I know this is gonna have lots of flames but im just sharing my point of view

Regarding 'Soloers' Who actually thrive on 1 v 1 fights you get adds but thats natural but for FG's to Steam roll and go out of there way to actually kill you is absolutely stupid...

So this is for all you people who group with 3+ people and mainly FG people, why dont you try soloing for 1 week to see how the solo game works and then and only then you will see how frustrating it is to actually solo. When i see a post on FH regarding soloers you always get people who group always put a bad reply like 'Its REALM V REALM FFS' which is true yes, but we all play a game we enjoy.

So all im saying is 'TRY SOLO' because its a totally different ball game otherwise dont comment or flame people who post about adds/fg adds etc...

Its a case that cant be fixed ;d

People play the way they like, For example you may really enjoy a 1v1 fight but for the people who roleplay its probablys along the lines of...

"We are a team of eight people and we find one scared enemy who is running, We chase him to fear him, toy with him, play with him then kill him - After all he is the enemy"

 

[Nate]

i guess it works the other way too though amp, you could try 8v8 and see how annoying it is when the soloer you left a few minutes ago decides to add on your fight later on...try it for a week and see how you think about some "soloers". i tend to leave soloers when in a fg and leave 8v8's when solo...im sure a lot of people play it differently and thats there opinion etc.

Hey, i know. Let's ask a certain high rr heretic.
He was posting here about how he was going to solo and stuff. Not going to use the buff shear proc or what not, because that wouldn't be fair.
Next time i see him, he's adding on me and a hib with his sorc and whiz mates and they wont stop chasing me untill i'm out of clip range.
Never seen him solo either so i guess it wasn't that fun.

They may try it a few times, find out how frustrating it is and then go back to grouping and gank everyone they see. That's what everyone else was doing to them!

I was told I am not supposed to solo

if all was good would game be great?

 

[Gibs]

this cluster is worse than glast and usa classic now for adding and rolling soloers

And you always do as your told ? :touch:

Everyone is entitled to having any playstyle, its stupid to make it sound like the "for the realm" people are doing something wrong.

Good 1v1 or fg v fg gives u better adrenaline rush than zerging ever will, but not everyone finds it worth the shit u have to put up with. xD

Only the hypocrits should be flamed to hell and back.

yeah exactly,i think what it comes down to in the end is daoc isn't half the game it was back before ToA and people are trying to scrape what fun there is left in the bottom of the barrel.

some peoples barrels just have different contents

 

[Brackus]

You are aware most solo people add on fg / zerg fights?

 

[censi]

i actually think as time goes by less and less people add.

there will always be a section of the gamers that do it though and its usually always that players that sux and its usually casters (or both in a lot of cases)

lots of funny shit going on still though.

like I attack a full group on ranger and get like darkeen some random SM adding on me, thats fucking cold man regardless of what anyone says, peeps that add on someone trying to kill a target in a full group (outside of that group) in my book is the lowest of the low. Or I get certain peeps coming on IRC and calling me a hacking **** because I escaped their FG add with speed boost and phase shift (sos). that was a good one.

 

[Coldbeard]

You are aware most solo people add on fg / zerg fights?

Ah, the usual lie.

I would'nt say most soloers do it, because 1) There is a better chance of that grp leaving you alone if you don't add. 2) You are most likely going to die if you add. 3) You don't add on fights. Of course there is those who do it but they aren't really soloers, just zergers and adders.

 

[illu]

I look at it as part and parcel of the game. Most FG's are very kind and leave most people to finish their fights and then kill the survivor which is fair enough.
But, sometimes that can also be annoying because you'll have some stealthers "queuing" up in the area to try and kill the winner (when he is back at full health so that the fights is good and the RP are normal), but as the survivor gets killed while they are on 10% health for 100RPs or so by the steamrolling group, it's one less fight to be had in that area.
But there we are. Nothing wrong with doing it. Different play styles, and people might want to kill the person you are fighting because they added on them earlier etc., there may be some history there.

I fully expect to be added on or steamrolled, and you either go down fighting, or vanish is your friend :> And if that buggers up a few /y /y /y telling the people what you think of them always makes you feel better :>

/y = you little bugger
/y /y = grrrr that was pretty poor/lame play
/y /y /y = F%^$ing Motherf%96%ng C*5^ing Tw$ts

Oli - Illu

 

[Fahdlan]

Arauddry is right tbh.

