RP Default in a Nutshell

[LatzMomo 2088]

I do not mind Defender default. I would prefer PvP of course but I think that Defender default solves a lot of problems, but also creates a lot of problems because it is so complex, and quite easy to manipulate. However, defender default was originally written to cap at five players. (Meaning once the amount of players reaches five, you may call mechanics based combat.) Now, we've taken this number and doubled it. The system was built to work under a different number amount so it was a fair compromise for both parties, and tweaking the numbers hasn't made it better.

 

Guard default is gay and complicated.

 

RP default is still plagued by the same issues which caused us to change back to PvP default all those years ago, a system which we had used for most of the server's existence with the least amount of issues.

 

Doubt there's going to be a change until people start realizing it's god awful for themselves though.

So i agree, the powergamers are bad when it comes to rp default. But if someone rp'ing as a villain were to attack somebody, he wouldnt want them to yell "PVP DEFAULT!". Roleplaying as a villain is almost like being a tiny, pex-less ET Actor. People gotta respect that when it comes to defender default. Im fine with rp fighting when its done right but when its not i just want to leave. (Mostly because my pvp skills are next to none, my computer runs at 5 fps during pvp and i dont grind the **** out of nexus). Anyhow thats just my oppinion.

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.

 

get good enough to beat people who have better gear than you, run away, or have more than them at all times. fool proof methods

tbh dd is better than rp default, it just needs editing:

• contradictions need removing
• raid cap needs raising (i would argue why tf do you need raid cap lmao, when u raid, ur gonna raid in full force to ensure maximum gains and damage. the only thing that needs to be in place is fuckin timer, cuz raiding a place every day is autismo even though fun)
• what constitutes a defender needs to be better defined so that staff arent ******* retards about it (cough cough, going to spook place, getting INVITED to join them, then being aggressed upon- they're the defenders. huh??? @Humanistic)

I really can't take this argument seriously since everyone is just arguing for their own preferences

 

My arguement roots to this: there are problems to both forms of fighting. You cannot choose one without reaching some kind've complications with the players who are ALWAYS going to take advantage of the system, which should be a given. A) You're going to have a bunch've morons running around and doing double backflip barrel rolls (cleary an exadration) off a wall with their katanas and complain when they die or B) you'll have a bunch of people who don't really RP and strictly get on to steal ur pixels and raid because villian banning does't really work.

@Jerome Jonsaeus I agree with you wholeheartedly. There are  lot of edgy RP fighters who do their SICC backflip and flick 200 daggers and it's disgusting. There needs to be guidelines for players to follow and assist in preventing Powergaming
