They were specifically put it in to emulate the classic experience of frequent patches and server resets. Search the forums for it.

Have nots will always be have nots. Could start 10 new servers (which isn’t classic btw) and these guys still wouldn’t get their precious pixels.

Classic new servers launched at CURRENT timeline. Morell Thule with kunark, Vazaelle with Celious, Kane with Luclin. None of those servers ever saw a guise or stone etc.

These "Classic above all else" people really like to cherry pick what constitutes what where, and talk about original developer intention, which usually doesn't involve people being as shitty as possible to each other.

Fundamentally it doesn't actually bear weight as a proven article.

It's an idea, and ideas are fluid, though I agree there should be limitations.

If we really want to talk about "developer intentions" we could probably all agree that not only was there no script for the Sleeper coming back, they never needed one because that gear was trash garbage about a year and a half later, and the original dev's were wildly erratic with what they ever decided needed to be focused on.

A year ago on Live (or was it two?) they went back and fixed old Kunark-era quests that no one could ever possibly want to do...but would make sense on p99, and be very Classic indeed, because that was their intention.

Imagine caring that much about your pixels (seek help)

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

So what you're saying is that you wouldn't mind a server wipe & reset? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
From what I'm hearing nobody is against it.

Though there is something deeply ironic about someone not liking that someone "new" (I've played since launch) is coming to play an old version of an old game, because they're not yet old enough to have played the old game long enough by the standards of the currently old game.

yea except you and everyone else knows you're just mad you don't get a shot at something. so here you are trying to summon up some objective reason why you should.

you know you missed Lustrous Russet armor too? But of course you don't care about that because the quality of it is piss compared to Velious armor.

hmmm I wonder why you only care about ST loot and not other items that are also extinct? could it be because ST loot is top tier? That can't be it right.... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Here's what I want out of p99:
Greenmist (weapon)
Greenmist (armour set)

That's it.

But the argumentation for/against reviving the Warders is absolutely weighed more heavily towards the respawn than against, despite what the really pathetic "this content isn't available because one guy made a couple guys mad, so they decided to fuck over everyone." argument the against people always seems to fall back on.

Not including the Classic!!!!!!11111 people, who make fair points, but ultimately not ones that hold enough water.

Ultimately, if the p99 devs say "Nope." then Nope is what it shall be, but as this is an open discussion thus far with no such interjection, I'm sorry you won't be as special as you want to like to think you are, and they should bring them back.

Because the best part of being Classic is not being a piece of shit.
