Will be seeing less of me

Still amazing to me that P99 uses Takp as a baseline for what was classic on a server that was built with an entirely different code for Mac.

The coding was so bad for the live version of takp they couldn't even figure out how to implement a mouse wheel and Quarm literally never died because it was so broken and they couldn't, or didn't want to, fix it.

Yet here we are getting changes from their old logs that are not even close to classic. Pretty sad the little amount of work the devs here do now and just rely on a server that literally had nothing in common we with classic servers.

Maybe true EqMac was far from classic, but it is still comparatively closer than a dev just pulling a guess out of their bum or referencing current live.

ie it’s the best source when no better sources are available. I’m fine with that.

Since hearing about the upcoming change to CHA I have lost quite a lot of interest in P99 unfortunately and it has nothing to do with charming or playing an enchanter

I picked this server and game because of a perception of stability. The main reason I wasn’t interested in live or TLP was the the “sameness” of a time locked setting and ruleset appealed to me greatly

The reality now that the devs can and will make changes to game mechanics on a whim has removed that perception of stability. For example, regardless of how you felt about how appropriate or fair the sudden mage pet nerfs were, my perception of sudden nerfs to game mechanics like this was entirely negative, and I don’t play nor have any interest to play a mage

Just wanted to mention that as I lose interest in the game so will my interest in the forum unfortunately. I will still be around but the post count is going way down, so this isn’t a goodbye just an explanation

See you in a few weeks.

I'd expect nothing less though.

If I remember right Eqmac launch was a disaster for SOE. They were expecting thousands of players and got a few hundred. Lol.

it was lacking artistic merit, perhaps if Bono did the soundtrack.

I’ll stick around for a bit on forums but I’ve never remained on a gaming forum long after I stopped playing the game, that’s just not me. I tend to get tunnel visioned into whatever I’m doing so as soon as I start a new game it’ll be that or else I’ll get hyper focused even more on working out until I get a physique like Mike Thurston or something

I have no interest in wasting any more of my time on a soon to be nerfed class or on a server in development with balance patches. I misunderstood the extremely slow pacing of balance patches here as the fact the server was static, not dynamic

The developer’s confirmation was the nail in the coffin in my interest in P99 gameplay

It’s probably just me being cynical, but I really don’t believe that any class is truly “safe” from nerfs (or buffs). It seems what is “classic” or what isn’t is highly highly speculative and open to debate due to a lot of past evidence/code being lost

But sure I’ll keep an eye on new pvp server news. I can picture myself trying to run to the zone line to alt-f4 escape your bard/ranger and not making it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
