VampDude

Gratzi! :o

Thanks!! Still extremely excited!

I wish I could be you, hun. Besides the, you know, being a man part. :p
I'm kidding. :)

Hehe, yea. Good news is that the game goes live in 2 weeks. Im just really glad i get to check it out before the release, 2 of my friends are in cos they work at EB games and when they tell me about their experiences now i can understand what they're talkin about!

Ack Sorry VampDude I think I deleted your reply on the server before it got to Kudane. :p

JK Grats

lmao!! Thanks Dolby!! wooooo!!

yes, i got your email reply..

no worries.

Did all 10 ppl reply?

That would be funny if there was one slot left to redraw.

Come on 1 of 7085!
Come on 1 of 7085!
I would be chanting. :p

I got lucky too
 

I have never won anything before and am quite known for it, so just thought it was my mates mucking around when i got the mail telling me i'd got a beta slot yesterday.

I can't wait to get in there, and still can't believe I have a place in beta!!!

Thanks a lot Kudane+all.

waiting on TWO, and they have 53 mins. in 54 or 55 mins I will be redrawing if those two have not contacted me.

so maybe by tonight I can be playing EQ2??? huh huh maybe maybe??
please say yes Kudane please say yes :)
Btw I really like this site.. people seem very mature. As an old gamer of 36 I like the input here and good threads. Keep it up guys/gals

O my stars, I can't believe it. :D

Yea I hope all the winners have replied! I think the first 8 of us are dying to get in. So a question for those who are waiting to get into beta, have you decided which class you want to specialize in?

I replied, just waiting now. :p

And I have no idea on class yet, I'll probably stare at the screen for a minute.

Yea totally! Im still stoked I got in!! Grats mistium!!

i want to play a necro.. but i really wanna play a troll so prolly start a fighter and head tword gaurdian!! i'll play necro when its released!! a necro troll just wont work lol

I have an ogre bard, whats wrong with a troll necro?

i dont know they start with such low int.. 10 i think 8(~ could be a hard road to advancment.... btw thanks for doing the drawing early!!

I have no idea what i will play either, maybe a druid? no clue yet...i will see what fits me best when i get in lol

Awesome. Hope the last 2 people replied so we can get in there ASAP.

waiting on one person to reply..

here is my solution if the last person has not replied by tomorrow

I will draw a new name, and that person will have 2 hours to reply if nothing in 2 hours.. a new name.. they get two hours, if nothing in two hours, then a new name. I will do this from 11am to 5pm (11, 1, 3) at 5pm I will start drawing a name every HOUR till someone replies. if nothing by 10pm. I will post a message on the board here and the first PM reply I get will get it. sooo by 10pm tomorrow night SOE will have all your names.

Soooo hows that sound?

Thats alright with me. Hard to believe there is one open slot out there, but hopefully that one person will get it together soon. Good planning though Kudane, look forward to getting in soon time.

Sounds good Kudane and thanks bunches ;) i just can't believe someone hasn't replied lol OMGZ...i just hope they hurry it up hehe....all you peeps start checking email constantly lol :p

Thats cool Kudane... I know I replyed late so I can't say anything bad about someone not checkin e-mail 8)... I got home at 10 am and didnt check e-mail till like 1pm and missed the 12pm deadline last week. I was playing EQ tho so thats a good excuse right?? I'm very glad ya let me in and I'm looking forward to wasting my whole weekend in front of my machine!!! (well not wasting but the honey do list will have to wait!!)

What about people that work 3rd Shift and are asleep at that time? They will never be able to reply within 2 hours.

Sounds great, kudane!

lets hope they can check thier mail remotely. our current raffle winner has 14 hours anyway..

There is just tooo much to choose from, I love the Ratonga, but I don't do evil else I would have been able to be a Ratonga mage. Erudite mage or high elf priest - i think I may go with a fighter to begin with though, I found levelling a caster tough in the beginning in EQ1.....- ohh- I am so excited I really don't know - I think I'll just see what grabs me when I get there.

You can be any race/class combo that you want to be. Oh, and by the way... it won't be so hard to level a caster in this game. You can go from level 2-10 in 2 hours, and thats just by doing quests. After 10 you will have to do some lookin around... I have managed to get to 12 by just messin around, not doing any serious combat.... well...except for some Darkblade Fury's once...they were a pain. Anyway... so far I have found 11 quests just in the market area of Freeport, and there's plenty more to choose from. Only thing I don't like so far is that the quest journal has no way to delet unfinished quests..if you should decide you don't feel like doing a peticular one you started. (shrugs) eh.. other than that.... this game rocks!!!

thats not exactly accurate, and a bit of an exageration... I have tested this.. the SHORTEST amount of time i got from 2 to 10 was 12 hours 43mins(my ratunga brawler) the LONGEST was 23hrs 12mins. (that was earlier in beta). the amount of running around you have to do for your halmark quest alone prevents this time table, add in any difficulties finding parts for goblin quest on the island, etc.. PM me if you want to hear the break down (i took notes) of where my 12 hours went.

And BTW you can make your Ratunga good jtrenchard, just have to do the betrayal quest at 15 and move to qeynos. and then he is "good" But I have had 2 ratungas.. and FP is much nicer for them! wooot go evil!

hehehe

I'm not gonna try to level. Well, I am but I'll enjoy every aspect of the game. You know what I mean.

Yes - I totally agree with that sentiment Mistium - I would like to find a nice balance between level progression and fulfilling my characters potential at each level with quests etc, I think it is the character/questing part of the game which distinguishes one player from another, doing a lot to build their persona.
