1 Million Characters Created! - How did you find p99?

[Swish]

How many of those 1 million made it to level 2? So many good names "on hold" that have been forgotten about by people who no longer play... personally I'd axe any level 1s holding a tome of discord (likely to not be mules) and let the name pool have some half decent ones in.

Sincerely,

Agalauigxx (all the good names were taken)


I found P99 while looking up a quest on Allakhazam in 2010, while in my final days playing live. Someone in the comments had it in their signature.

Was my birthday back in 2010 and I missed EQ so I logged back into my EQLive account. Didn't recognize anything so decided to see if there was an EMU that worked online. Found a few others then came to P99. Saw a *LOT* of bad reviews citing missing content and game breaking bugs (like pets not working, boats not working, lifts not working, bad pathing, etc) but decided to give it a shot.

Spent the entire evening trying to get the game installed and loaded up a new druid in Faydark where I found out the lifts DID work. You just had to hit the button twice. At that point I decided to throw out all the shitty forum posts I read and continue playing.

I fell in love with the game again almost immediately. I actually miss those days of no expansion packs.

Fun fact: over 25% of these characters have been tagged as BDA at one point

Speaking of our wayward brothers at EQClassic.org....has anybody heard any actual news from that end of the classic EQ universe lately?

Got a twinge of nostalgia one day, and looked up my old guild. I found the nearly dead former EZBoard MB, and someone mentioned P99. After much begging, a few weeks later, the wife allowed me to play a bit.

Asshole friend texted me about P99.

Years back a close friend got some free EQ live game time and allowed me to play on his account. shortly after that we started playing on Shards of Dalaya. That was pre-p99. Long story short we played Shards less and put eq down for a while. I always kept an eye on EQ EMU and mid 2010 I noticed Project 1999 boasting it was going to recreate the classic experience of EQ. Back in 2010 P99 was a lot more rough then what we have now so I didn't stick around for long.
Move the clock forward to 2014 and I decided to re-try p99 to see how its progress was coming along. After seeing the progress that had been made since 2010 I decided to spent a lot of time on p99 and also got my old close friend to come play p99 with me.
Here we are almost 2016,. I have 2 characters very near level 60 and many fond memories. It's been a blast! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
