I don't think you understand how Guildwars works.

A snippet from their website... "Everyone plays at the same level in Guild Wars 2 PvP, where skill and strategy provide players with the winning edge. All players are set to max level and given all the skills and gear they need to meet their opponents on even terms."

So everyone is same level and wearing the same gear so its all about rotation of styles?

GW2 will be superior to daoc. First, it won't require months of pve to get competetitive. secondly, taking objectives will mean something in world rvr. third it will be far better balanced. Many of the world pvp ideas I suggested to mythic 4+ years ago ( supply lines, resources, etc). Lol the chimps at mythic ignored these ideas.



DAoC requires months to be competitive?

Are you kidding me? An average player leveling through the BGs and stopping to cap out in the important ones, as well as running Cathal for a while... will be ~RR4, have 5-20p in the bank, 20k+ bps... How is that months?

You can get PLed from 1-50, start from scratch at 50 and be fully templated in tier 2 (still VERY competitive) gear in a few days.


Taking relics in DAoC is a 10% increase in damage type per relic, taking towers gives bonuses... Like... seriously... taking a keep with a few friends = keys = your first point.


The game will be balanced... because it's like WoW; every server gets the same classes/races/everything. This isn't 3 way rvr... this is three servers fighting (kind of a big difference).


Like seriously though... DAoC is the fastest MMO to get 1-cap, template and be end game ready. You don't think GW2 won't have hours upon hours upon hours of story line you will have to do to be in top tier gear? Raids? Come on man; you REALLY didn't invent the light bulb, you just couldn't find the switch.



Apparently you didn't play doac at launch lol.


There really isn't a difference between three factions vs 3 servers, except there will be far fewer balance issues. I never said I invented raids. You seriously need to learn how to read. I suggested things like supply lines, capturing resources, etc as ways to get objectives other than keeps in daoc. Not rocket science, but yes, I suggested them to mythic. Instead mythic focused on pigherding, goofy hats, op'd trinkets and other pve garbage, lol. Learn how to read. Try to keep up with the adult conversation.

Yes.

Didn't you play GW1?

Whoever had more of whatever class happened to be OP at the time won.

Actually, I did.

But we're talking now-a-days... not 10 years ago? That was a LONG time ago lol...

Additionally, you said you told mythic to:
Taking objectives will mean something in world rvr.
My point was you didn't invent these ideas; Mythic already has placed several RvR bonuses: Major Relics, Keeps, Towers, Darkness Falls, Minotaur Relics... those are all benefits to your realm for owning them...

Apparently I'm not the one who has to learn how to read... it's the cat saying I said he invented raids; instead of understanding that I was saying Objectives are already in game (light bulb), you just suggested an idea they already have (switch).

>.> Additionally, who cares about what some random internet scrub suggests to them?
"Holy shit, this angryranger fellow just told us that we need to do something! Get on it! Forget about what Devs, Testers and Mods are saying! He, alone, is saying we need to add in resources and supply lines! You know, like WAR! In fact, scrap what we're doing; let's just make this a WAR copy, with some WoW flavour, DaOC players love that."

One thing I don't like about the PvP vids of GW2 is that it seems to take like 5 minutes to even kill someone with 3 people attacking them.

Yes, and more objectives would have been better. You said raids, not objectives, lol. God no more lolhammers. On that we can agree.

No new player of any MMO wants to feel like a straw house being hit by a nuke.

Instakill = boring.

There is a middle ground and to be honest with 3 people assisting on you it should be closer to instant death for all but tank classes.

This has been the problem with every game since the release of WoW. There are classes that w.o heals (except their own) tend to last forever even with a massive assist train on them.

Since every class has the ability to heal themselves in GW2, there's a lot of that going on. You should watch some of the Korean videos that they released (Koreans loved GW1 for some reason, odd since there wasn't any space and zerglings), where in some of them you see like the main view of the person playing, he's getting lite up by like 3-4 people and he's still just trucking long, healing himself.

I don't mean to come off like an arse here (like I'm saying GW2 will blow). But it's better that I come off on the negative end than the positive end, because at least I can't be disappointed (I will most likely give GW2 an academic try).
