I was in RV on freedom around 6pm est 9/30/10 and joined a vill team with a guy on it named NC_SOFTOCHO , we all just thought he was a reg player being funny, after awhile he said he had to get back to work then left, but then he sent all of us in RV an ADmin message saying he had fun. We were all blown away , everyone was wishing we would have drilled him for questions about pvp, have the devs played in pvp before?

Ocho's been spotted hanging around Triumph Watch as well, one of the collection points for the vocal pvp players.

Far as I can tell this is how it is. And unlike other nc employees he actually spends time talking with the players. Someone make this guy the pvp dev already. I don't see any possible downside; he's already an employee there and its not like he can mess up pvp or anything.

The last time a dev showed up in game for pvp annouced they got so badly trashed several people got temp bans, and then we were scolded and told "this is why they don't care about pvp". We forgot to worship them.

Mad props to the Ocho he does try.

Hes even gotten on vent with us before.

A dev doesn't need to show up and listen to pvpers. By now they have ignored years of feedback from pvpers. Look at all the lists and stuff stickied in this section of the forums. Instead, the choose to speculate on changes that may appeal to players that don't pvp and who couldn't care less.

If you like and respect mod08 don't ask him to support the PvP community.
He will get canned.

Wow, been a while since i've posted to these forums.....
This is one of those "You know you don't care anymore, when...." moments.

Back to closed beta on that other game. d;D

we should send them fruit baskets like the pvers do - then maybe we would get something.

mod08 actually likes pvp. i caught him saying he loves trowing sharks at people.

I also asked him to bribe posi and/or castle with a food basket for em to fix pvp and he said he had tried that. which if you've seen posi or castle's figure, doesn't bode well.


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.

Yeah, he seems to have a general interest and understanding as far as the perpetual "**** that *** *** i13" thing. Some solid ideas, too. I just wish he was actually able to make some changes. Unfortunately he doesn't have a real say in what actually happens and is implemented.

Hopefully that changes in some way or devs actually listen to what he relays. Til then.... random 1v1s and failed Leagues/Ladders. Oh... yay.

Just FYI: Anyone with an underscore in their name will be the real deal.

Players can't put underscores in their names. Only NC/PS team members can do that.

Apparently, he shares the sarcasm of everyone who posts on this board.

Except that as far as I know he's a member of the community team, and not an actual developer.

That's my personal account, I find throwing sharks at people to be remarkably therapeutic.

theOcho is a Fire/Therm cor.

Perfect example why it's all too easy to turn a back on pvp.

There's this too...
