    There will be some rules for pvp, not mindless zergs.

     

    not  mindless zergs....soo the 2 sides agree to go into war?, nm what penalties you put on it, not saying you are wrong, but saying Ive yet to see a PvP MMO without ppl go out of their way to kill others when possible.

    but well their feature list is amazing....so why not have made an amazing PvP ;)

    It could be similar to TERA in that you "Declare War" on someone and they have 5 seconds to react. That wouldn't be so bad. Personally, I'd prefer not to have any PvP what-so-ever, but considering this game seems to be based around tribes, you can probably expect that there will not be any such system in place.

    I will try hard not to get excited about this. Nice to know it's out soon though. I can't wait to take part in something with that kind of depth. Just, please deliver.

    Longing for Skyrim, The Old Republic and Mass Effect 3

    If this game was pure pve, it would get boring pretty fast.

    Wondering if the site is down for anyone else, I get weird problems with my net so just askin here haha. I wanted to go scan the forums for more of this posting from the devs because I still find it weird that they copied CCP's TOS .

    Okay, just making sure, I think malware got installed or something when I wasn't at my pc then. Randomly certain sites won't work and redirect me places. dns flush time.

    When sneaking you are invisible to players that can't 'perceive' you.
    Basically for some players you will be invisible, for others you might be part visible which means you are successful in hiding from a distance, but not up close
     
     

     

     

    Stealther classes have been one of the major ruining PVP characteristics in many games. Please remove them now before the game goes live and we are stuck with them.

    Good thing its not class based. Maybe stealth will resemble UO's version?

    I really wish games would go back to how MUDs and the first Graphical ORPGs did stealth / Hide In Shadows.. Basically you had to be near something that cast a shadow like a tree or a wall. This ' hiding in the middle of a field ' is beyond annoying.

    By the same token though, how do you spot someone you're not looking at? Sneaking up on someone outside their field of view is somewhat invalidated by a third person view, unless you make other players less visible outside of the character's field of view (the direction the character is facing). I think that's more of what the person was talking about.

    That actually sounds pretty neat.

    I will tend to agree that stealth is very hard to balance. This isnt going to be like WOW or UO, you cast a spell and POOF you disappear.

     

    People will have a perception skill that will detect or see through it. NOT like UO where you are either in or out. Its a fading skill. The person will be very very see through like water, to a solid mass you would see. Sorta like predator the move.

    Thats the plan at least. Its based on a per person too. So you might see someone very solid, while others wont see them.
