Hi.

Well it has been nearly a year since I played it, and it was one of the most fun games I played, especially when going raiding :D, but I could not afford it in the end, so had to cancel it and was not happy about it :(. Fortunatly now I think I can pay for it and with me looking around for jobs the chances of me been able to pay it in the long term are higher.

Anyway, I'm just wondering, over the past year has it really changed much? And is there a lot of you out there on this forum that play this game still?

Also is it worth getting some of the expansion packs too?

I seem to have a problem too, I tried logging in today and it seems my everquest 2 account has been deleted, I guess this is due to me canceling it and not using it for about a year? EQ2 was bought with this account too, it still all shows in the payment history, do I need to re buy EQ2 or if I start a subscription with the E2 client instaled should it be fine?

One last question. If I start a free trial, will I be able to use the exact same account when I start paying for it?

Thanks.

When I played it I only played it now and again and still found it interesting and not falling behind, It seemed everyone was going away to the EOF expansion pack though :\.

Theres another one since then. Not played it though. The EOF exp was very good.

The latest exp has ALL the expansion packs in there.

Hmmm, which one should I buy?

On subscription it shows 1 month£9.49* every month and at bottom
* Plus Applicable Taxes, so its £9.49 not INC VAT?

I've contacted them, but I'm going to have to wait for ages for them to reply, I can go into my account info and click subscribe on the same one I guess that re activates it. I think I'll go with the 6 monthly payment as it knocked almost a tenner off which is good.

So I'll do this now.

All I need now is to know if anyone on the forum is willing to meet up in game?

I need a trial really, I've just remembered, huge problems with 8800GT, lots of people having problems.

I still got my char :D, seems fine fingers crossed no gameplay problems :D.

When I had a 3700+ SD, 1gb ram and 8800GTS 640 all on high 1440x900 it was like a slide show.

I sure hope to 75 quid was worth it!! :eek:

Lack of memory would have been your biggest issue then I'd wager, plus don't expect to turn everything up to maximum settings and have it run well, it won't.

Why wont it? Is it the crappy optimized engine everyone goes on about?

What settings should I use?
 
Ok, thanks, well I'll just lower the settings abit then.

Lastly, do you think it is worth 49quid every 6 months and 25 quid for all expansions and everything? its been took out of my bank allready.

It's value is a purely personal opinion to be honest.

Well if I ever leaved EQ2 again for a long time I wont need to re buy what I've bought will I?

Also is it possible to change servers? I'm currently in Antonia Bayle.

Anyone have any other idea as to were I can botain the files? As through the client I currently have a 176 hour and 13 min wait :eek:
 
I wont EVER be deleting this from my drive, if I need to format my software drive then this will go on DVD lol.

52 mins to go now hopefully thats it.
 
Hmmm, Runeye a server? Sounds good, I'm thinking of starting a new char, how many UK players are on it? Is the server busy?

hi m8,

Runneye and splitpaw are the 2 unofficial UK servers. I started on splitpaw 4 yrs ago but swapped to runneyeye along with a load of uk'ers in the early days when we got the free switch. the server load is officially classed as medium . (same as splitpaw). There are a load of Uk;ers as this was where we all started off in the very early days. There are some great people on this server. I am on at least 4 days a week so give me a /tell and i'll pop over to give a hand :).

Sounds interesting, allthough how do you choose that server I cant recall seeing that on the server selection? I might make a 3rd char because the server I am on with my new char I started yesterday is pretty quiet, too quet really.
