I don't like the way you've used hardcore. Yes, if classic EQ was still around today it would be for the diehard EQ fans. Would you call someone who still uses a rotary phone over a touch tone hardcore, or someone who refused to admit the world has evolved? A hardcore game doesn't really have to have 10 minute med times. I would agree with the harsh death penalties, though. Tthe EQ grind of today is nothing like it once was, mainly because that is not the focus of the game like it was in classic EQ. I can level much faster in EQ, than WoW. Given how easy it is to twink, and all the new things that have been added to make leveling less of a journey.
If your talking about PvP, EQ is the worst PvP game ever. In classic EQ a level one could equip any item. Not exactly balanced, is it? Most definitely not hardcore, that is EZ mode.
Its easier to be a jerk, than a responsible thinking person. That's all there is to it. Just pure laziness and thoughtlessness.
The only bad thing about DAoC is that it take other players to have fun. The population is just not high enough to sustain any sort of RvR. Even Thid is empty now.
Hey, I haven't played since 2004, and I am completely lost. I thought I read that you can solo a lot easier now than before. So I had a mission up, and I went to do it. I was destroyed on my first encounter.
Ok, so can you solo or not? I remember leaving in 2004, because once you got to about level 8 or so it was too difficult to solo and I hate being lfg staring at my screen.
Secondly, how in the world do you even look for groups or flag lfg? I saw no options on the menu, and /lfg failed to produce a result.
Thanks for any help, as I am completely at a lost, since its been close to 4 years since I last played.
Thanks.
It looks like it actually charged me for a month, but gave me 15 days free so I have a subscription for 45 days. Hopefully I'm not charged if I cancel.