 

[Fuaip]

Remove RP's from the game and see how many would add then without getting anything for it.

 

[Kagato]

Sadly more then you might think.

 

[Razemouze]

I solo almost everytime i log my warden. I dont add and i like 1on1's (yes, we've all added a few times). I was on my warden for 3+ hours and went to alb and mid mostly. Think i got 3800k during these 3 hours and had 3 1on1's maybe. Thats frustrating - So i logged.

I guess you cant really change the way ppl like to play the game...and i dont blame them but it sure aint funneh getting zerged, steamrolled etc, over and over again.

Just my point of view!

Twas me I'll admit I actually had that frapsed and later realised my mistake. There was a fight on the bridge (hence why I was frapsing) and then I saw you. I didn't look at the name and just thought you were a member of the group we had just finished off so started to chase. As you ran towards the water I looked down and saw it was you and pulled off.

Sorry As for my soloing thing, my template was absolutely crap and annoyingly for me, I'm the kind of perfectionist who plays the game to have fair fights but I absolutely hate loosing by a little margin purely because my template wasn't good enough. I was looking for a black water bracer to finish it for a long time but couldn't find one. Then I finished my 12 hour nights job and had more free time so I decided to scrap the idea and go back to FG fighting because the only black water bracer on the market was 50plat and I was skint (would not pay that when one sold the previous week for 17plat).

I know it all sounds like an excuse and I would never claim to be a saint but that was a genuine mistake.

As for soloing, the little that I did I enjoyed but I hardly did it at all because of the above reason. The whole leaving soloers issue I often leave upto the group (I'm often in pugs and although I sometimes ask people not to add, theres nothing I can do about it). If there is a 1 vs 1 fight I'll leave it. If there is a caster running at us alone, I'll happily kill it because they're the bane of the solo world. As for other soloers, I've left plenty I've seen alone and strive to let soloers be.

3800k aint that bad really..... 3.8mil rp

 

[Deadweight89]

Last wednesday we were running NFD tank group around HW, i cant even remember the amount of fights we got into where our healers were complaining about being petted by various hunters along the coast.
Its swings and roundabouts because there is a high chance of that solo'er you just left, turning around and engaging you ruining your fg vs fg fight.
If you hang around a bridge and get popped by a fg, expect to be killed, pure and simple, same with casters around the usual choke points.
Random solo tanks get left alone because fair play to them they are living the dream and they get a barrage of hugs unleashed on them, however your sorcs, warlocks and BD's are all going to get tooled over every time.
There is a flip side to this for the "try solo" arguement and thats "try an organised FG vs FG" setup and see what its like from the other side.
I've solo'd before on my animist(!) and had no ends of problems with being run over by fg's, but then again such an OP class like animist needs ganking on sight!!

Hehe, i meany 3800 realmpoints ofc

I know this is gonna have lots of flames but im just sharing my point of view

Regarding 'Soloers' Who actually thrive on 1 v 1 fights you get adds but thats natural but for FG's to Steam roll and go out of there way to actually kill you is absolutely stupid...

So this is for all you people who group with 3+ people and mainly FG people, why dont you try soloing for 1 week to see how the solo game works and then and only then you will see how frustrating it is to actually solo. When i see a post on FH regarding soloers you always get people who group always put a bad reply like 'Its REALM V REALM FFS' which is true yes, but we all play a game we enjoy.

So all im saying is 'TRY SOLO' because its a totally different ball game otherwise dont comment or flame people who post about adds/fg adds etc...

Amphrax/Arauddry

I usally spare people who I know wont add on my 8vs8 fights and if I for exampel see someone just running by while fighting and not adding then I wont kill him when I see him later on ofc...

 

[Raven]

You are aware most solo people add on fg / zerg fights?

you are aware most FGs zerg and add on solo fights?

 

[Castus]

you are aware most FGs zerg and add on solo fights?

There is no solo game, mythic designed it to be mass battles , 100+ each side, withthe addition of a third realm to make it more ballanced
and interesting..

You get jumped by someone 4 - 5 RR's above you and the epeen crowd just stand there, and /kiss /hug afterwards. I would rather be flattened by a FGH / FGM and have more respect for them than some of my so called fellow albions.
