"The truth of the matter though is that they don't know and they can't know until somebody LETS them know." It seems only NC Soft is interested in breaking the rules. SoE wont do it. I have my doubts with Blizzard. Blizzard looks to be an up and coming MMO company. When I think of WoW i only think of PvP Tier Ranking. That is it. When I think of SoE, I think of Scripted Events. When I think of Play NC, I think of Guildwars. Where do players want to go? a)Play the zerg cuz everyone does? b)Play liscenced movie with crappy content? c) Play with hardcore PvP boundaries. Like Vajuras had mentioned- MMOs feared that if everyone had to pvp, people would quit. But when it came to Guildwars, it took a focused community of players and cashed out. Kapow. If MMO companies want to cash out on the PvP community they need to spend time developing tactics and strategies to win back their subscriptions, instead of trying to water down their games and giving people red names. I believe in Vajuras' ideas (from the article on the first post of this thread) If you can't/won't pvp, youre not digesting your games' community and foundation. If an npc killed you and COULD say "I JUST PWNED YOU LOADING PLEASE WAIT," would you still play it? Probably. and then you would continue and turn off npc chat or whatever communication channel because smart people can flip switches. It's not just PvP. Its psychological. They do it in other games too. Dominoes? Boxing? Its all head games to whittle your opponent down. Its about second guessing and attacking a player beyond digital commands. If you cant hack it then stick to single player console games. Anyways. small rant but whatever. Im new to the community. I found this forum by mistake and well a rather pleasant mistake. Ive been playing PvP MMOs since Aug 1999 (EQ1) Keep fighting the fight Vajuras. "Tell me what your gamer plays. |
