How about we quit PvP?

Ok, hear me out, lets just give up on PvP as a whole. If the entire PvP community just rolled the best PvE toons they had we could just have PvE competitions. We could do team Speed-TFs competitions, which team can run said TF/SF faster. We could do 8v8 Speed Master TF/SF matches, which team can go through the fastest without deaths.

I believe this would be a great idea, as well as increase the PvE community(which lets face it, player-vs-enviroment is lacking players). We could have HUGE ladders/leagues, screenshot/video proof our SF/TF/Raids. Points would be as followed...

  • Fastest Time: 10 points
  • Second Fastest Time: 5 points
  • Slowest Time: -10 points

Each week we would compile the screen shots and videos, a set of judges would go through for the fastest time and award the points for each TF/SF/Raid. The rules would be very simple...

- Each team must run every SF/TF/Raid possible (competitions would be seperated into blueside/redside, winners would be awarded on each side)
- Globals can be signed up for either hero side or villain side, you may not run both, your team would have to designate which side they are competing in.
- Players cannot use inspirations, this way a team cannot sign up and use trays full of t3s to stay alive during runs.
- Temporary powers, aside from Jetpacks/Jump packs may not be used.
- Teams will be disqualified for:
  • Bringing less members than needed for the TF
  • PvE Ringers
  • Bringing more members than the judges designate appropriate for the TF
  • Using temporary powers or inspirations
  • Spamming your battle cry during cut scenes.
  • Sending tells to another team during their speed runs
  • Insulting or Trolling other teams out of PvE


With these rules, and a few others to be decided on later, I believe we can make this a legitimate PvE competition. In my personal opinion I think this would be even more fun than zone/arena PvP, and it would help revitalize the PvE community. If you believe this would be a good idea please voice your opinions in this thread, no trolling or flaming please. I am just trying to help keep the game alive, and to be honest pvp is completely boring and has far too many people.

If anyone wants to get this going PM me, and I'll get a thread started and sign up teams there for the competition. I'll also get in touch with NCsoft to see about some sponsoring for the competitions.

Teams that are banned from participation
  • "Virtuous Vanguard" Reasoning: This competition is for humans only, their alien TF/SF running capabilities is far superior in comparison to the human teams that will be signing up.

This rule was designed to keep players from having an unfair advantage over players who do not have the time to get temps or have not played long enough for veteran temps. Inspirations are unfair in the sense that some of the players may not have the resources, or understand how to use, Tier 1-3 inspirations.

This is meant for enjoyment and competition, not for teams to cheat with their 60 month vet powers and T3 inspiration racks in their bases.

Excuse me!

Going Rogue has totaly revived not only the game but PVP. We have nothing to fear! PVP is well on the rebound and the ladder is going to be a smashing success.

Not to mention, now that GR is out, the fine developers of this exemplary game will (I am sure) commit their entire resources to fine tuning PVP to make it even better than it has ever been. A true marriage of i12 and i13 PVP is on the way.

All we have to do is sit back and enjoy the inevitable and current "awesome" that is known as COX PVP.

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.

Does this mean we can use RV for having prayer circles under the statue, holding hands and having a sing-a-long?

Why not just do both?

This game is incredibly alt heavy, not to mention you can have multiple builds on one character.

RV will be used for what it was originally created for... badges.
