PEQ server has been down for 4 and half hours

[Pyjamarama]

I know that a group of players tried to buy the rights to the Saga of Ryzom and then release it to the public, but it never happened because other companies always outbid them... and always failed to make a profit.

You can read about it here: http://www.ryzom.org

I'm guessing that at least a third of all new MMOs coming out will be shut down within a few years. Things that depend on profit for survival have a short lifespan, whereas things in the public domain are essentially immortal. So I definitely believe EQEmu will outlive SOE. Hopefully PEQ will be back up soon...

Have we heard anything else? I'm really bored out of my skull and craving some EQ.

Hard to do when the server isn't up :P Actually, I was gearing up to come back when this all went down. If it ever gets going again we'll see. Sad part is from all the servers left there really aren't any contenders for a PEQ clone. The ones that are close to PEQ are the fly-by-night type and fuck investing that amount of time in toons only to have it drop off in 2 months.

I think I'll pretty much wait and see what CD does. If he decides to pursuit it, I'll support him financially, if not, well then my social life will continue to not suck

My Xmas and New year wish is for PEQ to both come back, come back stronger than ever, come back to stay, and a PS3 =)

i was wondering whats a good substitute for pew being down

Liquest, jump on The Irreverent server and go...

It's the best way to get into the game agin fairly quickly and if you get to go back to PEQ then you'll have a lvl 70 character on The Irreverent.

I'm on there as Savnok.

The one thing I don't like lately is how Custom getting your epic 2.0 is but they claim thier reasons for making it so.


5x experience and STABLE unlike the other accelerated servers. Some of the others are so buggy it's crazy.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years ...after the Merry Christmas.

I tried the Irreverant but the people there were very nasty. I simply wanted to ask a few questions not answered on the web and first off none of them answered. Simple things different between each server such as does the Bazaar work here? Then they got into the whole thing that when the population of server went up it crashed so I logged off so as not to "crash" thier server and

Went and played on the custom server armourus(sp) and have found it quick to get into and fun. While I think the server is set up to award players too easily it is a great server you can jump into spend an hour or two and log out having accomplished alot.
