Yeah they are literally looking for nothing more than a slightly-better-than intern. No serious programmer will work for that little, and especially not in California where that won't even pay rent.

I honestly believe that its time for Everquest to make a major change to the game client in order to make it sustainable as a MMORPG going in to the next decade. There is no getting around the fact that Everquest is designed around the concept of playing as a group. It worked absolutely...

This is precisely why my brother and I intend to play MnM as casuals rather than end game raiders. We look at this as our last EQ-like experience we will ever have, so why treat it like a second job. Also, I just have to point out that as I have tried to make myself go back to EQ and just...

Oh but man that stick with music notes coming off of it... so amazing... I bet that took like more than a minute to make! LOL... omg That being said, this level 115 heroic character thing you can get for free, does that work on a persona you already have?

Update 47.1 out today

You're going to take on the role of shit ass healer are you? LOL

I haven't gotten to test the new changes, but from what I hear, Wardens got a nice boost to damage, Guardians got a weird update, and Hunters lost a some DPS. No idea what that all equates to in game... your mileage may vary. Excited to get in and try out the new raid this weekend.

Someone hit me up if you get a friend code and don't have any friends LOL.

Yeah I can see that.

You bring up some really good points. There's been a metric ton of failed MMORPGs over the years. Surely there is at least one of them that a whale could purchase the rights to just to have the art assets, animations, sfx, etc to use in an open source MMORPG project. I get not using someone...

Grok kept on giving me fits about using up questions due to not being logged in, so ended up doing more questions to Chatgpt. I asked Chatgpt to breakdown gear progression for level 80+. Not gonna lie. Kinda impressed with what I got. Question is... is this accurate? Anybody that actually...

So, I asked Grok to elaborate on gear and augment upgrades...

Thing I am noting is that it doesn't seem to mention when you need to focus on gear or augment upgrades as you level up past 70. It's like it doesn't think that's a necessary thing.

Not gonna lie. I prefer the bulleted reply from ChatGpt over Grok.

I asked AI the following...

Ok, so my brother and I are DUOing (with mercs) on the Mischief server again. Not looking to do raids or anything for a very, very long time. Our intentions are to just slowly play the game casually. Obviously with a shit ton of content between us and current end game, we're in no hurry at...

You can easily control the influx of gear while instancing by modifying the percentage drop rate of said item based on the number of instances currently open for that area. That way, the more instances open at any given time directly lowers the odds of getting the best gear to drop from that area.

AI has made insane progress since when I first started this thread. I would imagine that we are going to be much closer to this being a reality here soon. Seriously. I can't believe how far AI has come in such a short time. As far as the level of trust issue, in my personal opinion, the way...

I have to completely agree on this one. So many times in the past when I played EQ, I would login and literally have no where to play and just log back out. Every time, it lead me to leave the game. You have to have something to do when you login each time. There has to be something you can...

And, just to add to what I just said, I wanted to point out that its not like we are all against buying new games from big corporations. The only reason we are so dead set on looking to small startup offerings is because in the past decade, the big software corporations have moved away from...

I was just catching up on the messages, so forgive me if this reply is like 5 pages late LOL... damn you guys are fast. As for the discussion about the game and many games these days going in to Early Access to be able to raise money to complete the games, I believe this has to do with the...

This is something I've been saying for years. Why is everybody so damned dependent on the EQ client? After three decades of the genre existing, is there not one single option out there that people can use to build their game on that isn't someone else's private code? Seriously, are there no...

I can get behind that for sure. I kind of assumed that the idea of no instances would go the way of the dodo bird eventually IF there wasn't enough valid areas to play through the content. EQ was great, but it had an issue with having a small number of GOOD camps in any level range. I had...

I can agree with that. The only thing is that I would think that in the third decade of this genre's existence, gamers would know AND understand that it is physically impossible for any developer to keep ahead of the consumption curve simply due to how much work it takes to create content...

You're right. I misremembered it apparently. I didn't think they added raiding until later. I don't completely disagree with you here. I just think its nearly as "the world is ending" that the other ones are making it out to be. It's not like their core design sucks such massive dick that...

Exactly what I figured your response would be because I didn't agree with you. You see, I can understand and debate with you because you actually try to argue the points. There are others here that are more along the lines of "YOU SUCK DICK BECAUSE YOU DONT AGREE WITH ME". Ahem... Talking...

You've mentioned before that their current design is not "fun". I argue that FUN is a highly subjective term. It's not black and white like a few of you in this thread try to make it sound. Just because you only find the end-game with your set of friends fun does not mean that anything other...

Man the level of doom sayers in here is intense. I didn't get a chance to play this weekend, but from what I played in the last playtest, I really liked the game. I sure hope the doom saying in here is just a lot of the usual haters and not actually something to be concerned about in the game...

Update 46.2 went live today...

My question is why wouldn't they just make certain servers specifically allow certain 3rd party software and be like, hey if you go to this server, you know what you are signing up for, so don't come complain to us? I mean, they know that the vast majority of their Live server players use...

I still don't understand why a game, that is quite literally the best game in the industry for boxing, does not embrace that fact and build in boxing support in to the client. It just baffles the mind. The game, even though it was clearly not designed to be played this way, is practically...

I was going to do Teek, but it doesn't allow mercenaries yet apparently. So, I am going to do Mischief. I was a little surprised though to see Mischief was not showing up as a HIGH population server though. Do people still play on Mischief, or has it gone the way of the dodo bird? Don't...

I'm going to have to try that!

I have heard a lot of people talk about that level range and how it feels a bit wonky in "what do I do next". It does pick up more later on and gets kind of back on rails. At that range, you are in a couple of quest packs called Where Dragons Dwell and Veils of Anduin. Leading up to that, you...

Any idea how much of this can be done on a Shaman soloing with a merc? I'm very seriously considering picking either a TLP that is far along or a Live server that I have not played on before, and starting 100% over from scratch on a Shaman just for shits and giggles.

Fixed.

Take this with a grain of salt because I don't actually play on a free to play account, so I don't know for a fact... But, as far as I know, there is a ton of free content in this game all the way from level 1 up to 95. How that breaks down to the areas in that free content that are actually...

Update 46.1 is LIVE today!
