Having to have bots fill in for a lack of players, in a game supposedly designed for Player vs. Player, does not seem like an "improvement".

I have this same feeling.  Not trying to criticise but I am wondering how it works out.

IF the NPCs are just fillers with normal AI abilities, they will be sitting ducks, not coordinating, not running around in team formation, and basically just the stupid NPC you pull or distract or whatever.  If I want to PVP with a normal NPC mob, might as well do PVE.

If the NPC is super charged mob like an elite boss, I would go PVP teaming with all mobs and no players.  They will level the field for me.  I just need to hide and stay alive as the "real" players slug it out against my elite bosses teammates.

Either way, it would work out odd.

I concur.  I really don't see how this can improve the game?  Are there enough people around for this to make that big of a difference?

Maybe because you don't play it? If you did you would know that new players are forced to fight veterans due to population numbers. This is neither fun for new players nor veterans.

Now players aren't forced to play certain matches due to numbers but are able to play what they want.

 

You'll be seeing even less posts on these forums now that the official Fury forums are back online.

Maybe that's because there aren't enough new players to have them fight each other? Most mmos have new players joining in every day, hell even the bad ones. And yet Fury can't get enough to match against each other. Sad.

And remember, Fury was for those who wanted to "test their skill against real opponents" right from the beginning, with no "boring PvE grinding" ( I believe having to fight bots until you are strong enough to fight "vets" would be considered "boring PvE grinding" ). With having to fight bots ( hey, doesn't that mean Fury is now a PvE game also? lol ) people aren't exactly getting what they signed up for, are they?

i was offline for a few days while moving and waiting for the transfer of my services , and of course first thing i do when i get online is check updates and official statements for games im playing or plannin on .... then i go to fury jokingly saying to my GF ... " I bet they still havent updated " .... then i got foot in mouth.

My immediate reaction was OMG they actually did something positive , first they opend back up the forums... fixed the GC .... and more .... then i kept reading and the one thing im still a bit confused on is the BOT thing.

As stated bots make the game feel pveish and this game was pvp and needs players not AI i cant communicate with or tell what ot go do or work a tru strategy with. I personally havent played yet so i wont nag or say this was insane til i see for myself which i will be playing later tonite for a test run ... however i do see a pt in having the bots help fill the ques but at same time i guess u need that when theres no one really playing. i guess for tonite [me]  and since whoever came and tested it out some they ll have one more at the time ...

I also saw something on charges this should be interesting however i think if its RESISTED it should still count against the agressor and misses should be halved or something or  vice versa .... i mean in a real fight,  if abilities such as existed ,   if u were charged and u let loose ur FURY itd still take ur charges away and leave u to build them back up ... just a thought

im still not pleased with the NO power ups in 1v1 not yet implemented but hey maybe that can still be done i mean thats a simple code all together that can be done in a very short time.

I hope this fix and the next one with the forums being back up will bring vets and new players into FURY and they make the COMEBACK of the DECADE for a game ... ... if not alteast they are showing they are still trying to improve the game and maybe someday will.

See yawll tonite in game
