Everquest II

Vets continue to distroy this game for new players.Just the beginners zones have population, they are a mix of new players and high lv. alts.

You find your self feeling good in the beginning ( free trial). You buy  the game and its all down hill from there. Vets will not give you the time of day,  guild or no guild its the same.

Thousands start EQ2 every month and the same quit !

The only way to fix this game is to make servers for ONlY new players and keep the vets out. As it stands now, your only chance is if you have a dynamic personality, already great at grouping and never ever let anyone know you played WOW.

I'm mad because its a good game gone bad,and the deves don't care because they continue to sell this game over and over, only to keep the same players.

Done even think about telling me I'm wrong and Vets should not respond with there helping new players out comments ( helping with one quest is not help)

you must have all chat channels turned OFF

on Blackburrow server - players are very helpful

I found that the chat community in EQ2 is terrible, more so than any other MMO out there. Vets have a field day with new players. Everything is way above your head and beginners questions are ignored or rude replies.  ALL new players get this I watch the chat and see this continuously.

Like I say thousands start and the same quit, Why ?    Because of vets !

Well , i play on the Runnyeye server , and there the community isvery helpfull and respectfull , have you tried to change server ? <.<

Alot of people are leaving the Nagafen Server because (as usual) SOE did not listen to the player base and has eliminated level locking. They went in favor of new players and forcing eveyone to go to lvl 80. Consequently, many longstanding T2, T3 PVP players are leaving.

Last time I was on Nagafen it looked like Vox, a ghost town.

SOE despite their claims to the contrary just won't listen to the established player base. They didn't learn from SWG and now EQ2. I hope that subscription levels for EQ2 continue to decline. Since SOE is always going to be a player here, one can only hope that declining revenues will someday force them to really LISTEN.

Also, some vets could be disgruntled because the game was changed in favor of the newbs. You could be experiencing some of that anger.

I had a different experience with EQ2. The vets on Antonia Bayle server were nothing but nice to us n00bs. I would try that server; being a RP Server people tend to be more mature.

I do have to agree about the empty areas except n00b zones. But the game is so big people will be spread out more.

bugger it, nevermind.

Yes .. Because its just So unfair that Long standing Nagefen players can't Sit at lvl 20 and Twink out their character so they can destroy all the Noobs daring to attempt to play on PVP server with Noob gear....its just a Crime.  

PvP was fubar'd from the start in EQ2, the game was designed for PvE which is why they took over a year to even put a PvP server up (could of been shorter but I remember it was a rather long wait).    Personally I dont think PvP belongs in EQ2 not because PvP is evil but the balancing issues seem to cause more chaos then they're worth not to mention all the bitchers that they can't sit and gank people anymore.

Dude, my twink enjoyed fighting other twinks. Some people griefed I am sure, but SOE never could understand that the level locked twinks enjoyed fighting the other level locked twinks. That was a blast. And now it's no more. We didn't lock so we could gank noobs. We locked because that's where the best PVP was.
