EQ2 Back Online!!!

Dethdlr May 14, 2011 8:21 pm

That’s right! The servers are back up! I’ll let Feldon fill in details or replace this with a “real” article about the servers being back up. I’m headed in to play! Just wanted to get the word out. WE’RE UP!

From Everquest2.com:

Restoration of SOE’s game services will begin today. This phased restoration will include the return of nearly all of our portfolio of online games, the reinstatement of our game forums and websites, and added functionality to require players to reset their passwords.

    YAY!!!!
    Things I missed most during the downtime:
    – being able to run off cliffs without fear of death
    – my blue AOEs
    – flying
    – my bag space, which now seems infinite
    – autoattack making me face my enemies without any help from me
    – NO GLOBAL COOL DOWNS

    Hooray on EQ2 being back! You’ve spoiled me for other games.

    altho i of course welcome back EQ2, i do so with mixed emotions. Friday a week ago, i fell and fractured both mr right shoulder and wrist. of course i’m right handed. So, i really can’t do much of anything in the game for the next 6/7 weeks. 🙁 probably lose out on all the bonuses also. oh well; my own fault of course.

    My only comment is the “loot banzai thing is a waste and waste of time, unless it’s like a 25% increase it’s a waste of time, if it’s the same way the hot zones work they might as well not have bothered.

    I already left a comment about the ‘making good’ being useless to raiders and asking for something for us @ http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=499985

    Finally! This is great news! I really missed Norrath and my fellow guildies.

    @Ace531: I hope you’ll get better very soon. But give it time to heal as well. Norrath can wait a bit more 😉

    @Ace531

    Ouch, although if you are laid up for that time I’d suggest just trying left handed for a bit, slower but I’m sure there are things to do 🙂

    Alternatively this “mouse” might work, and yes it is a real product!

    I’ve heard some SOE employees have played around with hands free mice, I know my last boss where I worked instantly tried to buy one when he first heard about it 🙂

    No – It’s not really up!! – Especially when SOE forces you to change your password then gives you an error in the process. Then the system locks you out completely. What a load of RUBBISH !!!!
