Hey all, sorry I just saw this post.
I play EU since 2004, I saw many things changed on pvp.
I saw many times players wanted to improved the pvp experience with posts like that.
It's a great idea but MA don't want to change anything. That is because they are not player/gamer people but more likely financial people type (like Messi said on one of his post).
They think like others company types => a dev cost must generate money after realese. That must include the dev cost + the potential revenu on a determinate time.
For me, there is two big problems :
- PVP is a small community so not the priority for MA.
- EU pvp is and will be nerfed like all shoot game by people with cheating programs. It's sad, they ruined it but that will always happen. (for exemple, when MA remove the HP bar, a lot of players who said "No I don't cheat! I'm just a good PK" was no more good on PK xD, I don't give names but most of u know them ^^)
So, to have a chance to see MA work on pvp part of EU one day, for me, the ideas must be focused on :
- the dev cost can be easily absorbed by the new ideas.
- the ideas need to be WIN/WIN for us and MA.
- the ideas need to improved the pvp players community.
Some nice ideas was said :
- LG splitted on differents categories as mayhem.
- A fee at entrance was a good idea. That could create a pool who can be splited X% for MA and X% for players who loose LG. Winners win the lands. The loosers pool repartition could be based on kills made or cost spend.
- More exclusive ressources with MU on lootable pvp like old days.
Some new ideas :
- a special mining box can be only found on lootable pvp.
- restaure only on lootable pvp the old mining spacecraft system who existed before VU 9.
- on LG, a society can only win one or two lands. (people can't leave or join the society during time they had one).
Old things who need to be back :
- Vehicules not allowed on all rig pvp area
- Pyrite/blood moss back only on lootable pvp
Just my opinion and my 2 pecs for the moment
