    why not roll on one of the standard, subscription based servers (like lucan or antonia) and then just get everything for 15 bones a month?  then stop whenever you want.

     

    (i give you this option instead of the gold sub because the sub on the "regular" servers are cheaper if i recall.)

    Want my advice? don't unlock ALL races, you don't need to! pick 1 or 2 that you really like and unlock those, if they're in the same pack, even better! as for gold membership, if you ask me you truly don't need it as you can easily unlock items through cash shop and don't REALLY need those til mid-high level game anyway!  I say just unlock some races and classes for now and enjoy your game without monthly fees to worry about, that should last ya a good couple of weeks if anything then if ya still going with it and got decently high, then consider ya next step.  The only reason SOE does deals like that is so you end up spending rediculous ammounts of money.  Hell I doubt you'd even play it more than 2-3 months cus you can get high level within a month and would get bored by then! so is it worth 85 Euros? Hell no.  What I did is only spent around barely even half that and enjoyed myself, no sense waisting a huge amount of cash on a game like that.  Oh and so you don't get bored of it from playing it on a constant basis, my advice is pick up some other games, spend some of that money on a game that is either a decent offline or co-op game or an MMO that you might enjoy but won't end up paying for months on end, or better yet consider free to play titles such as Lord of The Rings and/or Dungeons and Dragons.  Either way, don't waste that much money on this title, you'll be glad you didn't.

    Sounds good but i need to buy that full expansion pack also wich is 35,99€(onsteam) with one month more(for 2months) its like 50,99euro. yeah i do know that i unlock everything but it comes down as the same thing.

    I used the 7 day free return they gave us and logged back on to AB and tbh the server was a ghost town on my play time - GMT +12, the "free" server had much more active sub running at the same time - If you are not playing a peak US play time then I would make sure that there is actually the MMO left in the game before you start handing out cash for something that is a filler. IMHO fillers are best played free - or at worst go download some of the great single player games out there and play those till the game you are waiting for arrives - if you kick off an mmo you are normaly in it for the long run if you want to get the full value from it.

    just buy the newest expac (that includes all others and a free month) and then sub to paid servers.   The F2P version of eq2 is terrible.  The LoTRO system is a lot better if you're set on a free game.

     

    For a paid game you get quite a lot with EQ2 as long as you're willing to solo until you're high level (which is easy).

    all i can say is eq2x not worth a dime.... play live servers or if u want to keep playing the extended server dont waste money on it. Some ppl say that eq2x has less restrictions than other freemium mmos (just because you can hit lvl cap and explore a lot) you are still gonna be mad weak if you dont pay money in cash shop, so thats just a lie. if you play various freemium you will notice eq2x has the worst restrictions... of course if you dont mind wasting money till swtor comes out then go ahead, its your money :)

    by the way, is everquest2 working? cos sonys online services were hacked

    Yeah, yeah, I keep hearing that... from the same short list of posters.
