Thidranki in NF!

[Coldbeard]

So , just been trying out thid for 30-40 min now and I must say its totally awesome got 2 bubs from killing 2 luwis and gotten about 15 g , very nice exp gains from kills . Also like the new design on bridges but ck is a bit ...big. Looking forward to much more fun in thid

What do ya other peoples think? discuss

[Xplo]

dunno playing half life 2 here :touch:

 

[Coldbeard]

was fun until that lameass bluecon hib stealtherzerg camped mb adding on everything =/

 

[Ashton]

I popped there for a couple of hours tonight and really enjoyed it.

Agree with Cold that the bridges are cool, they gave some really good fights for me solo, on my inf, and for the small groups of 3-6 albs and mids that i saw also. Had some fun chasing/being chased around the bridges towers, up ladders etc. Hope these towers dont provide too good a camp for the ''zerges'' in more prime hours tho, which i think unfortunately will be the case. And yeah imo CK is a little bigger than it needs to be.

Just 1 point that I found: Once u got a guard melee on u from CK, theres pretty much no escaping it without killing it... I sneaked inside CK through one of the holes knocked in the wall and took out a runie who was just inside. I got agro from 2 Guards and a few NPC's arrows in my back (as expected) so legged it towards the river expecting to lose them. Once out of range of the archers they give up on u, but the 2 Huscarls chased me across the river and killed me halfway back to ATK. Dunno if thats a bug or ''working as intended'' but it kinda puts a stop to any assasinations inside of CK without the backup of other players to kill the guard agro u pick up.

All in all i was impressed apart from 1 thing...

very nice exp gains from kills

Give /noxp command or somethin plzzzzzz! Already had to have one suicide session at atk

 

[Hamro]

i didnt notice any raise in xp kills. killed a person and only got 163k

killed nother and got 300k

 

[Frozensolid]

I got the chance to dust my 'old overcapped NS' off and go for some runs again had fun, those bridges are pretty cool. Though after 2 rounds and 2 kills i suicided out of thid, went back to mainland to suicide 5 times in a row there The xp u get is pretty much

 

[filberfox]

had a quick runabout in thid last night and loved every moment..
had to suicide lots thou as my exp shot up like i couldnt believe.. but great move by Goa for allowing a port back to portal keep and only 1 min ress sick...look forward to meeting up with a few old buddies for a good fight real soon.
FAO Bahli was you rooted to the top of the tower or to scared to come out and play

almost forget to mention the ability to swim underwater is also a great move and one i look forward to using

hmm , i got 1 mill of killing someone

 

[Xplo]

My top xp that I got in thid is 2 million, I was level 25 at that time.

 

[Kokelimonkelmedisin]

they removed the rp cap in thid now tho?
`

Might resub to to roll a thid char then ^^
RR5 chars in thid would be so funny ^^.

 

[Coccas]

the cap is still in but you can continue to play after that, just cant gain any more rp's afaik

 

[Job]

Actually i hate the new Thid, the rel back to keep is shite, totally takes away the satisfaction of a kill.

The new keep is way to big and the towers just block gameplay, also player always jump off the bridges when attacked.

BRING BACK OLD THID!

 

[Tallen]

Have to agree with this, you cannot defeat a zerg now, they just keep coming so thid more than ever is "whoever has more players wins" than before.

Apart from that the new layout is refreshing, must admit i got sick of the old thid layout with its horrific chokepoints.

 

[Coccas]

i like that noone cares to look at hib bridge so we can put up trebs and blow a hole in the wall

 

[Wirey]

all we can expect is now, a Invinsible None Stop coming Alb Zerg in thid.. FFS NF SCREWED THE GAME SO BAD I HAVE QUIT FOR GOOD

 

[Job]

I must admit I have always poo pooed all those 'I'm quitting posts' but this latest update is the worst ever, really fucks me off playing as a Hib, the layout is such an advantage to Mid/Alb abilities at lvl 24, Hibs are so disadvantaged ,not just numbers, but are we are now totally crushed by instas/range/huge dmg spells.

It has always been fun to play the underdogs, but now it's getting past a joke, you can feel the atmosphere of defeat, not good for the game at all.

 

[Naugi]

Well I'm playing World of Warcraft instead atm. It doesnt have Alb zergs.

nooooo! :<

 

[Kelan]

I honestly dont see why ppl are all moaning.

U get money for kills so if like me u want to stay in bg with a couple chars u can just suci and repay con with the money u made from killing ppl,if not u can use that money to buy new stuff for your char and theres ample people to kill be it alb/mid/hib. You never have to worry about missing a port and ress illness is much less than it was be4 and u can have fun with seige stuff.

Still i suppose there is no pleasing everyone.

 

[Tomb]

The new NF bgs are far better, how you can't get satisfaction from kill is beyond me, a kill in one is exactly the same as a kill in another only difference is they will be back alot sooner to get killed again, all that waiting to be ported used to really get on my tits and broke the game play up.

As for albs zerging yet another total bollocks comment since of late the worst ones to zerg in the BGs especially Thid are the Middys not to mentioned their stealth zergs, every realm zergs and since this is a game of war then get a grip since its meant to be army against army not 8v8, only reason people bloody moan oh we got zerged blah blah is because they got their arses handed to them and didn't get realm points from farming low rank groups.

In any war game or and I hate to use it in real life the biggest force usually wins, safety in numbers.

What mission u on, on World of Warcraft? Mission 9 Here

 

[Sendraks]

RvR is now more fun in every conceivable way that I can think of. There is very little about the old system that I miss.

 

[Coldbeard]

I like the die-release to border keep system they have now , more of instant action in thid which is good The only thing that worries me is that seem to never died once against solo enemies

 

[Naugi]

What mission u on, on World of Warcraft? Mission 9 Here

Its World of Warcraft open beta Im playing matey, on the Eastern timezone Test Server number 40 (Night Elf Rogue of course).

It ends tonight though so I will soon be back to annoy the Albs in Thidranki.

 

[Wirey]

Do'h!! i thought u ment Dawn of War lol stupid me

 

[ThorbjoernB]

Im sorry to correct u m8, there IS an ALB zerg in WoW. tis just called Tauren warrior + Undead Warlock = 12 y old englis... i mean Alb´s pawning us poor Gnome mages i mean.. ohh NM.. back to he old DAoC...

Aye they removed the cap so u can now effectively go leech rps in proper RVR and still port into thid once u passed the old rp cap of 350rps. Read on the patch notes (or somewhere else - i cba to look for it now) that the highest RR a char can get to at 24 is RR1L6, which i assume is a hard rp cap for that particular level. I'm sure someone will correct me if im mistaken tho
