R.I.P Norrath Map

[bktroost]

Just fall deep into the rabbit hole of immersion and stop having the same #classicbutyouwon'tusedialuptoEQ or #classicbutyoudon'tuseoldUItoEQ argument because it's trite.

That's a damn lie. DSL came out shortly after.. cable modem came out 6 months after. Plus dsl and cable were only available in certain areas at that time

1997 just for DOCSIS 1.0, there were other proprietary cable modem standards even earlier than that.

Tbh, most of you "that's not classic" nerds would quit if this was REALLY classic windows 98, 56k modem, no laser mouse, no flat screen monitor.. etc. Why bash my main post when the official wiki has maps with key points of interests on it.. norrath map was the same just a time saver for me.. sorry I have a family to feed and bills to pay... I don't have time to find a zone in an mmo that takes forever to level in at the same time..

I had Cable also when EQ came out. Stepfather(who brought EQ home in August of 99) worked for a cell company that got cable for all their employees that worked from home for faster connection.

I think you are trolling at this point. This argument has been had 30 times on these forums this month. The game hasn't changed.

If author will PM me and make available the code - ill host it.

LOL chortled good here - thank you.

ITT the difference between OP being able to feed his family & pay his bills is a rudimentary map in a (16) year old game.

You should be thankful we get the Wiki. In 1999 you had to print hard copies of that shit and make an entire binder dedicated to EQ maps.

The original devs didn't expect most people to get past level 30.

Those wiki maps are the same maps us Classholes printed out from EQ Atlas with hand written notes/locs and collected in binders back in 1999-2001.
