Warburg coming of age?

last couple of nights in warburg have been great, loads of people in there with lots of fighting and precious little trashtalk.

Last night was mad with a ton of great people in there, must ahve been 30+ around the globe as I was in an 8 man team and it was still a sea of orange there, tactics seemed to go pretty much by the wayside due to the way the dynamics changed so fast with heroes and villains jumping into the fray, taunts going off all the time. Im sure I must ahve killstolen and had kills stolen from me but that never bothered me anyway (nor anyone else last night)

Warburg is a crap map imo, its too busy (by busy I mean programing details) and the server lags terribly with a lareg amount of people about and the mobs are not fair on squishies if they get knocked into/accidently agro them but the people made the night and I hope it stays like this. Sirens is getting a bit whingey IMO and the extra dynamics that up the lvl 38 powers bring is a lot more fun.

Heres hoping warburg becomes the staple pvp zone, at least till i7

Its your fault

Is it true States and Arachnos will be in that new PvP zone as a sort of raid encounter?

Maybe another urban myth..

Pretty sure there is. States/Recluse will come and help out of their side is losing badly.

In a Star Wars Battleground kind of way?

Boy, I love whipping out a rocket launcher troop just to launch Darth Vader over the edge on the Bespin level...

but that was when I was on consoles.

I like night's like in the orginal post; lot's of people just getting down to it. Can't say I've noticed much less whining in Warburg though.

That's correct Max, there's Starwars battlegrounds 2 on PC aswell, I know coz it's sitting over there on the shelf

spent alot of time in both, sirens broadcast is incredibly whine'y ( might have something to do with claire voyant)

IMO warburg is the better pvp zone, purely because we have more skills and theres less whinning there..

Ooo sound intersting, like to see that if it happens.

I'd wondered when Warbug would take off. Must pop in for a nose, been mising decent PvP

On a side note pmsl@empath for the squirrel of doooom

Been checking out Warburg trying to pick on a few targets, the upgraded bots make a significant difference when targeting squishies aslong as I see them before they see me.

The phase shift temp power predicatbly seems a lot more prevalent though. Is it possible to do that patrol mission for any level hero or just those not too far past 40?

Is there any planned fight nights in warburg? Massie Battle Royales are painful, though fun.

Stalker, make sure northi comes next time

Warburg is awesome , love the big fights and i think its more balanced in there too


 

Posted

Yep i'd agree, it's a much more balanced environment. Had a great time there last night. Although the duels on the rooftops seemed to turn into a competition to see how long i could hold out against all of you every time it was my turn to fight someone lol I can see us Regens being in for a bit of a nerf again though

Glad to see Warberg coming into it's own.

Zep.

already moved all of my +30 alts from sirens to warburg

warburg seems to be coming the new pvp zone fast, its great! it means my nrg/stone brute actually has armor when she pvps, and its MUCH less agro there *coughnogigglescough* although like stalk-obot says, the npcs and server lag in warburg is starting to become a joke, only those who dont care about debt venture there, and no matter what u say us stone brutes take our fair share, theirs alot of psionics in that zone . but other than the need to turn down settings and the debt from npcs, warburg is fun, and a much more balanced pvp zone

I've been having a lot of fun there too with Red Right Hand.

in my view sirens points to the area outside hero base for the best pvp area, droning and safe zone camping all cause whinning on broadcast imo

I prefer Warburg because of the resulting fracas of everyone going 'sod it' and jumping in with either a mate or their sg, or on their own. Because it's just mad, there's even less point to going on the 'dos and don'ts' about actively hunting other players with the intent of GBH like some genetic clone of a Brussels rep and a UN pen-pusher.
