Make it two players (mercs allowed) and I'd care Smiley: grin

The above quote is Jophiel's post. I goofed in my reply to it so I edited my post with the quote pasted in. My post is:


Actually, this is the case. Last after my friends logged, I ran the second mission from the little guy in Dead Hills with my two characters and their mercs. It was Magician and healer with Bard and caster dps. It was a blast and now I know I can always catch up if I miss any sessions.

Correct.

Oh I'll get it shortly. I have all the others. Most don't offer me much, since I'm more of a part time, solo player but since I'm back in the game after all these years and my new wife is a gamer, I still like to be an achievement ***** :)

Yes iirc.

Just for the info Bufeas, I have two of the Titanium Edition disc sets and always loaded up the game on a new computer from the discs before. It used to take me about 1 hour or so to load the 5 disks then some more time to d/l and update files from the EQ site (via patcher installed w/disc set).

After the release of the new (current) patcher, when loading via disc set, it would take another 1-2 hours to overwrite the old patcher including updating the files..for a total of about 3 hours to load up EQ on my system.

A few months ago I got a new desktop and loaded directly from EQ site (digital d/l) and it was complete and ready to play in about 1 - 1.5 hours max. Incident free, in my case.

Just giving you the option in case you change your mind re digital d/l.

Edit: Forgot to add. With the digital download I did (earlier this year)... I believe it even came with the direct X 9 version needed to enable the video card to the game as for the first time ever I did not have to separately download dx9 or dll file after installing EQ.

Good luck.

Boxes with CDs for on-line games are akin to vinyl records for music... a throwback to the "ancient" times. But they had their advantages. The EQ box sets had the classic cloth map, a variety of colorful printed manuals and posters... even a Firionia Vie vinyl figure! I have saved all my boxes and their contents as I consider them collectibles. It's also true that installation from CDs, or even 3.5-inch floppies could be nightmarish. I can remember more than once going thru the long time-consuming process of installing the game from disks and getting an unrecoverable message on the 8th or so disk, meaning having to start all over again and hope it was a fluke.

Digital download all the way!
