Any information yet? Also, odds on F2P? |

What we think we know: based on the Planetside 2 engine, or mostly. Very sandboxy - a lot of player created stuff. Eq2 also has a lot of this going on with housing and guild halls and dungeon creator, and even in game items, but not quite to the level we should expect with eq3. It's supposed to be the biggest mmorpg ever made, or something, I may be paraphrasing in my fanboy hype slightly. They did say a long time ago that they were going to use some variant of the freerealms game engine, but recently (in the last year) scrapped that and started to rework it from the ground up. The only thing that concerns me is that they say this is going to be the biggest MMO ever made, and they're going to do it in less than a year? Hehe. |

Already awarded as 'best in show' even before being unveiled.. Apparently it stands head and shoulders above any other game shown at E3 (though I don't know what was shown at E3 so this is relative) http://eq2wire.com/2013/06/17/curse-mmo ... t-sandbox/ Still this is really interesting and hypealicious |

Also I would say.. Odds are it will be a free to play 'freemium' model used by pretty much every SOE game now. Also, I think this might even appear on the PS4. |

I think this "Freemium" thing is pretty much the way to go now... MMO aren't as big bucks as they used to be... STO has done a good job with there set up, buying ingame credits is literally just a shortcut to getting that stuff anyway. If you are die hard enough you can buy pretty much anything you want by playing a lot. |

And the official name is now EverQuest Next. Not EQ3 or anything like that |

This was unveiled yesterday at 8pm, and it looks good. tl;dr for those that don't want to watch 1 hour of a guy doing sand art and Dave Georgeson flicking through slides:
There's some other stuff too but well, if you're interested I'm sure you'll check it out. Here are some pics from Massively: Spoiler for Big big big:
Other stuff: You can sign up for beta right now at http://www.everquestnext.com as well as get a lot more information about the game. - Note that you are required to register through European publisher PSS1 even if you already have a US based SOE account. And this is what SOE say are the core features of EQN:

That actually sounds really good. Any news on the monetisation model yet? I'm guessing they'll got PS2 style F2P. EDIT: Well I applied for the beta. Also found these RPS articles, though haven't read yet: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/08 ... uest-next/ http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/08 ... -landmark/ |

This seems to be a copy of the livestream: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/08 ... uest-next/ Haven't watched that, but did read the articles. Does sound very cool, though gotta hope it isn't one of those overhyped things (like Molyneux, Spore etc). |
