I don't really think that VI is faoviring the level 55+ characters like a lot of the people who posted seem to think. There ARE tons of places for lower levels to fight.. and not enough high level places. And there are more level 60 characters out there than you would think.. you don't stay level 30 |

my major problem with level 50+ characters is that a great many of them have forgotten what it's like to be truly low level... sure, they make newbs, but they almost always twink they new characters, destroying the point of leveling up... getting to level 60 is no easy feat... i've been playing m |

have we already forgotten velious? have we so quickly forgotten that some of the HARDEST zones in the game are on the very FIRST expansion? so soon we overlook the fact that there is a wealth of things to do in what we already have to explore... this is disheartening... |

One thing for sure. The New expansions with higher level requirements. Sure do free up many of the mid-level camps and end most farming now that they have to learn zones all over again. It is so annoying heading to a zone with your group or guild only to have it camped with 1 or more high level char |

Planes of Power does have 1 lower lvl zone... if they made more its not like a lvl 20 guild will raid it. IT might be a normal exp zone. If it isn't it will probably just be farmed by high lvls for the loot. A raid dosent work until u have a decent guild with alot of 50+ the mobs there cant be sol |

2. Alot of them arn't really complants

First off, I agree that seeing twinks running around all over the place probably does ruin a newbies game. But well to tell you the truth Ive been playing since EQ1's first debue and ive found it increasingly harder and harder to entertain my self with this game. Quests are usually filled with major |

True, Sony's primary purpose is to make money for their shareholders. And true, businesses generally do examine the level of customer satisfaction that they perceive to exist. This is true of all business.

Perhaps I haven't reviewed the boards enough to recognize an old suggestion but I think your idea of dividing servers into twink/non-twink as a variance on the role playing to PVP spectrum of types of servers is a good one. It's also an example of what I meant below in posting a complaint/suggestio |

Though I will be among other playing the new EQ2, what I think others are saying, with the statement that you've quoted, is that if they are forced to start over, which they won't, they won't be starting over and supporting Verant at the same time. |

As a follow up to my "Oh Grow Up" message below I direct you to the Sony Press Release about EQ for the PS2 at:

Note that they excitedly reference the current installed base of 8.8 million PS2's as potential platforms. If they get only 10% |

For some strange reason, I sat and read this entire thread with all the things about Druids, Shamans, Wizards, etc. People need to keep in mind that noone forced them to make the character that they did. If you think youre gonna want ports, make a porting character. For buffs, make a buff character, |

I think instead of making all of these new zones they should make the zones that are supposed to be in the old world and the other expansions that where never made. They should finish what they started before making a new expansion. The more expansions the more zones that where supposed to be in t |

There is one reason I think that they made a expansion for 55+ lvls is because casual gamers are getting to lvl 60 now so there are to many uber people on each server for the few uber lvl raid zones so now they are making a expansion to make it so there is enough uber mobs to go around. |

I just hope there aren't higher hardware requirements for this expansion than Luclin required. I, myself do not have deep pockets (not like the rogue guild hehehe) to buy a whole new machine to play the game. I am maxed out with what I can afford. Oh well. With VI making about 4 MILLION per mont |

Anyone complaining about PoP expansion, there is one word to explain it--Money. Do you think VI cares about anything but money? If it were my job, I would want to keep it. EQ has done a good job at keeping several hundred thousand people interested in this game. People that pay them every month. |

Well, My highest character is only 30. Nad even thoguh I can't use Planes of Power yet. I have it on preorder..because I iwll be able to eventually go there.....yes, it may be for only high level characters, but it gives the lover levels something to SHOOT for.
Just My two cents |
