5 Minutes

Brimestar · 04-01-2009, 06:45 PM

I'd rather the server crash every 5 minutes than to spend 5 minutes trying to zone in..Cmon SOE this is horrible. This last restart was redonkculous (re tar ded is not allowed) . It didn't fix anything.

This is probably why they did a second "restart" which I think we all know by now isn't just a restart because everything is still down and running like crap. I'm surprised the forums are still working, I can't get my station page or EQ2players to load up.

Since the server's really can't handle the zone issues, they should just put a writ giver in every zone to help reduce the number of zone's required.

Oh, what you mean is -- they should put a writ giver in lavastorm so the nonstop token swap can go by even faster. Give me a break. I love seeing a lot of PvP in one area, but this big token swap is just pathetic. Here, everyone! Have some fantastic gear for no effort! Don't get me wrong.. I'm in Lava just as much as the next guy (as all the zones seem to be dead save this one), but the PvP there isn't that meaningful. Just fix the servers, ffs.

What's going on in lavastorm is pathetic. It's token factory + fame factory combined, all for free. Anyone thinking this kind of pvp works in the long run needs to get his head checked. After one evening of farming fame and tokens I'm already bored to hell.

Yeah, instead of pvping I am now crafting and doing grey quests on a lowbie alt. PvP is about as apealing as a prostate exam at the moment.

Fluffyhairball · 04-02-2009, 07:14 AM

This is what i did fear when i did read about the update on pvp. Now its no fun to pvp anymore. I used to pvp and have fun. Now im just doing quest coz the fun pvp is gone.

I dont know how we shuold pvp now? Only goal is to get armors now right? So fastes way is just to go solo aoe and get updatets/fame. If u do grp up u have to wait for rest of the grp to die to the x10 on the docks.

I just wuold like to know how many did want this change and how many didnt. I for one didnt want anything to change =/

Love fluffy

Isn't this what everyone wanted?!?! it makes titles and tokens mean nothing therefore you are there to PVP to KILL PEOPLE its awesome, i personally played for two hours and had some amazing fights with people, I honestly enjoyed my time in EQ2 for the first time ina long time, this is what we've been begging for for months and now we got it and people still continue to complain. just S T F U and enjoy it for once god bless.

Jacquotte · 04-02-2009, 08:10 AM

i called my doc too and asked for Adrenaline shots, since the game that used to be eq2pvp just isnt there anymore

The problem I have with this dock zerg is that it requires nothing. Skill is irrelevant, you will get your updates as long as you tagged some people that will eventually die in the zerg. Gear is irrelevant, as your dps will be irrelevant in all the aoe's flying around and survival isn't required as you still get updates off people even after dying and reviving.The pvp I enjoyed was group vs group, or 1 vs 1, where a combination of teamwork, gear, skill and a little luck determined who would win. Now there are no winners, there are no losers there are just writupdates and famebumps for everyone, thus making it meaningless.
