PvPer exodus to Freedom?

So, who's bright idea was it to move to Freedom, of all servers, for PvP? It's probabley not the brightest choice, given that it's the most populous, highest lag, and has the greatest concentration of players. Zone PvP (not that I've ever taken it seriously) is a gigantic opportunist KS fest where you can faceroll your AS, Sharks, Gloom, and, hell, even Full-Auto in there for your kills.

Why couldn't we choose a better server like Infinity or Champion?

Actually, on that note, wtf happend to Infinity?

I thought Freedom, had the highest Zone PVPer population out of all the servers?!?. I am not talking about just fightclub groups in the zones, or arena pvpers, but zone.

tisk tisk, you have a bad attitude for a pvpec rep. they should probably get rid of you and put someone in who knows about pvp and wants to see it grow.

freedom is the best choice for pvp unless you like to rpfc the same 5 people.

many would rather put up with lag than to play on an empty wasteland server.

judging by your post, poor attitude and lack of zone pvp understanding you should really be careful about using the word moron.

cry more about how zone pvp was designed to function.

As an infinity native, leading up to and just after i13 my global list was slimmed down by about 2/3's as a good many people moved on to other games. Some have made it back for a short time only to leave again, but most have stayed away.

I tried a few times to get some KB's going for new PvP'ers and what not but you'd mostly see some scrappers show up.

Freedom is where you go to PvP in zones. During and just before the Freedom League it had some nice KB's ( 8 v 8's with 2 support on each side)

ATM Champion I'd say is where you'd go for Arena/KB style matches, though they are kickball in the true sense where lineups are screwy, support is sometimes onesided or non existent, but people are for the most part on vent and there is some semblance of spikes. (Even though sometimes it just gets to the point where you can spam enough damage to out heal what limited support there is)

So PVP is still alive?!

I'm on Infinity and haven't found a soul in the zones.

How often are people in the zones and which ones?

No. The new arena server seems to be champion, though. So go there :O

a billion times better than zones, since you can actually turn off heal decay and travel suppression.

This. Zones used to be ok, but now they're just a load screen full of fail.

Never become a salesman.

I love the arena! I join a match and no one ever shows up for the scheduled match. A free badge every time!

I hope the 80 people who signed up actually show up for the matches. Because, usually what happens is you get a good initial showing and then when people start to lose they also lose interest. GL with it though.

Guess I gotta move a toon to Champion and Freedom.

And to each his own, I loved zone pvp. At its height, it was just super fun and there was a little community which I enjoyed.

I liked the free-for-all aspect of the zones.

If you are in the zones simply to farm playable characters for PvPIOs to IO out your PvE build; Farm Zones are the best way to go about earning PvPIOs outside of sitting in arena double logged and AFK farming for several hours.

Competitive PvP and KB matches are the worst way to try and earn PvPIOs.

If you are in Zones to PvP... You are doing it wrong.

Also, if you are looking to PvP competitively freedom isn't the place to do that. Freedom has taken Justices place as the fiteclub server.

How about just PvP to PvP..............not to farm PvPIO's. I PvP quite a lot and have only had 3 drops, and this is from all the arena time be it in KB's, Hours of Team Practices, and then the zone lulz whenever I was bored.

Being the best player in CoH, I've earned over 10 trillion PvPIOs in a very short time due to players with names like "Terminal Lad".

Wasn't the Test server the default PvP home (because people from any server could copy their characters there for free)?

Was, being the key word in that statement. They, for some reason, had a server limit of like 20 people, which made practices almost impossible, and the copy tool being broken for months, pretty much shutdown any attempt we had made to re-establish a ladder there.

On freedom RV almost always has people in it and Sirens Call usually does too. Some people are into Arena and team pvp and swear by it, running the same generic team. But at the end of the day, to each it's own. You'll likely find more people in zone on freedom than arena.

The Champion League is now over 87 players taking part. First matches have happened as of Sunday, and was a GREAT time had by all. Nothing like seeing 8v8 pvp matches. Still plenty of room for more to sign up, and the possibility of new teams forming. Check the Champion forums for details.

I stopped at champion and knew you were joking.
