Title: PvP servers Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 19, 2008, 08:07:18 AM So, is it the same as in OB? or did they adjust the servers to curb the span/loading ganking? I ejoy FFA pvp, but the ganking was a little much. So i am wondering what they changed about the PvP servers since OB, such as like immunity's or guard ETC...
anyone? Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: SnakeCharmer on May 19, 2008, 08:33:46 AM From what I understand, load camping is still in effect. So are level gankers.

So are level gankers. Are the forums still awash in denial of said ganking/ load camping? Really, I only wish to play to see the various WOW "pvp" guilds get camped, ganked and rez-camped into playing on PvE servers. Waylander's site had a nice link to a group who insisted they were going to "pwn" because they were 'leet wow pvpers.' It gave me a giggle to think of all these 14 year old who've never experienced full-loot (well, that's not in yet..) xp-loss PVP suddenly up against a server full of oldschool UO Pks. Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: SnakeCharmer on May 19, 2008, 09:26:09 AM Yeah, they are.
That and 'ZOMG FUNCOM U FCUKING SUK FOR NOT ALLOWING ME MY 3 DAY ADVANCE NOTICE I AM CANCELLING FALSE ADVERTISEMENT I'M TAKING MY GUILD AND LEAVING FUK U" I do love watching people flame the hell out anyone that makes a post like that.

(http://www.sheknows.com/graphics/emoticons/stars.gif) lol, sorry, been playing "My life as king", and waiting till the official launch. I had chosen a long time ago to skip the early access rush. I got my box and everything ready to go. I'm going to have a toon with you guys, and one with some of my friends who have chosen to go PvP server. We shall see how long that lasts for me, and them. :drill: Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Signe on May 19, 2008, 12:34:02 PM You can have a "toon" with those other friends. You'll have to settle on having a "character" with us, though. (http://www.realitybbqforums.com/images/smilies/tease.gif)

Ah well, lets rock. Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: ShenMolo on May 19, 2008, 04:24:27 PM Yummy virgin PvP servers for your ganking delight (http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php?t=6616)
Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Draegan on May 19, 2008, 05:03:42 PM Over the weekend I only had issues being camped in white sands.
Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Talonus on May 19, 2008, 05:19:20 PM It really isn't that bad; even if there are campers you can just switch to another instance of the zone. Of course, it will most likely get worse upon release.
Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Merusk on May 19, 2008, 05:21:49 PM Yeah, this is just the warm-up. Tho the camping gankers are foolish not to maximize their levels so they don't find the tables turned by the guys who ARE doing just that.
Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Ratadm on May 19, 2008, 06:48:51 PM I play on doomsayer ( I think) and honestly haven't had much problems it seems those guilds which cause problems thus far mostly end up getting their members curb stomped a lot by the general population.
Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Miasma on May 21, 2008, 09:17:11 AM So how are these servers going? From reading the boards it seems there are a few puzzling issues that funcom didn't address. You can jump in water to end combat and escape, casters can just run away from melee and if the melee follow they don't have any stamina to fight left and get killed, stuff like that.
Reading the forum wars between people who have always wanted FFA and the WoW PvP players who want limits is somewhat entertaining. Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Threash on May 21, 2008, 09:20:48 AM There was some spawn camping in the instance below tortage last night, i just laughed it off and went afk for five mins till they got bored then went about my bussiness.
Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 21, 2008, 11:15:01 AM I have answered my own question. I'm on the RP-PvP server. And most people are playing nice, there are a few that are not. Like the level 18 that was stalking us 3 level 8's, we whooped his ass however...3 times.
All in all, for now, its seems people play nicely, if they don't, you really DO have the option to switch instance. Its not anything like open beta. But then again, it could be because everyone just wants to level right now. maybe. Title: Re: PvP servers Post by: Xuri on May 21, 2008, 01:19:54 PM A couple small PvP-related tidbits of information given by Gaute in a "netmeeting" on a Norwegian website (http://www20.nrk.no/meldinger/webmelding.aspx?prosjektid=1225&type=les&bla=Next) where he answered questions from people:
Quote - In the next patch, you will be protected by a "Shield of the Risen" when you respawn. This shield only breaks when you attack something. Shield of the Risen gives you immunity from attacks. - Players will do the same amount of damage against a lvl 80 opponent (if they can hit him) as against a lvl 20 opponent - the damage doesn't scale up or down based on the level of the character you're fighting against. - Two level 60ies might be able to take down a level 80. - Four level 10 characters took down a level 40 in the beta |
