Project 60

[gaymer77]

Can someone tell me WTF this is? On the MMO-Champ front page Blizzard talks about that in the RP rules section but I can't find anything on Google about this.

Popular steamers like Sodapoppin, Asmongold, SonyD, Nmplol and others, and hundreds of viewers and the like started project 60 like two weeks ago. It's an attempt to recreate the Vanilla experience, which they got hyped about after the announcement at Blizzcon. The rules are basically as follows: You level any vanilla class (race doesn't matter), without using Heriloom/BOA gear, xp potions, etc. You can't mount until 40 / 60, you turn off exp at 60. You gear up in dungeons then progress through vanilla raids ( Molten Core> AQ20 > Blackwing Lair>AQ40.

They set other arbitrary rules, like you can't level professions past 300, you can only bring 6 or 7 people to a raid. I may have missed some other details, but I haven't participated in this, so I don't know it all exactly. I know on Friday, they're starting Project 70, which is essentially the same thing as Project 60, but just with Burning Crusade content.

Hoped this help, mate.

Project 60 is a joke created by a group of people in a false attempt at recreating the leveling and playing experience as from Vanilla/Classic. And sadly this bunch of people have, and some even been directed to, chosen to go to roleplay servers - and some sadly taken their time to become a nuisance, harassing some players. So, Blizzard chose to speak up again, as well, announce that there are still specific rules counted on RP servers alone.

Some Project 60 members are just doing their thing while others, sadly do worse. Didn't help that Sodapoop was talking about going to RP servers as a big 'fuck you' to RP'ers.

To sum it up, they are lvl 60 Twinks who just don't use every means they have.

He had said he wants to be on RP servers so they don’t phase, as it brings more nostalgia to the game. He also said he’s not going out of his way to upset the real RPers - saying “that’s not me”.

Anyways, they’re moving on to Project 70 on Thursday, but still plan to play on an RP server for the lack of phasing.

Except the not phasing part is a bull excuse, as it does phase - At least Argent Dawn EU does.

[Lochton]

I don’t believe they do. There was a bug that made them in the beginning of Legion, but it has since been fixed, as far as I’m aware.

That is cities, dear. Trust me, in the open world, there's still phasing. I play on Argent Dawn.

That's what Project60 is. HHHmmmm...

So these are people who are likely to roll on the new classic servers?

This activity that players have been doing for years suddenly has a catchphrase associated with it? Jesus christ.

Seems pointless to me to do on Legion servers with the tuning/xp curve.

Now if it was Ironman 60, it'd be a lot better already

Naked 60 = 4000 hp, meanwhile damage skyrocketed, while monster health got like halved.

In true vanilla noone had 10000 health unbuffed, now any 60 in some blues and especially epics reaches that easily.

Great summary - thanks for posting it. Sounds interesting. I for one won't be participating, having leveled two toons through vanilla to lvl 60 raiding. But it's cool they are finally doing it for all those that have asked for it (or that they are thinking about doing it).

[Linri]

this sounds cool to me, as someone who plays with exp capped characters from time to time i am truly intrigued by the community this has started

plus its cool to see how much more interesting and challenging the game used to be considering AQ40 is ran with 7 people
