One more thing...

I'm considering making a toon on Virtue to do some RP PVP. That's how pathetic this new system is.

2. Why all this suppression?

[/ QUOTE ]
Why not?



Easy answer, Pre-1-13, bring my Thermal into SC where there good action on both sides. Get on a team and I become the # 1 target on the hero side because of my useful buffs and heals. Now the real action begins w/ 2-3 blasters, a spines scrappers, and possibly more on my butt while i'm evading jumping from rooftop to rooftop in the vacinity of my team, keeping them alive and myself alive( and i did a good job of it through simple evasion, isp management/use and my heal). Very exciting, fast paced and intense.

Now, well, my ice/thermal is deleted. I can imagine though what it would of been likein 1-13, get on a team, buff for a whopping 4% increase in dmg res, my heals are garbage and start to fizzle out. I start getting attacked, I suppress to a snails pace, my self heal starts to fizzle out, and in 10 sec I either die or phase. Tons of fun. Where's the exitement in that, very anti-climactic IMO.

I keep trying to enjoy this new ver. of pvp, but after 15 min, i'm just bored out of my skull. I have quite a few toons to pvp on either side for different zones too, it's simply just not fun anymore.

This new ver just defies logic, why in the world in a team game would you try and even everyone out and make team support roles useless? Why would pool attacks be on par w/ T9 attakcs? IMO, in the old pvp, there were logical counters to about everything, it wasn't perfect, but it was fun. Other team got resistance, bring -res, other team spiking, you heal, other team mez spiking, you thaw/clarity/clear mind spike that target, getting slowed, bring a kin, fast paced travel powers bothering you, get or make a TA, the other teams heals giving you trouble, use poison. It was for the most part, all there.

And I love the common "big lie" of my toon is useless for zone pvp. Most know you could make most builds work. You just had to learn some basic things, like proper movement, insp management and use, and knowing, accepting and performing your role. Some people got this, and were very successful at making builds most nubs wouldn't dare entering a zone w/ like TA def for example. The ones who knew their roll frustrated the crap out of the vills and I'm sure assisted in many, many kills even if they didn't directly do it themselves. That's just one example and their are many more.

I never got this either, alot of pve'rs have no problem building a toon for farming something, TF's, soloing, soling AVs, etc, etc. but god forbid we make a toon for pvp, unheard of. Now where stuck w/ this ver. Where we try and make everyone equal right out of the box, whacky game mechanics and such to where no one has to , gasp, actually work at competing at a competative part of the game.

Wow, end rant, I never post and had it building up for a while as I wonder why I still try and pvp in this game anymore.

Sup Gibson, you probably don't remember me, but we've battled and teamed on the Vill ladder together. I used to play doms for GMW.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hey Bud...of course I remember you and GMW GMW GMW battles!! LOL

This was well said my friend. I was LOLing @ the thermal paragraph because I was playing my therm the other day & went through the same thing. It's the reason why I had to post because skill was ripped away along with the fun.

How about removing everything that people can gain from in a pvp zone & watch your complaints go down to zero.

And big deal...a red person on my post. Bring back CuppaJo, someone who actually looked up things & gave real responses to any question you ever had for her.

Hey Gibson, long time no see. Sounds like you haven't been around these forums much lately.

All this has been said hundreds of times, and all of it has been ignored. I13-I14 is a huge success, according to the devs, and there is ZERO reason if it being changed back. None whatsoever. To do so, they would have to admit to one of the biggest mistakes in game design history, and they're simply not going to do that, ever. Instead, they will use their completely made up "data" to show that the new PvP is a total success and the whole community loves it. At least that's what they've been doing.

[/ QUOTE ]

A total success?? A total failure IMO.

People just don't realize that some players are actually better than others in PvP. I'd say in PvE too but that can't be possibly true, now can it?

BTW...yes I have to use Hibernate for my dark/thermal. Every time I heal/buff/debuff or whatever I go into this SLOW MOTION! To be honest, I wouldn't need Hibernate if my toon wasn't punished for every action I take. Heck, take suppression away & I wouldn't need phase for zone PvP @ all. Phase was only for the test ladder.

The new changes actually force people into certain builds along with playing a few different ATs. I thought we had enough stalkers running around before the changes, didn't you?

Basically heroes use their blasters & storms....vils use stalkers. Great zone pvp I'd say!! No need to make up a team anymore either because who needs buffs anymore? Team work has been watered down to "This is my target, hit all your buttons and pretend to be good"

Zone PvP is horrible.

1. Why does Hibernate grey out when you use phase shift? With all the suppression these two powers help my corrup stay alive. Can't you attack a phase shifter person now? Maybe it's time to remove this change, hello??
2. Why all this suppression? Why do you punish builds that heal/buff?? Do you punish a blaster for using his main attack too much in a certain time period? Maybe drop the damage a bit after each use?
3, How about creating a zone without all these goofy changes and allow some strategy back in pvp??

I've been pvping since it came out on test & I find myself confused on why I'm leveling up any toons for zone pvp. It's really not worth it, is it?

BTW...Rogue Expansion is um a bit late. This expansion should've been in place way before COV came out. Why would I want to take a hero & make him into a villain when I already have villains or vice versa?

Is Bizarro leading your team of misfits or something??

Thanks
Gib

Please dont confuse me with your mother banzai, no thermal or emp can match her buffing skillz . But at least she says "All In" when she bends over, great sportsman like conduct

[/ QUOTE ]

zero, i didnt think you'd want to bring up my mom when you can't even rise to the challenge. Your bf told me you're so small and your "tekniq" is so bad that its hard to tell when you [censored] outta hide. And he laughs at your recharge time after your moment of glory.

At least with your mom i have enough stamina to dominate her, TK her into a wall, and impale her all night. Hasn't she told you how much she loves my lightning rod?

I think you two need to get a room and work out your "aggresion".

GMW GMW GMW!! PVP PVP PVP!!

With Shakedown leaving the ladder a few of our members wanted to continue PvPing. GMW was kind enough to open up the doors & recruit us. This is not a merger, none of us from Shakedown are making any decisions unless it's RP PvP.

I'm taking a break from the game, I just don't have the time or the energy to play anymore. Hopefully things will settle down for me in the future and I'll come back but for now I have to focus on RL.


rl ftl


plus hank and I are moving in and I really want to focus on our relationship for now.

Who is playing the wife or do alter??

BTW...

SHAKEDOWN removes everyone from the roster. We've lost too many members to continue anymore. We want to thank all the VGs who we have played against in a match or practice.

Neo still plays? lol pretty much every PvP'r should lie moar when they say they're quitting the game

[/ QUOTE ]

Looks like I've got a little stalker....why don't you find a team....oh, wait, everyone can't stand you...

I did leave the game, for almost a month...and figured out a way to at least PVP....what I do is no one's business but mine and as you can see......the old DR boys are all still together...just under a new banner and a much deeper team. You will not see me in game much, but I will be around to PVP, which is all I have cared about for the past year anyway.

Either way, get off my nutsack and get a life dude.

You said...NUTSACK!
