"DON'T ADD!!!"

[Behmoth]

What if your realm mates don't want your "help"? that would in no way stop people like yourself just jumping in and taking as much rp's as you can anyway

how do i know if they need my help or not? i will help defend my realm you see i'm not bothered by realm reanks ect ect ect i have been playing 2 years and and think i have just got to rr4 (yeah if you not bothered how do u know cos i seen it on my screen thats how) its more important toplay the game how its intended. you defend your realm by what ever means possible i see a soloer i kill them with a grp; i see a grey i will kill the enemy (had it done to me i never complained cos i know i'm in rvr area)

If we are talking about roleplaying, this game was set in the days when knights were chivalrous etc, where duels were respected tactics and training and equipment made a huge difference. Not just who had the biggest army.

"Lets all roleplay more! "

.

You stole my line

 

[Kalba]

Roleplaying is fun but it´s tiring, I mean that you all the time have to write like you´d be some real char etc. Ít´s fun for some time but then you get bored and just say" cba ffs let´s go pwn"

 

[Morchaoron]

stop zerging then...
add = zerg

adding is joining a battle in progress, zerging is a tactic in which you intentionally bring superior numbers to achieve victory by overwhelming your opponents

when i meet my enemy i fight them, no matter what their numbers are or no matter who is fighting them, i dont rely on superior numbers to beat them, no, i run with 1fg and if my enemies are already in combat... well... bad luck for them because what do you want me to do? just stand there and watch the fight??

these are my rules:
player limit to move with = 8
attack enemies if # greater then 0 = yes
prefered # of enemies = 8
ignore enemies if # not 8 = no

i spend my time to play not to spectate a fucking virtual battle, but if you want to do that then be my guest...

'cos God knows it's very honourable and hard it is to layeth the smack down on epic wearing rr2's.

Then we all get to synchronise our victory cheers and laugh over ventrillo...

 

[stighelmer]

lol, the 5fg+ zerging is easiely done mostly by albs.

I have been steamrolled by 5fg+ hibs and mids soooo many times lately (pre ToA ofc ) while out in a fg.

I am not saying people are not allowed to zerg - just saying all realms do it. To say Albs do it alot more than the other realms, atleast as of late, is pure BS.

ah ffs since when was this a roleplaying game?

and for the "woha yeah yeah add roxxorr and im gonnaeh adduh on teh all fightors i can mwhahaha"-ppl, you know that good rvr grps can make life a hell for you even if they cant kill you personally?

Actually, a group that insists on its right to just do 1fg vs 1fg fights isn't a good REALM vs REALM group. They're a Counter-Strike team that's just a bit confused about what game they're playing.

So do i get this correct: You are several times asked NOT to add, yet you keep on adding. To be honest you only look like something who is bit too rp horny and can't get them unless you add to sure fight

The common courtery is to ask "need help?". Sure, there is nothing in CoC, but you do figure that most people enjoy balanced fg vs fg because it brings out skill? And you are taking that fun out from them.

I know good rvr groups that add, and tbh, I have yet to come across any group that hasn't added. This game has survived 2 years of adding and I don't see why suddenly it's a bad thing. Sometimes you're lucky enough to have a fight where it's just 1v1 , that's sweet, so what if the next 50 times people add.

I don't think I don't think I roxxor, and I do add

And you do what, "defend your realm" by surely killing that group. How? So "no more innocent lives is lost because alive they could slaughter alot of our realmies!" (Good roleplaying!).. or that they won't take a keep? (Chance that they are going for keeptake being 5% or so).

zzzZzzZZZ

 

[Gordonax]

No. I play the game as it is, without trying to pretend it's an 8vs8 game.

Realm. Versus. Realm.

Not 8 Vs 8.

How difficult is it to understand this simple concept?

 

[Duze]

You cant please everybody all of the time so why even try? Somebody will always whine about how or why you did something.
I'm positive everybody in DAoC did something at one time at least to upset somebody else's game - zerged, added in a fight, ganked a grey, was part of a group that killed a soler, even spammed /rude or /laugh at somebody that gets offended easily by such things.
As long as I pay my subs every month, for the few hours a day I get to actually play, I'll play the game how I want to play it, not how somebody else tells me THEY think I should play it. And it works both ways, if somebody does something that frustrates me, or spoils my game then tough, thats how they wanted to play it and as I don't pay their subs I have no right to tell them how to play the game.
Yes, ofc, there are exceptions - adding in 1v1 fights is kinda gay but in bigger fights, how many of u honestly stand there and count up the number of albs/mids/hibs to make sure the numbers are even before you dive in?

