Who's quitting blue for the new pvp teams server?

[Faerie]

Show of hands, please.

[FoxxHound]

Excited aboot teams yo

[Faerie]

What do you bluebies think the teams ruleset should be, anyway? Only saw a couple of you in Sirken's thread about it.

I like SZ teams, but no to training.

[Faerie]

Spamming my own thread because it's late and no one is on :/

Teams seems like a great way for red players and blue players to sorta meet in the middle. You get the safety of your own team with the added spice of pvp. To maximize the amount of safety, I could see some curious bluebies hoping for just 2 teams instead of the 3 with SZ rules. Am I right in thinking this?

2 teams wouldn't be terrible, but I'd prefer 3 so I could play underdog good team :)

Been geeking out really hard since Sirken made that thread hehe

I don't like team based PvP because odds are the sides will end up horribly unbalanced. I guess that could preferable to random PKing, but I really enjoy having the option of PKing people I don't like on my side. I definitely killed a few guildies and group mates in Lineage II.

[RestoreThis]

shoulda included EZ server bruh

[Hasbinbad]

where is the option for people who find this whole enterprise futile because the classic era was conquered by them?

This reads so awkwardly to me.

As things are, red is already horribly unbalanced. Nihilum gets all the dragons because it's the easiest route to loot and people don't like fighting the establishment. Their competition was banned for exploiting which didn't help, but Holocaust honestly probably deserved it.

The real fun on a teams server would come at the start, when the teams fought to determine who will be the one with the horrible advantage :P

Some interesting ideas to promote competition were thrown around too, like disallowing character creation for the "winning" team and making it against the rules to trade accounts for plat.

Those who conquered the classic era find this whole enterprise futile. Where is their option?

That's much better, but I still don't understand what he was trying to say.

I guess if you find EQ futile because you've killed Naggy/Vox/Inny/CT and finished Sky, then this poll isn't for you.

EZ server is where it's at.

Teams server always struck me as incredibly unbalanced.

Plus the term "Darkies" always rubbed me the wrong way.

What if they disallowed character creation on the "winning" team? Gave incentives to play on the "losing" team, like increased xp rate? There are so many wonderful possibilities :)

Dark team was only VZ and TZ. The more balanced teams that make more sense went with the term "evil", maybe to remedy people being rubbed wrong lol.

[Faerie]

Bump! Would bluebie still play server if it was just current Red99 with teams implemented? Seems as though there won't be a new start, and all the current characters on Red will remain.

I kinda wish it would be a new server, but bluebie doesn't really deserve a new start if they never gave the original server a chance anyway :(

[Fael]

It's still in the planning phases, and it looks like they will just implement them on the current Red99 server. So join up now, and get to leveling!

[Nirgon]

Lol

Oh I see, this is an attempt to save that waste of bandwidth.

First, I have to ask because this thread is in RnF, is this for real?

Second, if they implement 2-3 teams based pvp on the current red server, I'm guessing the same non-item loot; no xp loss in pvp; tiered level to level (you know like if you're level 5 and heal the guy who is level 9, you can be killed by the level 13 rule? Yeah that dumb rule) rules still apply?

Nilbog, I hope you can sway the other part of your team to put in item loot! Else, I don't think the survivability of the new and improved Red server will be much better than it is now. Roving twinks with no fear of losing their hand-me-downs will still wreak havoc for the casuals/late starters.

see i dont mind that aspect, and i dont mind being the underdog. i played a good guy when sullon zek went live back in the day

[Rhambuk]

how will the teams be setup? like tz/vz? evils, shorts, elves, humans?

theres a thread in red server chat about that subject. my question is what is the timeline like? i'd roll a toon on red assuming my interest hasnt waned by the time it drops, i got ffxiv and tes:online on the horizon

[murcielago200]

oh ya lets do some PVP teams.... oh wait cant do teams with 3 people on the server.. sad day.

[Nirgon]

I'm quitting the teams server in advance to play on blue. It's FFA PvE instead of team based PvE.

[radditsu]

I would play a teams server. Sounds fun.

[Nuk3Afr1ca]

Need wipe. There is no way I'm logging on a PvP server as a level 1 vs a bunch of coons with a backpack full of 40 weighted axes and forest loops.

[Malice_Mizer]

Sounds like the P99 PvP community would love a massive splinter in their already paltry numbers.

[Norathorr]

Fuck Pvp
