Tashan Dorrsett posted:Holocaust is Empire and now the dominant force/zerg on the server. Other Guys is their alt guild and Kingsguard is their 55 twink/griefer guild. TMO is a top blue server guild that moved to red server pretty recently. Currently the server's undergeared resistance guild. Good guys disbanded and most of their members are currently applying to TMO. Azrael is reforming, but many of their members went to TMO. Fresh is gone, thunderdome is the server leveling guild. Friends and Slosh are still around, while Flowers of Happiness is MIA. Lite is back, and there are rumors Nizzar will return. Most goons including myself are in TMO or unguilded right now, but there's definitely goons in Empire. Yeah, this. In my experience, basically Empire and Kingsguard are the ones to distrust and always worry about if they're in the same zone as you. They actively did their best to train everyone to death in Kael and ignore LNS and so on and so forth last night. TMO can be a little jumpy but most are super chill when you message them and mention knowing various goons in their guild.

Pwnz0r posted:On red, I personally sat at the kael/WL ZL for a few hours, and I must have coined a dozen people for 200pp alone, in total group got around 90 kills, more then half were otw to get their CS key. Bragging about being in the guild that's making Velious unplayable right now? ... very nice

Anarch posted:Can you imagine trying to raid? Or actually do anything for that matter? EQ is practically built around players dying to NPCs, and with PVP in the mix it'll be absolute hell Good grief... they should just remove role/anon flags while they're at it. No one will try to raid, it's an excuse to have fun, ultra high stakes, ultra frustrating PVP. The timespan will be so short, though, that it won't be like Red where there are a hundred best-in-set PVP types and even the average person has years worth of gearing - which currently makes new players have a near-impossible time trying to kill anyone.

Pillow Armadillo posted:Another good thing about bards are their ability to PL groups with that AoE chords song. I'm sure whoever plays on the server will need that at some point. Gonna need to be perfect and have a rock steady connection, though - a split second of lag or turning slightly too quick at the wrong time and you're permadead.

Ashenden posted:Curious to hear what you guys are doing, not so interested in the idea of being buddies with Empire but I guess it's how you have to survive on Red99. 54 Monk / 52 Bard here. Haha, same - after Empire spent two months constantly shittalking and warring with TMO and generally being the terrible, cheating, RMTing people we all know Empire to be, it's a little odd to hear.

Toxx posted:Thanks for the feedback. I had a 58 Wizard and sold the account around luclin time. I have no visions of getting that high on p99, so perhaps I'll stick with the Bard for now. For swarm soloing - which was easy on red and I assume much more of a pain on blue - you need practically nothing, other than maybe https://wiki.project1999.com/Mistmoore_Battle_Drums for sheer convenience. It's definitely a friendly class for those without a lot of gear early on.

smiling giraffe posted:Classic p99 was a product of its time and place. Theres no point trying to replicate that, we're all older now and have too many responsibilities and too little time for a green server. I'd play Project Project 1999, where P1999's timetable was meticulously recreated.

Arven posted:Are there any other servers like P1999 that have a reasonably sized playerbase but don't have a hyper-inflated mess of an economy? I tried playing Agnarr back when it launched but its economy broke in about a week due to Krono and is in the same state now. Sounds like you should try red instead - no shortages of mobs at all.

Athropos posted:Holy crap did the east commons tunnel degrade in my absence. Been trying to sell common items like FBSS, Darksea Harpoon and Granite Face Grinder under the average price for like 2 days and only got tells begging for trades. All the turbonerds are probably so rich they dont buy midrange stuff anymore. All the same people selling the same poo poo for days too, means nobody is buying jack. Just get me out of here. i don't understand why the servers are never, ever rebooted after so many years of utterly destroyed economies

A Strange Aeon posted:Reading about later expansions is so weird--they made a raid where Fippy Darkpaw is the badass big bad and by defeating him, you punish him by being reincarnated as a lowbie forced to rush into Qeynos and get murdered by guards every 6 minutes. Or those murders were fueling a dark ritual or something, I can't remember, but it's such a strange callback. remember that monster you killed as a lowbie? he's literally in a Sisyphean hell for eternity

insider posted:Sirken unremoved and everything back to normal. lmao quote:I would also like to address the method that this situation came to be. Personally, I'm quite pissed off that I have to find out things like this from a post on an external website. As if nobody actually thought to themself, hmm I think it would be a good idea for Rogean or Nilbog to take a look at these screenshots. For 2 years it was sit on, and instead of coming to us at any point, I stumble across them on an offsite thread. The method to report such behavior is and always has been a Forum PM to myself and/or nilbog. Do not send it on a communication medium that I haven't used for over a year, and don't bury it within a 50 page essay of all the other opinionated circumstantial disputes as if it's some surprise at the end. There's a distinctive difference between opinionated disputes ("Soandso ruled against my guild and is only banning my players") and definitive evidence of a misuse of access ("Here's proof Soandso gave away information and summoned Prismatic Weapons for someone"). The latter needs to be reported immediately and unfiltered. I don't ever want to hear that someone didn't report a serious breach of policy because "We reported raid dispute favoritism and nothing was done, why would you do something about this". I've made a lot of changes over the years to keep staff members accountable to each other, including command logs viewable on Discord for all Senior+ Guides (Even my own commands, you can see an example here). Commands alone sometimes do not show us the true intention, and for that we will always rely on the community to report suspicious behavior.

aparmenideanmonad posted:The best thing I can say about this is that I've got another reason to stop myself from playing on here again. I'll take any self-control assistance I can get with holiday time-off coming up. Yeah, I've only been keeping an eye to see if they ever open a new server or wipe anything (since all my old characters are on red and it appears to be less playable than ever) but.. yeah that's probably never happening.

DizzyBum posted:If I end up installing this to play on Green, I doubt I'd have much time to play. If I'm a brand-new player that just wants to mess around and level and maybe make some money, what class should I roll? I'm thinking Druid for being solo-friendly, not as gear-dependent, and being able to port people for cash. i def had a fun time leveling a druid on red solo, it's easy enough and yeah, the mobility is really, really convenient. also i think the change where dots only do half damage on creatures that are moving doesn't get patched in until later?
