What our customer's say!

"It's EQ2.... whoo hoo??", Added lots of nice new content to the game. Got stale for me after awhile, the whole EQ2 thing, not just this expansion. I got really peeved at their expansion every couple months, plus Bonus packs, plus this plus that..... You pay a monthly fee already, yet they drain your wallet even more for add ons every other month or so.....

"Don't buy this expansion", EQ2 is a great game. But, it has a new expansion called Rise of Kunark, which comes with all the previous expansions, adventure packs and the original game (ALL IN ONE). Therefore, don't waste your money on this old expansion, instead only buy the RoK expansion.

What is said by all the reviewers here are true. The first couple of reviews are true as well. That was the state of the game 4 years ago. Now the game has changed a lot and it has got better and better over the years. Now, I consider it to be the best MMORPG in the market today.

Another thing, as some reviewers has mentioned, it is not a hard core game. It is a very casual game. You can get from level 1 to 80 (max) in just a couple of weeks. And, you can solo all the way from level 1 to 80 if you want.

"This is one of the better games out there.", Im a veteran of MMORPG's.

I own every one that have been released in the last 7 years.

I hop about from game to game at times, but in content, and quality, EQ II is better than WOW. Ive returned twice to WOW just to be sure. Its true.



"Impressive Expansion", First of all, I'm impressed with all the WOW loyalists that seem to want to review/bash this product, obviously having most likely barely even played the trial version of the game, if they even bothered to go that far (meaning that they've never made it in to this part of the world to see/explore this content).

For the most part, it's true that this content is largely aimed at the 40+ characters. It's the same segment of the world that the famed "Carpet Quests" (Aka CQ1 through CQ5) are found and completed. And no, for such a valuable item, it's not going to be soloable, unfortunately (and those types of items are flagged "no trade").

However, to date, this is some of the most impressive content in the game (pre-KoS). I don't want to spoil all the surprises, but in this part of the world you'll find climbable walls, carpet transportation (instead of griffins), and an beautiful and interactive environment that will surely astound you -- just watch out for the dust storms. If you long for the lands like the "Deserts of Ro" again, this is a must-have... plenty of caiman, orc, genie, spectre, desert madman and spiders - just to name a few. Like most of the expansions, you don't necessarily need them in order to get some of the items from the area... but you'll need it in order to get to those items first-hand.

For reference (addressing a previous post): I'm currently running EQ2 running in moderate-to-high detail on a 3GHz box with 1GB of RAM and a 256MB ATI Radeon 9800 Pro at 1920x1024 (32bpp) on a 20 inch wide screen flat panel... and it's simply a gorgeous game. My zone times are still typically in the 10-15 second range, if not less... occassionally (mostly busy city zones), I may have a long zone time (30s to 1m), but it's a pretty rare. I've been told that simply bumping RAM to 2GB really helps in that regard, as well. For the time I purchased it (around game launch), that was quite-a-bit of machine... the likes of which only really required by games such as Doom III or Far Cry -- these days my machine's no longer really "high end" anymore.

"Yes, it really IS that good", After reading reviews posted here for this game, I wanted to give my opinion. There is definately a feeling of competition between EQ players and WoW players, and I think the negative reviews here are either from WoW players trying to discredit EQ2 or just uninformed people.
The only problem with EQ2 is that there is a lot of stuff that there seems to be no documentation for. However, the internet is full of sites with tons of info for anyone who takes the time to look for it. Also, any time you have a question you can simply ask in game on the "out of character" chat channel and you'll get an answer. The players are pretty good about that. I haven't played any other MMORPs except the original Everquest and I like this one WAY better. There's a lot less camping here and the graphics are the best I've ever seen in a game. Enough quests to keep you busy no matter what your level is or how much time you spend playing. The next update is due in a couple days and it will take the tedium out of tradeskilling up to level 50. I honestly couldn't recommend this game higher and haven't regretted buying it for a moment.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Countering Lies", I play EQ2 and want to counter some of the lies by previous reviewers.

You can sell while offline, you don't need to be logged into the game to sell. If you stay logged in then people can come to you and not pay the 20% broker fee, giving those merchants an advantage in big transactions. But the person stating that you MUST stay logged in is 100% wrong.

I pay the basic fee and get more than four characters. If you pay the extra fee you do get more characters but you also get many features like being able to talk with guildies while you're not logged in and free access to the mini-expansions. The statement that you only get 4 characters is 100% wrong.

