Question on character movement type

in Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
Will the characters in WAR be able to walk through each other?  Or will characters be able to surround an enemy blocking their escape?



There is a term for what I'm trying to say but for the life of me I can't remember what it is.   There was a discussion on it a long time ago in a UO forum somewhere.  In Felluca a group could encircle someone and block their escape because they couldn't run through you.

Someone refresh my memory on what this term is.  It's bugging me now!

    It's called "collision detection" and yes, it will be implemented. Not sure if it will be always on, or just when you face your opponents. It is still in development.

    In my opinion, it will bring PvP to a bigger level. Can't wait!

    Collision detection?

    It'd be cool if it had.

    There will be collision detection in the game, but there where some places where there was noone. Might be in PvE areas.

    Most of the information you are looking for on this subject can be found in this thread. In short the developer team are currently exploring all options as to implementation although we can expect to see it at least always in RvR and PvP.

    Hopefully they disable it in PvE areas but leave it on in PvP/RvR areas. That way, you can actually employ tactics to protect your ranged and healer players while in cities some griefing jackass can't block a doorway that people need to get through.

    Collision Detection!  Yup that was it.  Haven't used that term in years and had forgotten what it was called.  One guy in the other thread had a good point.  Will ranged characters be able to shoot through other characters if they're surrounded?  I guess they could technically be shooting over their heads.  Thx for the info all!

    When you enter a PvP/RvR area and you get the PvP toggle, collishion detection is on. Period.

     

    It's gonna rock so hard.

    Yah defantly turn this feature off in Citys and Major towns, if any one has played Lineage II they will know it was an utter bitch some times to get out of a town with all the morons blocking your path
