Tonights big fight at amgE

[willowywicca]

Yes fun to se some high rr hibs camping a room whit 4 other fgs ZzZ
+ to Bodyroots group that SoS´d true amg and killed mids in tactical attacksthink they got the hibs to Gues alot of ppl liked it so im happy for those who did liked it me on the other hand hated it

Yeah we got lots of both of em, about 45k rps total from last night so after a few intial hiccups, we got some very good killing going with some nice hit and run tactics

I imagine it musta been boring as hell for melee types, but for ranged casters like our group, it was lotsa fun

 

[remi]

was le boring.

 

[Tareregion]

annoying innit, when there too many f8 targets you can instakill

 

[Dook]

It made a change having 3 Zergs of equal size (ish) and was a unique situation being able to hold AMG. Must say I enjoyed it for a while although the lag wasn't ideal (fear for those with lesser spec'ed PC's). It does get boring fast though, in fact was bored of it by the time it was over. Did I like it? Yes. Would I like it if it was like that every night? No.

It seems at times the anti-FG people are more sour and venomous than the 'l33t FG GG kiddys' (wow, managed to sterotype and generalise most people there) - fact is if this RvR was so popular why are Hibs only out in force like this once in a blue moon? Why don't the Hibs that are so anti-FG RvR do this more often if they like it so much? That's what puzzles me, guess they just like to take pot shots at those that bother to get out there in any shape or form, far easier and less chance of dissapointment.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

haha, spot on. Was thinking in those lines aswell.

I didnt really enjoy the pointless zerging since it was kinda impossible to play, lagged to hell and back there sadly We went Odins and ran over a FG mids and realized whole prydwen kinda was at amgE.

I cant see the fun in albs not beeing able to even pass their own MG but if thats what turns people on.. /shrugs, why dont zerglovers go play excal if they like it so much? Plenty of that going on there so they dont have to whine about FG's anymore. I dont get it.

Actually it was quite easy to get past amg, our group made it past twice without SoS, and once we just brute-forced through with SoS.

We didn't try a fourth time since we never died after our third time through

You can easily change a few words and get.........

"why dont Fglovers go play Camlann if they like it so much? Plenty of that going on there so they dont have to whine about Zerg's anymore. I dont get it"

As it's been said many many times before,there's more than room enough for both types of play.... small scale and large scale warfare.

Why should only one type of player have the monopoly on all the fun ?

 

[Edlina]

nice to see all de leet gg whinging for a change..... why?.... easy.. if hibs zerg who they gonna get there 20k + rps from every nite.... so it dont suit them if hib employs these tactics (that goes for hib leet gg's too), tis funny i think

Actually I stood afk in room for, how long were we there - pupp? Wou? usp? - too long anyway, I didn't rly notice the time cos was reading forums, was absolutely nothing to do as a bard except play end song look at the floor and read forums while leeching rps off the treb.

Yay, I got 15k or smth afk in the room for an hour or so, but it was goddamned boring. Surprising as it may come to you a lot of the "leet ggs" don't care about making rps - to make 15k an hour is just as good as primetime rvr at its best - but it was still goddamned boring, and even more laggy.

You're missing the point mate. They didn't want to get past their MG. At a time when RvR for most people is port/buff/run/INC/mezz/[insert savage train or bodyguarded chanter here]/release, people were just enjoying seeing enemy players they could have a go at, and even if they died, they didn't have to release and wait 15 minutes just for another 5 seconds of fighting. As Fadeh says, many people just enjoy the chance to fight, and they're not remotely interested in coming to FH afterwards to tell everyone how many RPs they got.

why dont zerglovers go play excal if they like it so much? Plenty of that going on there so they dont have to whine about FG's anymore. I dont get it.

If you know there's a big zerg at amgE, with lots of people clearly choosing to be there, and you don't like it, then perhaps the question should be : why don't those who don't like it actually try one of the other 8 RvR zones in Midgard or Albion, where they can run wild and free and fight their equivalent equally balanced groups from other realms without the hindrance of any zergs ? It's ok, by the way, we all know the answer to this already.

Everyone who was there last night chose to be there. There are plenty other places to go, and the various RvR guilds are in contact with each other on IRC, so can arrange to go have their fgvfg fights in other places. If they chose not to do that, and instead hung around Emain despite knowing what was going on, then coming here afterwards and complaining is a bit daft.

 

[nuky]

stuff

/applaud tbh

 

[Ilum]

People play the game however it pleases them

That's y me and Etha went off and in from room, down and up from mgs and actually killed some. Grab the fun where u can find it imo ^^

 

[Maeloch]

Mebbe, I'm wrong as I missed a chunk of this cos of logging for a bit...

One of the ironies is that most of the zergers afaik where gank grp peeps anyhow. Whenever i /who'd emain, was about 40 and 55 hibs. Apart from a few HDS didn't see the randoms represented much at all tbh....2fg or so max?

Personally, I had some fun hanging about flashing some mentalist stocking at the zerging mids and managed to pull a few out. Not really my cup of tea, but gank grps can zerg and camp mg's if they enjoy that sort of thing, I wont stop them

Seriously, tho' just cos the playstyle in emain changes for a night don't understand the whine. Guess some peeps just too used to having the game going their own way....

Mael, 50th ment.

 

[Sycho]

annoying innit, when there too many f8 targets you can instakill

Your group is very tough now :E but we try our best, not bad though since some are new to guild or havent rvred much at the moment.

