Kinda torn on this. I enjoyed playing here at launch. Its true that the zones were much more empty due to low population and they had to turn general chat on as world wide channel to help people find grps, but it was still a great experience. even with all the bugs and stuff, it was great then.

I definitely think a relaunch with the all the fixes and patches/expansions on the real timeline would be a great experience too, but I enjoyed p99 when it was still brand new also.
I played possibly late 2009 and definitely early 2010. I had a lot of fun, so not sure what that's about.

It's not just nostalgia. This old argument is a dead horse. For every 1000 players tried EQ, maybe 200 or fewer stayed longterm. Of those, maybe only 20 actually liked it for what it was and not just because it was their first. The result is, some people at project 1999 were one of those 20 people in every 1000 who genuinely liked it. Nostalgia exists for everybody, but these people don't need it to enjoy the classic EQ experience.

Like it or not, some of us favor old EQ for what it was, warts and all. "One man's garbage is anothers' treasure." That statement isn't BS and it applies here. Many gamers won't acknowledge it or they dismiss. So they continue arguing endlessly at the wall, like Sisyphus being condemned by Zeus to forever roll a boulder up the hill. The answer is simply to accept other people can like a pile of s***. It's their right, as it's anybody's right, to play what they like and go their own way. Whenever possible, we should leave it alone, or tragically get trapped like Sisyphus.

My wish list:

Server 1) Blue server - Permanent
Server 2) Blue server - Recycle into permanent server after timeline is finished
Server 3) Red server - Recycle into permanent server after timeline is finished

Current red server would be transferred to blue server now before relaunch of the two new servers.
My wishlist is fairly similar:

Server 1) Blue Server - Advance current server to Luclin

Server 2) "Green" Server - Progression Server that follows "live" time-frame of expansion releases, then recycles into Blue Server once timeline is finished.

Server 3) Red Server - Recycles into Blue Server ASAP, then reboot following the old "Live" time-frame of expansion releases. Additionally, make the server into some form of teams PvP server - either TZ/VZ (racially grouped) teams, or a variation of Sullon Zek (diety based) teams server. Note: whichever teams ruleset is chosen, there would needs be some form of useful reward/help for the teams that are behind, like maybe turning in looted insignias for random rewards for truly useful potions (like low-end could be weak buff pots, chance for a 0% rez pot, etc, and high-end maybe buff pots for buffs that don't exist on your team like DMF, or Paladin/Ranger buff, etc). The further your team is "behind", the better the rewards/pots for turning in pvp insignias.

The P99 Devs are really good, I would really like to see a progression server by them up to Luclin. No idea why people dislike Luclin so much, POP is what changed the game.

Luclin was awesome. It's probably too much to code?

could you imagine the horror of debugging P99 AA issues - some buttons would probably flat out be unresponsive or hell would randomly appear to be avail to use before the timer has been reset ( cough LOH cough )

P99 AAs would be great!

AE FG, Ssra Basementand Deep groups grinding AAs.

Not that many AAs would need debugging since the Generals are all extremely straight forward raw stat or Resist type changes, the archetypes are all shared and confirmable from overnight parsing. Each class only has 2-4ish activateable AAs.

It wouldn't take too long. Plus maxed level characters would have a reason to continue playing beyond rolling yet another alt.
Maybe if they fix LoH first....its been appearing 'ready to use' before its actually ready for over 3-4 years now !
