Eq free for 21 days and EQEmu
 

I'm one of those ppl who walked away from EQLive a year ago (played on EQEmu for awhile as well) but moved on because the servers were still growing and everyone who hosted servers were learning to make them better. Now with the free 21 day "welcome back" period, I find myself saying, "why did i walk away". I understand that it has been since the 9/13 patch since ppl could use EQEmu unless they didn't patch but what can I do to help get a new working version of EQEmu?

Do I need to donate? I would be more than happy to. I would love to help in speeding up the process. I really enjoyed the community when I was on it and would love to see it continue. Whatever I can do to help, please count me in.

thanks and Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all.

Thanks for your interest. For the next couple months at least we will remain frozen on the current client. There is really no guarantee as to when we will go back to live compatibility. The decision was made to freeze because it got to a point we were chasing live patches so much that there was no time to fix bugs, add features, or review things like combat mechanics and skills.

At this point in time, the best thing you could do is keep an eye here and see when we will be trying for live compatible next. Once that happens, there's a packet collector you can use to jump on Live and collect data that will be needed.

Until then, I'm afraid about all you can do is sit tight and keep in touch with the community from time to time.

i hope
 

I'm really looking foward to updates to the system. Fixed AA's, augments, etc, filled zones with all the quests etc..... ohhhh the possibilities
