Why don't you just make 7v7, 8v8, or whatever an option if both captains agree? If you can throw down 8v8, why not get more people involved?

What are your in-game Globals?: @Lord Seethe

What characters do you have on Freedom?:

Planning on transferring a psi/em blaster there.

Are you willing to respec into a PvP build?: Yes

Are you willing to roll a new character if needed?: Most likely, yes, if I have the time.

Briefly describe your PvP experience:

I was originally introduced in the Test PvP League that Jimmay ran. I liked it so much that I join AA where I could learn. I only played blaster.

I stalk Robo on Wednesday nighs and Haunt on Fridays.

I see that level 50 content is not a priority. Oh well, I guess I should look into DCUO, huh?

NCSoft keeps giving me the run around. They won't deal with PCCW, even though NCSoft is the one that chooses the hub. So, PCCW is just going to get away with it because this disreputable company has no way it can be contacted by 3rd party ISPs. So, NCSoft is hanging all of us out to dry.

So, PCCW and NCSoft are a match made in hell. Two disreputable companies with no idea of what customer service is.

"This isn't actually our problem. That is, this problem isn't occurring on our network. The real issue here is that there's a routing problem with one of our peer ISPs. We have no control over what routes your connection signal takes to reach our game servers, nor do we have any control over what routes your connection signal takes when it leaves our servers on the return path to your location. Since this is occurring with an ISP that we work closely with, our Network Engineering team is in contact with them, presently, to help get this cleared up as quickly as they can. That's the current status.

As soon as we have an update that confirms the resolution, you will be notified via this e-mail support ticket. Until then, you're welcome to play characters on any of the west coast servers since they're not affected by this. "


I filed a ticket on it and went back and forth with NCSoft support. They swore it was originally my connection, but it isn't. The above was one of the latest responses.

But, it would be nice if the powers that be would publicly comment on the problem and try to reassure us that they'll fix this before the next 2xp event. This problem has gone on for 8-10 weeks already, for me anyway.

Hopefully it gets resolved soon.

Wouldnt be suprised if it was originally designed for GR but due to the microtransactions was pushed forward to i16.

You know . . . . like the VEATS were.

Okay, maybe its time to kick the tires and see if the old "new idea machine" can come up with something...new.

I mean, another invasion?

Haven't the Rikti gotten the point, yet?

Totally agree.

No worries! I was out too. Probably won't be on much during the evening until the weekend!

There you go again... flaunting that thing you call 'having a life' again.

Global Name: @Lord Seethe
Home Server: Triumph

1. Before I13- 8; after I13- 1

2. a. blaster; that's what I was learning how to play while I was with AA

3. 8- Triumph had strong OS and Paragon Elite presence.

4. B- Team Arena PvP

5. Can't answer- I had global friends who PvP'd and brought me in.

6. 2

7. I require none of the above, but A would be nice.

8. Not sure. I don't even know who the rep is anymore. I knew it was Otelo and Heather and Azrhiaz, but now I'm not sure.

9. PvP League, but the rest seem like they would be cool too.

10. PvP should be varied and what you make out of it. They should have a wide variety of options for which PvP appeals to you in the arena.

If it were a perfect world, I'd have these options:

A. Excluded maps- maps that won't randomly be drawn.
B. DR/No DR
C. Suppression/No Suppression
D. Inherent Resistance/No Inherent Resistance
E. Status Protection/No Status Protection
F. Lethality scale (buff or nerf multipliers to damage to the participants liking)
G. No ties- Match automatically goes into sudden death next kill wins (when this is selected)

Powers like Lightning Storm, Voltaic Sentinel and Auto Turret are precisely the powers that were targeted by this fix. Making exemptions for them would defeat the purpose, don't you think?

[/ QUOTE ]

Castle, if this is true, then the patch note is an outright lie. The patch note claims:
[ QUOTE ]

This change was made to allow pets to correctly cycle through their attacks instead of getting locked on using the same attack over and over and neglecting to use other available powers.


[/ QUOTE ]

If this change was instead to correct LS, VS, and the turret becoming too powerful, it would have been much better if you had just come out and said so. It would also have been nice if we had been notified that this was a bug and that a fix would be implemented when it could. Instead we were lead to believe that this was intended behaviour and slotted accordingly.

I am extremely unhappy with the change. But appreciate your forthrightness. LS, VS, and the Turret became too powerful and now been nerfed. This happens to fix some other pet's AIs as well.

I feel as if we were intentionally mislead by the patch notes inorder to stealth in a nerf.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not an outright lie. The person who wrote the patch note wasn't aware of all the things this was intended to fix. That's one of the main reasons I'm having this discussion: Full disclosure.

[/ QUOTE ]


It seems to me like illusionists really take it up the [censored] on this one. Are you going to lower the recharge time of PA to compensate, since that is our major form of 'control' since our other aspects of control are lacking to other sets?

If you're going to follow through with this, I would suggest that you lower the recharge times of pet summoning to compensate for the fact that we can no longer slot 3 recharges in them.

You lose almost ever good PvPer in the damn game and then when you realize how much you lost you give free activation weekend and now all of a sudden arena gets a choice on the pvp changes. Looks to me you lost quite a bit of people and now you are desperately trying to get them back.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yep, except of course they announced the arena options over all of a sudden over a month ago

[/ QUOTE ]

They didn't. It was just said that it was a 'possibility' by Castle when we asked for it. It eventually became 'not by this issue' to 'no ETA' to 'get bent [censored]'.

So, while I don't see eye to eye all the time with Beef, I think he has a solid point in his assessment.
