<--Ginzburgh on Dark Crag server. We have like 30 people over here and are making a guild tonight.

[Nusk]

I've been playing Warhammer for over a week now, and it's getting better and more fun every day. I didn't like it at first, but it's actually getting addictive now. I have a 17 Squig Herder on Red Eye Mountain.

I'm not sure. It's full RVR so maybe. The queue time was like an hour and a half at any given time, then they split the server and made another called "Eerie Downs" so people on Dark Crag can move over, which is seems like a ton of people did, but now Eerie Downs has huge queues and Dark Crags rarely exceed 20 minutes. haha.

I stayed on Dark Crag.

chaos or order?

[Lyion]

I played a few weeks of this, and just couldn't get into it. It was like a mediocre WOW clone topped with decent Warhammer mythos, but also a terrible grind and repetitive carrot on a stick PVP system..

I also disliked the class systems and the methodology of PVP.

Plenty seem to enjoy it, and more power to them, but it did nothing for me. Given the fact I played Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay as a teenager and love the history, it's kind of a bummer.

[Atalya]

i am on dark crag chaos side. Dirts the zealot

[Narrock]

Yeah, Warhammer is losing its luster fast. I'm level 26 and bored to death. Can't wait for Wrath of the Lich King.

[Atalya]

it's just going to give you another 300 hours of time sinks to the same game. At least with EQ they tried hard to make a story line out of it. I mean i remember actually caring about the Planes and the background. Since AQ wow's just been vanilla through and through

[Harrison]

and yet you still have masses of stupid fucks paying them to continue to water down the MMO market into a seething mass of suck...

[Atalya]

agreed

[Drem]

and EQ's story still continues, haha. last expansion that gnome Meldrath in steamfont mts opened up some new part of the continent that was previously unexplored. it was pretty cool honestly, to see an expansion that was all about gnomes and kerafyrm. dunno really what's up with the newest one, haven't touched it yet, but it has to do with going back to parts of norrath in the past. the qeynos hills of the past is fuckin badass... i played that zone when they let us use it for a test run before the exp launched. same layout as the old zone and everything. just prettier and for lvl 80+

[Harrison]

EQ died for me when items started having 400+ hp. That's fucking stupid.

Mudflation ftl.

[Atalya]

i remember when it was the rumour of there being a problem with the coding for items in EQ so they couldn't go past 127 in any stat. lol

Mudflation ftl.

If they kept the levels and gear the same as it was 10 years ago it'd probably have as many subscribers as asheron's call

i don't even see the issue. everything's scaled accordingly. you still get your raped like a little school girl if you step out of your league. i was playing for a bit a couple months ago and kinda caught up to like 16k hp / 3k ac and i'm still way, way behind everybody else in PoN. the game's just as fun as it ever was if you want it to be. and you know you still have to option to just ignore everything else and turn your AA xp on at lvl 60 and gear yourself in old gear. i have a monk twink that i keep in velious, essentially, and since i can clear plane of growth solo on my shd in a couple hours, i hooked him up with all kind of cool shit. and 10sun and sutiea and i went and rocked bristlebane and i got his mace for him, too. running a lvl 51 thru mischief was fun

anyway, i still like it. now i can do solo what it used to take a raid to do in velious, so it's even more fun imo. i think 10sun and i killed velketor and he had to click heal one time during the fight heh. we can drop AoW like butter too. it's awesome. then after you twink your little newbies out you go try to fight stuff like you did 6 years ago and get your ass beat. i just wish i knew more people that liked doing that kind of twinking... most ppl just take theirs all the way

[10sun]

i think 10sun and i killed velketor and he had to click heal one time during the fight heh. we can drop AoW like butter too.

Velk I can do w/o using direct heals at all. AoW I can solo now

The thing about mudflation is bringing the non-raiders closer to the raiders in gear parity; unfortunately they made some huge leaps and it skewed things considerably, but with the most recent expansion they have made progress to bringing non-raiders back between 2/3 & 3/4 the power of raiders.

[Drem]

lol you can solo him now?

and ya about all those other things. i also think they were completely necessary. as EQ slowly becomes the Magic Cards of MMOs in terms of expansions, you have to expect them to give players an easy alternative to getting gear that's on par with demi. it's crazy to expect players to trudge thru five shitty expansions (compared to the new ones) just to get caught up. and by that time there's probably five more expansions anyway. they're keeping the game in great shape imo. i even agree with them not really caring about MQ, because imo it doesn't really ruin anything unless you're a stupid bitch that abuses it. it just saves you a whole bunch of time, which is something i don't like to waste a lot of. not to mentio nthis game is based of DIKU muds, and i've never known a mud you couldn't set up triggers and macros in. and macroed EQ + homework = $$

i have no desire whatsoever to ever start another MMO /shrug

i can't even play the free EQ emulators, like tallon/vallon or shards.... because they're not as good as EQ is now. not even close