 

[Kalba]

Realm. Versus. Realm.

many people like to have fair fights with equal numbers, you know, challenge?

Realm versus Realm thinking is way out of date, I dont see anyone think so anymore

LOL you are so gonna enjoy frontiers...

 

[Gordonax]

You can see what people think?

 

[Nicky Nook]

Never read the whole thread but totaly agree with Ensceptificamuralya ...

 

[Driwen]

Realm versus Realm thinking is way out of date, I dont see anyone think so anymore

people might like challenge, but still think WR and FoM still think in RvR terms and thats just 2 big guilds I can name without thinking, they might not add on their realmmates as they dont want it. Anyway there are enough people who dont mind zerg vs zerg and keep fights, which are both maybe not really challenging, but nevertheless fun.
So RvR isnt out of date, thinking everyone just wants fg vs fg is pressing the opinion of the few on the many imo.

"So RvR isnt out of date, thinking everyone just wants fg vs fg is pressing the opinion of the few on the many imo."

True.

/agree.

 

[Boni]

The whole 'dont add' thing annoys the hell out of me at times. If you want to play with 'not adding' then fine, and if im in a grp that doesnt want to add then I wouldnt. But shouting at grps that do add just causes grief, it sickens me to see a GG rr6+ shout 'dont add ffs you idiot' at some rr2 hero come to 'help' you ...

 

[Yaemon]

The funny thing is that the people who make these "dont add" comments often add themselves. When I die in rvr it usually takes 1 or 2 seconds until i get the "where" pm and almost everytime its a person in a so called 1337 gankgroup sending this message.

 

[Divinia]

Kill All, Spare None..

But it can be damn annoying/laughable when 2fg fellow hibs sprint into a fight of "ours" to kill those last two enemies

 

[Kalba]

Realm versus Realm thinking is way out of date, I dont see anyone think so anymore

And for those who did not understand, this meant that very rarely people think they are defending the realm, eh? (which *was* the original idea)

What it comes to adding... There´s people that like to give enemies a chance, there´s those that want rps, and there´s a unnamable 3rd group

Random groups adding are for rps, some ppl go berserk even if they see a chance of gaining rps. :touch:

 

[Belomar]

And some go berserk if they see another same-realm group inside clip range when they are fighting, and go to even greater extremes should said group add on their fight. The culprits should really be warned -- excessive obscenities and other foul speech can well result in action being taken by GOA, so my advice is for those being abused to take a screenshot and RightNow it.

Hi duact, still bored of daoc?

yes. im waiting for thanes to be fotm then i might start again

one of the best discripssions i heard its HELP. be thankfull you wouldn't mind seeing fg of hibs adding if you was going down faster than bill clintons secretary

or should we not even rezz you as this would meanus noobs getting rp's or do u just want l33t rezzers also?

 

[gwal]

Anyone else getting tired of the whole "don't add!!!" stuff? I think it's time people realised this is RvR not 1fg vs 1fg. Plus with the new map/radar expansion in Frontiers it's going to get even worse for those who don't like people adding on 'their' fights.

Over the last 3 days I have had msgs from alot of people/guilds, but 1 person in particular, Herberts, these msgs have consisted of

"don't add"
"fo"
"go play alb"

and my favorite, after me dying "herbets: where?"

not to mention the text in /say along the lines of

"don't add"
"did we call 1-800-ADDPLZ?"

Some of them rather funny, i agree. Just get over the fact this is an MMORPG and not your own little game where you rule the roost and you can tell people how to play, I think I'm correct when I say everyone pays the subscription each month and can play how they like, as long as they aren't breaking to CoC... And as far as i know adding on fights as some people put it, isn't anywhere in the CoC.

The way this game is atm you'd think some people own the server, especially the way they think they can tell people how to play the game... Time to wake up and smell the coffee though, its RvR not 1fg vs 1fg.

some of us actually enjoy fg vs fg... in there can lie challenges and so fun fights, which u cant get when zerging the crap out of anything. how about U wake up and realise that some ppl play the game to have fun and challenges, not to run around like headless chickens and scrape in every single rp they can, saying "yay that was uber play, we rly played well with our 3fg vs that fg of overpowered fotm savages"

as for not telling other how to play the game.. agree, unless u own the game u cant control what ppl can and cant.. but no1 is forcing u to listen, u could just say FO back to em u know, but I guess ur not rly the type of guy who wants to do such stuff... except for one little thing ofc - ur little FH whine where u do what u say others cant, u tell ppl how to play the game
