Q: What about the instanced RvR that you´ve announced a while ago? Did you drop that idea again?

A: We didn´t drop the idea, we replaced it with the RvR quests. The reason is, that

we realised that DAoC is not an instanced RvR game.

The key of the game is to conquer keeps, sieges, relics.

Instanced 8v8 RvR would be a step away from this key. We don´t want players to fight each other in instances, when there´s a battlefield.

Instanced 8v8 fights may be nice, but that´s not what DAoC is about.

My respect for mythic has increased. No get with the program :m00:

doesn't change the fact a 8v8 _in daoc_ is by far the best gameplay ever for many people, so why blame them for seeking it, even in a game thats supposed to be about sieges and so on?

theres enough space for both types of rvr in the frontier, wheres the problem? if you rather do siege, then please stay around those areas, and we'll go somewhere else.. trying to provoke even more bitterness is kinda sad, you're not a single bit better than the people you seem to despise just for trying to look for their own fun.. infact, you're worse

Instead for instances they did "the isle of agramon" wich probably will be like OF emain. Sounds nice imo.

I play USa lamarak in my spare time ive seen the new island it is for pure 8 v 8 or what ever its fun its big and spacious the point of the new island is about the type of rvr that most of us wont wich mythic have picked up on yet there is still space for 8 v 8 in the normal frontier ( and yes it does remind me of the old frontier for all who wonder) seige is a part of the game wich can be fun if you wont to seige go ahead :) but there is always space for 8 v 8

10 plat he zergs on the new island where there are no keeps
if you stepped out of your fit of hate for 10 seconds you might realise how he contridicts himself.
They add a rvr island with no keeps at all to conquer then come out with a statement:

we realised that DAoC is not an instanced RvR game.

The key of the game is to conquer keeps, sieges, relics.

go figure, he has lost the plot in my humble opinion

There is a difference in making an area where you HAVE TO BE 8 for 8vs8 and make an island where its a POSSIBILITY. I'll expect a lot of soloers will go there too.

Even with the high lamorak population there are some really nice 8v8 fights on the island. I expect it to be loads of fun in excalibur.

And if the omg-we´re-so-uber 8v8 gank groups will stay away from bashing n00bs at the bridges while expecting to not being added on, I could even agree with you. Unfortunately, the chances aren´t exactly high.

i see... all 8v8's go for bridges coz they know it will be ubber fights? yes, that must be it!
and unfortunately (for you adding cocks) the chances are high that they wont even go near bridges, and very few does now

If you're not roleplaying when you are playing this game, then what ARE you doing? Please don't tell me you run round your neighbourhood with a sword and shield dressed in armour :eek6:


VF is spot on though, the beauty of the game is that there are possibilities for all types of play. Dunno why people (on either side of the fence) get so anal about having to prove their way is "right".

lol :D

You´re cute when you´re so furious that your english is slipping.

Well.. yes, some of them do. I didn´t say all of them do. But some, and funny ironically it´s the same bunch of guys that come here, trying to proclaim some selfmade unwritten rules of "do not add on us" and "respect our fights" and what not. Just browse the boards and you´re gonna find tons of threads, so
I guess my statement wasn´t totally out of the blue.

They deliberately go and roam obviously populated areas in order to "farm teh rp cows". We´ve been discussing this for quite a while and there´s no need to deny it and no need to spill your immature insults to "prove" your point.

As I said (and as you said), if both sides have their terrain to play on, there are jolly days of DAoC ahead. There is enough room to feed both expectations.

I think you'll find the majority of instances where people have brought this to the forums or "right now" is due to the fact that people get abusive towards adders ruining thier 8 vs 8, many of us have been stating for years thats its realm vs realm.

If a small number of people can do thier "thing", that being 8 vs 8, then fine but they should not verbally abuse others for playing the game as Mythic intended.

Mythic has stated that the whole idea of RVR is not about 8 vs 8 but realm vs realm. The people that do not want to play the game as Mythic wrote it should stfu imho.

Nobody despises the minority 8 vs 8 groups per se, they do however get pissed off when these idiots try to tell the rest of the realm how to play the game based on thier own incorrect assumptions.

Because maybe people are fed up with being verbally abused but those seeking 8 vs 8 ?

It's the attitude that's wrong there, not the play preference. I totally agree it takes a special kind of arsehole to /y f*ck off n00bs, don't add ffs!. But is it any better making a thread titled "For all you iRvR nerds"?

(wow, another comment about peoples english skills! im impressed)
my point being that people who take keeps/zerg to take keeps wont go to the island becourse there's nothing for them to gain, is there?
but i dont think the "rp cows" will stay away from the island, there's rps to get @ the island with a zerg so they willl go there. But i do belive that the dedicated rvr's who do enjoy 8v8 will be there mostly/all the time when they can.

well i agree, thats why i never yell something abusive against people that add. if someone in group this i will make myself clear i really don't like it, and apart from a few slipups by people that got quite frustrated, i think overall we're never really rude when people add. usually we pull off and leave, its part of the game to get adds at times really

but generalizing the people that seek 8v8 as elitist ***** that all yell abusive stuff at others is just as bad as the people that yell.. judge people, not groups of people
