    At the time being Camelot Unchained isn't even a proof of concept. I look forward to how it will develope in the future. Hopefully it won't turn out like the Kickstarted games that ignored some of their promises.

    now, i'm not saying CU has to be ffa or full loot or anything, but it has to have RVR.  it's just flat out part of the legacy.  perhaps instead of a pve server, a "no safety" and a "more safety" type of server.

    I agree 100%

    Umm what?

     

    You on the right game board or did you miss the entire KS campaign with it's focus on making an RvR game?

    You stay sassy!

    Umm no, no they don't. I don't want them wasting time on something that is not a project goal nor an interest of mine. If you want PvE, this is not your game. Go elsewhere.

    EDIT: I seldom post without an edit.

    ummmm

     

    You two should go back and research what this game is about and what its fans are about.

     

    The game,  while it will certainly have some PVE,  is basically anti-PVE.     If you like PVE,   move along

    The plan that CU will not have much PvE content to speak of is the number one reason why I have decided not to support CU. From what I have read so far, what the Devs have said, is that the focus will be on PvP and any PvE will be minimal and only as "filler" in the PvP environment. If the Devs do design CU in this fashion I seriously doubt there ever will be a PvE server, or worse... they make a PvE server but ignore PvE content as bad or worse than some other PvP focused MMOs do.... so what's the point? It's better that the Devs focus on either PvP or PvE, but not try to do both.

    I do understand what the Devs are trying to "recreate" with CU, so I honestly agree that PvP focus is the correct one for this project.... even though that means Players like myself won't be participating because of said content. For the sake of the project as a whole I think they are doing it right.

    The game design and concept has been clearly explained. Go over to Darkfall and start asking for a pve server please ... no I really want you to ... go there and see how the people troll you into the dark ages for even suggesting the idea.

    PvE as an afterthought will be a waste of time, just like it was in WAR. A single skilled pvp'er gets up to 20,000 viewers on twitch. The demand is there, the problem is many stupid mistakes are made with the majority of pvp centered games released.

    League of Legends alone should be enough to convince you the pvp crowd is enormous and pve'ers are getting bored and converting every day.

    I agree completely, that is why they need to start focusing on the PvE aspects right off the bat.  This just isn't something they can add afterwards and expect it to save the game from failure. At that point in time it will just be too late. 

    All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.

    I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.

    I enjoy the serenity of not caring what your opinion is.

    If you guys talk about PvE content...does that mean you want 300 pointless quests that ask you to kill 10 of this or get 5 of that? Do you want a deep and involved story line that you don't follow and just click away as it comes up? Are you referring to Raids and Epic gear?

    There is more to PvE content than the above and PvE content is a little bit is a misnomer. CU will have sandbox elements and as such there is "stuff to do" outside of RVR - it may not fit neatly into the modern definition of "PvE" but yet it exists outside of RVR and/or is partially integrated into RVR.

    You can work on your house and get resources for it, you can play a crafter and expand your craft, get resources with any characters, go to the Depths and try to find rare resources or start hunting the critters that are there for resources, you can attend to your "shop" and try and make money. This is sandbox'ish as it allows you to live in the world and do some other things than RVR or pure PvE content. If RVR is slow...awesome...then you shouldnt have trouble going mining or getting rare resources...use them or make money with them...it's an opportunity.

    Mark was posting in the Kickstarter comments yesterday. The team is back in the office and they are in the middle of reviewing forum software so they can implement the official forums, along with some other back end office type business (aka actually running the business side of the studio). 

    More will follow in the next few days I suspect.
