New map desktop app coming soon (as long as it's still kosher with p99 rules)

I very well could be crazy but i'm also right about everything I've said in this thread.

You keep telling yourself that.

Not having maps and getting lost - sort of were.

Sort of... yes.

I mean, they did include the /loc and logging systems, sell kunark and velious to you with maps included in the box (albeit not to the same level as a wiki or a mapping app), eventually implement a map ingame (suggesting perhaps the desire to do so originally but it just didn't happen cause of budget/technical limitations/time constraints, etc), etc.

Stuff like this isn't far off from something like FD splitting or AE groups. Neither of those things were "intended" by the developers of EQ; they were things that the players figured out they could do (and do legally) with the mechanics the devs gave them. So is this.

You will never be newbie again

Sort of... yes.

I've learned more about EQ in the time I've been on p99 than I learned in the time I played on live from early kunark on and off through like, LOY or something. There's a lot of breadth AND depth to this game. There's still plenty to discover and learn and do even now, over a decade after the true noob phase ended [You must be logged in to view images.

Leggo my Eqqo.

Seriously though, I get that it's not for you. No one's forcing it on anybody. So you can't see where people are on a flashy map. Big deal.

quite a claim to determine what is intended in a video game you didn't develop. i don't see any evidence to support it either. a claim without evidence is just conjecture.

the precise reason to implement a log is to read it...why else write it all down?

aside from that:

i can't believe this is controversial. Everything in the map is freely available information that was compiled into one place.

think it gives an unfair advantage? not sure what is unfair about an app available to everyone if some simply refuse to use it.

you don't like it? don't use it.. but why come here and cry about how it isn't fair when 100% of the player base can use it? continue to tack your way across south karana while having the wiki map open in another window... i'll be skipping the step of locating myself on a inverted and rotated Cartesian coordinate system.

in summary...

I hear you but if we follow that logic then why not just play on live and ignore the last 35 expansions and pretend its classic.

Why not let people box, bot and offset? You don't like it? you don't have to use it.

This is pee in the pool. The only way to avoid it is to stop swimming and get out.

pee in the pool confirmed

get out

Go ahead then. Git!

[no chewie dont]

so why do you guys think they disabled in-game maps? to give "some of us" the "option" of NOT using maps?
