No, Everquest topped out at 500k subs at its peak. At a time when other MMOs were lucky to reach 100,000 - 200,000 subs, that was a big deal. And that stayed true until WoW shook up everything about MMOs.

EQ was great for what it was in its day, but.. no. Nothing like game time coming to an end and then having to fight your way out of a dungeon, wiping, grabbing backup gear out of the bank to attempt a corpse run with your group, recovering your body and then finally logging off hours later than you had originally intended.…

If you still enjoy WoW, more power to you. Play what you enjoy. I enjoyed it while I played it and stopped playing it when I stopped enjoying it. That goes for this game as well, when my fun stops so do I. Way too many MMO choices out there for anyone to feel like it's either WoW or Neverwinter.
-
I don't think it matters except in the case of the media. If the media starts to review Neverwinter now as a live, launched product, then it really doesn't matter what Cryptic wants to call it. The various media outlets (and their reviews and review scores) will reach more eyes than Cryptic ever could, and if the media as…

You both might want to read that announcement again. The public test server is going to be brought online while we're still in open beta test period, not delayed until after the game "officially launches". Patches that pass quality checks on the public test server will then make their way to the.. public open beta test…
-
Sounds like someone has the password and login for the email account you use for Neverwinter. And if you use that same email address for other accounts, then they likely will be hitting those soon as well.
-
That's some odd thinking there. If they insist this is a next generation, triple-A MMO title, does that make it true just because the developer labels it as so? Or does the public decide that?
-
Maybe Cryptic needs to make it so the NPC dialogue in these Foundry missions prints out letter-by-letter, at a set speed, with the response prompts not becoming usable until the dialogue has been written in full. Something reasonable, slightly faster than the average reading speed, but slow enough that people can't just…

I agree with this. A Hidden Blade is a good adventure. The last thing I want to see are authors (who are in it to make a good adventure) make constant changes to their adventures for the sole purpose of creating time sinks to appease the Daily requirements. Hidden Blade, for example, is part 1 of a 7 part series. People…

Hah. That sounds more like wishful thinking. If those statements were actually reality, more than a few recently launched MMOs would have to drop their "launched/live" status and begin calling themselves "beta" again.
-
Yeah, article seems to not want to post here, sorry folks. Follow the link, I guess! This is their breakdown, at least: The Breakdown The simple truth is this. They can call it what they wish, but Neverwinter has launched. It is a fully functional MMO with an operational cash shop, persistent characters that will not be…

I second that request.

You're throwing more flawed logic out there. Why not talk about bugs, class balance, PvP, etc in the general forum? They're topics that are generally about the game as well! :rolleyes: Like those, foundry topics are not "banished to a small corner of the forum" any more than the General Discussion section is banished to a…
-
And with this comment you've actually managed to make me dislike this thread and what you've done here. See, the problem with your logic of advertising in the general forums because there's more traffic here is this: if every foundry author starts thinking that way, then the general forum is going to wind up in worse shape…

You're mistake is in assuming I'm not "getting it". I'm well aware that auctions continue to run even when the auction house is taken offline, even when the entire game is down for maintenance. We have had more than enough maintenance windows for anyone to be well aware that the timer continues to run on the auction house…
-
That absolutely is the point. It's called a "minimum bid" for a reason. It's the minimum amount you're willing to settle on. The amount that will leave you feeling like you still came out ahead on your sale. Everything above that is just gravy. That's the number you set the minimum at and not a penny less. If you do,…

I can't believe people are so dense as to not understand this. Not everyone can play every day. Sometimes they can only spare a couple days per week to really play the game. However, people like to make sure they're at least popping on long enough to keep the celestial tokens from resetting, which means visiting the game…

Please explain how the XP gains becoming optional (via an XP scroll to use or an XP toggle) would destroy your world.
-
Don't want to post something useless, don't touch the keyboard.

This is along the lines of the problem I'm having. It's really irritating because I'm missing out on a source of AD by having to avoid invocations. I wish they would just give players an XP scroll to either use or toss.
-
I'm confused that assets would come out of that package as it only lists resources for rewards. In fact, those contents are pretty much the same as the chests of goods. If assets have a chance of showing up whenever resources are listed as a reward, that would imply the 5 day celestial token reward can also give assets.…

There was an entry on their facebook page citing the $200 founder pack was being removed and the $60 founder pack was being "changed", and May 9th was the target day. That day came and went and nothing happened.
-
Yes, but the other assets (the tools for each profession) impact the quality of the result. And without better tools, some of the improved variants are completely out of reach.
-
Yeah, I know about those lockboxes, I have a ridiculous number of them stacked in my bank that will never be opened. I just wasn't sure if you were referring to something else that I might have been missing. Hmm.. the barrel reward I haven't seen yet, or just haven't noticed. I assume you're not talking about the "chest of…
-
What type of lockbox, and from where?
-
Can you expand on this? Are you referring to outleveling the ability to enter lower level skirmishes, or something else?
-
Every now and then someone claims they can be received as rewards in the Leadership profession, but I have never seen any real evidence of this and those making this comment never seem to stick around to clarify with more details.
-
That is just annoying.
