Can we have a new pvp type please

greenkrickettgreenkrickett Member Posts: 85 Arc User
Domination is all we have had since the beginning. I would LOVE to see a capture the flag type game, and maybe something bigger that requires some real strategy to win (not GG) which is nothing but a horse race.

Capture the flag would be HUGE and I would LOVE to have this implemented in the game.

    As its now only very very big guild will be able to join. I think to midnight express and stop.
    Remember that only 75 account are allowed per guild. This means 1/4 or your guild logged in, willing to pvp and with time to wait for another guild in the same conditions.
    It will fail

    ALL guilds are capable of joining this... IF THEY SO DESIRE. They are all based on their size... SM, Med and Lrg... a Sm can ONLY fight a Lrg guild if they choose to... from what I have read.

    The MAX amount of accounts for Guilds is 150 and that is for a Lrg guild.

    what I am more worried about is... can Crytpic's server handle the mass pvp maps....

    I think this is the reason for the map being this big. It should reduce lag i suppose

    What I like about this is due to it's nature of being guild-based... there will be less leavers.

    I've wanted CTF since Beta. A place where class differences could help roles. A place where low item level players could contribute. A place where lower ping people could still help the team.

    Domination is fun. Gauntlegrym is fun. But Capture The Flag, if done right, would be the most fun by a wide margin.

    CTF, could be fun but how you balance 50% -mount vs. 140% mount... or TR hides with flag etc. could be fun to look, but might be difficult to make work.

    ...some other game modes and it needs to pick other game...

    Just make the flag still visible when a rogue carries it when stealth. Kindof hard to hide a big huge flag. This could be similar to how Ioun stones revealed rogues in IWD. It would not be too hard to balance this kind of game. If tanks and healers became way too good and unkillable while carrying the flag, could just remove the ability to use shift while carrying it.

    There will be another mode where team who spend more $ wins.

    Please, no more objective driven pvp. What we need is some sort of arena, where we can test builds and strategies, 1 vs 1. A real pvp mode, aka. Deathmatch/Teamdeathmatch would also be a great addition. Back in the days, pvp used to be all about getting kills... Now a days it's all about: "Capture this, capture that." "The enemy has taken this, the enemy has taken that.", which is kind of cool,too.. if it wasn't the primary and only pvp type.

    Can't be done. Cryptics MMO/graphic engine is fifteen years old -- it can barely handle Tiamat.

    An "action" MMO like this needs.....

    Murder Ball (was called Capture the Relic in Rift)

    I made an example PvP Murderball arena in foundry:
    NW-DOPVXMYH9 PvP-MB Murder Ball (Could be used as an Arena as well)​​

    Easy really.

    1: All mounts at highest or lowest speed
    2: Trs cant stealth while holding flag

    In WoWs CTF if a Rogue stealthed while holding the flag the flag dropped and should do so here as well.

    I loved the WoW version of CTF... as a rogue.

    I would be psyched for a one on one gladiator match... where other people could watch. I am also interested in the Murder Ball concept. If you know the story behind the Murder Ball concept it makes it more interesting.

    The ONLY problem I just realized would be un-killable dcs and Palys they would have to be fixed first.
