EQ2 Progression Servers

[Ozryc]

Can not wait for these. Beta next month so coming fast. I am personally all in with the PvP server as one who was there for Nagafen's launch. You can follow the discussion on the official forums here. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq2/index.php?threads/pvp-time-locked-server-discussion-thread.560717/page-28#post-6211782

This will be an opportunity to set right the wrongs that wrecked Nagafen. And as one who hasn't been interested in any new content in Norrath or other games this is just what the doctor ordered.

Old vets and new players alike ought to take the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a new server. And if you love overland pvp it is a no brainer.

FAQ for the new progression servers. For pvp the initial details are promising.

I was in at launch on Venekor (one of the 4 pvp servers, but merged later on), and agree with Ozryn. There wasn't any game more fun than that.

Once everyone figured out how to hack for gear (meet qeynosian friends and kill each other endlessly in Nektulos for tokens, anyone?), and 'balance' started to happen...then that was kind of sad. But for the first year...worth every minute spent.

I am looking forward to these as well. I think we will never get that shiny new feeling back - that's kind of like the first time you were really impressed at the Millenium Falcon going light speed in Star Wars. That can't happen again. But I do think the game was a lot of fun way back when. I think this might breathe new life into the game.

This will be great I will love running though the old zones in gear I didnt buy or grind for.

Guys, how can I buy an account activation on the US version. Used to play RU EQII but it counts as separate game :( Rly looking into these progression servers. Searched the off site but all I see - it is DLCs and SC.

It starts tomorrow for a beta..So excited

It's a mega fun thing. People will be multibotting and playing shadowkninghts and conjurers en masse or any easy solo class. Every group will consist of friends and no need for strangers.

Then after 1,5 years servers will be ghosttowns just like the other everquest servers ever put out.

And there I foresaw the future.

Well yeah -- but it's not going to last forever ... hell, these are video games not real life, but even real life has an expiration date. It's about how much fun you can have before that happens!

If you want to build something lasting I advise looking outside the digital world.

The TLE servers go "live" July 21..I don't think they will though..They still need to do so much tweeking in the servers

[LEGACY]

I was also worried about the TLE servers going live so soon. But it's day 3 now and it's been great.

You need 'all access' to join these servers, but it's worth it to me. I can't stop smiling while I'm running around the old zones again with players everywhere and enemies back to their original strength (not all, but a lot of them are). And xp gain is also back to being REALLY slow, which I think is great. I been playing a lot and only made it to level 17. People stick around in the lower dungeons for days now before moving on to the next thing.

And the devs will continue to work on making improvements.
And we'll have ingame polls as well to decide what makes it into the game.

I'm more than happy with the TLE servers at the moment. I stepped in EQ2 way too late (2009) and got extremely overwhelmed by all that it offered. Now with the TLE servers getting back to the origins of the game I'm ready to get a fresh start and play the game from it's earliest incarnations. Only thing I'm kinda sad about is that the 2 new races are included in the game while the newer classes are not...
