View Full Version : I was wrong... p99 green is awesome.
I made the post yesterday complaining about the server. Basically where it came from is I've been playing tlp for the past 3-4 years and haven't really been on p99 recently. When I started my character, I was looking through the lens of "I need to rush to 50, I need to level asap or people will be level 30 by tonight and pass me". What I realized after hitting level 5 or so is that this is really not like tlp at all - there is no massive group bonus, not everyone can just file into guk, there are actual benefits to going out in the world and grinding camps or soloing. You can't really see your exp, you can't really talk cross zone, you really don't have a lot of conveniences.
The more I play, the more I realize that this meta is so much more fun and interesting than anything tlp fresh servers have been offering us. The game world is actually complete and useful again instead of just rushing through dungeons as hard as possible. It actually feels good.

This is what a lot of us true believers have been saying since Green was launched. Classic EverQuest was fun as hell.
It seems like somewhere along the way many people forgot how true that was.
Glad you’re having such a good time!

And the insane success of Classic WOW has only proven this even further. From "you think you do, but you don't" two years ago to Classic WOW becoming more successful than Live WOW has been in the past 5 years!
People are eager to get back into the slow gameplay style of the classic MMOs. Where the journey is every bit as important as the destination.
Pantheon, if it's good, might actually turn out to be a goldmine of profitability

"you think you do, but you don't"
Those guys have now moved on to “The novelty will wear off soon.”
It’s insufferable.

Yay converts!
Just wait till you rediscover hell levels and naked dungeon corpse runs, OP.
The game is slow and rough and the graphics and UI are dated. But the gameplay is great, the struggle is real, there's one world with people friends and not bumping into each other... It's fantastic at all levels.

I'm not really a convert, more like a "I thought I wanted it, but I didn't, but actually I did."

AND banning Taiwanese Hearthstone pros for voicing their support of HK.
All this from J Allen Brack who is now the CEO of blizzard and likely making tens of millions of dollars a year.....
Ironically I actually think it was the success of the EQ TLP servers that gave them the final push to move into Classic WOW development

honestly the graphics don't bother me in fact I think they have quite a bit of charm in their own way.
And this is coming from a graphics whore with a high end high refresh rate gaming PC
I'm sure a lot of that is nostalgia. On the other hand I've also been playing classic well recently which is my first time and I like those graphics as well

P99 is difficult but so much more rewarding. Starting fresh has been very fun!

awesome for blue player that come with all their friends...
i was camping a solo spawn mob, but a 3 man group rape me away
i went 2 time to everfrost pit, 5 man group said the pit was for them only (on day 1, with fast repop... but if you take 1 creep, they go 4 player on yours so no xp)..
i wont play on this serv anymore.. was really enjoying to start this game, but those players (and its not new player from wow, they re from blue) just fucked me away from it.
Good luck with your new toy blue player... (i wish you to finish with the same 800 player and to never have the opportunity to try something new because old community dont want you... in real life its called racism)
i cant say good job to game masters.. make a shining server but let anarchy as main rule.

are you talking to me connard ?
What are the rules regarding camps?
See this thread for the current rules and discussion. Basically the group/person camping has to "maintain a presence", and there's no showing up right as the mob spawns and taking it from a person/group because you know its spawn timer. Again, the "Don't be a dick" rule comes into play.
dont be a dick connard

I did that once with a game called Vanguard. I even went to the pre release convention and everything.
Heck I even won a signed copy by Brad McQuaid and Jeff Butler, but I'm not about to get my hopes up for another game like that.

What's the point in explaining the obvious? If someone wants to think the Earth is flat then no one can convince them otherwise.
And yes, green is awesome. It reminds people of how MMOs can be slow and social. A stark contrast even to WoW classic, which people think is tough for some reason. I'd love to see their reactions from playing classic EQ/FFXI. Although hopefully without an irritating clickbait thumbnail attached.

Where did you see that i was complaining because their group was full ??
When you cant complain about rules violation by blue player without be called idiot or wow player etc... its not racism but discrimination. wich is the same in our society.

i was just reporting a problem at first, then i see a lot of people that complain about me complaining. People nowaday are so poor in their mind that they need to do things like this to exist (4916 times exactly). I use to think its the same kind of people that think people can or cant be married because of their sexual preference or things like this.
