Quote:[censored] Historical accuracy. I just want to be able to use the line: "Prepare for two scoops... of DEATH!"Originally Posted by srmalloy
The phrase isn't nautical in origin, despite it being used in Napoleonic naval fiction; it comes from the writing of 19th century historian Thomas Carlyle, describing artillery lieutenant Napoleon Bonaparte's battery firing a "whiff of grapeshot" into the Royalist mobs on the streets of Paris on 13 Vendémiaire (October 5, 1795).

Mainly because the efficieny experts determined that Silver Bullets were too cost ineffecient. Why, the money spent on one silver bullet could be used to feed an entire african family for a year.

Quote:Actually, CO didn't "light a flame under the game's butt". It was NCSoft actually willing to invest the money necessary to hire more then the 15 people under Cryptics rule that opened up a bunch of new possibilities. Stuff like Power Customization (Which some people want to erroneously attribute to the coming of CO) was in development for over a YEAR, and only because they were FINALLY able to get the staff and finances to do it, which was the primary reason they stated it was a low priority in the beginning.Originally Posted by Daemodand
A flame called CO got lit under this game's butt. Competition is good. Next thing to get lit is a blowtorch, though (you know what I'm talking about). Asbestos underwear will come in handy.
My predicted outcome? CoX gets voted "Best non-sword & sorcery MMO" yet agin.

Whereas a lot of Empathy characters are genuinely stupid, and deserving of the treatmen they get.

I for one really hope this will happen somehow, because IMO it would help break the 'gotta have em all' mentality that perudes some of the badging community.

Actually, that's not the fault of the artist. There are no mortally crafted paints, canvases, or tools that can properly capture the sheer mind numbing horror of a Great Old One. -

That is obviously not NCsoft; do you honestly believe an NCsoft rep would stoop to "dawg" and such informal language? They are steeped in marketing-speak. That is obviously a player posing as NCsoft, which is kind of dumb (and probably against some law or another, I have no idea, not a lawyer).

Quote:The Proper Etiquette would be for the person who does not want to be involved in PvP to *stay out of the PvP zone*. To go into a zone that is specifically designed for PvP, and then expect the other players to ignore this just because it inconveniences *you* is rude. This is exactly why I stay out of PvP zones.Originally Posted by Amerikatt
Ultimately, it comes down to proper social interaction and etiquette. If someone asks a PvPer to leave them alone while they're trying to get an Exploration badge, then the PvPer should respect that. It takes only a few seconds to get to an Exploration badge, and then the PvEer is gone.

PvEers have the actual reward structure on theirs. This is dumb.

Quote:The Dev's are not "bribing" anyone. The players are making their OWN CHOICE to go into a clearly marked *PvP* zone to get stuff. If they dont want to be involved in *PvP*, they can simply *CHOOSE NOT TO ENTER*. No one is putting a gun to their head. No one is forcing them to go in. You know what? I friggen *hate* the taskforces, as I dislike teaming with most people. And yet *I* don't sit here ******** about how the Dev's are evil people for trying "to bribe me into doing task forces with the promise of badges". You know why? Because it's *MY CHOICE* not to participate in them.Originally Posted by ShoeTattoo
You want the devs to continue to bribe PvE players to offer up their characters as bait to PvPers, even though PvE players by and large would probably rather not do that because ... why?
How is that enjoyable for you, because that just doesn't compute for me. At all.
"I'll have fun at the expense of others who were induced to be here for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with interacting with me, and who won't enjoy it when I do. Wow! How cool! Sign me up!"
Is that the line of reasoning? -
Quote:And what about those people who LIKE how it is now? What if THEY don't want it to be changed?Originally Posted by ShoeTattoo
To the PvP players who are having a hard time getting the issue raised by myself, Samuel Tow, and others, consider the following scenario:
The devs in another game decide its a great idea to require you to scratch your backside at a certain point in time during a certain battle, while a camera records what you're doing. If you do as instructed, you get a Shiny Reward at the end of the battle (a +6 buttscratcher or something). The devs in that other game monitor that camera to ensure that you do as your told, and they withhold the +6 buttscratcher if you don't do as you're told.
You like the mission, you enjoy the battle, and you like the +6 buttscratcher. But, you hate having to scratch your backside at the prescribed time while a camera films you doing it. It makes you all shy and stuff, its physically uncomfortable, and you don't see why you should have to scratch your private regions while being filmed to get a +6 buttscratcher. You figure that the devs could have come up with another way for you to get the same reward, without requiring you to do something you dislike, and you'd like for the devs to give you the option to do it another way.
Replace "scratch your private regions while a camera records you doing it" with "enter a PvP zone to get a PvE reward" and you can work out the rest of the analogy from there.
By the way, if you like PvP, good for you and have at it. But, plenty of players don't and they're not going to like it in the future, either. Setting up in-game experiences where a very large percentage of customers can get some things they like and enjoy parts of the experiences to be had in a given part of the game, but only if they endure stuff they intensely dislike as well is poor design; its a great way to end up with frustrated customers and a steady stream of complaints.
That is the larger point being made. -

Quote:I'm not against them changing it. I am, however, against people complaining about how it's unfair to them, and how DARE the Dev's "force" them to do something they dont want to do because they *REALLY* have to have the reward.Originally Posted by Myriad
Oh, and I was under the impression the the problem is with players who think that something shouldn't be changed for no other reason then that person personally do not like it.
I'm sorry, but I'm completely on Sam's side on this one. -
Quote:Of course, if theres a BIG SIGN saying "WARNING! Pressing this button will deliver electric shocks to your groinal area!", then proceed to press the button and complain about the fact that you recieved an electric shock, then you'd look pretty stupid for pressing the [censored] button in the first place.Originally Posted by Myriad
It wouldn't solve anything. If you're hurt and you complain about what hurt you, not complaining wouldn't take the pain away nor would it remove the danger of getting hurt again in a similar situation.
Even if doing so gets you a cookie, and you really want that cookie.
