    Please, NO IMAGES in posts! That thing is frelling up the whole thread. ::::14::

    New screenies, ooo. Good to be able to see all of these and get a feel for how the game's going to be. I can't wait until I can play it, to give it the true test. ::::31::

    Looking forward to EQ2... never played EQ1 so I have no preconceived ideas about how it will be. Looks good though image

  • knives22knives22 Member Posts: 375

    y'know the only badthing about eqII is that there are only 4 classes you can pick and there are 15 races! 15! it should be the other way around , =  I mean 4 classes... the fighter, scout, mage and something else is not really fun...I think it will be a bit boring.

    but the classes branch out... doesn't it total to like 48 or something?

    There are 4 classes with 3 subclasses that branch off to 2 classes for each subclass. you choose your main classes at lvl 5 I believe then specialize into one of the 3 subclasses at 10 or 15 then you choose your final specialization of the two choices for the subclass you have chosen at lvl 20. this comes to a grand total of 24 classes you can finally become. Also there are 16 races not 15! ::::35::

    I dont think this will be a game that lacks choices, im pretty sure it will be very diverse with very little *clones* (as in other mmorpg's).

    Trust me, you need not worry about the 4 classes, they branch off into 2 or 3 sub-classes, then those sub-classes branch off into 2 or 3 more sub classes, so I think you end up having like 40+ different classes or something, so no need to worry about the lack of character development :P.

    Back to the topic, wow, 260 screens. I'm going to have to take a look at that later on, that sure is a large amount of screenshots.

    The graphics don't look as detailed as those from E3.Mind you they are still great!

    Just wondering if thats how EQ2 looks like on low setting?

     Yes, those are run at lower specs for the machine they used. And i must admit, they still look very impressive.

    I think this game is going to be absolutley phenominal. I think eq is the best mmo ever made by farm hopefully eq 2 will fix those little things that can get annoying. I also like the way freeport is looking, very gloomy and corrupt because thats the way it should be because the city is filled with vagrants and militia, i;m so excited that i could pass out from hyper ventilating...... go eq 2 image

    I must be very lucky because i can't remember farming at ALL in EQ.Maybe i was just in a good guild is all.

    Even my epic went perfect.Got to first mob i had to pickpocket and he was there and got it on a few tries.Worst part of it was i was KoS in kaladim hehe.

    My second piece was from plane of hate which i got while with a raid party and we happened to pass the book i needed and viola it was there.

    Last mob dropped all i needed to finish it and the hard part was getting the 30 people recommended for it and we did it with 15 even hehe because i could not be bothered to start spamming people to come.

    Not saying there was no camping in EQ but it was far from a essential thing to do.The epic would have been the only quest i would have had to camp and with luck i did not at all.Rest of my gear was all thru raid.I mean why the heck would i go sit in lower guk for 3 days for a haste item when i would get a much better one on some raid.

    I think where EQ got it wrong was you have to be in a good organised guild to actually enjoy a lot of the game.In a good guild you raid places where very few dare or can enter so spawns were always up thus eliminating any need to camp.

    What EQ was not is solo friendly but personally i want some degree of that to go to EQ2.Hard mobs  and zone should be raid only!While ecperience should be possible to solo for all because LFG was an annoying thing in EQ.

    First time ive seen the ingame intereface, not bad. I like that they opted for a third person view too.
