eq2 actualy has a very good community atm. Might be becoes everyone has gone together against the common enemy; soe...

Thats brilliant =D

In the new expansions they've raised the size of the zones. One zone for example is lvl 1-20 and contains the 3rd major city

And yet you stil havn't said what's wrong whith the original post! Only saying he's way off track won't help anyone!
And you say that you can't complain on a game that isn't in beta, well, first of all, devs havn't come up whith ANYTHING new, as far as i've red and i've red most of it. Just new maps, new mobs, new lore and new graffics. And that's about the only difference from wow, sorry guys.
You can't defend something whithout arguments, and i think this thread proves it, noone has ay arguments for why the original post is wrong.
And so, if we can't complain on a game that isn't in beta, then why the hell are you sitting here wanking of to a game that isn't in beta, and has nothing to come whith?!

Thats right, I really am, and heres why.

 This game is gonna give the best PVP/guild system of all time, with great crafting, housing beyond compare, quests that are'nt just fed-ex kill 15 rats then kill 20 more, a game thats so immersive you'll crap your pants because you thought it was a game function and not real life.

 Now I'll translate what you'll really get. Lets start with movement, you'll get what I like to call the six-million-dollar-man movement as in WOW movement. I've never seen legs move so damn slow in all my life, I gotta tell ya if people's legs moved that slow it would take me 20 minutes to walk from my front door to my car. I only played that dumb down version of a real mmorpg for a few months, I have a kick ass system and I still lagged which is incredible considering how slow you moved initially.

 The pvp will be a joke, of course they'll be no looting, hell that might actually be exciting. Your skills will mean nothing, all that will matter is your gear. Stick a noob in epic gear and hes the man. The fighting will be slow and boring and one class will rule them all, probably a rogue. 

 The crafting will be dumbed down, crush a flower ina bottle and viola a pot. Get a recipe dropped from a flaming warble, add 2 parts mitheral silver 1 part dragon puke wiggle your ass and crap out a dragon chest plate that adds +10 to your warble resist but lowers your zingadoo resist while slightly increasing your one handed mace speed while riding west on thursdays. ITS SO DAMN REALISTIC.

 Linear, linear, linear, I'm sure I wont be able to leave this area until I level up to a certain level, then I can move to my next tiny spot where I level up some more so that I can go further with each five levels I earn. Why not just tie a bib around my throat so I can at least throttle myself with it. Let me go where ever I damn well please.

 Housing will come at a later date (see patch 12.564.89.762).

 Now lets go questing. Get quest from npc A, kill 4 angry bunnies, deliver to npc B. But the fun does'nt end there, oh no indeed fellow adventurers, npc B needs you to deliver a box to npc C who needs you to fill the box with 12 really angry bunny butts to be deliver to npc A. Then you get expierence. If any of you ever played sports such as golf you know that your gaining expierence while you play NOT at the clubhouse eating your meal, which of course is payed for by the loser.

 After all this time I'm playing UO on a free server, Its the second oldest mmorpg and its still the best. PVP with looting, fast movement, custom housing, decent crafting, skill based, an excellent working economy, great comunity. How the hell can this old timer have it all, and all of the new crap is just that, crap.

 Oh call me cynical but I'll bet ya dollars to doughnuts that if you have three brain cells, and fits where you repeatedly bang you head against your keyboard you'll do just fine in this game.
