New Frontiers? edition>what is Everquest Online Adventures: FrontiersThis is the first and so far the only public EverQuest Online Adventures server after the official servers shut down in 2012. You can play with an emulator such as PCSX2 or a real Playstation 2. >information/how to connecthttps://eqoa.live/There is a 'cord but if you want to avoid groomercord just follow the instructions on the above link, there is A LOT that works atm and you can happily grind and quest to level 50, community contributions are massive and lots of the game has been fleshed out.>mods/addons? Pretty much none. Just fire up PSCX2 and a controller. >resource(s)https://eqoa.forumotion.com/https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12ih6BA64YcLQtIkM0INFM3PT6P2VJF4jtjQCc1-9CtI/edit?gid=1908064489#gid=1908064489https://www.projectreturnhome.com/DownloadFiles/EverQuest-Online-Adventures-Frontiers-Prima.pdf
First time a thread on /vm/ has made me gulp with fear. I played this game religiously from release to shutdown and it ruined alot of my life. Will try find some old SS'es. OP is a faget
this server is populated as fuck considering it's unfinished, OP are you the dev? I expected 20 people not 900

>you just install the emulator, grab the game from vimms and drag a "cheat patch" into a folderUnironically one of the easiest set ups to perform - class recommendations??
knew it wouldn't be long before we got a /general/, any fellow europoors want to steam group it up and organize some exping? 4th level shaman so far, halas is great, I cannot believe the size of the map of this game
>6 hours deep into party in a place i've never been to beforeKino
So shaman or druid? or Alchemist? Any playing this in Poland timezone?
Let's get it. I could not for the life of me figure out how to enable cheats on PSCX2 but now I've done it and I'm in. Freeport is busy as fuck, very unexpected. Anyone trying to group for Nasehir?
>>2076875EQOA has 900 online?
>>2080763No it usually fluctuates between 300-600 but I was suprised too when I started in august
>>2080787That's still quite a lot. Are people botting or afking or something?
>>2076865Is the game stable? Last time I remember hearing about this all you could do is walk to places.What is the game actually like? My only frame of reference is the original everquest PoP era.
>>2081383"The Full Game" feels like it works up until level 55, I think there is a level cap around 55 they have soft implemented whilst they get the high level stuff scripted in but the breadth of the main game works, quests work etc, it's come a long way from being a walking simulator, spent 8 hours grouping in a desert killing maniacal jeets last night, we were blessed with a shaman passing us by and giving us what felt like steroids for 30 mins etc. >>2080798Lots of people just hang around freeport making groups and then you'll see that bunch disappear and the next group lfg'ing there, I am unaware if you can bot, there are definitely people AFK (it's the perfect game to have permanently turned on, lol) but like just log in /shout is always busy and the lfg/group finder board is popping too
>>2081383>what is the game actually like?It's a PS2 Controller MMO like Final Fantasy XI or EverQuest on the PC (just with a different movement/targeting system and some specific charms that only this game has) it plays like a beat-em-up, you spam (or hold, fortunately) X to swing your attack whilst switching through spells/abilities with the Dpad arrows and hitting circle to cast, so you weave abilities inbetween your autos, targeting is like tab targeting but with R1 and L1, the /consider system is in this game but it's done automatically as you tab through targets. It's just a stupidly content rich game considering it's an underdog from 20 years ago that was outshined by wow and ffxi and the gameplay loop is insanely comfy.
>>12198153 /vr/ threadLevelled up to 10 outside freeport last night. After work today, gotta find out what classes can invis/invis from undead then work on getting that levelled so I can truly explore this game, tired as fuck today, I want to call in sick and play ;-;
>start alchemist>9 hours pass the fastest time has ever passed meWho Else Feeling Addiction ?? Do we have a guild in game ??
This shit has made me pull out the 7$ wireless keyboard/trackpad combo alongside a wireless controller I'm liable to fall asleep back here all cuddled up, they really don't make em like this anymore

what are the chances this game is completely barren in a month?
>>2089897fuck do u mean? it's been active for years and likely will continue to be, 325 in game atm
>>2083533>>>/vr/12198153
>>2076984Did they ever add in the original CD version without needing the expansion,I only had the launch PS2 disk
>>2094437You can connect to Sandstorm with the original (non frontiers) game disk, I am unsure if the instructions are on the site or the pedocord though (I only join discord(s) to verify or seek information then immediately leave them as best practice) either way hope to see you in game if you need heals I'm a cleric named InvigDo we have a steam group for this game guys? I would much prefer that if any anons have already set it up
>>2080763you have to understand at time of release there wasn't really anything like it,it was literally jam packed till the shutdown datetown's were completely filled with player's ust chatting & messing around fishing/grouping ect
pretty sure it's just me and 3 other anons holding this general downI AM CALLING IN SICK FROM WORK TO PLAY ALL DAYNOT ONE FUCK GIVEN
I've been at sandstorm for a long time. Since the cap was level 2. Wild to see a general. Do we have a guild? I won't flood it with many alts.
>>2096881damn sounds like the train already left the station. how is alchemist it was the only non-carryover class i saw
>>2097659Not a huge worry though as anons will likely be able to Power level you>>2097028I couldn't believe that we didn't have a general when I discovered the website/discord I was blown away but it kinda just goes to show the quality of the user of this site has plummeted, take a look at the most popular generals for example, disgusting new slop games played by people that will never be employed/likely question their sexuality daily, I will stop here though before I'm banned for ranting>>2094854getting help from randoms in this game back when it was actually LIVE was fucking kino
Alright, I'll give this a go. Anyone have thoughts on choosing between paladin, shadow knight, or shaman? I've always been a big fan of weapons and spells.
Actually what does the bard play like on here? I saw people in the old days say it was good for soloing too.
I'll join you fags.
Is this game good for baby noobies? I tried playing EQ but it was too hardcore for me.
>>2112218I've been having fun with it. It's infinitely easier to navigate the cities because they're tiny baby versions of EQ 1's cities.
when are we gonna do a guild?
>>2112428How do we make one? We'd have to probably figure out how to play on the same side right? Does this game do good/evil like eq1 and 2?
>>2112450good and evil only depicts what towns you can go into really. to make a guild you need a full party and 5k.
>>2112456Ah, okay. I definitely don't have 5k. I don't know how much I even have actually.
bros... i would play this so much, me and my brothers eventually all had our own ps2 just so we could all play, i was never even good like them -- they had max level necromancers and shitim the youngest and would just constantly bounce between new chars, stopping at like level 15-20 or sothe only chars i remember getting to level 17(?) when you can do those quests to get their distinct class set was a (burly snow biome race?) barb and an elf rogue, who got a blue and black class set respectivelyi pissed my brother off one day and he beat me up and deleted my rogue though, that might have been before i got my own ps2 and had to use his account and stuff... very sad times, she wasnt too high of a level but i did get the whole set and remember liking that classspent a lot of time killing those wasps at the hive across various characters, and my highest level one i ever got was an enchanter, i was def able to summon one of those genie guys, maybe high 20s, low 30s -- that class's set color was yellowrangers had the green set... SoW... oh man i gotta set this up
>no in-game friends list What the fuck
What are the endgame activities like for this game?
