Are you guys having fun with this league?
It doesn't seem like it from the outside, but maybe it's different inside the league. -

I got an even better idea. Ban the exploiters with hatred and fire! Who's with me?

LOL so funny you say that... isn't that what this whole thread is? Just another please devs fix it thread?
So nice that you and some can be exceptions to this rule.... way to double standard mate. I'd like to see you chime in with that statement next time I help someone with teleport and/or Traps or something only to have 15 peeps who have no clue about either chime in with opinions that should be regarded as worthless. -
This is the biggest fault with COH and has been since launch. It's the reason subscriptions aren't as high as they should be in the era of the superhero movie.

Quote:I PVP on Freedom all the time and I don't think any activity on Virtue would jeapordise the PVP community there. I know several PVPers from Freedom who have already expressed interest in rolling alts here on Virtue. If anything casual-friendly events would help introduce players into PVP, increase PVP population, and help COH's PVP cmmunity ikn the long run.Originally Posted by Tokyo
Xan, I still say if they want a taste of competitive PvP they should move to freedom. That's where the PvP is happening. It really isn't fair to fracture an already dying PvP community.
That's always been my focus too. Do you remember the Sadistic Seven RPVP events?Quote:Originally Posted by Tokyo
If it's RPvP than that's quite different, I more than support it. I'd love to see some combative roleplay between RP groups.
Anyway, anyone interested in helping running events please do get in touch.

Hey Tokyo, didn't know you PVP'd.
Anyway, I had a feeling a lot of these concerns would come up. Here's how I understand it:
There's three types of events I'd like to see happen.
1. PVP for PVPers
This would be your typical Arena Fights that could be 2vs2, 6vs6, or even 8vs8 if we have enough people! I imagine this will be aimed more towards people who PVP a lot. For this reason I imagine this would be a very competitive type of event.
2. PVP for Casuals
This would be an event with less emphasis on stacked teams and more emphasis on casual players being able to take part without feeling left behind. This event will be aimed towards people with concept builds or PVE builds who'd like to try out PVP.
3. PVP for Fightclubbers / Duelers / Melee'ers
I've noticed there are a lot of players who like to play 1vs1 in melee and just duke it out street fighter style until one person dies. I'd like to create a "King of Iron Fist Tournament" style event for people who like to play melee vs melee.
And knowing me. If I was involved in any of these events then they'd probably have a story behind them. (Well...except the first type I suppose.
)
Right now VPVP is gauging how much interest there is for PVP on Virtue. Having a central place to organise & run everything PVP related will improve communication. That's what the VPVP channel is all about. If any of the above event ideas sound like the sort of thing you'll be interested in then feel free to join the channel or send me a tell in game to @Xanatos. -
Anyone still PVPing on Virtue please join the "VPVP" Channel. (Without quotations.)
We're looking at starting up regular 6vs6 teams & matches in the Arena.
There will also be some PVP related events in the future. (Zones events, Arena events, leagues, fightclub tournaments, etc.)
Seeya in game!

Quote:The PVP forums is kinda like a firing range. Anyone who walks in is a target. Some people are bulletproof (Conflict, macskull, barrier, etc), some people take a few shots but manage to escape alive (newbies/average posters), and then there are those who charge into the firing range thinking they know better. These people get absolutely peppered with bullets & often become nothing more than a bloody mess on the floor. It is because of this spectacular death that they feel they are more important than everyone else. When the truth is that they're just another target.Originally Posted by Dahjee
lol yeah we've been over this before. You can't offend someone who doensn't care about you. I know you all care because of the attention given. Also, don't confuse your inside jokes for being more than an inside joke among friends. When you do it goes beyond geeky. Esp. on the internets.
Trust me, I'm laughing at you Max and many others as well! Emotions are fun!
Seriously, get a club already.
The PVP Forum is a firing range. No-one is special. Everyone is a target.
It's a mindset that extend to PVP as a whole: Kill or be killed. Play to win.
And Virtue is still not as good as Freedom. -
Can't wait to roll Xanatot for this!

First off PFF in any Arena/PVP has been nerfed and I will tell you that just about anything will blow right past your defense even though you do have resistance with it. I personally would take as a Patron set Electric armor, Power Surge, and the Mu Guardian which can heal you as a buff. The scorpian shield and Pff are like having nothing as you will be seeing the ground more than anything else as I discovered many times. I agree Max your HP, good damage, and Accuracy.
The BotZ changes have nothing to do with knockback.Quote:Originally Posted by TADA
I suggest Maxing out your power push as KB is going to be nerfed again as Blessing of the Zephyrs are planned to be nerfed too. Good luck hope it helps. -
I think each team should just play 8 Ill/Emps.
We can call it fiteklub 2.0. -

Quote:So you are saying that each server has players on.Originally Posted by Dahjee
Basically what you... and I... and the OP are saying... is that other servers have both good and bad players... but not as many as Freedom, and that Virtue is one of those servers with both good and bad players.
Thanks for the heads up.
