Instancing & Faster Repops: Why both would be bad for P99

[Vilkata]

Instance it all. I want VP all to myself.

Please god no instances. That would be so depressing in an MMO. That's one of the reasons WoW started dying. But, I'm confident they would never do that, something is complex as zone instances without bugs is out of reach for volunteer programmers. I don't think they want the overhead.

[Mygicmeen]

Im rather torn. What about instancing older content like hate?

[Swish]

"I want to go online to meet as few other people as possible" - players today.

If you want all the content to yourself in a game, play Skyrim.

I mean I think for the most part we all agree and that's why we are here to begin with.

I've seen this topic, or many like it, come and go over the years. It really always boils down to this:

There's nothing wrong with P99 that can't be fixed by people treating others like they are also people. The greed-induced "othering" that goes on is shameful this many years in.

[Daldaen]

Ragefire is dumb.

Set respawn to 2 hours and you can't sock it all, eventually killing Dozekar every 2 hours would be less attractive and guilds would schedule raid times to hang out and kill targets.

Would solve most problems and when problems did arise guilds could work things out like "we will do NToV Monday and you do it Tuesday".

Pretty simple. The timeline is almost complete and once it comes off the rails when they don't launch Luclin throw in the super fast 2 hour respawn on all mobs over 2 hours and all will be well.

agree with daldaen, once the last patch comes off, you may as well accelerate the server to its deathbed, 7 day repop is a slow death march of attrition.

after last patch, the sooner you kill off the server the sooner devs and all of us can move on with our lives.
