Default Project 1999 <> Rallos Zek

I am at this moment crying out to Project 1999 staff members
to please consider hosting or in anyway help
in the creation of a working oldschool PvP server.

Right now there is no pvp server worth playing on.

Posting this because i want the discussion.

You know P99 has their own forums? If you want to request something from them, I would suggest there.

1: I am not requesting anything right now. I am only trying to get a discussion going.
And it just so happends that P99 is sitting on the key for this debate.

2: This is Eqemulator forum. Where would i get a discussion going about this other then here?
P99 forums would probably just bash me because 90% of the playerbase on P99 is against PvP.
I want everyone on EqEmu to be able to talk about this. = Eqemulator.org/forums

That was the quote that led viewers to "think" you were addressing the
Project 1999 server staff. But if you look through these forums, you will
notice that the "PvP" server concept has been discussed a lot.
This one in particular :

Are you trying to derail my thread?

The reason i am naming Project 1999 is because they are
the only once who have a solid old world database.

And yes i have seen that post. I would say around 300 players
on the EqEmu would like to play a PvP server.
But there is no good PvP server.

So PvP players like myself leave EqEmu.
Why? Because there is nothing worth playing.
I only see possibility in an Project 99 PvP server.
Server would be swarming with players. Everyone i know would play.

I just really want to have a serious discussion about this.
Can it be done? Or is it just a dream?

i see how your posting here, but if your directing P1999 you create the server i would bring up with their GM's vs on here. but i see why your posting here, your trying to see if anyone else can make a old work PVP.

I'm sure it'd be possible... I don't know anything about the creation of servers, but I'm assuming that duplicating a server is simple because many servers have Test Servers. Using the same code, the same everything, and just enabling pvp sounds really easy, however, I highly doubt P99 would be willing to do such a thing. Why? Because they don't want less of a playerbase, no server does.

So the only hope is to have some devoted developer/coder/team to create this pvp server, which is very unlikely. The pvp community is tough... I only play everquest for the pvp, but due to unbalances and several factors a big chunk of people don't like the pvp.

Default We need old world PvP!

My friends and I are in the same boat as you Digitala.

The PvP populatin is dying off right now because there is no where for us to turn.

If I could copy/paste P1999 PvP I'd do it in an instant but looks I'm going to have to start coding tonight and maybe I'll have something worth playing in a year.

Thx for the input. Very constructive....
You obviously don't know anything about PvP on EqEmu.

But that aside, me and a friend of mine just started working on a server.
It's gonna take awhile before we can lunch and we can't promise anything.

Saw Mr: High-End Rogean talking with Voidd on vztz forums. So i guess they could be starting something.
But that will probably take time since Rogean already has P99 to work on, with Kunark release and all.
And i have no faith in Voidd as a Server OP for obvious reasons.

You are all gonna have to wait a while before anything major is gonna happen.
Peace!

If p1999 does put up a pvp server, it will not be because you wanted it. You want it so bad, put it up yourself. There are a ton of headaches that come with a pvp server.

And don't spam up the board here about it. You can bug me about it over there, but I will just ignore you. You are not helping your cause by posting about it here. Quite the opposite in fact.

It is really too bad that a small portion of the PVP player base has ruined it for everyone else. It is bad enough that they made VTZ unbearable to play... but now people are afraid to even touch a pvp server due to the rep these select few have given the pvp community.
