Default Project 1999 Pantheon Pledge Drive!

Project 1999 Pantheon Pledge Drive!

We are sorry to hear that the Kickstarter project for Pantheon did not meet it's funding, so we have removed the tier reward section of this post to prevent confusion.

We greatly encourage our players to continue to Support Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen. The team over at Visionary Realms has their new website up and running, and are continuing to seek crowd funding for their game so that they are able to bring an experience tailored to the same kind of people that enjoy Project 1999.

You can find the new website here: www.pantheonrotf.com

If you enjoy playing here on Project 1999 please support Pantheon. We feel it is our responsility to give back to a group of developers who have given so much to the MMORPG industry and the people who play their games. This project may be the last opportunity for us as gamers to see an MMORPG that is created to promote the type of challenging and social gameplay that Everquest first pioneered back in 1999.

Help Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen become a reality by visiting their website today!

I don't understand why you think it's a huge deal. XP pots will help the raid scene get larger quicker with max leveled characters, a bonus in my eyes. Guise is just cosmetic really, shrink pots are quite easy to come by if you use the mask for shrink mostly. Early access to velious won't be a huge deal either because there will be no raid targets up and there are other mobs too that will not pop so there really isn't anything too great to be had. Whatever they can do to help to make this game happen is great because this server is just going to mostly migrate there. All the people who refuse to pay and support something they love will stay here, have fun bickering at each other because us good folk will be playing Pantheon [You must be logged in to view images.

yeah clearly we don't have enough max leveled players on this server /facepalm

I just don't like this. I don't like the RMT nature of things and I don't like pay to win games either.

I think its a pretty nice idea, especially to encourage a project started by EQ's creator.

Not sure what is pay to win in these little incentives... 1.5 hour 50% exp ?

a chance to win a guise ? a chance to win a fungi staff ?

I am defenitly considering putting some moeny there with the kickstarter perks plus these.


Well done staff.

Lots of stuff you can do in Velious even with raid mobs depopped to gain a distinct advantage. Off the top of my head:
  • Stormfeather.
  • Plank, etc. for BFG.
  • Log out a mage at WW/Zlandicar (or anywhere) to coth a raid force in when Velious launches for everyone.
  • Skyshrine key, CS portal key.
  • Make and distribute Thurg pots.
  • Camp valuable loot, including stuff like Holgresh Elder Beads and Velium Amulets.
  • Get your warriors/clerics in full quest gear to make day 1 raiding much easier.
  • Farm spells for your guild to have on day 1.

And so on. This is a pretty big advantage for something that doesn't even begin until the $100 price point.

I'm not a fan of exp pots and the raffle items at all, but I'm much more ok with them than the early Velious access.

Smart dude here. its obvious common sense but as we see from so many posters, sense is not so common.

Do this, so it will be hilarious when you find out you're bound at EC tunnel on day 1 velious.
Devs never said this would happen. I can only go by what was said, and that was that only raid mobs would be depopped. Even that is nebulous, will Lodizal be up? Will HoT/PoG trash be up?

Even so, get a Druid and a Mage CS portal keys, and they can easily go set up a coth chain while the rest of your raid force moves towards WW, then coth straight to whatever raid mob you want (probably Zlandicar).
