Hi PvPers!

We have a Guest Blog going live soon titled "Increasing Your Performance in PvP", and I'd like to give you all a chance to show off your favorite screenshots from recent ground or space PvP matches in it.

Post a link to your favorite screens here and I will choose a few to be featured in the article -- this article may even end up on StarTrek.com! You'll be credited for taking the pic with your @handle, so be aware that if yours is picked your @handle will be tied to it.

Looking forward to seeing your screens!

EDIT: Make sure there is no UI visible in the screens.

Cheers,

Brandon =/\=

    tbh this wont be easy, pvp moves so fast that the match i just took a bunch in yielded nothing that you can even tell whats going on, past the fact my ship was firing at something small.

    This is probably the best I got and I dont think its really submission worthy, lol. http://i.imgur.com/kdi9rf9.jpg

    To be fair, if there's an opportunity for you to turn off the UI, then not a lot is going on, so no good pics. If something is going on and pic-worthy, then turning off the UI will probably be the last thing you do before respawning.

    The /screenshot or /screenshot_jpg command takes the photo without the UI, even if you have the UI turned on. As mentioned by others, this can be bound to a key :)

    Also, I just press the 'print screen' key. It'll save a pic with no UI in your C:\Program Files (x86)\Perfect World Entertainment\Star Trek Online_en\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots folder.

    PVP is all about the UI...

    So this one won't win due to the rules of the contest, but it is one of my best pvp screenshots: Milk? War!

    Does the demorecord doohickey record without the UI...so folks could do that and then go back to take screenshots during playback?

    I think I'll try running through some DSE's and dailies with the UI hidden. Maybe turn off the lights, too. And do it while intoxicated... yeah. :)

    Shouldn't there be a guest blog "How not to behave like an a.. in PVP". From recent topics it should be abundantly clear that it's the attitude from PVP players which stop the inflow of new PVP player cold in its tracks.

    Before such changes in attitude are achieved, any guest blogs regarding PVP are a waste of time and digital space.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Oh i dunno, i think if there's a single person who PvPs and/or enjoys the Dev blog, then it's already proven it's worth. My Guest Blog earned me many pats on the back from the PvP Community, are you saying we don't deserve the enjoyment of PvP like you enjoy PvE? Are you saying what you want is more important then what somebody else wants? Curious.

    It's clear that many players have cited that as a reason for not participating. It's also clear that some of those making that claim have demonstrated antipathetic attitudes of their own.

    Of course. It's always someone else' fault. "They" need to change their attitude.

    The PVP community is close to exhaling its last breath so if said PVP community wants to attract new players then THEY should change their attitude.

    Remember that those who made the complaints do PVE where the occasional loudmouth also shows itself. For them to complaint about the general attitude of the PVP community means there is something terribly wrong and your response is only another example.
