Everquest II

MMORPG is happy to announce a new project called, "Dear Devs". Have all your Everquest II questions answered!

Please include "Letter to the Devs" in the subject line.

*Note- All letters will be given careful consideration. Not all letters will receive a reply. Letters will be hand selected and submitted by MMORPG.com to the Everquest II development team. Please continue to watch the site to see if your letter was answered.

Wonderful. Maybe we won't have to hear the complaints here much anymore and they'll go where they should. To the devs.

Do you honestly think they'd submit them? or get a reply if they did..

Quick, everyone ask them if they'll ever make their game work well with today's technology. :P

No, seriously :[

I am on it...my major pet peeve, and I will so be on top of that question.

Thanks

UPDATE::::

Here is my letter guys...whatcha think?

_____________________________________________

We know the game engine is getting on in age, and that maybe the development of the engine was made for a different type of hardware...but, at this point, many threads on the tech support forums exists about the many shortcomings of the engine with todays latest hardware.
Whether it is the 8800 series video cards, no Dual Core support or even simple things like missing shadows...we as a community would like a final answer on if any of these issues will be addressed.
Myself, like many others I believe would be happy without one or two "content" updates to let you strictly focus on performance instead...can this be done? We would prefer to not hear "We are looking into it" and more of a Yes, we plan to start fixing the engine say within 3 months...or just No, we cannot fix it.

Thank you

I'd expect your reply on the 12th of never :)

*note* not trying to bash you hehe, sry if it came off that way. You have a good question, but i just dont think you will get a response =\

Don't worry guys...I know I will not be picked either, I already have relegated the question to someone asking

"Whats the next expansion based on?"

or

"How did you come up with the design of Gorowyn"

In so many words..."Yawn"

I still believe this is the most serious question, and the one THAT NEEDS to be asked.

Later guys

Well, I sent in my e-mail asking about it.  Maybe if we get enough people to send in enough, they'll reply :P

May I ask...how long is this going on?

I also posted this to the tech forums for SOE. Hopefully we will have an influx of this type of letter writing. The tech issue is the single most important problem right now with the game as content is right where it needs to be...

Because we all know, when it comes to content...EQ2 has all beat!

my questions and concerns also deal with the unaddressed issues with the 8800 series cards, non-dualcore support, and crappy shadows disappearing. overall horrendous uneven performance. As others Im wondering if this will ever get addressed or should I just cancel now, and forget the game, as I have more than adequate system that is not being utilized by the engine of this game. it makes me wonder as a consumer/customer if they even care about my concerns and are only worried about getting money. if this issue does not in fact get addressed I will have no choice but to up and leave to "greener pastures"such as e.g. AOC which I already pre-ordered. SOE is slowly running out of time, and this engine that Eq2 is not built for the future, at least not our future
