While the new RA's have alot of AoE effects/give a bigger advantage, seriously while some RvR groups are good, they stand no chance against a zerg (you assume people just stand there and do nothing?) they don't now, they will not in NF.

But by all means try ^^ Might ding me rr6 if you convince mael and BO they can kill a 5fg keeptake force with 1fg

the keyword there is keeptake, when a force like that is on a keep half of them tend to be at least semi afk on doors, and the rest concentrating on a keep
a force on a keep is much easier to kill than when its in open field

also, bof3 boad3 am3 and that healer heal pool thing could be a fun combo :d

the difference between OF and NF is that it doesnt take most random hibbies 5 minutes before they even see a fight.

Thats the most frustrating and why people dont rvr at all in hib, because when it takes you 10 mins to form the group 5 mins to run to emain 1 second to die to the high rr gimps basically it takes the fun out of rvring.

In Frontiers it takes you 10 mins to form a group if that 1 min to port make some rps die have fun and can be out in the battle in another minutes time.

Thats the difference randoms dont get anoyed because its taken them 15 minutes to actually get into fight.

The problem with prydwen is if all the hibs that have deparated dont return then your looking at a realm with just over 150 active people. and frankly thats going to mean that its going over to a 2 realm server.

GOA need to start selling the game soon and i mean NOW!

All hibs that have the patience to go emain again and again and again on Prydwen (any server really) in Old Frontiers really deserves credit just for their patience - you guys really deserve the portal system that comes with New Frontiers. :D :cheers:

the more mids in toa the better tbh
emain is already zerged by mids most nights, which doesn't encourage hibs to come out, and makes albs zerg back

More due to real life than any game related stuff I've not been around much (if at all) over the last month or so. Not even tried the NF beta yet.

Still looking forward to the patch though, even if my gameplaying time has unexpectedly dropped through the floor for the moment.

Funny to hear peeps saying "stay away from keeps" type things, thats what I'm looking forward to the most as I love sieges.

The keep takes are superb, I will be headed towards all keep defence/raid rather than heading away. 8v8 RvR always bored me pretty fast anyway, 3-way zergs can be a nightmare sure but mainly because the game engine handles them so badly. They can still be alot of fun though and anything that gives this game back to the masses is a good thing :)

Zergs get farmed all the time, because they're 90% afk or busy cyboring. Nothing will change that in NF ;)

The only thing to change in NF is the frontier, groups will be the same and everyone plays the same. Keep-takes are popular for 1-2months, then everyone gets bored = no more keep takes. No one runs in small groups because they get farmed by gank squads.. RvR is dead again :p

Bringing in loads of people to rvr is only a short-term solution. To make RvR popular for the long-term, everyone needs to be playing on the same level. The "foodchain"(Ganksquads > random group > zergers in epic) has to go and the playing field levelled. While a foodchain exists, rvr will suck for the majority of people and rvr is left to a minority of 5% of the server population.


sounds like rl :/ god i hope bush dont get re-elected !

He will :( Kerry is such a weak alternative for the narrow minded bible bashers that elected Bush last time.