At no time in this game has SOE charged $10 for content. The basic subscription covers a lot of updates, all received for free. As of this writing, Live Update 18 has been in place for a while. SOE occasionally introduces "mini-expansions" called Adventure Packs that they charge a few bucks for, or that you get for free if you subscribe to the bigger plan (see above). If I remember right, one Adv Pack was $5 and the other was $7. Whether they're worth the price is a matter of opinion. The statement that you must pay extra for updates is 100% wrong.

Zone times really depend on your PC. It's not a seemless process like it is in many games, by the same token you always have somewhere to run to for safety. Zoning for me generally takes 15 seconds for a smaller zone, 30 seconds for a larger one. Only someone with a very slow PC will see the 1-2 minutes the original poster stated and if you have that slow a PC, you really won't enjoy raid level content until you upgrade.

The game can be played solo but it will take you quite a while to reach the level cap if you do. The best way is a mix of solo and grouping. Some classes solo better than others (caster and hybrid fighter classes mostly) and some are more designed for grouping (pure fighter and healers mostly). There's a variety of styles supported but soloing to 60 will take longer than some other games do. A good group can really get you moving and I don't have much problem getting groups unless I'm in during a light population time.

"If you are thinking of coming from "The World Of Warcraft" ", If you are thinking of coming from "The World Of Warcraft" some things you should know

1 You can't solo your way to 60 you need a group or it will take you a year to get there

2 You can't have a lot of characters. You only get 4 unless you want to pay $7 more per/month then you get 6.

3 The high end content has a poor time to reward ratio. For many quests you will need to get a full raid to kill a mob that will only spawn once a week, this mob will not always drop the item, and only one person in the raid will get the quest item. FUN SOE style. Some mid level quests require you to get an item that has a drop rate of less than 00.1%

4 Update are not part of your monthly fee. When they unlock a zone or instant you need to pay another $10 access it. It would be like paying more to get access to Warsong or Zul'Gurub.

5 Zoning. To go from one zone to another you must wait for the next zone to load typically 1 to 2 minutes. If Iron Forge was Qeynos you would need to zone 4 time to run across the city.

6 The Great Gear looks the same as the Junk Gear

In short if you are sick of WOW and looking for something new you will probably not like EQ2. Guild Wars is a much better game to take a brake too. Also Guild Wars is between $15 and $25 a month cheaper to play then EQ2.

"Know Who Your are Doing Business With", To use the Auction system to sell goods to other players, you must leave your computer online running the game, while your character stands in one spot and does nothing. Sounds good? You can't leave you computer running 24/7 or you are on dial up and might need to get a call when you're not playing, that's just too bad. "If you don't like this system quit!" "We don't want to hear any more on this. This thread is closed! If you post another thread on this topic, you will be suspended from posting on the EQ2 forums!"

Here is a typical discussion that SOE will not allow, this thread was locked

After 6 months most players quit, they finally changed the auction system

"Cut and Paste game development", It was a very big disappointment for 30$. For the cost of nearly a full game you'd expect a bit more in the ways of new content rather than stuff that obviously was just cut & pasted from old content.

"New" armor looks exactly the same as what you arleady had (except they changed the color tint...omg wow). Spell and combat animations are still the same. So you look exactly the same as you did before both in armor and when you fight...fantastic.

Oh yeah, and when you get level 60, do you get anything special as a reward? Nope, no new spells. Not even a "for fun" spell like at level 40 and 50. All you get is a trivial update to old spell(s). Also, DO NOT believe what you see in the trailer. I assure you 100% that you will be disappointed if you do, because none of that pizazz (ie the monk spin kicks or the assassin's flaming arrows) are in the actual game.

This is a very disappointing expansion. There's nothing really new for you to do whether you group or solo. You grind and gain levels, except in a different zone...wow. Tradeable loots are on the decline as well (a lot more stuff has a no-trade flag now), so it will be harder to find upgrades without raiding as time goes on; a disappointment for those that don't enjoy raids. Also sucks if you do raid occasionally but the stuff you need doesn't drop the one time you're present.

Spells are the same, armor looks the same...for 30$ you'd expect so much more than a "cut and paste" expansion.Save your 30 bucks. If you must spend it...spend it on a game made by developers who can actually turn out a product that at least shows that SOME effort was put into it.

"Let's clear this up!", I agree with the others on this board, this is a game for hard core gamers and not a very friendly solo experience. I thought "multiplayer" meant there was a lot of players online playing, but I was not aware it dictated how you had to play the game. It would appear that it is okay for a solo'er to invest in, and play, a multiplayer game. How they choose to play is thier business. A true solo'er should not invest in this game, you'll just get frustrated. Grouping is the way to go, but good luck getting into a group. I like the idea of hired henchmen. This would make this game unbeatable. But until then, Guild Wars is the way to go for a solo'er.
