I got so much |
I mean seriously. How will it work. What will be enforced there ? And how ? How will RP - PVP server be any different than PVP server ?
Will you force gankers to gank in character To type "Ye die by my blade , arrr!" instead "LoLZ Pwnzorz n00b" ?
It wont work Funcom. Just wont Give us PVE-RP server , like god intended it to be !

While I'd never use one....
The PvPRP servers on WoW got PLENTY of traffic. Technically, for certain universes...removing the 'open warfare' also removes any form of believable RP. I mean...how can one truly role play in the conan universe when all forms of personal combat must be agreed to like some french duel? |

I totally agree. I understand people that want to be able to attack somebody whenever it feels apropriate in the situation but another thing that worries me: Ok so I was cheeky talking to the wrong guy and he decides to attack and kill me...now what? Is my character dead? Do I have to reroll (either IC or create a totally new character)? I used to play in SWG where it of course happened now and then that characters were killed but that was in consent. I would be really annoyed if there were some of those 'my character is the strongest, best-looking, smartest oh and by the way invincible'-people that decide to kill everyone that won't accept their poweremoting and afterswards tell you OOC that he will ignore your character IC from now on because he killed you. In my eyes it's not only the being afraid that non-RP could chainkill RP or disturb their RP by attacks all the time but also the problems that could occur when people with different opinions on how strict and realistic RP should be when it comes to character deaths. |

I often PVP-RP. Yes, it is a verb. In VG I played a Necro bent on collecting elven souls; I even met a few people who joined my cause. In-game genocide. It was great. But I took the RP seriously. It really means more when you construct a story and act it out through your RP rather than just kill stuff.

And to the poster above me: Yea I actually ran into the same problem myself. I just assumed that they lived in a world where you could never really die, but on the bright side you can punish infidels through pain, suffering, and momentary disembodiment as much as you want.

Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his brother. |
The Hyborian Accord and the program similar to the Ark program in AO, plus FC customer service :) |

I believe that those that participate in the 1-13 open beta will understand what method FC used to facilitate the resurrection of the player characters in the game. |

Something must have happened to the gene pool lately... |
Originally posted by LobotomistTrue MMO is based on freedom.Freedom to PK or hunt PKs or just do nothing. PvP-RP is thre ruleset to go.
But i agree Lobo. It wont work ;) But thats not Funcoms problem. Actually you have the posibility to enforce the ruleset on your own on a PvP-RP server. Lets hope its possible to lynch under that roleset. It would fit very well into the lore :D
However, you can roleplay on any server. Its not bound to a ruleset. It only works in a roleplay guild or a serverwide roleplay chat channel anyways. |
