  • No. Given the concept and the focus on travel it is not going to be another EQ1. Also, the game is more group-centric in design and less raid-centric. This will be somewhat like a new age kunark/velious era style group system but with completely dif…
  • aaaaaaand I quoted the wrong person. This was in response to the person asking how close release was. Beta for this game is in 5 stages: beta0, beta1, beta2, beta3, and beta4. In all honestly it's best to shoot for beta3, as this was stated as being…
  • Originally posted by BarryB These guys really know fantasy immersion, im expecting a lot out of the crew working on this game. I got my beta email a few days ago, guess I can just cross my fingers and hope for the best. Brad, the head for the gam…
  • Mediocre Pvp ( which is all we've had since UO) < Excellent PVE. I can't deny that PVP is the future but most pvp games just turn into gank fests with no real RP. Go play a shooter. Most of the communities for pvp games suck as well, solely becau…
  • I just have to point out that it's Pre-Luclin EQ, not Pre-Velious EQ, that ruled. The EQ pinnacle WAS velious, even though the expansion did start off quite buggy. But yes, I am ecstatic about vanguard, though I will never whole-heartedly trust a ga…
  • If you consider how much more content they are giving us then they were when they had an amazingly huge subscriber base then i'm sure it is easy to see that 2$'s more a month is understandable. It is not just sheer greed. I highly doubt that anyone …
  • If ANYONE is strugglin to pay that two extra dollars I feel sorry for them.
  • Hahahaha. Yes, in an online game, where being able to interact with people in an ever-persistant world is the whole damn point, they are going to implement a solo high end game along with the high end raiding.How about this: You play vanguard, and a…
  • You're missing the whole point. MMORPG's are about community based gaming, thus they are not meant for the solo player. Go play final fantasy while you sit in a chatroom on your computer and you'll get just the game you're asking for.
  • 1. If you play on the top populated servers the population is fine since the mergers. 2. The servers are excellently maintained and you should experience no lag. 3. SoE has horrid customer support typically. 4. EQ was a beautiful game in its pri…
  • For the last bloody time: IF YOU WANT SOLO CONTENT DON'T PLAY MMORPG'S!
  • Uh, Everquest pre-raiding era was so lacking. I think velious was the obvious peak of this, but NToV, ToV, AoW, coldain king and tormax proved that if you design it well raiding is fantastic. The whole faction Velious/Kunark era was the golden era o…
  • Uh, WoW has already appealed quite a bit to the casual gamer. Adding hardcore content is for the better. As far as ganking lowbies goes, they said they are going to add a lowering feature if the system is abused, meaning they already designed it and…
  • My bad, I thought it was sarcasm, lol. *pulls stick from butt and inserts foot in mouth*.
  • Thank you for not quoting the whole paragraph, including the part where i made note of how in the interviews they had exclaimed that the expansions were going to be where the real innovation came.
  • The second you contrasted AC2 to EQ2 is the second you lost all credibility.
  • Lol, you guys are such haters. The content of a patch, eh? I'm glad you've played it already... The basic plan is to just keep adding adventure packs for raids and raid gear so that every expansion they make doesn't follow the same premise: kill, l…
  • Damn, guess i'm not comin back then, heh. *sigh* Back to carebearedness!~.
  • I like the progression, I just think that you are forced from from one zone to the next, via keys. This formula was very problematic in EQ1 post-pop. I'm mainly just hoping that history doesn't repeat itself.
  • Everquest is no longer Everquest, it's "hey I can farm OoW and get elemental then hopefully i can get a time guild and actually progress...quest". Originally EQ1's world had a ton of paths you could follow but then they all followed the "getting key…
