Did a search and couldn't find a post on this. This game is built on the same engine as Planetside 2 and received numerous awards during E3 (even though it wasn't publically shown). The E3 award givers saw the game backstage and decided to award it best of shows, best MMO, etc. based only on that preview. These awards include Best of Show E3 2013 from TenTonHammer and Best of Show from MMORPG.com.

Class Info

Upon character creation you select one of 8 classes. During gameplay you can unlock up to 40 other classes. These classes can be equipped and unequipped to match a situation.

You'll equip a base class, which consists of 4 weapon skills (based on which weapons you have equipped) and 4 class skills. The 4 class skills are categorized as a offensive, defensive, utility, or movement skill. The class skills can be swapped to equip another class' skill of the same category. So a melee fighter with 2 offensive slots can exchange his bash and cleave abilities for 2 nukes from a casting class.

Very interested in this as they appear to have the right ideas (but then again most devs do during development).
I'm somewhat concerned about the instanced player created content they've been talking about.

EQN has my interest due to perma-death being supposedly part of the game. We'll see how it goes!

I recently downloaded EQ and had a go in the 1999 server. Oh the nostalgia, it was a terrible, but it made me remember why it was the best of it's time, and what MMO's are missing today.

I really hope they can bring some of the old EQ into Next, but....I know they won't.
So, five-card stud, nothing wild... and the sky's the limit

I was able to sign up for the beta on a few accounts. I am sure they will make everyone redo it.

I really want EQ Next to be fantastic, and I hope it will be. Hopefully the concerns I have are addressed and put to bed tomorrow.

And yea, this was confirmed by Smed to not be true.

One game studio has a chance to regain everything. Capture fame and glory long squandered. When given one last opportunity, can they come through? Can they earn back everyone's trust? Or will they fail, crushing everyone's hope and dreams. Doomed to be the biggest let down, ever? Causing thousands of hopefuls to kill themselves? Find out tomorrow!

Livestream has started. I'll try to update the OP as quickly as I can while still watching this. Be ready for some surprises. I bet they'll show a trailer to produce hype before the big reveal tomorrow.

EDIT: Not much of anything. Some cringe inducing bits, some genuinely funny stuff.

This doesn't interest me as much as the CCP World of Darkness MMO that's being developed, but it certainly has my attention.

I hope they pull this off.

If they do that.... BOOM goes the dynamite. However the music they are playing is horrible.

And believe it or not, that is actually a rough cut. I'm looking forward to a complete score.

Actual Content #1: Sample of Jeremy Soule's (Skyrim Composer) idea for EQN's theme song. Incomplete as of right now but sounded great to me.

Here we go.
