I wonder if the dev's ever get creeped out by the fanboi's that follow them into threads cause they stalked them in the dev's digest. That's only explanation for badge questions on the PvP forum.

Sad thing is base raids did successfully what they said they wanted I13 PvP to do which was interest non PvP'rs in PvP. Base raiding was my first PvP experience. They where beyond fun and I miss them. I really hope they will be brought back regardless of any PvE trial connection.

For those that did follow the dev post here and have a hard time understanding why the community as a whole would be so rude to a simple announcement i13 PvP changes where pushed through even after the dev's where told they would ruin PvP. They where told this in an intelligent and polite way and where still ignored. So i13 went through and poof went the PvP community and no it probably wasn't large enough to even make them blink subscription wise. But now those left are still trying to enjoy PvP though it's retarded, and yes they are angry and ignored with every issue since so getting frustrated and bitter.

Unfortunately it's loose/loose since by being angry/rude the dev's are less likely to want to help the PvP community by fixing PvP, and when they tried to be polite they where ignored anyway.

when did they try to be polite?


Positron's i13 letter: We are trying to make PvP more accessible to new players, while giving experienced PvP'ers the advantage that comes with formulating tactics around the new systems we're putting in place. PvP from now on will be on our priority list. If something isn't working out, we'll be in there tweaking it and making it work, for the entire future of the product, not just Issue 13.

You can't lump everyone in a community with one big stamp and assume that they are all the same. Yes, the PvP community may have more "in your face" people than other communities, but it also has a lot of intelligent, knowledgeable, and polite members.

Now, go away.

Hey!

I said this yesterday and got modsmacked. Needed a female touch I see.

Subs did fall when a majority of pvpers did quit after i13. It was very easy to notice this fall in subs as most pvpers have 2-4 accounts each

epic fail on my part.

Note, I rejoined and started playing again a little after i12, so I only got to experience the old PvP a little bit.

But if it makes you guys feel any better, as a primarily PvEer, I'll agree that the new PvP system is fairly ridiculous. I'm not sure I'll ever understand the reasoning behind making PvP gameplay so utterly unlike PvE gameplay.

You are correct!

The things we don't like?

Either walk away and find something else to do, which is what I did because track record says a-lot of negative things incoming...

-or- get used to it.

Free speech doesn't exist here. Obviously, and especially if you have a point.

I wish there were a more polite way to convey negative feelings about the direction of this game without actually pissing people off.

Showing numbers is telling the truth, and the truth is more often than not... a very ugly thing.


Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.

No, I can't get anything done in a pvp zone, not even missions.

The last time <and it was the VERY last time> I went to bloody bay, I found that the jello monsters I was fighting were following PvE rules, yet I was bolted to the ground with PvP rules.

I simply couldn't win.

not sure if that has changed.

Oh well, moving on then...

edit: seriously mod12!? if you are going to be so critical about certain posts then here is what your next step should be:

you should play every archetype, use every power, every build, run every mission in every zone, from lvl 1-50. do your own math and play the game thoroughly because you need to see this game from the players point of view.

don't alienate the players.

Stop trolling. You are being very counter-productive to this thread.

stop whining about i13. yeah we lost a lot of pros but look at us now with fight clubbing in sirens lol. CoP is back this will make me stronger for a few days in zones yay w/e. Honestly if you can't hack how crappy you think pvp is now or before, leave the game; if you like killing noobs like i do play some more. The day i can't kill in pvp anymore is the day ill be leaving and killing is all i care about or seeing things get killed before i get killed is ALL i care about. end of story close this thread before we have to read more effin' lame whining.

Edit: i break up fight clubs every chance i get especially when they are low HP thats since FCers dont have phase lol. (so figure it out dipzits i was being sarcastic above)

That post is going to get wrek'd.

I miss Mod08 and someone should at least show Mod12 how to edit instead of straight up deleting.

I'm not afraid.

I have nothing to lose.

I also don't take too well to bullying of any kind.

Same here Eiko. I got more into PvP in i12, before that it was just base raids for ****'s and giggles with the sg and coalitions.

Ahh, Golden Girl would be proud. Two slaps in the face already? One of them huge? Awesome.
I can easily see people getting hyped with CoP coming back, then the absolute ungodly eff-ing firestorm when it came out and people started screaming "Why's it not got PvP?! You said it was CoP!! That means IoP!!"
So...damned if they do, damned if they don't.


And sure ya can, Flea. Everyone knows us RPers are all, without fail, evil trans-gender freaks who spend all day in Pocket D gleeing out over badly done ERP in the corner. How dare you claim that there is courtesy, intelligence and acceptability in the PvP community! How dare you, sah!



For the record: It wasn't perfect, but I too prefered Pre-I13 PvP. I could actually take teleport. My Mastermind didnt suddenly magically lose about 20% of his defence due to wierd voodoomath with the numbers. And my Stalker didnt suddenly forget how to jump just because he stabbed someone...Eesh.

Because you're one of the better players, right?

Don't ever tell me not to whine until you've learned how to play this game.

And don't come on a vent with your microphone inside your speakers again.

I'll stop complaining when things are balanced again.
