whoever said they bought the prima strat guide
"After allowing Prima to use Muse's maps to promote their game" LMAO Their game? your an idiot Prima is a strat guide compandy basically they dont make or own a piece of EQ and neither did they make the "Everquest Atlas: the Maps of Myrist"...sorry if i sound like iam being an **** and i hate verant/SoE just as much as the next guy but when i see ignorance i must correct it all you all are doing and sucking up to Muse and trying to seem like his biggest fans so get off it....he does make some nice maps but you all wont get off it i personally prefer eqmaps.com or eqatlas.com
Don't confuse the new Atlas Book with EQ Atlas
Just copying over what I posted on the update page so you can comment:
Muse sent me this note to post for you: "SOE recently began promoting their new book, the Everquest Atlas, and some of you have expressed to me some confusion regarding this. Despite the similarity between the name of this product and their use of "EQ Atlas" to advertise it on the Everquest Live site, the product is not related in any way to my site, EQ Atlas (www.eqatlas.com). While we both offer maps and descriptions, the specific content is quite different. I hope that this announcement will clear up any confusion."
I'll go a bit further.
/rant on. It seems pretty rotten of them to be using the good will he built up over the past three years to sell their book in a way that would clearly confuse players into thinking Muse is involved with it. Muse is a friend, so I may be prejudiced on this one, and yeah it is Sony's game, but I can easily think of a dozen names they could have picked that would have been just as good and wouldn't have suggested a connection with his site. The only logical conclusion to draw is that they are hoping people will go "Cool. EQ Atlas has a book" and buy it based upon that. Shameful, really. Moreover, having looked at the example pdf file SOE lists and compared it to the information on Muse's site, I'm not sure why anyone would buy that book when EQ Atlas offers far superior maps and information for free, and has been serving the community for years. Yeah they're pretty, but who wants a map without locs and camp information? /rant off.
