OF = solo action 0

I played a solo clas, I do not have much time to play, you could enter in nf 30 minutes and get some rps, now of is impossible, you lose much time waiting, for me it's not fun anymore.

I wait to teleport, when I come to you kill a fg milegate passing through there and then waiting again, so many times and I do / quit.

I'd rather the of, if I have to wait so long to find some action.

At this time I preferred to NF

There are i50 and/or PvP freeshards for instant action, you know. Just don't try to talk OF worse than it is just because it not fulfits your own play style. Fact is RvR playernumbers increased since OF, it feels like the tripple amount or more active RvR players compared to agramon a month ago.

The friends of nice instant action - which is nothind bag, in fact it is a lot of fun while in the same fact it is not Dark Age of Camelot! - should have a look at the steam-free Counter-Strike-1.5-Server of the guys of Murka Terroristka.

Brainless instant fight teleportation? And standing on a pad for 5 minutes or running to the frontier is not brainless?

Anyway I don't really mind the porting. On average it's not 8 minutes at all and if I'm waiting to port I can go get a drink, browse a forum, chat on irc etc.
I do understand that it's a lot rougher for soloers that have to run to the frontier (like hibs to emain) since few of them have acces to speed5/6 unlike most full groups. In agra getting run over by a grp wasn't as bad cause you could be back in no time. Anyway I suggest that people that complain about lack of soloing possibilities in Emain go Odins. On my live server it was always the frontier for soloers and small groups and it would be for everyones benefit if we could establish this on Uthgard aswell.

ROFL. Did people tell you to get off Uthgard when we had NF? Because you're doing the exact same thing now.

And yes, zergs always "feel" like more, it's kinda their thing.

If you don't like waiting on a port pad go roll hibs


and if you as a solo player is tired of dieing to FGs in emain, go somewhere else, I bet that in a matter of days/weeks/months 1 zone (odins or hadrians) will be full of solo / smallman grps (and maybe once in a while FGs and zergs)

I'll take that bet.

No, because everyone was expecting OF, cause, you know, this is a self declared classic freeshard.
I'm not telling him to go off Uthgard, just reminding Eclipsed that there are alternatives if he wants instant RvR or PvP. Classic DAoC never was instant action.

This topic was never about instent action, my issue was how emain is just another agramon setup. For albs and mids, its a teleport to agramon, while hibs have to run for 7 min to get to this new agramon, while they run they get to waste time running threw nice OF zones to get to emain to rvr. Id like to see all zones in at least one realms OF. With my suggestion Briefine would be the most likely Hot spot, but all zones can be used to ambush people running to briefine. Stealthers or non stealthers. Now i like the idea of going to mid or alb OF while zergs are in emain. But that will only work out if the enemys do so also. It sucks to look around for one kill, while zerg grps get most of the rps for the day. It would be nice to stick to one connected zones to rvr, with solo and grps. It would also pick up keep action, more then current setup. And now my suggestion isnt instant action, since it still takes about 2-4 min to run from there pk to briefine and find action.

But as i said, maybe in time things will improve. This is only a discussion.

That's crap, you can solo in OF too. And for the record, there are a few groups that let solos live (Zubasa's in mid for example).

I'm so and so about OF.
It attracts more players and more people to join rvr - that's the good part.
The bad part is having to deal with much more add & zerg.
The currently active rvr groups seem not to be interested in a 8vs8 zone, like hadrians or brefine, so it's just getting worse day by day.

We'll see if uthgard becomes the zerg+add-server or if it settles after a while so that all people can do the rvr they enjoy.

Also the new server hardware is hardly noticable, the lags are still bad at primetime, and thereby I mean serverlags. If you do a raid with more than 8 groups the zone seems to come down, I remember zones being able to bear more than 200 people.

great now that they have pd to get porting ... chance for a sb/inf to kill it = 0

well in this momemnt albs zerg every day since they r very very evry afraid to do 8v8 ... and none can kill 3 fg's albs since no one doesn't wanna go zerg vs zerg ... lol this isn't rvr anymore ... now really seeing 3 fg's on 1 grp is pathetic ... and also they love catching solo's and /laugh cause he was runing ... lol ... guyz wake up 1 vs 3 fg ... not even if u all were 40 and that guy was 50 tp and u all untepleted he wouldn't win ... stop doing ****** things ... so no way i prefer NF ... since in OF is zerk all time ... alb players werent zerging ... (too much) hybs usualy were zerging ... but u don't see too many hybs in emain ... and albs ... well they r too many ... in an evening there were 5 fg's albs ... 2 fg's mids ... 1 fg hybs ... and the albs were zerging (lol) not all 5 fg's but 3 ... anyway mid's didn't wanted to zerg so lol

I think one problem is that, some players may have a char they like playing in each realm, so it gives them a choice to play what ever realm is best to play at that time. Like when albs had all relics, that player would choose alb to play. And since it sucks for hib to run to emain, some may choose to play there other realm char. So we may see a decrease in one realm. On live, didnt they have it setup so that one account could only make 1 realm per server, to prevent this kinda game play. Too bad we cant do something like that, since making a new account for each realm is easy. To bad we couldnt restrict an ip to one realm. Like if you have a hib char and you log in for the first time, your only allowed to login hib, unless you could request your ip to be released to play another realm.

But hopefuly in time, players will focus on one realm, even if another realm currently has more relics or better grps at that time.
