Broken lootdrop_id that were dropping 50% of the time that only contain Bronze Spear and Cloth pants. Lootdrop_id that had every item that the creature could possibly drop in a single lootdrop_id, meaning that research, weapons, armor, gems, rations, bags, etc all dropping from the same table.

There is a ton of stuff that is really half assed that had to be fixed. All of the developers on the project put a lot of work into fixing things that we felt just weren't done right.

One query Nil ran made something like 74000 changes?

This hasn't been easy or small by any stretch.
That's what I figured. I just couldn't determine the direction of the statement he had made. I can't imagine the amount of work you've put in. I'll be on your server soon.

What's the point of rhetoric? This isn't Duke Nukem Forever :P

Anyways, in other news, prekunark is ready to go. Just finalizing some stuff with hardware.. will make further updates when they are available.

If there is anything you would like to verify in prekunark before launch, now's the time to check it out. All prekunark zones currently running static and things look great imo.

I wouldn't cal you a rite, more of a move, mayhaps even a step or procession, but certainly not a rite. Besides, who has time for rites anymore? Takes days, have to find a virgin, and all the chicken blood. Do you have any idea how little blood chickens have? Takes dozens for a good rite these days.

We don't have a development schedule. We are working to make a classic server. If it takes 2 years, it takes 2 years. The amount of stuff we've changed to revert things is literally daunting to even think about. I scripted almost 300 quests alone by taking info from anywhere I could find it. Added the aggro speeches to the mobs in hate as well as the zone emotes. We've worked really hard on not failing at classic & I think we've done a decent job of dodging fail.

That's enough, sasaluge. You have been doing nothing but putting this server down repeatedly in this thread. Either don't post, or post something nice. Bad mouthing servers is against the forum rules and this is a warning. It seems like half or more of your total posts are either making fun of someone, their server, putting them down, or a combination of those 3. Whether you are joking or not, it is hard to tell. Either way, please stop it.

keep working on what sounds to be a fun server!

please disregard sasaluge,he probably wont be around much longer, at least not under that troll account. hopefully the powers that be will ban all the forum/login server accounts associated with his IP.

why? well... maybe because of this?

eep! sorry didnt stop to check it out. humm mebbe somthing due to the method im linking by causing that.

'tis just a link to Sasaluge's post history.

I probably shouldn't have even made this post as its not really my affair. I dont post often but i still stop by near-daily, just get tired of checking new threads to see whatswhat and end up reading negative comment after negative comment that all are ultimately non-constructive and generally makes visiting a thread an unpleasnt experience.

still, this should have probably been one of those moments where one types out a thread then goes back and deletes it rather than posting ,as in the end im causing yet more drama rather than helping in any way...

Sorry guys.

That's not the truth at all.. at least as far as the duration of my server.

There's not really a point in responding to you.. but what the hell, until your "rites" are revoked, I suppose I need to defend myself.

I have to say, Conifer, that was an excellent post! I played from beta through the release of PoP but quit for good, never to return, shortly after that. Like you, I began to feel very disconnected with EQ. All of my RL friends that I played EQ with became disenchanted with EQ much sooner and quit right before or very shortly after the release of Luclin. Before I quit for good also, I realized that the game had gone too far. It began to deviate from my desired EQ experience with Luclin's release.

At Project 1999, you have a huge job to do as I'm sure you're all aware of. You have the chance to make the hopes and dreams of many people come true. I look forward to the chance to see the original vision of EQ as close as possible come to life again.

Classic all the way baby!

Also, an addon to Conifer's travel post. I agree that no access to #zone or existence of PoK would be the best thing and give it the best classic feel. An alternative to his suggestion of the translocators are ancient runes. These runes have to be looted, have unlimited charges and teleport the user to the respective druid rings or wizard spires.

Just a thought.
