The only problem i have with full loot is what kind of gear will we have?  will it just be basic easy crafted gear so when we do get killed by an enemy we wont care to lose it, will there be gear in game that requires allot of effort to get, via raids, questlines ect ect...If i spend 2 hours busting my butt to get a piece of gear only to lost it as im exiting the area i will be upset, now inventory loot would be a great idea, but people can just empty there inventory before they go out, now adding some % of coin loot is always a great choice also, catching someone running for the bank with gold on them is always good entertainment, i do not like full loot games cause gear is never unique...Inventory loot and a % of gold after the kill is ideal...and ZERO safe zones.

Some games with a similar pvp setup had insurance potions, if you died your chances of losing an equipped items was reduced, was a great seller in the cash shop obviously. If you lost an item from a death in pvp it would go into the guilds bank and stay there for 5 days, only the guild leader could return it to you if you payed, or after 5 days the guild leader could keep it and use the item or give it to another guildmate, was a pretty good system, the game was Atlantica Online.

I am in full support for the developers for The Repopulation, and will try to provide ideas as much as possible. I just want a PvP focused game with FFA PvP but also to have very rare loots that i don't fear i will loose...Then again whats hardcore then right lol

In my book that's just being a cowardly griefer, there's nothing hardcore about it.

That being said I'm very much looking forward to this game aswell, even more so now that I know there will be oldschool sandbox PvP rulesets.

Let's hope the devs stay true to their vision and don't cave in to the inevitable carebear demands.

The idea is to piss them off enough to hunt me, i do not pk lowbies, and mos tthe time im a rogue of some sort and run solo, i am however always up for group pvp, even if it is running into towns and wiping them out, no matter what level, I also normally don't gank people during questing, but i will look for the first chance to wipe a raid, there will be far worse then me running around this game, Darwoth from Scary Bad Guys im sure will jump on the wagon and bring chaos and hell to the server, and im sooooo looking forward to it, it will take about a month for the hardcore server to filter out all the carebears then only the hardcores will be left and pvp will get serious...can't wait, but here i go again getting my hopes up

I think I just misunderstood what you were saying, my bad. All these scenarios you describe sound like alot of fun.

Besides, griefing / ganking in a full loot environment, come to think of it, isn't cowardly at all since you're taking huge risks with your gear. Eventually you'll have so many people chasing you around you'll inevitably get owned at some point  and lose all your stuff.

I just hope the mechanics don't allow for  "naked ganking" however. You know  like in early Lineage 2 where chaotic players would run around naked just wielding their bow of awesomeness (that couldn't drop), one shotting lowbies left and right, in essence removing the risk factor.

I always get my butt kicked in these games, sometimes i win and sometimes i get destroyed lol, bottom line is, i crave this kind of gameplay, and so does millions of other people, just seems like most AAA MMO's will not offer even 1 server with this kind of ruleset, and i think it's a major mistake, there is a large market for FFA PvP...just nobody wanted the burden of trying to balance pvp with pve, repops developers look like they are up for the challenge, and for that i will support the game 200%

What mmorpg are you playing now until Repop comes out?  Counterstrike, Halo maybe?

 

 This guy is the perfect example of the bottom rung of this community. If there is something that is slightly different than the common style mmorpg they deny that a game is an mmorpg and say "oh thants an fps or some such game", in some snarky manner. I just watched the video of Repop and it appears just as much of an mmorpg as tabula rasa or fallen earth is/was.

 If you want to moan about  "thats not an MMO" nonsense atleast pick a topic that suits your complaint, like Dust 514 for example...

 Please tell me right now your not that stupid, I am well aware of the Repopulation, as a fan and a supporter I was refering to the OPs ganking comment in reference to said game.

You are the poster child for all things fail.

Never played Halo games, CS:S was a great game for it's time...I currently play Mechwarrior online (Beta) and it's getting boring fast...The Repop is the only game coming out with the ruleset im looking for, naturally im excited to get back in a game and have risk vs reward pvp....love it
