Overall - Bored of it.

Hard to get fg-fg fights (to the point where you dont even try for the rest of the evening after meeting 2-3fg repeatedly). Lot of easy zerg farming rps though from/to all sides so pros and cons. Much like portsmouth docks at pub closing time really :)

last week IRVR in HW mids and hibs got lots of single fg fights without adding , It works if you dont go villa.

Really boring, with a bigger rvr population will be much better to find rvr in all places without insta rvr. So hope they cluster soon.

Creating this iRvR shit ( a zergers wet dream ) is like giving a pyromaniac matches.

Irvr is bad

Before nf, you had mainly 3 sides to rvr;

Odins was mainly stealthwars or less than fg rvr
Hadrians Wall was for the defenders
Emain was for rp farmers

When nf came out, gone was the rp farming and fg vs fg rvr, unless you were bridge camping etc

Stealthwars happenedon Bryjana or Oriens Bridge and Defenders used to defend everywhere

Irvr is now trying to squeeze all 3 of these playstyles and its killing the server.

The defenders have nothing to defend, stealthwars get added on and fg vs fg fights are happening, but with adding going on

Another thing thats crap is that noones bothered about relics now. Relic raids used to be highlight of my week(200 people in of \o/), whilst now noone can be bother as

a; not enough rp meights!!111
b; cluster is inc, why bother? attitude

My 2 cents

Anyway, im off to bed

Is that because your char got stripped and you don't have any items?





Low blow I know, but teaches you for IRC faggery!

It's kinda nice being able to port to action instead of the boring boat ride. However it's a drawback for both soloers/duoers/full groups as the small grps get rolled over by the big groups and the big groups rolled over by zergs.

Everyone seems to ( like before irvr came out strong ) go to Brynja/bled area when irvr is down.
We saw it happen the short time irvr was 'down' the other day.


To sum it up:

-No irvr means that most people will go to Brynja - meaning albs and hibs needs a boat ride.
Mids will keep by the bridge, since thats where the hibs and albs come for action.
-Irvr means that the realm 'hosting' it will keep at the bridge,
'cause the bridge is the center of all attention. No realm needs to take a boat ride.


I came to wonder what would happen if all realms had a keep in different parts of one frontier
-perhaps that would encourage roaming?


Imho

I think it's nice, but I can see why people with only one or a few chars don't like it. I think it's cool because I can pick the char most appropriate for the situation, and it's always fun to get some starting ra's on a newly toa'ed lowbie:) Which isn't really easy when there is no irvr. Or at least it takes a lot more commitment, something which I'm not really up to. I'm also glad it changes though, that we don't have irvr ALL the time, and at the same place all the time. Variation is key.

Tis fun when you stay away from the zerg points. Like yesterday why on earth go to the dc bridge when you know it is either:

1. Sorc Sorc Sorc caba Sorc Firewizz Firewizz heretic sorc heretic firewiz scout
2. Animist animist eld eld vamp ranger vamp eld eld animist

You know emain is bigger then that area

If you're looking for some quick action it's good. If you're solo and want quick access to an area with a lot of other soloers/duo'ers/fgs it's good. If your fg wants quick access to an area crawling with other fgs/soloers/duoers etc it's good.

If you're looking for fair fights, no adders, fg vs fg, solo vs solo it's the worst ever. When running around in a fg trying to find other fgs to find, most groups you find are either already fighting another group, being zerged or zergin themselves. Lots of stealthers zerg as well, hitting on soloers that either want fair fights or just wanna add on the bigger zergs.

Basically what this is, is 1 small area with a lot of people roaming the same place, where you're bound to be added on, or add yourself if you don't want to pass group after group after group that alread engaged in combat.

I don't even remember myself what it was like before this rvr situation...

IRvR is the best thing possible in NF.

Boats is very boring and makes a hell of a lot ppl not comming to RvR which means less action and running around for 15 min or more without seeing a single enemy ain't my idea of a good time.

I prefer hadrian's over emain tho :>

So are you saying you still think I was a brynja camper, or are you over that already?
