𝕾𝖙𝖆𝖗𝖌𝖚𝖘𝖍 2451 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Spoiler One of the members of the Norlands lmao Anyway, I agree quite a bit with Mattallamune. Though it's not necessarily RP Default but rather Defender Default, but still it's not that it's a bad thing but rather not advised well. In almost every combat encounter i've experienced recently, most of them have sadly been against some sort of magician or magical entity. Even magical entities that have PVP Buffs have denied us Defender Default to pvp when they have more of an advantage than us. Not to mention, that even when mods are a part of the combat or observing what's going on they even have a difficult time distributing Defender Default to the correct person. Even the PVPers on the server said that they don't care if Defender Default is a thing on the server, but only when it is impartial to both sides rather than favoring Role-Play because it's one of the main aspects of the server (even though wars, raiding and banditing have also been on the server since its start). Personally, I think Defender Default should be called at 4, 5, or 6 people and the raid cap should be raised from 4 to 8 or 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narthok 10416 Share Posted September 5, 2017 People just want to be the ******* hero all the time. If there was an established system for how rp combat should happen, with no rolling then maybe it could work. Shout out to @L0rdT0mas, my good friend.

DarkElfs 160 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Not be rude them that like pvp and all but with pvp it makes people just want to grind for the best gear from nexus making less of a chance for even rp to happen let alone just some simple talk in rp. If you ask me pvp good when it's kept and done right so I agree their a lot of the roll players and power gamers do ruin rp there what makes it hard to keep the rp fun but that's my Two cents here then.

LeoRabbit99 360 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Lmao, you can't go to a mage randomly and be like "Fight me" then expect pvp. Edit: Oh nm it's a meme, only watched the first few seconds when I wrote this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoRabbit99 360 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Okay now that I've actaully watched the video, here's my two cents: True, RP default does cause a lot of powergaming but pvp default also brings complications to the table. You can be walking down a road and a bunch've morons are gonna come at you with diamond armor. They're gonna say "giv' me yo **** or die". That's ******* dumb, I'd rather be stuck with some PGer than in that situation. The server is going to loose a lot of its rp aspect and will turn into a big pvp **** fest. Either way your gonna get problems. Honestly I think an actual roll/character build system would work. it could cause a lot of people rushing to the top but people already do that and in any case it would bring some form of stability to rp fighting. Anyway, that's the short version of my opinion but it ain't my server. Hopefully it gives some kinda insight though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfelt 1437 Share Posted September 6, 2017 @KinslayerBoy Edit: Whenever I'm rply fighting, I make compromises, if someone goes to punch me close range, without much of a warning. I'll try to dodge, but the attacker will normally still manage to land a punch, even if it isn't right where they wanted. Though I can say that it does suck when you make these compromises and the person your fighting doesn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are you to tell them what their characters do? If they're powergaming, punish them for powergaming. Being a villain is not the crime, powergaming is.

arakrsptec 171 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I agree for the most part that it can be bad, but I don't think just ditching RP default is the way to go. Both systems depend on the parties involved to not 1) in RP default, powergame, and 2) in PvP default, bandit and force PvP just for pixels. As it goes now, neither are enjoyable for everybody. I'm happy with RP default now because majority of my fights have been fine. Only when groups are toxic to a certain member does it evolve into a shitfest of OOC requiring mods. That's usually not enjoyable for either side, but it doesn't lead to me being Pvped by dudes who spent days grinding for their diamond ****. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
