If only Seth would love me like I love him!

I am absolutely going to play some goddamn anarchy online in 2019

I have no idea what class I'm going to play I like all of them

but let's be honest probably just roll a nano technician and kite my way to Glory

Or perhaps an enforcer or doctor

Or I could just roll a trader

i wish they would do something like soe and have a silver account with light restrictions so i could at least login to my old paid account and look around and check out my characters

From the stream, resubbing your old account will enable you to log into both the old and new servers (i.e. single $15 will count as a sub for both servers).

quick, what's the most overpowered profession or profession combo in vanilla AO

were crats ridiculous at launch as well or naw

Hm, trying to remember what I played.

Fixer is cool if you got grid armor but their vanilla damage was kinda meh since they only have burst.

Agent was in a pretty decent place way the hell back then, aimed shots were 15k with a relatively short cooldown (compared to soldier fullauto etc etc). I wonder if pvp damage will be uncapped as it used to be?

I think pet professions were always pretty good? Even engineer.

Did they say when the server will actually be up by the way? Also wonder how the business model will be. If it's still the most expensive mmo sub + p2w cash shop on top of that, I will actually pass this, nostalgia or no.

No heckler juice, pvp caps still in, and vanilla crats sucked

Fixer for sure for selling buffs and blitzing missions. Also grid armor. God drat what a good class. I remember starting as an Agent at launch and holy poo poo my mind was blown.

I think this is great, but my one what the gently caress moment is, $15/month... really? I basically refuse to pay that for this game seeing as they've stated it's in maintenance mode and will not get any new content updates.

If they dropped the price even to $10/month it would be somewhat palatable, but not the price you pay for an mmo that has active ongoing development.

If people were playing it it would be worth $15/mo

I tried playing this game a few months back and actually really enjoyed it.

But the $15 a month price point is mind baffling to me. I would probably continue to play if it were maybe half that amount. But, the game is not worth playing if you're not a subscriber imo, there's just too much content that you don't have access too as a F2P player.

The server starts with no expansions and a low level cap (10).

Did they drop a zero or is this the worst Hell ever invented by man?

A new Anarchy Online server in TYOOL 2019? Man this is really tempting.

But if you max level right now is 10, what am I supposed to do after 30 minutes?

The level cap actually is 10 and it's hilarious to raid absmouth without high level buffs or tradeskills

Felt great to blitz together a set of QL 30 implants (couldn't put on higher without some major effort since I'm blitzing 2k credits at a time and don't have SFA, behe, or any of that poo poo)

Logging for the night, but tomorrow I'm going to put on an illegal ofab SMG at level 10, a trivial achievement on live, but a pretty drat sweet one on here.

From Massivelyop:

quote:

The devs do say that the cash shop will be live, but they’ve pulled some of the more overpowering bits. You’ll need to roll up a brand-new character to jump in, and nope, you won’t be able to take this character elsewhere if and when this server closes down. Have fun in the meantime!

I want to play, but I'd be pissed if the server didn't take off and my character was deleted, considering how much time it takes to max out in this game.

Hmh, Funcom is really loving up advertising this server. I haven't even gotten an email or anything. If someone hadn't mentioned it here, I'd have no idea this was even a thing.

How's the population atm? The original servers must be rotten dead with this population split.
