View Full Version : Hardcore characters?

Allow creation of hardcore characters on red.
Disadvantages of a hardcore character
Upon dying, the character is reset to level 1. All items would be lootable on the character's corpse.
Advantages
Hardcore characters level 3x faster.
Why would be a good idea?
It would provide a nice boost for the new characters dipping their toes in the server while still rewarding longer term players with the satisfaction of resetting one of the hardcore characters back to zero. It introduces the option of playing with or without item loot. It may make pve more interesting and challenging, and help to develop a lower level pvp community.

this would need a whole new server. would be nice to see a different kind of pvp emu than the same shit we've seen since zek merge. hardcore teams discord server with item loot. epic....
would be nice if p99 was open source (LOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOL). i'd have some sick 'classic' custom boxes up on that shit bros.

Hardcore mite be too hardcore for this community though. I would definately like to see a SZ ruleset server with item loot, zone control map, and some other shit. maybe one day bros.

This, most of you are much worse at this game than you think you are.
If you are interested in legit, high pop, hardcore permadeath, try uozombies.com it's ran by Az who ran ipy1 and 2, it just launched on halloween, and it's got an added zombie component once you eat your permadeath.

man I just want to pvp on a server with more then 100pop, (half of those in the same guild) this shit is boring as fucccck.
honestly, putting in Kubark was probably the worst thing that could have happened to this low pop server.
I'm starting to see why people wanted yellow text as well.

12-19-2012, 12:13 PM
I wanted Kunark, I remember thinking it would attract a horde of pvpers and pop would be 300+ (I honestly was certain of this.) Oh well I had fun, lets of lols, no regrets.

Was mortalquest the velious one? if so, we didn't cheat, infact those who were mad at us for raping them were the ones who got caught for cheating by the devs
if mortalquest wasn't the velious one then I think it's the one where I duped like thousands of items because you guys left shared bank on and I wanted to ruin your faggot server for lulz
SOUNDS LIKE U STILL MAD 2 YEARS LATER EITHER WAY SO VICTORY FOR ME :)

i will have a site and forum up shortly. my biz is closed til after new years starting this friday, so shit will be done.
once i talk it over with my fellow forum questers as to what we want the server to be like, you will see... fatman, dont fret.

Pretty sure ive read one of your posts that looked exactly like this in the past and then nothing happened , then again a few months later , then nothing happened.
yet you always come here to rap about the same shit , how you can make a server and all your own stuff , then ,, you guess it

mortalquest started as classic and ended in kunark. never went further. was a great design. i enjoyed the delevel to 1 after death even tho i never died. it made little pvp but the pvp that existed was really intense.

it's true, i have spoke of a server since p99 launched, but it takes time and a decent server to host it. i now have both.. it'll happen.
i've had a few successful custom pvp boxes before your time, so i don't need you to tell me what i am capable of. go back to your garden and do what you're good at.

Perma death pvp with cycling wipes prease.
i always loved the idea of cycling wipes.. i wanted to do it with crucify back in the day.
vile box will be only a few zones to start.
think Qeynos Vs. Freeport setup i had, but no qeynos or freeport... with ability to add on future zones.
just not sure how detailed i want to get with each zone... crucify style drops or what? need to think about it.

I'm curious now, I noticed Unrest is a hotspot on red99, I also noticed its the only dungeon on your map( and BB)
Whats the love affair with unrest with the PVP folk ?

12-19-2012, 05:45 PM
one of the best xp spots in classic in unrest so its always been a pvp hotspot

I see, as a follow up question then:
If this is a custom zone/experience, why not just choose another cool zone ?
EDIT: Ah the outdoorness, I like KC for that reason.

i had plans to expand it... the zone in to surefall was going to open up the whole map...

prob not gonna happen... proven to fail on emu.
not enough peeps... and 1 side will always be lop sided + x-teaming would be rampant.

i dont think thats true. i have no evidence to back that up but I think people going into a teams server now wouldnt zerg up evil. maybe i have too much faith in the playerbase hehe

12-19-2012, 06:36 PM
Yeah most people wouldn't roll evil and no one would even think about xteaming.

The grind.

It would provide a nice boost for the new characters dipping their toes in the server while still rewarding longer term players with the satisfaction of resetting one of the hardcore characters back to zero. It introduces the option of playing with or without item loot. It may make pve more interesting and challenging, and help to develop a lower level pvp community.
On first seeing this, I thought "Hey, that might be fun."
But the reality is players die too much in EQ for it to work. Dying in EQ is part of the game. It comes built-in. If you don't die then you don't challenge yourself. No challenge = No fun.
That and almost all hardcores would be twinks out for fun. A rich player's sojourn. But I think even this is a stretch, since dying is so common. Maybe if it had a scoring system on a webserver.
I'd rather see PvP statistics like live had MUCH more. It's sourly missing.
I have lots of ideas but they'd all change P1999 so it's not P1999 anymore.

I played on SZ and on Zek when it merged. I loved the stats but did mostly PvE. If you added up all my kills it would probably be maybe 20-30. Many more deaths. I always ran because my mommy told me to.
The stats are cool. Not because I am. It was fun to log on live and look at em. I remember looking for people in my guild to see what they were doing in the stats. That was what I really liked it for.

It made people care too much
enough to cheat , lie , fuck everyone over and fight as cheap as possible to get on top
it spawned an era of hacks and cheap bullshit that just resulted in mass gankings of players fighting mobs or otherwise not ready to be gibbed by a raid geared group of people
the day they took the leaderboard out a ton of assholes quit and zek got alot better. Sony never stepped in to do shit about hackers, i guess the best course of action for them was to take away the reason to hack
it worked
and after the dark age ( DoN ) TSS was the light on the horizon
