Game Mechanics: Item loot: a PLAGUE to the red RMT market

[Nirgon]

Raiders have a huge advantage with or without item loot. Period.

Moving on.

Nothing custom. It was tried already and fails.

Notice the LOW AS FUK pop on all the other custom servers.

Allow bagging etc.

Peace and classic EQ foreva.

[Not Salem]

Having played on a game where perma death existed and character investment was far greater then EQ's, I would say it does not curb RMT. Other then that I agree [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

there would be 6 players on the box with item loot, all level 12 fighting in crushbone



stealing eachothers raw hide

claiming box champ

posting 5 page story on forums about it

People that want item loot are the minority, of a minority, the dream is dead brother, why push something so hard that the server doesn't even want?

Rallos zek was not a perfect server by any means, let it die.........let it die.........sleep

[Nirgon]

Had more pop than SZ

All servers got merged into RZ

Pras

[pgerman]

By the time the servers " merged " anyone left playing live eq still ...............I mean seriously. What year was that? Probably at least 3 years after most people here quit live.
EQ was dead by then.



In tallon zek, or sullen's prime, they had more population than rallos. EQ servers went through a glory period, all of them. Just like most new boxes do. First year or so is usually great.

As hard as it may be for you to believe, there were good aspects of both sullen and rallos, but sony eventually destroyed both servers, so you have to find a balance of what the best "classic" experience really was.

Why beat a dead horse that no one really wants , except you, and like 3 other people here , that probably don't play on the box .

Derubael has spotted me on the boxes, you just gotta dig deep.

The hello kitty avatar is a nice compliment to hating on item looting that separates this so much from WoW clones.

Can't wait for the first clueless numbskull that buys a fungi with outback bucks to lose it. I'm much less worried about skilled players losing items.

[pgerman]

you just don't get it, there isn't even 200 people left on planet earth that would play an eq emu server with item loot

[Nirgon]

There's people willing to play an EQ Emu server where they're the only people farming raid content.

I think we're safe.

I would hope you aren't trying to circumvent classic development to protect your personal interests.

[pgerman]

been on red since day one, took a break when nilly was only guild on server, came back joined azrael

played on blue server before red came out, so what? I spend 2k a week in potions on red.

Keep pushing something no one wants, great use of time, cya in another thread

[Nirgon]

Lots of people don't want these classic features.

I direct them to WoW.

There will be more threads like this where risk and reward are added to the game, or convenient bugs/exploits removed [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Most will be sad to see them go.
