• • How come EQ II doesn't attract more players?

    I was listening to podcast and he brought up a good point; Why doesn't EQ2 have more players? With the tons of content and great community why do you think EQ2 can't retain its player base or add to it. It always seems to hover around the same amount of people. Now, new people join, but they seem to quit a month or so later. To me, it seems like EQ2 just can't really grow like WOW, or WAR.

    What do you think the problem is?

     

    Maybe there is no problem?

    You have to think about the fact that the size of the game, the number of zones being added, will spread the population out more and they've been consistently adding new areas for years now. Not to mention that there are exchange servers, rp servers, international servers, and pve servers. The game is pretty big lol

• • When a scout can tank...

    Recently I have been seeing scouts being able to tank.  This bothers me.  This game is becoming classless ina sense that anyone can do anything they want no matter what class they are.  I think this is really killing the game.  Does anyone else feel this way? 

    If Scouts (DPS) are able to tank for a group in an in a group instance...Where does that leave tanks.  This must feel like a real kick in the face to the tank classess out there.  Last night on the Ab server i witnessed a discussion on the 70s chat, basically about tanks becoming obsolete, and how if tank cant hold aggro against a scout when the scout goes all out then the tank is worthless etc...

     If Scouts can DPS and Tank, shouldnt healers be able to tank also?  The devs are seriously making bad decisions with this game and the new expansion (TSO) being released in a week.  I dont know devs, I remember when tanks were tanks, healers simply healed, etc...

    Again as I have said in the past, if this keeps going....I wont be playing much longer.

    What are your thoughts?

     

    I really don't see what you are getting at or how you think EQ2 is becoming classless because you saw a scout tanking. Scouts do allot more dps than tanks and have a hate transfer they can put on tanks to lessen their aggro gain.

    Does it always work? No, some times the scout will proc an incredibly high amount of damage and will gain the aggro.

    Taking the time to learn all your spells & skills makes a world of difference in the game as each class has certain strengths and weaknesses. Combining all the right classes and people who know the game mechanics and their class well and you get an unstoppable force.

    Technically If you get a few healers and a wizard together the wizard can tank, not great, but still can.

    It's crazy what some people will do when you throw them in a GAME together isn't it?
