Vanguard was awesome even with all its problems. I’m excited for this game because even if we get just what that game was, it will be worth it.

I was actually avoiding posting much in this thread because I was optimistic but after seeing the same dungeon AGAIN consider me off the hype train. Brad, you always break my little EQ heart.

I’m unashamedly excited for this game. Yes it’s McQuaid and lol their kickstarter failed and it’s going to be in development forever and may never see the light of day. That being said I hope this video game about wizards comes out because I will play it.

It might have had to do with the insane queues to log in at launch. Blizzard had to make new servers daily for almost a week and ask people to use them so the queues would die down.

If you type /pizza in the game now it just opens a browser window with a Google Image search for pizza.

Chomposaur posted:Didn't /pizza just open up an in-game browser tab to the Pizza Hut website anyway? I think you’re right. But alt-tabbing didn’t work as well back then as it does now. It used to be a pain to tab in and out if I recall. They should modernize with a /DoorDash command.

I said come in! posted:When you die, your loot stays and monsters can loot your corpse, forcing you to kill them and get the gear back. If another player kills them first they get to keep the gear. Ngl that sounds pretty rad. Which means it won’t end up in Pantheon.

Is the plan still just to work on Project Fart-hell until an investor picks it up and funds a full team? I just can’t see that happening. They would have been better off trying to do a full MMO by themselves. At this point they could have finished off maybe 1 continent.

Themoor posted:Still hoping it turns into something there is no other mmos coming. Idk if you just aren’t counting these because maybe you think they look bad, but Ashes of Creation is an upcoming AAA fantasy mmo with a dev team of more than 100 (many veterans of the industry as well) and Amazon’s New World just to name a couple that will actually release unlike Pantheon.

New Worlds will not be good but is not vaporware/a scam like Pantheon. The sad part is I say this as an original Kickstarter backer.

A friend and I were looking at Vanguard emulators and as it turns out, they have even less a population than live did which means zero instead of 5.

Subjunctive posted:Yeah, they only attracted about half of their $800K target, so unless they did it again on a "flexible funding" platform that I can't find, they didn't get a dime. I do recall that as soon as the KS failed they set up a donation page and encouraged everyone to donate the amount they submitted through Kickstarter. I know this because I’m a sucker.

hobocrunch posted:I don't think it is. I actually believe this game will release. Will it be good? I think it's extremely unlikely it captures the same essence people are expecting and it will come off more as boring rather than ingenious, but time will tell. I don’t think they even have a single zone completed.

They may make it to alpha before the 10 year mark. Probably not. It’s hilarious to me that we’re on 7 years and they have only a compressed demo to show investors and nothing else.

I really don’t know how one can defend this game. Brad or not, I feel like the last several years were complete lies with them saying how much content was complete and being polished, only to find out not even a single zone had even been close to finished.

I mean best case scenario this game, which just started development apparently, will come out in 5-7 years. Don’t we think after 12-14 years of being in development that the tech will be obsolete? That gaming interest will have moved on? Who, who was excited about Pantheon when it was first announced, will still be actively excited for the games release after a decade and a half?

Rift had chloromancer which remains the coolest class I’ve ever played in an MMO. Heal your group by doing as much damage as possible.

Vanguard suffered greatly in my opinion when they instituted the newbie island. I understand that they had to because of the low population but having separate and distinct racial starting areas was so good. I remember starting a half giant shaman and getting really immersed in the lore via the quests and diplomacy.

Groovelord Neato posted:I jumped into actual EverQuest for a hot minute with a couple friends a year or so ago before I tried P1999 and EQ also did something lame like that. Ah yes the gloomingdeep mines or w/e they’re called. I miss the days of newbie gardens being chock full of new players and old players making alts. The newbie garden I think of most often is Misty Thicket, while I feel most nostalgic for Innothule Swamp. In 1999 as a 12 year old I was blown away by EQ and I’ve not felt the immersion I felt after making my troll Shadowknight ever again. I think that’s most people’s experience with MMOs though. We look back with rose tinted glasses and want to feel what we felt again, but we never will. LuckyCat fucked around with this message at 21:37 on Mar 15, 2021 |

Sachant posted:Gfay was popular on some servers since there was a bank right there and it wasn't too hard for evils to get faction from killing orcs in Crushbone. Plus it had a wizard teleport right there and a druid teleport one zone over in BB. But yeah EC was a better pick. Very central, close to teleport circles and banks for everyone (except Iksar I guess). If you were an Iksar SK, monk, or Necro (so, most Iksar) you could just run to the Freeport bank and feign death while you did your banking.

For me, the Ec tunnel was a social thing where you could see everyone’s cool armor and weapons. I remember being a sub-level 20 troll SK and just blown away by how diverse and interesting everyone in the tunnel was. Hated haggling though. Everyone was so entitled with their items and if you offered less than asking or tried to haggle it would become “stop wasting my time you noob.” Given almost everyone playing eq back in 99-01 was a teenager I guess that makes sense.
