Where do the devs think pvp should go ??

as post header says?? ive been playing COX for over 3 years and pvped most of it,then devs came along and ruined an awesome game IMO, i think it would help the resident base of pvpers to understand the crazy devs choices if we all understood therre ultimate goals,

if they are after easy ways for new players to play,then the answer is simple sides need to be the same ie, villains need to have blasters and heros need to have stalkers and so on you see were im going with this?the problem with pvp is the balance, anyway im writing this more as an epitaph since they decicded to nuetor my beloved fort im cancelling my subs and moving on im going to find a game were development team actually listen to there PAYING customers

PS i never known customer service like this with all the new competion on its way, methinks COX devs should at least be thinking about how there gonna feed there familys and pay there bills in the future cause you wont be getting my help with that , Also i would like to say a big thanks to all the peeps that have helped me over the years and thanks to all the frinds ive made i will miss you all , hope to see you all on another game

They think it should stay how it is.

They are happy with it and apart from possible mini games like capture the flag etc it won't be changing any more.

Will be sorry to see you go Enjoy'd our PvP when it was good.

They said it was previously not suitable and I read that this new base which they've restarted with, i.e PvP revamp, is still not perfected which is promising. I think they'll pop something out of the bag with PvP.

Really? My first experience of pvp back in around i8/9 was that of utter disappointment. To find out that my grav/emp troller would get steamrolled by anything that it came across (even a dom) was completely off putting. This was simply due to the unbalanced way the AT's where created. They where supposed to be unbalanced. Some where created to "support" other AT's but in PvP this just didn't work.

Now i can gladly enter any pvp area with my troller and at least stand some sort of a chance and for that i am truly grateful for the changes. I have yet to find any thing i have an issue with (albiet its hard to pvp these days with the lack of enthusiasm about it). They have been trying to do that in my opinion; balance the entire game out by adding extra bonus' to AT's and removing particular effects and protections which in PvE make sense but not in PvP.

Overall a big thumbs up for me. (that said i did enjoy PvP as a scrapper before but having made the initial interaction with a rather useless set i'm happy to know everyone is being considered)

later darkbane mate ............. but on another more straight to the point note, its going where ever they want it to go, they cudnt give 2 fooks about wot we think or our feedback even when they know they epicly fail, pvp will always go the way the devs want it n not the way we want it even tho we pay their wages, i got more customer service in 20 minutes on champions test the other nite than ive ever recieved in 2 and a half years of CoX .... u all fail and champions is going to kill you and i cannot wait u silly bastards !

LOL @ Empath getting owned by a dom btw. Empaths 'were' the most survivable toons going pre i13.

Champs Online launch i'm feeling with kick this game in it's plums, through their own fault of not listening to player feedback. GG.

The devs think PvP should go to the recycle bin.And then hit empty recycle bin.

You see in my opinion that was balanced, an empathy defender or controller is used for team support the game never was and never should be balanced for 1 vs 1, a grav/emp is/was there for mild disruption with cage and team support nothing else.

And just like Globey said an Empathy was up there with the most survivable buils pre i13,

Exactly - someone with the empathy set should not be great at pvp as they are far more into the team support side of things. They are about healing others, thenmselves and making others better. They should expect to be able to go toe to toe with stalkers, blasters and scrappers cos its not what their set is designed for.

I think even if they intended it for arena. They just slapped on zones where it doesn't work that well.
They said they were fixing zones and base raiding.
Soon.
Cue benny hill music.

Yeh CoX is over.

I havent been in CO test but have been hearing bits and bobs about it. Sounds like the pvp element is getting attention.

If CO goes with the eu/us server model will you be going to eu? Same question for you other pvp'ers, rent etc. Would be nice if we could start afresh over there together. Pick up where we left off with our friendships and animosity :P

I am tempted to try US servers but if a few faces i know from pvp go eu i would too.

Spag is a powerset of his own.
