Swording people is nowhere near as fun as running over Chronnos and hearing his scream of agony.

Are any of you going to play once it goes live? I'd rather play on a server/team where I know at least one person. =P

Sunnie,
With the advent of the Sony all access pass, I'll be picking it up and playing from time to time. I don't know what server yet, etc, though.

I'm waiting for my copy to be shipped to me (got it $10 cheaper than retail, even after shipping, so figured I could wait a few days).

Will look you up Silje!

Lastly, folks that were in Beta have noticed that experience awards are lower than those to which they were accustomed. This is true, but the experience curves in beta were intentionally overinflated to allow faster progression of rank. This allowed our design team to examine data about the usage of weapons and armor at the various Battle Ranks. Those XP gains are now returned to the gains originally intended. For the record, the experience gains while in a squad are shared evenly among squad members, but with a 20% bonus added onto them. Therefore, if you destroy a target worth 100 raw XP, and you're in a squad of 10 people, your individual gain would be:

100/10) * 1.2 = 11.2 XP (rounded up to 12).

This may seem like a reduction in experience potential, but when in a squad of 10 you rack up kills at a greater rate and with relative ease compared to doing so as an individual, so it's possible to gain a great deal of experience that way. (Plus, squads allow easier communication and allow the sharing of base capture experience, as well as allowing Command functionality, so they're very worthwhile groups.)

Well that settles it for me. I thought the experience was bad enough without that. Base caps went from 3000 to 300 and now kills from 100 to 10, no thanks.

The change to kill exp sucks, but I've been getting 2k - 3k per base cap, and nearly as much for resecures.

Post subject: Posted: Wed May 21, 2003 05:06 PM

Oh then I guess they changed it after beta ended back to normal. Cause at the end of beta exp for base cap was determined by how long you were in the base 10mins before the hack and during the hack. It went from average of 2000xp to average of 300xp. I think the most exp I got from a base cap was being there the whole 25mins and I still only got 1200xp. We stopped caring about bases because most kills would warrent more exp than sitting there holding it down. EQ takes up too much time to worry about this anyways Confused
