dude are you nuts? I started playing 1 month ago, and dude, the feels.. its awesome! I have NEVER had a problem finding a group. Like are you, like walking into a zone, shouting CAN I HAZ GRUP? then zoning out if you dont get one in like 1 minuet? dude sit, sit and stare at the classic poly's, youll get a group. it just takes 10 minuets.. besides that's how long it took in classic. Seriously its lols when I hear peopel say they cant get a group, any zone has like 12 people in it at all times except maybe runneye... take your friends to that one.

Grouping is insanely popular in this game lol, maybe you're playing on red.. I dont know what youre doing wrong but man, this game is classic and AWESOME

*Edit* also, The epics, who cares? just enjoy the game, if you dont like groupign with people with epics, that is just wierd.. like dude wut? how does that effect you? You cant twink a lowbie out to be indestructable like you could in live, you can twink them out to have decent mid level gear though, but seriously does it matter? like the +150 Hp's they're getting could possibly be game breaking.

there are people that are good at eq, i for one am playing it the way I wish I could back in the day, as in kicking ass and getting fat lewt and enjoying the hell out of norrath while i ram my boot up its backside.

Also people who powerlevel for the most part are suuuuper respectful of other people, if you talk to them instead of maybe, /t redcondruid 'hey asshole stop training us' they'll be like 'oh hey sorry! yea I'll move!'

Seriously if you're not having fun on this server, you either hate EQ or have internet social problems, I'm sorry to be so blunt but DONT TALK SHIT ABOUT THIS GAME OR BOOT IN BACKSIDE

*edit edit* Sorry if I came off as over reacting, I probably was. Seriously you should just give it time, grouping takes time, its hard and you have to be committed, you cant quit if your group wipes 2-3 times trying to get set up, you have to stick to it, you have to tell people when and how long youre playing, and if you leave, you should try to find a replacment as you get higher in levels. EQ is a game that's all about what you put into it.

He plays during Australian times. EQ is a different beast at 4 in the morning EST.

Yea true, I realised he was Australian and felt so guilty for calling him nuts, cus I <3 Australia (and he could probubly punch my head off irl) hence all the edits.

That's fair! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

One thing I did once was /ooc lfg in EC and we put one together there and traveled to the perfect location. I wish that was culturally the norm for finding a group. Make it so!

Also I chose a class that could solo, because not knowing how dense the population would be I never wanted to be stuck not able to do anything. I suggest giving a class that's soloable a shot.

Most of your issues are due to the amount of time we have been stuck in Kunark, not with the classicness of the server. Not much can be done about that, since the developers working on Velious are unpaid volunteers with actual jobs.

Also, there are plenty of non PL'ed groups going on in places like Unrest/Mistmoore/City of Mist/Sebilis.

Yeah I do realise that. Its still a very cool server and I imagine was just cool as shite when it first came out. I spent a long time playing but didn't really find those groups though I'm aussie player so in low pop time which is likely also a big issue.

Not sure why someone would see a name like Project 1999 and feel that it should be a more modernized version of eq. Says right on the main page that the intent of the project is to keep the classic feel of eq from 99-2000 era.

Will this server make improvements in graphics, models, etc as EQ did originally? I don't dig playing stick men, and seeing guild names along side player names.

nope.

Also, when will maps and compass be implemented?

never.

Some only want to play stick men and sell skelly bones and bat wings in the EC tunnel for decades and decades.

yes.

Server is classic in timeline and mechanics (mostly).

Ain't nothing gonna bring back those classic feels you felt when you were 15.

I don't mind at all the very slow xp as it was, but please, corpse runs for level 1, 2, and 3's? When or if this changes, I may come back. I can't get past level 3 w/o losing my corpse and my only dagger. And yes, I know how to /L.

Also, when will maps and compass be implemented?

If P1999 will play as the original game did when LDoN and PoP is released on the server, I will come back and have a great time. That is when I started originally in EQ. Forgive me, but I cannot get into P1999 as is. I guess I may have never played EQ if they didn't progress and improve the game.

I do salute P1999. It's just too early on the server for me to start. I miss general chat which is a must for new players.

So if anyone can answer these questions, I would appreciate it. I know there will be haters. Some only want to play stick men and sell skelly bones and bat wings in the EC tunnel for decades and decades.

7/10 bravo

Hi welcome to Project 1999, don't let the door hit your constipated Luclin model's arse on the way out.

For people actually reading this far, groups are very easy to find if you play American/European primetime. I play PST as a chanter and get tells across zones even when I try to solo. For Asian/Australian primetime, I would go into the Guild subforum and try to find an Oceanic (or even Asian!) guild.
