Will it be just as buggy and terrible as the real EQ2 release? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
There is a reason it never got super popular.

Also this thread belongs in Off Topic. Server Chat is for Everquest and Project 1999 discussion. everquest 2 Does Not Equal everquest.

Nah it wont be as buggy due to the p99 staff and stuff running this so well, the reason I didnt put it in off topic is because I asked how about when p99 is done with its timeline we get a classic eq 2 from the gms/devs here, I think it could breathe new life into the server for the people that want something different or new and fresh I realize it would take along while to do and its not going to happen overnight but it is something to think about

Would support... but they released a true progression server with original coding a couple of years ago. They'll likely do this regularly.

What? thats cool man didnt know this

I tried playing Everquest II beta, was bored after 2 hours and went back to playing everquest 1...There is something more immersive about being able to KS somebody even though you shouldn't...an instanced world with rules that can't be broken isn't very immersive....

I think you helped me pinpoint my disdain for EQ2. I expected EQ 2.0 and got EQ2. EQ2 did not feel like Everquest.

The late 90's. RPG world that you do video game stuff in. Reasons we old timers rant on translocator NPCs and taking the tunnel for a bazaar. There was never a place to sell, people gathered. On other servers they did it in Greater Faydark. P99 has hooked me on the single server experience. I was talking with a guy in the tunnel earlier and he mentioned his looking forward to Pantheon (new EQ) and I wished him the best.

Is it still really badly optimized?

Unfortunately its the game engine itself. It runs on one CPU core and no more. Last time i tried it, even w a 4790k @ 4.5ghz and a gtx 780, I was stuck at like 45fps tops around other players.

Never liked EQ2.

Doesn't it have playable pixies?

Yikes.

EQ2 is just a bad game. Would not play.
