Let me get this straight... EQ2?

Why in hell are they wasting money making a new game, when they should be spending it on fixing and adding on to their current one?

I see nothing wrong with just having one single EQ, especially one that works as perfectly as possible, with almost no bugs, great class balance, et cetera.

Because they are using a whole new engin to keep up with the competition and thats enough for me . im realy looking forward to the all the new options in character development and the thing with the houses and theaters, sounds interesting.

oh and the economy has grown very corrupt making it hard for new players to start

HARD??? HARD??!??!??!?

You MUST MUST MUST be kidding me.

Back in the day FBRs cost over 1000 platinum. that FBSS? 30k easy. Ykesha? 25k per.

The economy is FAR easier for newbies now.

Back when the game started, you NEVER saw a level 20 in bronze armor, or MAYBE he had a piece or two. But to see a full suit? WOW!

You dont know how easy you have it.

And just what in the hell is wrong with changing around the current EQ? I'm pretty sure they gave it a different graphics engine once before, I don't see why they can't do it again. All the options, items, et cetera can be added on, no biggie.

It has? Gosh, when I played (And I only quit recently) the economy was fine. Either it's gone to hell in just 3 months, or this is a complete lie.

Besides, if EQ's economy really IS "corrupt", as you say, then just what makes you think EQ2's economy won't be just as corrupt within a matter of weeks? Lots of the same players are going to go to EQ2, and guess what happens then.

Unless they give Dwarves blunderbuss longrifles, I see nothing impressive about EQ2.

EQ 2 has a new system where items will not be able to be used as well on lower level character ( no twinking ) and they will also have to be taken care of or they will become broken ( somthing like that, i read it in PC magazine)

The first idea to prevent twinking was already in EQ1, if I'm not mistaken. And if I want my items to break, I'll go play Diablo II.

Like I keep saying, though, I'd get it if there are blunderbuss longrifles in it, or maybe even pistols. BANG BANG!

Because the existing EQ is thoroughly flawed on many fundamental levels. Want to change the way stats work? YOU CAN'T. Want to change the way spells, skills, or class selection works? YOU CAN'T. Want to change the item system, player crafting system, or death penalty system? CAN'T.

Because you can only do so much with a 4 year old game engine that wasn't even that great four years ago.

They're making EQ2 for the same reason they make a sequel to any game. BECAUSE THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH YOU CAN ADD TO A SHITTY OLD GAME.

Sorry but your complaint was completely asinine

I thought the economy on prexus was fine last year.

Full crafed with a level 20 warrior no twinking.

Its hard to have rare and powerful items that no one else does, but playing is much easier. Whether thats good or bad for you is up to you

If all you've got to show for 2 years of play is a level 10 mage, then it's time to go back to remedial gaming, like Pong.

Personally I think that if/when EQ2 is released and if/when I play it, if I do join a guild it will be a guild where the guild leader does not have some unholy obsesstion with poorly drawn women with massive nipples.

He's just trying to make a good guild, since mercy knows all the good ones will be doing that from day -100.

You don't get it.

There is NO release date! Absolutely NO details on how the game actually works!

I was slightly mocking him.

I'm pretty sure that doesn't stop some guilds from planning ahead.


Not YET of course...

Okay, I'm sorry. Details say, "Much suckage potential. Will require a godlike $4000 machine to barely run. Will have crappy engine like its predecessor Shadows of Luclin. Also, is not a rip-off of Dark Age of Camelot. At all. Really."

Hardly an interesting prospect!
