Omg is that a genuine video of classic? I played on Povar, I remember both triton and rising ascension. The UI looks classic.

EDIT: Damn, it is. Actual footage of EQ from 2001. Framerate is even decent.

Yea same as modern MMO’s. I have a co-worker playing FF14 who says I can play that F2P for a while with him

If I’m going to be accepting balancing buffs/nerfs (let’s be real there’s zero chance this going to be a buff to charming) then I’ll just play a modern MMO with an actual endgame like instanced raiding. I picked a museum piece for the museum aspect

If FF14 isn’t a P2W shithole like WoW classic became then I’d even be down to pay, just like I was down to donate to P99 a few times

'On a whim' is an unfair description of what modifying anything about charm would entail. Actually, the overwhelming majority of code changes are not simple. That is why game mechanics receive fewer modifications, and less often.

There are still open bug reports dating back 10 years of unresolved issues because specific, necessary details haven't been found in research or testing. Does that mean they won't ever change? Nope.



This hasn't changed though. From what it looks like, it should.


Since I've already typed some paragraphs, I will elaborate.

When there is a game mechanics issue, there are processes that need to be done prior to changing anything whatsoever. How does it currently function? How should it function? Is there evidence how it should function?

At this point, someone needs to sign up to code for hours or days to achieve the goal. They construct a rough idea of interpolation of desired effects based on existing data. Testing, testing, testing. Do the test results align with the goal? Refine, retest, retest, etc. Do the results of the change(s) adhere to the original goal?

If yes, respond to an existing bug thread and/or post a patch note. If no, scrap the idea, no one knows anything even happened, and the aforementioned perception of stability remains intact.

Here are some details outlined by Torven in an eqemulator thread if anyone cares:

http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=43370
I appreciate the explanation and good work on P99

I personally just don’t deal well with change, that’s not why I picked this server

It’s a me issue, not a you issue. Best of luck on P99

That is a whole lot of data.

Thank you Nilbog for the explanation

Looking forward to the changes.
