p99 is going to be monetized someday. Period. Even if there were no plans initially, it's got to happen. There's too much value in the codebase and playerbase to think otherwise. Remember, if it'...

I can see how P99 benifits from this but how does Daybreak? They get nothing out of the deal.

Maybe they are announcing something, maybe its part of a larger PR push with eqn, maybe some code exchanged. I doubt its anything sinister probably not even that exciting.

@Jenks: We know they did not look upon them favorably. Any mention of P99 was immediately deleted off the forums. There were rumors for years about legal issues. If you didn't want someone taking...

" If Sony/SOE could have shut them down they would have done so years ago. " What would make you say that? I have absolutely no reason to believe that.

@Wilhelm: See, that's where I'm at too. SOMETHING here is going to go wrong or there will be a catch. It'll turn up eventually. @Jenks: If Sony/SOE could have shut them down they would have done ...

I find the news awesome at face value. I have several friends who won't play on P99 because it isn't official and even though I have played there, I always was hesitant knowing it could be shut d...

I keep looking at this and (because we're talking about SOE/Daybreak) wondering how it will go wrong. My first guess is that somehow Daybreak will end up being the bad guy either due to some unst...

@Wufiavelli: Why make the street cred play now, though? What changed? I'm struggling to believe it's just because they are DBG now instead of SOE. Something changed or a new opportunity presented...

Competition is minuscule at best. Players who are are on P99 are most likely players who would play both a progression server and P99. On the other-hand they get street cred with a hardcore fan b...

Oh, there is most likely something brewing even though P99 is really only slight competition to them. Very few people that play P99 would actually play Live if P99 didn't exist. That is where the...

@Wufiavelli: Raising awareness of P99, which actually can be viewed as competition, is a cost to them. There has to be something brewing. @Hans Erik Borge: Our community is speculating that Daybr...

Due to the general unavailability of EQ Titanium and not wanting to torrent it..does this mean that you can now download the client from the p99 site?

Generally i think it is a smart business move to reestablish some credibility with something that doesn't cost them anything.
