Why I won't be playing Ragefire

[Wabic]

XP pots make it pay to win. No thanks.

>Q: Will the Marketplace be available on Ragefire?

Yes, it will. Initially it will only have cosmetic items, XP potions and bags available. When we open Beta for this, we will need your help in making sure that we caught everything.

that + boxing + non-classic zones = formula for disaster

This + Macroquest will make the community suck.

I came to p99 from live 7 months ago. And ALOT of people used it. It's not policed at all. I don't see that changing on the new server either. Community is what makes this p99 fun. That's what MMO's have lost over the years. And these things will kill it overtime.

No Hell Lvl's nor race/class penalties.

Xp Pots?? /facepalm

Twice the XP gain than at launch.

Leader AA's at launch.



No thanks quasi Classic

Daybreak can't really disable boxing if they want to make it profitable, people going to go wild with those accounts and rake it in.

Agreed though, hard to want to play with all that kind of stuff going on. I wonder if the Station Cash symbol will be on the UI?

What people here need to grasp is, the product Daybreak is offering is a progression server.

It will progress through all 22 Expansions of content. It's aimed at attracting players interested in playing all of that content, or atleast a decent chunk of it.

They currently have no desire to lock EQ to a certain timeframe and make a "classic server". So the amount of work that would be required to be put in to emulate classic on a server designed to only be in the "classic" era for a few months to a year isn't worth it to them.

I Expect to see a time locked server at some point in time and expect them to put a bit more effort into making it truly classic when that happens.

Still though - EXP potions need to be nuked. Buying fast track on a brand new progression server is dumb.

Pretty much this for me. As hard as I have tried I could not get my friends into p 99 even when trying to bribe them with plat and power leveling but they seem stoked for this so hopefully I will have RL friends to enjoy this with.

did you know in the early days of mmos right before full commercialization, they charged upwards of 14 dollars an hour?
