 10-20K more per year. And this is comfortable for us here in Detroit suburbs. Not rich, but definitely not poor either. Pretty much debt free except house, Have a nice 2K sq ft ranch in nice neighborhod, have...

Its about fucking time, it only took them a decade to finally utilize HT, lol

I agree there. At least Daybreak is not going after the emu community for Everquest, hty kind of said good job and left the shit alone and while P99 was a shit show of cash for items sales and shit, GMs taking shit off banned characters and selling the stuff for RM..etc. I gues they locked that...

Yeah for sure but where to spend the cash for an upgrade? Im willing to bet that a 1070 will be way better upgrade to his gaming than a proc. Unless you want to go hog wild and drop $800-$1k for the whole thing. I would wait for the next jump intel anyways. Supposedly from what i read the next...

The problem is that you just hit a place where yove basically finished everything. I played on a server like this VoG, took 4 toons leveled them up strictly through dungeons, geared them up as best as I could, etc.Veksar, Sebilis, Shassera, etc. then you just hit a dead end. PoP was the next...

well the whole quest system was broke and fucked. Trying to type certain phrases to have the NPC advance the quest line? Or items that would drop whch were labled no-drop so you knew they were quest items, but you had to look that up in Allakhazams encyclopedia what quest it was for. Wow had...

LOL as soon as POP went live Luclin was deader than dead. Hardly anyone went there save Paludial Caverns which was the new exp hot spot for lv 5-25, that and maybe some high end raids.

Yeah I heard that recently Daybreak went through the item database and made a change to some 50K+ quest items that didnt have a quest tag on them. Basically fixing most of the broken quests in EQ that were broken since day one.

You could not do crawling in EQ anyways because of the level disparity between mobs. Most dungeons had a level range of 10, even 20+ levels between the entrance and the bowels. Some even having raid encounters at the bottom. And while im sure the original intent was to be crawled through...
