Don't worry, there's no stealth

The title says it all, I did some asking around and found out that there is no stealth in the game, and the source saying there was, was taken out of context.

    I did some asking around and found out that stealth will be in the game.  Does my statement have any more weight then yours?  No, because I don't know what I'm taking about.

    Seriously though, please back up your statement with facts, links...something.  This would be interesting to know.  Please don't make statements like this without facts to back them up.  It just gets people riled up for no reason.

    No links = no truth.

    Why would I make up that statement?  I personally don't care if there is or is not stealth.  You can do all the research for yourself, of you can listen to me (and undoubtably anyone else who reads the posted information on WAR's website, or you can just be negative.

    You can be sceptical all you want, and I guess we'll just have to see when it comes out.  But if there's stealth, I'll buy your guy a shiney cape

    Everyone's been over this topic repeatedly in various threads couldn't you just oh i dont know talk one of those since most of us are all under the same concensus that there is no "invisa" stealth in the game we dont know much more than that.

    and how u know its not something that will be added to the game later huh?  Why should we worry?  There happen to be some ppl who like stealth.

  • naldricnaldric Member UncommonPosts: 909

    I would say there is no stealth since from the races chosen neither of them have stealthers in the Table top, if there was scavens well using the "tunnels" and digging they can do suprise attacks and the woodelves in the forest can also, but like this... i really doubt they will put in stealth

  • swainiacswainiac Member Posts: 120

    Until there is a statement by the company that there will be no stealth or any other basis for arguing it then simply wait for game. Stealth will be in and those saying it won't are just guessing.

    *sigh* Let me find the bloody video of Mythic saying there will be no stealth.

    Be back in a few min.

    Here you are everyone who believes stealth will be in the game.

    There is also info regarding Taunts and Fear skills.

     

    Taunt and Fear

    It was not *taken out of context*. If it's false it was clearly "put there out of context" :)  As after all the video was put there by Mythic themselves and it was Paul/Josh and some other guy they introduced in the video.

     

    But like I said it cut off straight after he said that so yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they are messing with us.

     

    But I won't take your word for it ^^

    Stealth class in City of Villians totally ruins PVP.

    Not that I can't defeat them, many times I "fight fire with fire" by using my invisi flying Blaster (hero ranged high dps) and wait for them to attack someone then fry them with my toons kick ass Alpha strike. It usually supprises the hell out of them as there is no Hero stealth class as a equal. It just makes pvp so boring. Bunch of invisi gankers that just try to hit you then run if they don't kill you. PVP would be so much better if instead of cheap gankers they would have bigger fights.

    Stealth class for this game is a big mistake. They are way overplayed. For PVE I would much rather have any other AT on a team. PVE they don't contribute to a team as much as any other well played toon can. The method to wait to turn invisi to attack is useless compaired to other class toons abilities. The only real attack they have is this one "assasinate" move they get at low level. They use the same boring cheap move all the way to high levels. No offense to people who play stalkers. I don't blame people for playing a class with such a easy pvp method.

     

    If stealth is in War lets just hope they approach it better then City of Villians

  • LeftyhLeftyh Member Posts: 21

    I actually hope there will be some form of stealth although not the kind we see in WoW etc. Steath used in the right way can be a fun addition to a game. Could be something like a 10 sec steath attribute or "mirror" images of your self etc.

    You sir, are worthy of praise.

    I actually heard the "no stealth" statement at 5:18, but you are right on with watching between 6:30-6:45.

    To the OP...THIS is how you present FACTS!

    BEcause they know some freaks just sit there refreshing the newsletter video links before they come out to catch it the second it comes out ;)

     

    Might have been meant to freak them out.

    Cause morons freak out and create mass hysteria, because they base EVERYTHING from videos and not do any actual digging.

    Bollocks!

    don't know why everyone is hating on stealth anyway, just shows you what today's mmo population is like, a bunch of whiner babies.  game hasn't even started yet and the nerf cries have been started long ago lol.

  • Deathstrike2Deathstrike2 Member UncommonPosts: 1,777

    I can't believe that stealth is such a big issue for some people.  I personally don't care whether it's in or not.  I have faith that if it is in, the devs can balance it in a way that doesn't make it overpowering while still making it interesting and fun.  To me, it would just add another layer to gameplay and strategy.   It seems that most people who like to pound their chest about how much they love PvP only love it when there's a million rules to go along with it -- i.e., no stealth!  No potions!  No retreats!  No doubleteaming!    Personally, I think pvp with rules belongs in an arena.  Real world FFA no holds barred pvp belongs in the open world areas.  It doesn't have to be fair.  It just has to be fun.

    I asked around too and some people says the same as you!

    also

    I asked a bit more and... lot of people says there will be stealth, perhaps not the invis one that is in other games, but there will be stealth.

     

    So you asked around I asked around and... Im pretty sure I got reason, there will be stealth...  perhaps if someone else asked around too will found that there will be other thing similar to stealth, but not called stealth and the other one will find that there is no stealth too!! but there will be hide, and other one can find that there will be stealth, called hide, but is stealth at last... what a crap omg!

    Perhaps you dont know the uses of insipartions (yellows), tactics and that stealth got a "top range". This "range" means that some can be at your back, but with a few skills, like tactics, or some insp, yellows, you will detect them when they approach a radius. Also, while there is no percept cap, there is a stealth cap. Perhaps what happens if you dont know the rules you are playing or you dont know how it goes, but please, before you write a post like this, inform yourself and dont go crying to post of other games (WAR) about (CoX)

    A bunch of whiner babies eh? Riiiight

    If I remember correctly, the only players whom ever cried repeatedly for nerfs on DAoC were the stealthers.

    The players who dislike stealth are satisfied, and do not "cry" about it.

    I believe you have your "whiners" mixed up, a full 180 degrees.

    Word of mouth amongst players is unreliable.

     

    Mythic has repeatedly said, just as Paul Barnett stated in the video I posted.

    There will be no assassin class, no griefing, and no stealth.

    (this is one of Mark Jacob's (President and Lead Designer) rules) 

    However there will be cunning gameplay.

    Cunning gameplay has nothing to do with a stealth ability of any kind.
