go figure


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.

Did you all miss the notes where they are adding cross server pvp?

I dunno. If the new custom animations include a "Pelvic Thrust" option for Telekinetic Blast, my PvP enjoyment will go up by a factor of at least 5.

No, I think he has a point. It's just that it won't affect PvP in a "good" way. Can't wait for more Hibernoobs and Regin.

Well it does talk about becoming an "incarnate" and unlocking new "powers", so if these "powers" are viable and useable in PVP. I can guarentee you will find a few that further unbalance it...

Knowing their reputation, they will probably push out a couple powers that are extremely OP (Like a ranged CS with -Percep and a Mag 4 stun *lol* or something, just exaggerating or am I?) and the rest will be gimp..

Than a couple months later the powers that were OP will be nerfed into oblivion and the gimp powers will not be buffed in any way..

Another thing I would fear is that whole fact if they have any "powers" that are viable, that this looks like it requires "PVE" to achieve all of this, and maybe even "difficult". Mixing PVP and PVE ends up bad news 99.999% of the time (*cough* RV mobs), and maybe you will have the 5-20 out of 100 players that actually get these good powers and that may even cause a unsubscribe for quite a few.

I could easily see some of the incarnate powers having overly long and exaggerated animations to purvey their 'epicness' in pve. The result could well be them doing crazy pvp damage due to cast time being such a huge factor in determining how much a power does in pvp.

Maybe, maybe not. If you take a look at the vet attack powers (like sands of mu) they do the same damage in PVP as they do in PVE. I suspect the incarnates will fall into the same category so we'll be seeing the identical damage in both spectrums of the game.
