Non NDA breaking question for anyone in the TSO beta

vicious0093 · 10-17-2008, 10:28 PM

Okay, so I've had a lot of trouble playing EQ2 ever since RoK happened. Burning Crusade was a terrible expansion, and RoK was a carbon copy of it. In uglier zones(if that's possible). Fuck jungles.

Anyway, my problem with MMOs, especially EQ2, is that they gloat about having so much content, but only 10% of that content is worth doing at one time. SOE did an incredible job with EoF. It's easily the greatest expansion for any MMO ever, including WotLK which I've been testing since alpha. Thing is, no one does EoF content anymore.

I really wish they would make older zones scale to your level, or add something to make older content worth experiencing if you're up for it. The zone in EoF were incredible. Vampires are awesome. CMM, while being frustrating at times, was an incredible and unique zone. I want that back, because RoK blows.

So. For anyone in the beta, will I like TOS?

You really didn't say what you like other than vampires. There are some vampire zones in the expansion. The expansion is basically a casual groupers dream. There is a ton of group zones, you couldn't hope to do them all in one night (although I doubt you'd want to do most of them). Zones scale from an original level up to max level. So a zone in say lavastorm you could go in with a level 50 group or you could go in with a level 80 group.

.. They'd be breaking the NDA just by telling you they were in beta.

So, yeah.

Even without breaking the NDA, I can sum up The Shadow Odyssey with six words:

Lost Dungeons of Norrath, version 2

If that's true, then it's the most retarded NDA I've ever heard of.

Posting anything about TSO from a BETA Participant is against the NDA...

And why are you trying to compare apples to oranges. Burning Crusade was a Blizzard project. RoK is an EQ2 project.

first rule of beta is dont talk about beta :P

it may be stupid but its true you cannot tell anyone you are actually in beta if you agreed to the NDA

People know I'm in Beta because they saw Beta under my name on the official SoE forums.

Funny thing is, even without accepting the NDA you are given privilege to the beta forum on EQ2Players.
