Is there any PVP footage i can see that isn't simulated or done by bots/AI?

Seems most of the things released as proof are done by bots.. whats with that o.o?



Can the servers support large PVP from players without crashing? Or does it have to be bots ? I've seen no PVP :s

There is a lot of PVP footage on Stage6 of people playing a capture the flag mode.

They speak truth.  I read it on their forums by the mods, there will be CTF type mini-games.  I'm guessing they'll be more popular on PvE servers than PvP.

We are recruiting.

The PvP minigame is supposed to be 20 minutes of a little fun. Same with the drunken brawling.

 

The large scale PvP has only been shown off with NPCs so far at Leipzig GC. As beta develops farther and more players get in, we might see some actual PvP Sieging. But I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see it, as no other MMOG with PvP sieging really showed it off with 100+ players before release either.

Still, the one over the summer with some 200 NPCs in it gives you a general idea. I'm glad they at least did that. Though yea, I too would like to see actual players.

After all is said and done, a lot more will be said than done.

Yep best bet is stage 6 DivX for some GC action, thats on a beta build 2 behind the current one. However, it was said just last week to expect footage of large scale siege battles in the comming weeks. (either IGN or tentonhammer interviews forget which)

As with tens of thousands more people invited to beta.

The only siege stuff we have seen so far is a scripted trailer and presentations designed to show how it will work.

Anyway, hang in there its on its way - 4 months to release :P

We all know its gonna happen with players anyway sooner or later, so when people argue its flawed already or it won't happen is kinda silly. No one has said that when ever a scripted event happens to take it as proof, but the fact they talk about such features and show them inital stages is good enough for now.
