Ragefire: A game old enough to drive a car; still can't launch new server right
 

So Everquest Live's Progression server Ragefire was scheduled to launch at 6:00PM EST. At 5:30pm I decided to take a shower; my last for what could be through Memorial Day weekend. Server is launched at 5:35pm.

Then, players exploit a pay-to-win feature on normal servers and instantly start with level 50s, begin transfering the free plat and powerleveling alts. Server is immediately locked but players that got in (even with exploits) are allowed to keep playing.

Something tells me if this was P99 the devs would be smart enough to shut it down immediately, wipe it, and start it right. I guess you don't always get what you pay for...

I'm not one to be a douche, normally, but I told ya so

Lmao wow

This oughtta be good.

/popcorn

working as intended

even the the launching has drama, the name was so aptly chosen

Half-elf bard's broke #Everquest. :( We're looking into it. All insta-level-50 half elf bards on Ragefire are asked to sit on their hands...

was just half elf bards apparently.

This is awesome!

bards ruin everything
