Uh we have target callers and focus fire all the time. Any siege leader worth a grain of salt will be calling targets. Just because you can't tab target doesn't mean you cannot focus fire. If someone isn't calling targets in a darkfall group prepare to lose every fight.
It's less about player names like your traditional tab target mmo and more about positioning and landscape. A generic, simplified example would be "target the dwarf who is overextending on the left." Even in massive sieges targets are called. It just takes more skill, positioning awareness and quick reactions rather than just pushing an assist button. |

Focus fire in darkfall, happens at most sieges at least. cant find a longer vid atm. |
|
call playername -> have all allies target said player -> boom! In Darkfall this is not possible, especially when you look at 50 players infront of you who look all the same. |
|
Only possible, when there's single targets. Now try picking single players out of a group. |

Originally posted by Gdemami What elements does it take away? Also, consider in the case of darkfall there is a third person view so the asthetic element is still there. In a traditional mmo, you automatically acquire your target and hit some buttons. In darkfall, you manually look at your target and hit some buttons. If I am tabbing to my target, I am also looking at them right? What is so fundamentally different? |

Originally posted by RealPvPisFPS You're being facetious right? I've never heard so much malarkey in my life. First person shooter gameplay is a valid play style, just as turn based and more tactical tab targeting are valid play styles. How dare you imply that your way is the only right way! Honest players, yeah....right. |

Originally posted by Yalexy So the fireball that your group fires should pass through everyone else and hit that single person? Your complaint is invalid. |

The problem I see with Darkfalls FPS-gameplay is, that it becomes a zergfest in large battles, and that's quiet the opposite of tactical precision warfare. |

This is exactly what I don't want to see. It is a horrible zergfest. |

Originally posted by Yalexy Bad clans zerg. Organized ones do not. That was a problem with "elite" players who thought they couldd leeroy jenkins everything. I wouldd tend to have a group of "heavy" which engage the enemy while other gorups foruc fire the back racks or any stragglers. There is a lot of strategy when good commanders lead. |

Originally posted by gekido Some people will have challenges when collision detection, line-of-sight, elevation, the terrain and nearby objects affect their 'pvp'.

Originally posted by Yalexy It is entirely possible, did you read my post? We focus fire in large sieges all the time. And by large sieges we have been in 100 vs 100 before and we still call shots. Go back and read my post it has a description of how we do it. |

Also, what you fail to realize is that this is an AOE on a choke point. The problem is that you had some idiots who did not push together when the AOE was finished.

This game is clearly not for you. If you can't handle collicion detection just don't even post here. Then you talk about "recision tactical warfare" *facepalm* |
