Teams PvP

[Ipman_Wingchun]

For a new Teams Pvp server, how should the teams be divided? Why or Why not?

[BardPop]

Religion because its cool
Make this a poll.

[Biaxil]

I liked VZek rules: elves/humans/darks/midgets. Just need to be hardcoded.

[Ezalor]

i liked nilbog's idea of region-based teams

http://i41.tinypic.com/23l12ck.jpg

West side:
Erudites
Barbarians
Humans - Qeynos
Half Elves - Qeynos
Dark Elves
Ogres

East side:
High Elves
Gnomes
Dwarves
Trolls
Wood Elves
Half Elves - Kelethin
Iksar

Freeport - Point of contention. Humans spawning here can ally to either side.(?)

Just curious how this would play out.

[Agatha]

we should have holocaust on one side, and an entirely other server for people to pvp on.

[Stasis01]

Teams is the shit hope they do the merging Red99 thing idea.

[Nirgon]

You'd like that wouldn't you u little worm

[pharmakos]

nilbog's east coast vs. west coast teams idea is pretty neat.

I was going to vote for three teams but I wasn't sure P99 would have the numbers for this to do much. Voted 2 team east vs west thing, but would enjoy 3 team

[Sirken]

3 teams, racial hardcoded.

add a gnome/highelf enchanter Torpor
allow gnome Shadowknights
allow darkelf Bards

bang, done

[pharmakos]

enchanter torpor? way too OP.

[Ezalor]

nilbog's regional teams idea fixes all the problems with team imbalance a lot better than making enchanters have torpor and shit

[Wrench]

3 teams, racial hardcoded.

i like this idea much better than east west thing

racial teams makes it fun to identify teams by sight, or illusions fucking with your ability to identify teams by sight

would be awesome if someone could find a good way to limit 1 account per person and then one team per account, but not sure its possible

[Stasis01]

Never been a fan of FFA, teams would be a blast - you'd find a lot more community among your team mates knowing any work you put into them is hardcoded as an ally.

There might be some bullshit among the winning team over splitting mobs and shit though.

[Nadir]

Would like to see a DAoC style city siege system. Would be really cool to have some means of having guard faction through this as well. Had some thoughts about this a year ago or so. Would be a coding nightmare but conceptually fun to think about.

[Nadir]

Three teams way too hard for balance per my experience on sullon. Two teams may be even more lopsided however.

[Larken]

As an old Sullon Zek player I can say it was the most fun I ever had in EQ. 3 team ruleset for the win!

[Sirken]

you guys might not realize this, but R99 has pretty much always been a 2 team server. Team_Zerg vs Team_OtherGuys

just plug n play guild names as needed

[Telron]

would be awesome if someone could find a good way to limit 1 account per person and then one team per account, but not sure its possible

Limit teams based on IP like they do with box rules? Really x teaming doesn't hurt as long as you cant box x team. They are already pretty decent about stopping boxers. I don't see it being a problem that the devs should invest time to solve.

[Demote]

Here is a better idea wipe R99 instead of releasing velious and starting from scratch and release expansions based on original time lines. this forces everyone back to 0. no more Bis chars and bullshit. yes there will probably be uneven numbers still but at any rate everyone will be on equal ground as for gear and lvls.

This guy read my mind!

Will never happen. Confirmed by Rogaen himself on the velious release stream.

[Quiet]

Would love a sullon zek recreation. No balance, no rules, all out war. However, there is not enough population to support that, its far to RED for anyone to join up and stay long term and so you'd only get assholes, griefs and gankers

[Hitmonlee]

Wipe it clean or Teams, it's the only answer.

remove npc assist add exp loss on death and increase the level range to 8

[crill]

I dont like the idea how enchanters with torpur or DE bard even. I would like it to be like classic and maybe if you turn in tome of discord you get KOS to all, but can still group with others.

[chrystianvz]

I'd love to be a racist elf again, but teams would kill PvP even more here.

[Kastro]

3 teams, racial hardcoded.

add a gnome/highelf enchanter Torpor
allow gnome Shadowknights
allow darkelf Bards

bang, done

FV loot rules, 1 bagged item is loot able (epic quest items remain no drop if already ) so wear your best.. it's no droppable.. up drop rate + Sim repops...

2 Hard coded teams with cities, both can have all classes.. humans can be on either..

And 1 bandit Ffa team that is kos to all outside guild.

So if the team you started with is unbearable or want to join friends.. go bandit... just KOS in all but maybe 2 cities and maybe an outpost with bank...

With working item loot like this ( as in everything is dropppable for the most part unless wearing at the moment ), the zerg team will be a cash crop to be farmed my skilled crews ...

[wormed]

2 teams is fine, which would make nilbog's idea work. However, I'd rather have 3 teams. The problem being the population.

With that said, 2 teams probably just makes more sense due to population.

[Farzo]

Nilborgs idea is legit. Just make frewport humans exiles like the exiles in eq2....with the choice to go either way.

[Slowride]

Pras that.. all this talk about teams is getting me pumped.

Yes everyone would nirgon

[aGenda]

I may have missed this but is a team pvp server something that has a possibility of happening or is this just random discussion?

One of the main issues we saw on sullon zek (besides evil team being overpopulated) is the evil team always gets kunark to themselves, which gives them a huge head start advantage for free leveling while neutral/good teams fight over crushbone/unrest/mistmoore. Any way to mitigate that?

Two teams east v west
Nilbog's said it best..

On my phone sorry for typos

[wormed]

Dammit. Sirken being in this thread is just tickling our taints. Teams wouldn't even be a thought until Velious is well established, I imagine just like that Recycle server idea.

On live 3 sides went like 80% evil. [I think]

[Colgate]

enchanter with torpor would be so laughably stupid and broken

[username17]

I'm a carebear who doesn't play on red because I don't like FFA PvP. But I would play teams. I voted 2 teams.
I'm sure my vote here counts for a LOT! /sarcasm

WTF where is step 4?

[fred schnarf]

there will never be a teams server, so another 20 page thread is pointless

also big ups to agatha for nirgon gif, shit was gud

You should never deal in absolutes :)

[Nirgon]

So the "team evil" box isn't coming out soon?

Pras Discord, hope they do that

WTF where is step 4?

This is the level of genius we are dealing with here

[Ezalor]

if we're following the live timeline the next thing to come out after velious was a discord server, then project M

[Mudslinger]

Hey Agatha you should think a little harder before you post .......... this post alone should be enough to completely bar you from ever being considered for guide or gm .........

Add the other couple hundred posts you have made that show a similar bias and why would you even ask to be considered ... oh wait your a troll

I would love a teams server. I don't play on red for the attitudes of some players and would also like to see multiple teams such as the 3 evil/neutral/good. There may be balance issues with that however but that's part of the fun. Maybe the term 'pras' will have no place there, but we can dream.

[Pumped]

there will never be a teams server and no matter how many threads u make you are still stupid

Rep Yo City ruleset. What an amateur thread.

If you aren't doing a lore-based PK server, the Red vs Blue would be pretty fun, otherwise I would have to go faction. My vote, RvB as it would be more interesting, and make for some interesting alliances.

[Madbad]

I thought we already had a teams server.

we have our own organized teams on red right now, empire is good, good guys are scumsucking cheaters that warp good hearted people to do thier bidding.

starting to think the same thing— definitely not 'good' guys.

Any race/class combo. Once you create a character, you hand team A or team B tome to guildmaster. Team A has red names and Team B has blue names.
Cant heal or buff outside your team and you cant use dispells, debuffs or dmg on your own team.
