I ASK ONLY 1 THING - ALL Vs ALL PVP

bossheisenbergbossheisenberg Member Posts: 603 Arc User
in Star Trek Online General Discussion
Dear Cryptic,

I have never asked for much in this game. I have not made any demands. I get excited over any new content, no matter what it is.....

So please talk to Q and grant me this one, small request - an all vs. all pvp map, where the last toon standing is the winner. No respawns until the match is over. Why does every pvp match require TEAMS?? For fleet pvp tournaments, it would be so much easier to do what I am suggesting. If there is currently a way to do this I have never seen it. You don't need any gimmicks, you could even use an existing map, just make it so that every player is against every other player. Is this that hard?

This king of the ring map would be so awesome, so epic. The test of a true warrior. Immeasurable glory.

    Disable cloaks or everyone will just hide that has one.

    Disable all traits and masteries, and make everyone use mark II beams and tier 1 ships. Otherwise it's pay 2 win.

    Deathmatch. Just a simple deathmatch. The thing that made DOOM (and every fps after it) a thing. I always wince a little when learning about all the weird variations on a good old fashioned deathmatch. Everyone goes in, one comes out. Q would love it.
  • ironmakoironmako Member Posts: 770 Arc User
    Yup, it's an old school deathmatch. I would support this so long as every player entering has themselves "Autobalanced" So that every player is equal. I've loved deathmatches ever since Quake & Goldeneye, and the only reason why i used to love them, is because all players had an equal chance of winning.

    It's not an eve model. It's an optional, separate map that you will never have to venture into.

    This!! Thankfully there never has been forced PvP in this game and it should never even be considered!

    He requested/suggested a Qued optional PvP mode.

    He didn't ask Cryptic if he could please scam you for fun and profit... and attack your little ships as you zoom around sector space.

    Get a grip... asking for PvP game modes isn't asking for a Free for all everything goes PvP game.

    It would be better to remove pvp entirely or else stop supporting it, to improve the overall quality of the game.

    Nothing has done more damage to the game than the vandalism from trying to chase the dragon of pvp.

    lmao

    What dmg.

    Not decision ever made by a Cryptic developer has had anything at all to do with PvP. EVER.

    Its to bad to the bones of this game would still make for one of the best E sport games around. Not in its current state or any PvE dragon chasing state this game has been in since launch of course could every aspire to such greatness. The bones are there though... knowing what this game could have been just makes me sad.

    Still could be if Cryptic woke up....

    What the game really needs is a proper qued PvP revamp... where ALL the PVE TRIBBLE gear / items / traits /reps ect ect where shut off. Give players PvP ship doll... in the same way we can fly shuttles. PvP ships could be balanced without a hint of P2W or Grind to win TRIBBLE... sell PvPers cosmetic skins, camo paint schemes, fancy coloured Pew Pew lazor beams ect ect. The worst part of it all is the systems are all there and I doubt it would take Cryptic all that much time to hammer out... they have a high end esport worthy game and for some reason have never been able to see the potential.

    Didn’t someone say they are working on making sector space an open pvp zone?

    Kind of seems like you're saying the 2 things preventing STO's PvP from becoming a big time, high end "esports" showcase is that it lacks cosmetic microtransactions and that the PvE gear is just too darn good in PvP.

    Is this a joke post?

    from my observations, that's not really a material factor, there are plenty of ways to bust a cloaker, even without spending hundreds of h ours grinding for gear.
    It doesn't matter how many ways there are to "bust" a cloaker, when they fly 50km away in a random direction.

    Soooo..... they've never "balanced" some game mechanic in a way that changed it's PvE performance (like, say, Sci), because of issues with PvP?

    Really?


    (realistically, even a decision made by the devs to reduce support for PvP, would be a "decision made by a Cryptic dev that had something to do with PvP.")

    @bossheisenberg
    Would be nice to have the option at least, I've always thought a "free for all" mode would be a welcome edition.
    Though, I'll admit, even if they added it to game, it would not pull me back into the STO pvp world.

    and how's that different, materially, from the Wells that crosses Ker'rat faster than maximum impulse on cruise, hammering cloaked ships before they even see him? (happens all the time, btw).
    Something happening is by definition different from nothing happening.