We had a savage trying to hit a bodyguarded sorc for 30s xDDD

Look forward to some more nice fights in emain, shame mids/albs can easily outnumber the hibs but you guys can put up best fights of all realms with the way your ML's work.

All i can say is fucking ouch from hib casters when grappled

well, prydwen has always been the less zergy server tbh with our bigbro excal with heavy zerging going on. And I explained the reason why I really didnt enjoy the zerg, I lagged to heeeeell!!!! if I had normal fps then its fine really, when we first charged mids and killed a bunch I froze and I mean FROZE for seconds (had a slideshow with 1 frame per 5secs there), had absolutely no idea what was going on at all, I kinda dont like that for reasons that should be obvious. Some sort of zerging is fine really, but last night was just completely silly. Each to their own ofc, but then the FGhaters should shut up aswell tbh and stop whining over people that enjoy playing DAoC in another way than zerging.

Dunno why but whenever i see you maeloch it puts a smile on my face with your funny pets, usually a big badger come emain more often!

allright, thats an argument I at least can understand I dont see the fun in it but I guess you have a point.

If you know there's a big zerg at amgE, with lots of people clearly choosing to be there, and you don't like it, then perhaps the question should be : why don't those who don't like it actually try one of the other 8 RvR zones in Midgard or Albion, where they can run wild and free and fight their equivalent equally balanced groups from other realms without the hindrance of any zergs ?

I would never ever be part of a preorganized fight vs a grp from another realm, thats crossrealming imo. And to be honest, my grp kinda travel odins aswell when we are bored with emain and before TOA we was active in all 3 frontiers and so did the zergs, I remember the GoP/AoD/Etczergs in HW and Odins as does many others aswell I hope. Also, slight zerging is fine with me mate, its these crazyass zergs that render the game unplayable that I really dislike. Also, I already said we went odins and checked it out after we charged the albs solo and died horrible deaths We met one midgrp in the entire time we was there and realized, darn, prydwen kinda is at amgE. What are we supposed to do, log or go and at least have a go at the zerg?

Well said

 

[Elendar]

if you truely like it so much i sugest excal where almost every time i've played there in the last year a milegate in odins or emain has become massivly camped and noones moved past it all night

If you don't like it I suggest Odin's or Hadrian's Wall, you should find it nice and peaceful there.

 

[Maeloch]

Dunno why but whenever i see you maeloch it puts a smile on my face

I think the fact you normally kill me has something to do with .

[Casualgamer]

Before this dissolves into FOTMvZERG Thread no.1,256,896, can I just say that the point I was making is not that one type of RvR is better than another. Merely that there has to be provision of both. Last night, Emain was the place for the average non-fotm players to have fun. It is likely to continue to be that place. For those who prefer fg v fg fighting, I seriously suggest Midgard or Albion. The fights would be harder work than Emain, because there's fewer non-fotm randoms to gank, but they would be more challenging and therefore more fun. Meanwhile those who just enjoy piling into a big fight can do that in Emain. Everyone's a winner.

 

[Tuorin]

Went to odin last night solo, stood at AMG unbuffed 10 mins, roamed on tank speed the wide open snowplains and not a sausage. AD caster group found some mids dunno if was FG, but wasn't anything else there /cry. Ended up going emain in a group and waited 5 mins while my pc loaded AMG

Hihi Matt

My main reason to play is for rvr so i honestly dont know wtf ur on about here m8.... or is it if u aint in certain alliances you can never b classed as a seriuos rvr player...... and i dont agree with zerging either (if u look at my post on prydwen.net regarding zerging)..... but u seem to have quoted my post.. fair enough but please know what ur talking about my post was regarding those who enjoyed it and those that didnt... those that enjoyed it probably did so cause they could survive in emain without getting ganked straight away...... it seemed those that didnt enjoy it were from a the leet end of the rvr players because it upsets their gameplan..... nothing more nothing less

Would love to see some more Alb groups out aye, esp your group matt And you're right, nothing more funny than having a savage sticking you not understanding why he doesn't one-hits you

So true about the lag,although it makes me smile if i'm still alive after a 30 sec freeze and the ground is covered in bodies.
Although when I do actually RvR,it's almost exclusively solo...... and that's a further way to play (hate waiting for things to start )

 

[Jupiter]

It's the "holier than thou" attitude you've had in all of your posts on this thread that he was directing his comments at.

all of my posts on this thread... hmmm only had 1 up to a few minutes ago, now this is the third, as for "holier than thou" attitude let me put it in plain english for you, if people want to zerg let them zerg, if people dont want to zerg dont zerg, it doesnt bother me if they having fun... but the people it does bother as usual flame and called it "boring", "excalibur tactics" and "crap".

If thats a "holier than thou" attitude that i like the idea that people had fun and shouldnt be knocked for it well then yeah whatever ya think yerself m8 :kissit: :kissit: :kissit:

 

[Kraben]

I had fun because it was something I havent seen before. I have the comp ( p4 2.8, 1 gig ram, radeon9800xt ) specs so it didnt got too laggy even when running 2 accounts. I had the right class there ( hunter ) with the right tools to have a blast

I can understand however that being a pure tank or an other class with no signifent ranged abillities it must have been boring.. Also people with a comp that cant handle zergs of that size without it becomes a slideshow, must have cursed it to hell.
