Seemed like there were already too many zones, most of which were empty when I quit two years ago...

BuffBlock - one more "feature" copied from MacroQuest2 who had it first (and will probably be better).

I'm still not sure what the point of redoing Freeport graphically is. Unless there's some compelling reason for people to start going there again, it'll just be a better looking ghost town. Looking better isn't going to make people leave the convenience of PoK.

Bigger bank is nice for tradeskilling & questing.

The site is blocked here at work. Any new AA's or anything else listed as coming new in this exp?

Halas is way past due for being the center of the EQ world.

Revamp Halas and put a huge ice slide along with other icy fun stuff to attract outsiders. Consult Canadians and Swedes to make sure the frozen wasteland effect is properly implemented. Make a powerful new Eskimo race that roam the outskirts of Halas...pummelling anyone wearing a toque!

I'm thinking it was practice for the latest round of graphic artists before they started on the expansion or something like that. It looks as though there are no changes done to the zone at all except the graphics, so who's even going to notice? I can't belive they're advertising that as a feature

11 expansions.. that's pretty goddamn impressive though.

Freeport is entirely different, 100% lost on my way through it. Find didnt work. I was there for like fuckin 30 minutes lookin for just the banker

The landscape, spawning spots and buildings for every zone should be completely re-randomized each day at 3am Pacific to create the illusion of newness. On top of that, the world zone connections should be completely scrambled at the same time.

Burned Woods is off Freeport this week.

It is?I havent been able to use Find in bazaar since new expansion, so basically to buy something, i log hesten on, look through 300+ people on track list, and use track to find the person. Can takeup to 10 min.

I have heard that if you drop lev in Bazaar then find works properly. or more better.

Unless you didn't have lev. In which case you'll have to wait for them to getting around to fixing it. Which could be awhile unless you can exploit it somehow to the players advantage. Then it will be fixed in an emergency patch.

Just use MQ2 and /target. EQ sucks without it anyway.

And the new FP sucks too.

That is all.

Aslanna · Post by **Aslanna** » March 6, 2006, 1:07 pm

Ok.. So you have someone targeted. That doesn't help you in finding them.

Hesten · Post by **Hesten** » March 6, 2006, 2:46 pm

The find bug seems to be on and off.
I been able to use it 2 times in bazaar now since expansion. And i just finished my 7 new master trophies, so try and imagine how many times i needed bazaar.

Actually, it does. Since it shows on the map and all you have to do is follow the line (if you have that turned on) or go to where you see the dot otherwise.
