EQ2: GU49 live!

Via Taymar at MMORPG Info (always a fantastic place for information about EQ2 and other games), EQ2’s game update 49 — the last one before the expansion — is live. GU49 introduces guild halls, multicore support, and more. Perhaps another chapter in the Anashti Sul world event?
I THOUGHT they were doing a tailoring update with new colors and patterns, but I can’t remember if that was expansion or pre-expansion.
My tests with the multicore support on my Core 2 Duo-powered laptop showed a significant improvement on Test.

  1. I’m waiting impatiently for your comments on today’s EQ1 patch notes. The changes to character death, gear and group mechanics are rather major. In fact, I would say game changing.

  2. @Egat — well, let’s hear your thoughts about them. I’ll put them right on the front page. I am not on the EQ front lines these days, just doing my thing back in old content.

  3. So now when you die, you keep all your coin and gear.. No more corpse runs ever… Further pokemonification of EverQuest :-<

  4. Thank you for the shout-out!
    I’m just rushing over to read the EQ write-up – no more corpse runs? I thought the graveyards were a perfect compromise 🙁
